This chapter is about ways to insert drawing and comics organically in social analysis, ways in which a research project can be informed from the beginning by the specific affordances of drawing and comics as narrative drawings. That is, how the specificity of narrative drawing – sequential drawings in combination with words, including a narrative dimension and a spatial unfolding highlighting a relational dimension – can inform a whole project. In particular, how its display of the tension between verbal and visual narration, between object-based and relation- or practice-based logic can be used not only in gathering research material and developing rapport with research participants, or in engaging the audience, but also from the very beginning when formulating a problem or question, as well as in analysis and giving shape to interpretation.

Abstract
This chapter is about ways to insert drawing and comics organically in social analysis, ways in which a research project can be informed from the beginning by the specific affordances of drawing and comics as narrative drawings. That is, how the specificity of narrative drawing – sequential drawings in combination with words, including a narrative dimension and a spatial unfolding highlighting a relational dimension – can inform a whole project. In particular, how its display of the tension between verbal and visual narration, between object-based and relation- or practice-based logic can be used not only in gathering research material and developing rapport with research participants, or in engaging the audience, but also from the very beginning when formulating a problem or question, as well as in analysis and giving shape to interpretation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
