Abstract:

Through Narrative Theory, the book offers an engaging panorama of the
construction of specialised discourses and practices within academia and
diverse professional communities. Its chapters investigate genres from various
fields, such as aircraft accident reports, clinical cases and other scientific
observations, academic conferences, academic blogs, climate-change reports,
university decision-making in public meetings, patients’ oral and written
accounts of illness, corporate annual reports, journalistic obituaries,
university websites, narratives of facts in legal cases, narrative processes
in arbitration hearings, briefs, and witness examination accounts. In addition
to exploring narration in this wide range of contexts, the volume uses
narrative as a powerful tool to gain a methodological insight into
professional and academic accounts, and thus it contributes to research into
theoretical issues. Under the lens of Narratology, Discourse and Genre
Analysis, fresh research windows are opened on the study of academic and
professional interactions.
