*John M. Swales is Professor Emeritus of Linguistics at the University of
Michigan, where he was also Director of the English Language Institute from
1985 to 2001. He was faculty advisor for both the MICASE and MICUSP corpus
projects. To date, he has written or co-written over 20 books and a hundred
research articles or book chapters. His 1990 Genre Analysis (Cambridge,
1990) continues to be one of the most frequently cited works on academic
discourse, and has inspired and empowered generations of students and
researchers to** systematise** their observations about academic texts.
Other significant works include Academic Writing for Graduate Students (with
Christine Feak) (Michigan, 1994, 2004), Other Floors, Other Voices (Erlbaum,
1998) and Research Genres (Cambridge, 2004). Although officially retired,
he remains active with research projects, doctoral advising, and conference
presentations (typically plenaries). In 2011, for example, he gave talks
and lectures in England, Italy, Poland and China as well as in the U.S. In
2004, he was awarded an honorary PhD by the University of Uppsala.*
