The chapters cover research methods familiar to English scholars such as textual analysis, as well as those less commonly explored such as visual and quantitative methods, which also contribute significantly to research in English Studies. Other approaches discussed include auto/biographical methods, discourse analysis, interviewing, archival methods, ethnographic methods, oral history, creative writing as a research method, and research using information and communication technologies (ICTS).Key FeaturesOpens students minds to alternative research methodsIntroduces the research methodological vocabulary essential for describing methods used in a thesis and submitting good funding applicationsIntroduces debates surrounding the methods, encouraging professional development and engagement with the overall research context in nineteenth- and twentieth-century English StudiesOffers concrete examples of how methods might be used in English research"Research methods for the arts and humanitiesEnglish literatureResearchMethodologyHandbooks, manuals, etcLiteratureResearchMethodologyHandbooks, manuals, etcEnglish literatureResearchMethodologyLiteratureResearchMethodology820.721Griffin Gabrieleauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut930724Griffin GabrieleMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQUK-BiUCEBOOK9910788934003321Research methods for English studies3686104UNINA
