Volume 2
Huemer, B. et al. (2020). Schreibwissenschaft – eine neue Disziplin. Diskursübergreifende Perspektiven. (Schreibwissenschaft; Band 2). Vienna: Böhlau. The second anthology in this series is the result of a symposium, which was held at the Alpen-Adria University in Klagenfurt, Austria in May 2019 in co-operation with the University of Luxembourg. The book presents theoretical and methodological approaches to academic writing in German from various disciplines. It is devoted to the question of how far academic writing can establish itself as an (inter-)discipline for academic contexts.
