Love Letters to the Dead
This article explores the art of letter-writing, specifically to our beloved dead, as a form of autoethnographic research, pedagogy, and care work. As university teachers and qualitative researchers in palliative and end-of-life care, we review the literature and history of epistolary communications with the deceased, as a prelude to writing our own letters. John writes to his long-dead mother and Dorothy to her recently deceased spouse Patrick, …
Metaphors of loss and transition
In this qualitative research study, we have used the arts-based research methodology, Appreciative Inquiry, to conduct a broadly based thematic and narrative analysis of art, loss/transition, and healing in formal/institutional and informal/family healthcare settings. Drawing on 21 loosely structured 1-hour interviews with African, British, Canadian and US caregivers, we have identified 13 overlapping themes of loss and healing. We use these them…
Love Medicine for the Dying and Their Caregivers
We present a body of evidence for love medicine, originating in the shamanic physical/spiritual healing arts, embodying end-of-life (EOL) palliation through relationships of loving, artful witness between caregivers and receivers. We base the conclusions of our professional (doctor) and familial (spouse) practices on the practitioner/research methodology, Appreciative Inquiry , focused on life-affirming experiences, and epitomizing love medicine …
The ribbon workers as popular educators
The educational aim of this genealogical study of ribbon workers as popular educators is to expose activist and voluntary organisations, not only as generative sites of learning, but also as sites of habituated learning and stereotypical colour assumptions. This study urges popular educators and activists to reflect critically on the popular culture forms that shape their practice, especially the colour coding associated with the crusader metapho…
Back to the Future of the Service University
My work-in-process involves re-presenting the practices of the university and providing an alternative perspective to the market ‘calculation ’ of quality, which is packaged as knowledge services. The ‘bean-counting’ approach to services renders quality devoid of ‘meaning ’ (Readings, 1996; Giberson, 1999) and works to appropriate the moral connotations of service into a singular market discourse on quality. According to Sosteric et al. (1998: 3)…
Re-casting shakespeare
The executive development courses offered jointly by the Praxis Centre of Cranfield University's School of Management and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in the summer of 1999 and 2000 were the impulse for this article. I respond to the gendered implications of re-presenting and performing Shakespearean roles as a training guide to leadership and business success. My critical analysis adapts Lyotard's (1984) market performativity and Butler's (1990) …
The Languages of Edison's Light
Telling Transitions At The Table
This paper traces the transitions of first year students and other adults of the university as they partake in an intergenerational shared inquiry at a common table. My transformative research invites students, faculty, and staff to attend to (eat) and transform (digest) the moral and political encounters in successive becomings from their speaking positions at a common table. This dialogical partaking of words disrupts the market discourse of st…
Mixed metaphors for reading and writing the qualitative thesis in adult education
This paper applies narrative inquiry to the organising metaphors for reading and writing a qualitative thesis in adult education. Three perspectives are featured: methodologists and theorists; graduate students writing adult education theses; and faculty advisors who read and respond to graduate students' theses. My autobiographical account of writing two adult education theses and reading many graduate students' theses shapes my narrative inquir…
Telling transgression
This research paper seeks to re-frame student services policy-making by providing traditionally-aged university students with a speaking position in the formulation of the contractual arrangements that affect them and bind them into adulthood. My involvement as a student services educator, policy-maker, and researcher is the unifying thread throughout this inquiry. The ambiguous context of adulthood for first year students within the historical a…
