The case study has proved of enduring interest to all Western
societies, particularly in relation to questions of subjectivity
and the sexed self. This volume interrogates how case studies have
been used by doctors, lawyers, psychoanalysts, and writers to
communicate their findings both within the specialist circles of
their academic disciplines, and beyond, to wider publics. At the
same time, it questions how case studies have been taken up by a
range of audiences to refute and dispute academic knowledge. As
such, this book engages with case studies as sites of
interdisciplinary negotiation, transnational exchange and
influence, exploring the effects of forces such as war, migration,
and internationalization. Case Studies and the Dissemination of
Knowledge challenges the limits of disciplinary-based research in
the humanities. The cases examined serve as a means of passage
between disciplines, genres, and publics, from law to
psychoanalysis, and from auto/biography to modernist fiction. Its
chapters scrutinize the case study in order to sharpen
understanding of the genre's dynamic role in the construction and
dissemination of knowledge within and across disciplinary,
temporal, and national boundaries. In doing so, they position the
case at the center of cultural and social understandings of the
emergence of modern subjectivities.
