About The Book

Intersectional Methodologies in Academic and Creative Writing edited by Nina Lykke is an insightful volume that explores the intersection of feminist and intersectional writing methodologies with academic and creative writing practices. This book offers a compelling exploration of how academic writing can engage with in-between spaces that transcend monolithic identity markers such as gender, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and nationality.

The contributors to this volume examine how such a framework alters academic writing processes and makes it more pertinent to incorporate synergies between academic and creative forms of writing. Along with offering a comprehensive theoretical backdrop, the book delves into political and ethical considerations surrounding intersectionality and writing practices.

In addition to these insights, the book includes suggestions for writing exercises designed to inspire readers to engage with alternative writing strategies. These exercises are based on the contributors’ individual and collaborative teaching practices, making this book not only a theoretical guide but also a practical resource for those looking to engage with innovative and inclusive writing practices.
