Establishing Creative Writing Studies as an Academic Discipline de Dianne Donnelly

Establishing Creative Writing Studies as an Academic Discipline

Autor Dianne Donnelly
en Limba Engleză Paperback – noi 2011
This book advances creative writing studies as a developing field of inquiry, scholarship, and research. It discusses the practice of creative writing studies, the establishment of a body of professional knowledge, and the goals and future direction of the discipline within the academy. This book also traces the development of creative writing studies; noting that as the new discipline matures--as it refers to evidence of its own research methodology and collective data, and locates its authority in its own scholarship--creative writing studies will bring even more meaning to the academy, its profession, and its student body.

Recenzii

This is a stunning challenge to MFA Programs! While critiques to the workshop method have been commonplace over the past decade, Donnelly provides a compelling argument for the creation of a new academic discipline: Creative Writing Studies. Bringing intellectual rigor to creative writing programs will do more than provide a seat at the table of literary critics and composition scholars: it will reinvigorate the workshop method and creative writing classroom. This is a must read book for anyone serious about teaching writing.Joseph Moxley, Editor, Creative Writing in AmericaIn a welcome addition to the field of creative writing studies, Dianne Donnelly has examined the theoretical bases of the prevailing pedagogies within the discipline. This book should be required reading for courses on creative writing pedagogy; for advanced students who hope to become academics in the field; and for those concerned with the future of creative writing as an academic discipline.Nigel McLoughlin, University of Gloucestershire, UKDianne Donnelly does a service to scholars in English studies by tracing in this important book the growth of creative writing scholarship, including relevant work by others alongside her own important investigation into the workshop.Patrick Bizzaro, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, USA
