Expanding the definition and use of literacies beyond verbal and
written communication, this book examines contemporary literacies
through action-focused analysis of bodies, places, and media. Nexus
analysis examines how people enact and mobilize meanings that are
largely unspoken. Wohlwend demonstrates how nexus analysis can be
used as a tool to critically analyze and understand action in
everyday settings, to provide a deeper understanding of how
meanings are produced from a mix of modes in daily social and
cultural contexts. Organized in three sections-Engaging Nexus,
Navigating Nexus, and Changing Nexus-this book provides a roadmap
to applying nexus analysis to literacy research, and offers tools
to enable readers to compare methods across contexts. Designed to
help readers understand the theoretical and methodological
assumptions and goals of nexus analysis in classroom and literacy
research, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the
theory, framework, and foundations of nexus analysis, by using
multimodal examples such as films and media, artifacts, live action
performances, and more. Each chapter features consistent sections
on key ideas and methods, and a description of procedures for
replication and application.
