Description
Explore the intersection of textual analysis and social science in this important methodological contribution. While textual analysis has often been limited to literary theorists since the 1970s, Peter Ekegren provides a new perspective for social scientists. This book addresses the tendency in social sciences to treat text meaning as fixed or to view different interpretations as simple bias or ignorance. By drawing on developments in philosophy, critical theory, and literary criticism, Ekegren reclaims the study of text reading for the social sciences. This work helps researchers understand the ways in which different readings of a single text can occur, providing a deeper level of analysis for those working within the Routledge Studies in Social and Political Thought series. It is an essential resource for understanding how theory and observation connect in modern academic research.
