Writing for Publication: Liminal Reflections for Academics

Editat de Georgina Tuari Stewart, Nesta Devine, Leon Benade
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 feb 2022
This book focuses on academic writing and how academics who are experts in their fields can translate their expertise into publishable form. The magnitude and speed of the changes that are transforming the global academic landscape produce an ongoing need for literature that interprets the nature of academic work. This book arises from the background discipline of Education, which is a relatively new university subject that draws on the entire knowledge spectrum from the fine arts to the natural sciences. Each chapter addresses an aspect of the conditions of written academic labour in an age of digital publishing: its nature, how it works, and guidance for successful navigation. This book will provide helpful guidance to graduate students, researchers and teachers in universities and higher education, who are united by the challenges of this new world of academic publishing.

Recenzii

“The volume also offers commentaries on approaches to scholarly writing. … The chapters illuminate productive ways forward for readers committed to considering their power and their places … within the broader scholarly ecosystem. By offering pathways of empowerment and of resistance, as well, the chapters reward readers outside New Zealand or Australasia with a sense of progressivism that repositions the antipodes as an intellectual centre, at least as far as writing for scholarly publication is concerned.” (Steven E. Gump, Journal of Scholarly Publishing, Vol. 53 (4), October, 2022)
“The book holds its own as a surprisingly engaging read which gives you a real insight into the reality of academic writing and publishing. On another level, the book itself stands as a model for academic writing in the twenty-frst century and how to navigate the pressures placed on researchers.” (Taylor Alexander Hughson, New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, Vol. 56, 2021)

This book focuses on academic writing and how academics who are experts in their fields can translate their expertise into publishable form. The magnitude and speed of the changes that are transforming the global academic landscape produce an ongoing need for literature that interprets the nature of academic work. This book arises from the background discipline of education, which is a relatively new university subject that draws on the entire knowledge spectrum from the fine arts to the natural sciences. Each chapter addresses an aspect of the conditions of written academic labour in an age of digital publishing: its nature, how it works, and guidance for successful navigation. This book provides helpful guidance to graduate students, researchers and teachers in universities and higher education, who are united by the challenges of this new world of academic publishing.

There is no question that this book opens up new conversations about the diversity of genresin academic writing: genres following a pluralistic view, not necessarily following the rules, and supporting that there is no right way for academic writing! Many examples in the book encourage the Foucault notion of ‘resistance’ by being honest and true to one’s self in writing, whilst acknowledging that we stand on the shoulders of giants before us. Several chapters encourage writing that has “more to do with the heart, the body, the spirit” (Schoone, Chapter 5) and becoming more affective as researchers and writers. The book is replete with examples appreciating and encouraging creation of new ways. Such ways suggested might involve stepping over boundaries (liminality), addressing impostor syndrome tendencies, embracing an evolving and fluid writing identity through adopting practices like contemplative inquiry and creative molecular thinking, and valuing collaboration at a discursive level to encourage openness to learning via shared understandings and considering different viewpoints. The diversity of genre that are explored (with outstanding examples in many chapters) include: post-qualitative inquiry and poststructuralist philosophies working together with the principles of New Zealand indigenous Kaupapa Māori theory using ‘writing as a method of inquiry’ for radical ideas and political aspirations; poetry as academic text; experiential exploration through art critique; and ‘truth telling’ -  being able to tell others how the writer experiences life using the context of music and meditation as an example. No matter what genre is adopted, the final chapter in the book offers sound, practical, advice about pitfalls and opportunities with writing in the digital economy.”  (July, 2020) – Eileen Piggot-Irvine, Adjunct Professor Griffith University, Australia and Royal Roads University, Canada
