Recenzii
“In this foundational text, Gullion accomplishes the herculean task of talking about the overlooked process of ethnographic writing with an intimate tone. It is like we are seated at her desk writing along with her. Gullion uses interesting exemplars and personal examples to show the important process of writing ethnography. This text will be required reading in my research methods courses and for my graduate students because of the meticulous breakdown of writing practice that creates a text that is both useful and engaging.” —Sandra Faulkner, PhD, Associate Professor of Communication, Bowling Green State University and author of Family Stories, Poetry, and Women’s Work and Poetry as Method: Reporting Research Through Verse
“When we were in the playwriting program together at New York University, John Belluso (the brilliant queer playwright who pioneered ‘crip theatre’ in the United States, and who died far too young) and I used to go see every new show together. I’d push him home up 2nd Avenue on the East Side and we’d debrief the show we’d just seen. John’s only criterion was ever: “Did she have something to say?” Jessica Smartt Gullion has something to say, and she says it, as always, in a smart (smart by name, smart by nature), readable, and useful way. I love this writer because she does her homework, cares about her readers, and writes a damn good story. Buy this book immediately.” —Anne Harris, PhD, Senior Lecturer of Education, Monash University and author of Critical Plays: Embodied Research for Social Change and The Creative Turn: Toward a New Aesthetic Imaginary
“The art of constructing writing from research in meaningful ways that engages readers to ‘linger in the scene’ awaits you in Writing Ethnography. As Jessica Smartt Gullion empowers you to provoke and incite social change, she does so in ways that diminishes the complexities of producing public scholarship. I invite you to engage in this collaborative process aimed to healthfully enhance our craft, working to ensure that people who need our compelling stories receive them most optimally, so our efforts may favorably linger beyond words and pages.” — Miroslav Pavle Manovski, PhD, independent scholar and author of Arts-Based Research, Autoethnography, and Music Education: Singing Through a Culture of Marginalization
“Jessica Smartt Gullion’s book is “directed to graduate students and new researchers,” yet I would urge experienced ethnographers to read and to use this book in your classrooms. Gullion quotes Norman Denzin’s charge to qualitative researchers us to write social science that matters, and Gullion has done that in spades.” —Stacy Holman Jones, Professor, Centre for Theatre and Performance, Monash University and author of the Handbook of Autoethnography, with Tony E Adams and Autoethnography, with Tony E Adams and Carolyn Ellis
"Gullion acts as a gentle guide as she opens up way in which people could conceptualize and execute writing ethnographies. She writes in accessible language and argues for the importance of such intelligibility. She offers tangible examples, creates possibilities, and shares her process of writing, publishing, and even working with rejection. This is a must read for anyone who is learning about ethnography and is unsure about how to start writing. " —Kakali Bhattacharya, PhD, Associate Professor of Educational Leadership, Kansas State University
"Jessica Smartt Gullion’s new important book on ethnography is accessible and comprehensive. She carefully takes the reader through the nuts and bolts of ethnographic writing with clear examples of different narrative structures. The text is encouraging and filled with practical advice. Highly recommended for social science graduate students and qualitative research courses. "—Kris Clark, Associate Professor of Social Work, Fresno State University
"Gullion provides a comprehensive history of ethnography, describes essential aspects of ethnographic fieldwork, identifies rarely discussed issues such as writing, editing, and publishing ethnographic research and show how (and why) contemporary ethnographers can (need to) create vulnerable, creative, evocative, and socially-just tales. This succinctly and accessible text will make a fine resource for both new and skilled ethnographers. "—Tony E Adams, Associate Professor of Communication, Northeastern Illinois University and author of Narrating the Closet: An Autoethnography of Same-Sex Attraction and co-editor of On (Writing) Families
