This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2014. Across the globe, the nature of writing in the twentifirst century is coming under increasing scrutiny as technology becomes an ever increasing component of everyday life, and as measuring human output also takes hold in many disciplines. This book offers an alternative to these twin developments, providing instead many alternatives. Coming from an international set of authors with different world views, paradigms and praxes, the common theme of writing is explored with deep enthusiasism, interest in productivity and human capacity, and that leads to a polyphonic and progressive inquiry to the subject matter. Each author’s initial contribution suggest that writing as an object of study needs reimagining, be it connected to learning, knowledge creation, or artistic expression. Writing is a deeply ‘person’ centred process, and its open, transformative and multidimensional nature escaped definitions but can be understood through the metaphor of the gift.
