With worldwide, seismic shifts taking place in both the contexts and terrains of universities, and subsequently the altering of what it means to write as an academic and work in academia, the editors and contributors use writing to position and re-position themselves as academics, thinkers and researchers.

“This book is a breath of writing-fresh-air. Written with freedom and courage, and curated with imagination and energy, the book’s contributors invite the reader to think and write otherwise. They conjure new possibilities for writing as they consider its place within, beyond, and in resistance to, the academy. At once lyrical and political, theoretical and raw, this gorgeous collection is a welcome, urgent, vital intervention.” (Professor Jonathan Wyatt, University of Edinburgh, UK)

“This book fulfills a much needed gap in research about the complexity of academic identity construction. By exploring the notions of writing as performance, different perspectives come to light to show the ever changing landscapes academics navigate as they move between multiple roles and shifting contexts.” (Professor Susanne Garvis, University of Gothenburg, Sweden)
