Conceptualizing writing from a rhetorical genre theory perspective, which views writing as social and situated action, I explore meta-genres that dictate how writing is imagined and enacted in interdisciplinary doctoral programs. Using meta-genre analysis to explore how writing is imagined, talked about, conventionalized, and experienced, this chapter traces how deeply engrained and taken-for-granted assumptions about interdisciplinary writing may have significant consequences for doctoral writers. Imaginations of interdisciplinary writing as “translating,” “simplifying,” and “clarifying” that pervade talk about writing exist in contradiction with how writing is experienced by students. This arhetorical talk about writing serves to occlude the complex, situated, and deeply social negotiations interdisciplinary writers must engage in to work across disciplinary boundaries. In pointing out hidden contradictions between dominant imaginings of writing and writers’ experiences, this chapter suggests that meta-genre offers potential to facilitate a rethinking of interdisciplinary writing. As a resource that encourages writers to critically reflect on how they are situated and how this situatedness impacts their writing practices, meta-genre has the potential to be an empowering resource for doctoral writers to peel away writing’s arhetorical façade and engage in meaningful rhetorical activity.","PeriodicalId":341520,"journal":{"name":"Re-imagining Doctoral Writing","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127002061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Experimentation with fiction involves playing with different ways of telling research stories, be they stories about the data itself or about the research process. Fiction offers doctoral students different ways to speak about affect, their relationships with participants, contradictions, messiness, uncertainties, and more. I draw attention to the potentials of using fiction as a process of sharing and (de)constructing knowledge in group settings and to its value as an alternate to conventionalized forms of academic language, particularly in terms of the representation of data. In short, fictional representation provides a way of playing with the doctoral performance and a further exploration of the ways language is used to make claims, position the author, and represent the social worlds being researched. Fiction and Social Research The use of fictionalized accounts is a well-established practice in social research and is just one of a number of writing forms that contribute to the creative turn in academic writing where aesthetics and voice are of key concern. Narrative research (Netolicky, 2015); arts-based research (Chilton & Leavy, 2014); and numerous iterations of ethnography such as creative analytic process ethnography (Richardson & St. Pierre, 2005), performance ethnography (Alexander, 2005), new ethnography (Goodall, 2000), and autoethnography (Anderson, 2006) are all areas where this kind of creativity can be seen. Fictionalisation and concerns with the boundary between fiction/non-fiction can be found in a lot of these works, but as the list implies, ethnographers have had a particularly long-standing interest in it. The ethnographic novel is a genre that has its origins in the 19th century (Narayan, 1999), and it remains","PeriodicalId":341520,"journal":{"name":"Re-imagining Doctoral Writing","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132540096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several reasons to re-imagine doctoral writing are discussed. The first reason is that academic writings 1 already exhibit considerable diversity. This suggests that the conditions of possibility for re-imagining them are already in place and provide a conceptual space from which to further imagine. Second, there are epistemic reasons for re-thinking how we write, as evidenced by research on socio-semiotics. Several examples of doctoral writers who have re-imagined their writing for epistemic reasons are given. To explain how change in social phenomena is possible and how it can continue to be justified, I draw on the theory of complex permeable open systems. These systems are emergent and, as such, allow us to think of social phenomena, such as writing, as non-reductive organic unities whose characteristics emerge from but cannot be reduced to any single constituent feature (such as grammar or lexis). By re-thinking academic writings in this way, we can provide a rationale to explain how they can continue to change. The chapter concludes by sharing the work of scholars engaged in re-imagining doctoral writings. The significance for writing studies is that critical realism offers a systematic and critical space within which to explain change in social phenomena and provides a theoretical foundation for continuing to re-imagine conditions of possibility. Imagination plays a crucial role in the making of pivotal educational features and phenomena, such as knowledge, inquiry, choice and delib-eration, critical agency, meaning creation, forecasting, and, importantly, openness of possibilities.","PeriodicalId":341520,"journal":{"name":"Re-imagining Doctoral Writing","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121215144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
