When is the last time you just couldn't put down a book on writing—when you found yourself anticipating the next revelation, the next insight? When you found yourself getting up in the middle of the night to jot down—as if a reminder would be necessary come morn—"Why hasn't a book like this been published before?" . . . Hayot, professor of comparative literature and Asian studies and director of the Center for Humanities and Information at Pennsylvania State University, questions, challenges, and inspires those of us who contribute to the corpus of humanistic knowledge. . . . A model of its message, Hayot's book is equally germane to those who write and to those who teach scholarly writing.
Eric Hayot teaches graduate students and faculty in literary and cultural studies how to think and write like a professional scholar. From granular concerns, such as sentence structure and grammar, to big-picture issues, such as adhering to genre patterns for successful research and publishing and developing productive and rewarding writing habits, Hayot helps ambitious students, newly minted Ph.D.'s, and established professors shape their work and develop their voices.Hayot does more than explain the techniques of academic writing. He aims to adjust the writer's perspective, encouraging scholars to think of themselves as makers and doers of important work. Scholarly writing can be frustrating and exhausting, yet also satisfying and crucial, and Hayot weaves these experiences, including his own trials and tribulations, into an ethos for scholars to draw on as they write. Combining psychological support with practical suggestions for composing introductions and conclusions, developing a schedule for writing, using notes and citations, and structuring paragraphs and essays, this guide to the elements of academic style does its part to rejuvenate scholarship and writing in the humanities.
