When looking at the development of the discursive object in Focauldian discourse analysis do we look at the language of a focus group as a collective, as if coming from one school of thought (ie) a group of opera singers or do we break this down by individual and look for the development of the discursive object by each focus group participant?

Also, any tips on how to tackle the presentation of findings for focauldian discourse analysis? alot of the literature I've found out there seems to be quite vague. I'd really appreciate any input or sources of examples anyone could offer me,

thanks, Ez.

Sorry, I have to where these glasses- I'm temporarily blinded by the rush of response

there is a great chapter on Foucauldian discourse analysis by Jean Carabine in a book called discourse as data (by Wetherall et al.)

Hi, thanks Dr!

I've had my head buried deep in the books for the past few weeks! I eventually found a few other good sources, but I'll check this one out too.
