Ethnographic Perspectives on Academic Writing

Edición de la obra Ethnographic Perspectives on Academic Writing

"This book argues that adopting ethnographically oriented perspectives on research into academic writing is a valuable means of deepening understanding of the social influences on language use and individuals' experiences in academic writing contexts, helping to gain insider views of writers' experiences, writing practices, and the contexts in which academic texts are produced and assessed. Paltridge, Starfield and Tardy examine a range of academic writing contexts including undergraduate writing, postgraduate writing, writing for publication, and the learning and teaching of academic writing, and draw together work in the areas of English for academic purposes, academic literacies, genre studies, and writing in the disciplines."--Page 4 of cover.
