In its explorations of the intersections of sports writing, analysis of literary contributions and examinations of craft, it offers rare consideration of a rich diversity of form in narratives that occur in, and as creative practice. Included in the collection are dynamic academic investigations into football writing and poetry focused on community sporting activities in Afghanistan, to those addressing the intersections of writing and boxing in the reflexive reclamation of the post-trauma self, the absence of women in the rodeo and who and what is represented in our sports shelves. This book breaks new ground in approaches to sport?s role in creative writing and what creative writing can provide in furthering our understanding of sport in society. The works in this edited book draw on a diverse range of methods to interrogate the processes, concepts and liminal spaces through an intersectional array of voices, offering analysis and insight into the application of creative writing knowledge and practice in relation to sport and its impact on wider discipline discussion and research. It is relevant to students and scholars studying and researching creative writing, sports writing, sports studies, cultural studies and sports media studies. 606 $aCreative writing 606 $aCommunication in sports 606 $aLiterature 606 $aCommunication 606 $aSports sciences 606 $aCreative Writing 606 $aSports Communication 606 $aLiterature 606 $aMedia and Communication 606 $aSport Theory 615 0$aCreative writing. 615 0$aCommunication in sports. 615 0$aLiterature. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aSports sciences. 615 14$aCreative Writing. 615 24$aSports Communication. 615 24$aLiterature. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 615 24$aSport Theory. 676 $a808.066796 700 $aMcGowan$b Lee$0475135 701 $aSymons$b Kasey$01448841 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765481203321 996 $aIntersections of Sport and Society in Creative Writing$93644677 997 $aUNINA
