Summary

Emeritus Professor Roxanne Doty from Arizona State University has transitioned from academic writing as a Politics and Global Studies specialist to creative writing as a published poet and novelist. During her academic career, Professor Doty's work on anti-immigrantism and human rights and ethics informed a growing discontent with the kind of sanitised academic writing that was prominent in political science. This is the story of Roxanne Doty reclaiming a creative voice first within her academic writing and ultimately outside of academia as a published poet and novelist. This extended podcast version includes a further discussion of autoethnography as a method in academic writing, and more on Professor Doty's approach to creative writing and her debut novel Out Stealing Water.
