DB writes: BOOK OF THE MONTH
Passion and politics: Academics reflect on writing for publication by E. Carnell, J MacDonald, Bet McCullum and M. Scott. London: Institution of Education, 2008.
This fascinating book, which has just been published contains interviews with 18 academics at the London Institute of Education about their writing practices. What they say is strongly framed by the editors in terms of themes like: becoming a writer, managing time, imagining the reader and the two themes of the title, their passion for writing and the politics of writing. Gunther Kress and Jan Blommaert are two of the academics who provide glimpses into their lives. The editors, who unfortunately reveal nothing about themselves, provide lots of ideas on how to carry out such interviews and for further projects.
