The Collaborative Body in Qualitative Research: Becoming Bodyography
Autor Bodies Collective, Ryan Bittinger, Claudia Canella, Jess Erb, Sarah Helps, Mark Huhnen, Davina Kirkpatrick, Alys Mendusen Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 noi 2023
By ‘voicing the body’, the first part of this rebellious book problematizes how the body is used/assessed, yet often silenced in academic writing. This book then fluidly moves to celebrating the body through discussing taboo topics like sex/sexuality in friendship, underwear (knickers), ageing, and death, as well as how a non-binary body moves in a heteronormative world. Through the lens of Bodyography, this book does research differently – illuminating how the body flourishes, excites knowledge, and is complicated when placed on a ‘screen’. This book celebrates a collaborative and arts-based approach. This book is a dialogue between The Bodies Collective, with dialogic resonance sections between each chapter and art pieces throughout.
This book will encourage all scholars to do research differently. Anyone with a thirst to challenge normative practices in academia and who wants research to be inspiring and playful will fall in love with this book.
N.B. Please cite the authorship of this book as 'The Bodies Collective (2023)'

Recenzii
"This is a rebellious book. It is a response-able book. It is a book that collectively refuses the timidity and the judgementalism, when it comes to bodies, which pervade the social and psychological sciences. The Bodies Collective challenges the absence of bodies, and the tendency to construe them as matter that is unspeakable, unthinkable, irrelevant, superficial and even abject, in the context of research and research writing. This book challenges that contempt for, and fear of, the body, as it develops collaborative ways of working that move beyond that familiar version of the disembodied researcher. It is thus a courageous work that the Bodies Collective undertakes here, as they map out ways of working together that are safe, engaging, intimate, erotic, playful, and mobile. Through their collaboration with each other, they map out an academic skinship that enables each, singly and collectively, to flourish, in the pursuit of new understandings that begin with the matter and mattering of intra-acting bodies." -- Bronwyn Davies. Independent scholar, Professorial Fellow, University of Melbourne and Emeritus Professor Western Sydney University, Australia
"Challenging the Cartesian legacy, this important text will alert readers to hitherto neglected epistemic possibilities. Although the idea of texts without bodies has never made sense, much writing is tacitly body-silencing, thus – by extension – body-shaming. This is strange because the body is always thoroughly textualized and textualizing, in interaction and intra-action, and the embodied other is always you. In a marvellous, ground-breaking style, this book puts voice back into bodies, where it belongs." -- Alec Grant, PhD, Visiting Professor, University of Bolton, UK
"An intimate, reflexive account of how to ‘be with’, ‘work with’, ‘stay with’ one’s body in an academic context. This book is not a simple cookbook with ready-to-go recipes on doing bodyography. It is an invitation to use some of its prompts affirmatively on the beautiful, rich methodological playfield qualitative scholars are currently creating for themselves." -- Karin Hannes, Professor in Transdisciplinary Studies and Creative Research methodology. Faculty of Social Sciences, KU Leuven, Belgium. Coordinator research group SoMeTHin’K; Curator Townsquare13; European Network Qualitative Inquiry.
"This book sparkles … it is
a delicious read/
quite a romp/ into
voicing the bodies…/ and
staying with the trouble
so
hang on to your knickers/
readers
each jewel written at an angle/
tells the truth but ‘tells it slant’ to
polyamorous academia/
we the readers/
are included on the blind date
and invited in to the friendship
between this group of scholarly oddkin
writing image/full;
seriously play/full
and deeply lyrical/
excoriating
texts together
we / the readers
become part of the resonation process
and climb inside
experiences of dysmorphia
and grief/
finding ourselves voices that
have been disquietingly silenced
in the academy/
we seem/ reading this book/ always
to have had our knickers on
backwards
read this book!
you too will explore your
response-ability
from the ache
in the small of your back
to your optic nerve/
you will laugh a lot
and cry - and sometimes sob
at / with the embodied/ poignant/ piercing beauty
of it all… so …
read this book!" -- Jane Speedy. Emeritus Professor of Education (Qualitative Inquiry) University of Bristol, UK
"The Collaborative Body unfolds like a folk dance as chapter by chapter, each participant in The Bodies Collective takes the lead in turn, sharing unique insight that centres the body/ies as origin and site of inquiry, as inquirer, as act of inquiring, while the others (readers included) witness, then respond. Aligning with post-feminist, post-modern, post-human efforts at restoring the unity and connectedness of body-mind(s), this work leads the way for a new generation of scholars who are done with pretending their thoughts and minds exist beyond their embodiment. Relatable, accessible, enabling and a delight to clap along to, from first encounter to final breath this book reads as a processual creative act, birthing the field of Bodyography into being." -- Melissa Dunlop PhD, Psychotherapist, Researcher & Writer, Collaborative Artful Narrative Inquiry Network.
"This book is a breath of fresh air, a manuscript that teaches us alternative ways of researching and collaborating, allowing us to rethink the role of bodies in academia. The bodies collective presents us with a lively methodology full of humanity, creativity and corporeality. This book teaches us to collaborate organically and to know and write about what is submerged in our bodies, teaching us ways to reach beyond words." -- Inés Bárcenes Taland, Associate Professor at Francisco de Vitoria University, Madrid, Spain.
The Collaborative Body in Qualitative Research constitutes one of the most body-centered research tools in the fields of qualitative inquiry. Packed with accessible exploratory activities and examples, The Collaborative Body illustrates methodologies of compassionate critique, international collaborations, and politically personal communions. I recommend accepting their collective invitation to become a Bodyographer." -- Tami Spry, Body, Paper, Stage: Writing and Performing Autoethnography, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Communication and Performance Studies, St. Cloud State University, USA
