This groundbreaking study offers an innovative critical analysis of
poetry as a resource for reflective practice in the context of
continuing professional development. In the contemporary drive in
all professions for greater rigour in education, training, and
development, little attention is paid to the inner shape of
learning and meaning-making for individuals and groups, especially
ways in which individuals are formed for the task of their work.
Building on empirical research into the author's professional
practice, the book takes the use of poetry in clergy continuing
ministerial development as a case-study to examine the value of
poetry in professional learning. Setting out the advantages and
limitations of poetry as a stimulant for imaginative, critical
reflexivity, and formation within professional reflective practice,
the study develops a practical model for group reflection around
poetry, distilling pedagogical approaches for working effectively
with poetry in continuing professional development. Drawing
together a number of strands of thinking about poetry, Practical
Theology, and reflective practice into a tightly argued study, the
book is an important methodological resource. It makes available a
range of primary and secondary sources, offering researchers into
professional practice a model of ethnographic research in Practical
Theology which embraces innovative methods for reflexivity and
theological reflection, including the value of auto-ethnographic
poetry.
