AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In the school where the authors of this article work, the requirements for award of a creative writing PhD include ‘at least one peer reviewed output accepted for publication’ (Griffith University 2017, section 8.5). This output ‘must be produced under supervision and during the period of candidature’ and ‘may be a journal article, conference publication, book or book chapter, original creative work, performance or exhibition’ (Griffith Graduate Research School 2017). During supervision, where ‘one of the objectives’ of the milestones is ‘to assist candidates to publish’, the supervisor is expected to: provide ‘advice on suitable publications specific to [the] research discipline’; be the main contact ‘to assist candidates to publish their research’; and ‘verify [to the University] that the publication meets the candidature requirement’. An area of advice particularly noted in these guidelines is the supervisor’s ability to warn against ‘predatory’ publishers (Griffith Graduate Research School 2017). In the six years since this policy was introduced, the relationship between supervisor and candidate has changed subtly, due to the fact that supervision and candidature are no longer focused solely on producing a doctoral submission, they are also aimed at academic publishing training.' (Publication abstract)

    'This Special Issue asks: what does the creative writing PhD exegesis look like today? Related questions include whether it is still – and, indeed, if it ever was – called an exegesis across all, or most, institutions; and does it still primarily exist as a separate, written document that accompanies the creative work? Representing a series of key institutions and creative writing academics across Australia, this Special Issue of TEXT draws together supervisors and candidates to reflect upon and provide rich, experiencebased accounts of what the exegesis looks like and how it functions today. One of the aims of this is to start to think about the future of the form; indeed, where the exegesis might go next.'  (Craig Batty and Donna Lee Brien : Introduction)
