Literature analysis & beyond

Why to do literature analysis? a. Basis of any research project: - what has been said, who said it, when and how relevant it is - what hasn't been said: “originality” of research b. Contextualise your research project in updated theoretical framework Literature Review is more than an annotated bibliography or a summary: sources are organised and presented in terms of their overall relationship to your own project.

1. Familiarise with main databases of academic articles 1.Present one possibility of building a basic, personalised reference “database” 1. Introduce some elements of literature analysis Focus on literature: aims of this seminar

2. Literature search Feedback 1. Any difficulties? Problems? 2. What's the usefulness? 3. Other

3. Literature analysis Exercise n. 2 (20 minutes) - Choose one of the articles you found in the previous exercise: 1. About the author: Who is (s)he? What's his/her main interest? Can you figure out his/her approach? Have you read (can you find) other articles by him/her? 2. About the article: - what is the methodology used? - which types of data/information/references (reliable, verifiable)? - what are the main points? - in your opinion, is there any point particularly debatable/controversial? 3. Which questions does it raise and/or leave opened?

3. Literature analysis Feedback 1. Any difficulties? Problems? 2. What's the usefulness? 3. Important issues of literature analysis “left out”?

3. Literature analysis What about doing it online? 1. Possible to organise your databases through links (easy-to- use) 2. Possible to create a cumulative, comprehensive database 3. Multimedia database 4. Give visibility to what you are doing
