For this research I will be using combinations of poetic<\/strong> and performative inquiry <\/strong>to analyse my field notes and transcripts from participant interviews. This means that participant quotes and observations will be arranged in the form of data poems<\/strong> and dramatic scripts<\/strong>, with a view to using these as a way to disseminate findings for Phase Two of the Creative Club. This page provides a brief introduction to what these modes of inquiry might look like in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poetic Inquiry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

I had in mind writing sociologies which displayed how meaning was constructed, and which were helpful to people, and not boring.<\/p>\nLaurel Richardson <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Poetic inquiry<\/strong> can encompass many different forms and approaches. Sometimes the poetry is researcher-voiced<\/em>, as a way to make sense of data from fieldwork observations. Sometimes the poetry is participant-voiced<\/em>, using direct quotes from informants, which are then arranged in a poetic way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monica Prendergast (2009) gives a comprehensive review of poetic inquiry as method. To synthesise her findings, she wrote a poem entitled “Poetic Inquiry Is…”. This poem is a short and accessible introduction to the intent and purpose of poetic inquiry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fern\u00e1ndez-Gim\u00e9nez, Jennings and Wilmer (2019) have written a series of brief case studies, showing how poetry has been used as a research method in natural resource science. They give examples of researcher-voiced<\/em> and participant-voiced<\/em> approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read my poem below, which provides an example of literature-voiced<\/em> poetry. Here I use found text from the UKRI Cross Research Council Responsive Mode Pilot Scheme<\/a> to express recent ideas about interdisciplinarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performative Inquiry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

I believe that dramatic action is the baseline <\/em>for interpreting what people say and do. People act on <\/em>the world, we don’t just move along with it.<\/p>\nH. Lloyd Goodhall<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are many ethnographers who turn their fieldnotes and interview transcripts into dramatic scripts, which may or may not be realised as a live performance. This approach is sometimes referred to as ‘ethnodrama’ or ‘ethnotheatre’. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some performances involve the research participants as the performers, whilst other productions use professional actors to enact the ethnodrama. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
