Embodiment in Qualitative Research connects critical,
interdisciplinary theorizing of embodiment with creative, practical
strategies for engaging in embodied qualitative research. Ellingson
equips qualitative researchers not only to resist the mind-body
split in principle but to infuse their research with the vitality
that comes from embracing knowledge production as deeply embedded
in sensory experience. Grounded in poststructuralist, posthumanist,
and feminist perspectives, this innovative book synthesizes current
interdisciplinary theories and research on embodiment; explores
research examples from across the social sciences, education, and
allied health; and features embodied ethnographic tales and
evocative moments from everyday life for reflexive consideration.
Each chapter offers flexible starting points for doing embodiment
actively throughout every stage of qualitative research. An
awareness of, and an active engagement with, issues of embodiment
enhances scholars' ability to produce high quality research and
enlarges their capacity as public intellectuals to spark positive
social change, particularly within marginalized communities. The
strategies offered relate to methodologies from across the entire
spectrum: from traditional qualitative methods such as grounded
theory, critical/theoretical analysis, and discourse analysis, to
arts-based research - including performance, autoethnographic
narrative, poetry, and documentary film making. Embodiment in
Qualitative Research is designed as a resource book for qualitative
researchers who want to explore the latest trends in critical
theorizing. The writing style will appeal to researchers who seek a
bridge between abstract theorizing and pragmatic strategies for
producing outstanding qualitative research, as well as to critical
scholars who want to integrate embodied ways of knowing with their
theorizing. Graduate (and advanced undergraduate) qualitative
methods students and early career researchers, as well as advanced
scholars seeking to enrich the scope and texture of their work,
will find the text inspiring and engaging.
