This book illustrates the use of ethnography as an analytical
approach to investigate academic writing, and provides critical
insights into how academic writing research can benefit from the
use of ethnographic methods. Throughout its six theoretical and
practice-oriented studies, together with the introductory chapter,
foreword and afterword, ethnography-related concepts like thick
description, deep theorizing, participatory research, research
reflexivity or ethics are discussed against the affordances of
ethnography for the study of academic writing. The book is key
reading for scholars, researchers and instructors in the areas of
applied linguistics, academic writing, academic literacies and
genre studies. It will also be useful to those lecturers and
postgraduate students working in English for Academic Purposes and
disciplinary writing. The volume provides ethnographically-oriented
researchers with clear pointers about how to incorporate the
telling of the inside story into their traditional main role as
observers.
