Embodied inquiry is the process of using embodied approaches in order
to study, explore or investigate a topic. But what does it actually
mean to be 'embodied'? This book explores why and how we use our
bodies in order to research, what an embodied approach brings to a
research project, and the kinds of considerations that need to be
taken into account to research in this way. We all have bodies,
feelings, emotions and experiences that affect the questions we are
interested in, the ways in which we choose to approach finding out the
answers to those questions, and the patterns we see in the data we
gather as a result. Embodied Inquiry foregrounds these questions of
positionality and reflexivity in research. It considers how a project
or study may be designed to take these into account and why multimodal
and creative approaches to research may be used to capture embodied
experiences. The book offers insights into how to analyse the types of
data emerging from embodied inquiries, and the ethical considerations
that are important to consider. Accounting for the interdisciplinary
nature of the field, this book has been written to be a concise primer
into Embodied Inquiry for research students, scholars and
practitioners alike.
