Writing - Projects
Writing
Positioning:
Writing as a cultural practice/technique and as part of the media complex opens up a wide field of cultural and media-theoretical research questions. Writing includes interactions, human relationships, emotions, media conditions, etc. Particular attention is paid to interdisciplinary cooperation with institutions for cultural studies, literary studies, media studies, sociology, psychology and didactics, as well as writing centres, etc. in order to connect them even more and further a mutual exchange. With this interdisciplinary approach and the combination of emotion questions, the Centre makes an innovative contribution to writing research.
Objective:
Conceptualising new interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary models based on current writing and material research in literary and cultural studies; writing and life, language and body, analysing non-fictional and fictional texts; developing methods and terms to capture the different levels of reality and analysis that flow together in writing processes;
Study materials:
Colloquial, technical and foreign-language texts on scientific and poetics
Research Network “Writing Platform”
Susanne Knaller, Doris Pichler, Rita Rieger, Eva Gillhuber
The Writing Platform considers itself as a confrontation space in between and for a theoretical, methodological, practical and conceptual exchange on writing research, where researchers from various disciplines (digital humanities, cultural studies, art studies, literary studies, subject didactics, sociology) participate. Writing Platform thus acts as an interdisciplinary interface between the Centre for Cultural Studies, the Centre for Information Modelling ‒ Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities (ZiM), the Writing Centre and other centres of the University of Graz. The aim is to integrate different methodological models and terminology of writing research and to question and develop them in polyperspective dialogue regarding their resilience for the respective object area. For this purpose, the platform regularly organises internal and public events on key questions of writing.
