Establishing Creative Writing Studies as an Academic Discipline. New Writing Viewpoints
Donnelly, Dianne
Multilingual Matters
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. The book is divided into three parts: Section 1: A Taxonomy of Creative Writing Pedagogies; Section 2: The Writing Workshop Model; and Section 3: The Academic Home of Creative Writing Studies.
