ABSTRACT

Focusing on foreign doctoral students, this study is intended to seek how to strengthen writer identity from a discoursive perspective, not from a functional perspective of literacy practices. For achieving the study purpose, this study defines intertextuality, interdiscoursivity and answerability and suggests ways of strengthening writer identity. On the premise that a writing instruction in the doctoral course is required to complete academic research papers, this study puts emphasis on making a discourse repertory through intertextual connection of discourses that crash into, writing in view of interdiscursive characteristics of academic writing and lastly, reading and writing a text in response to the demands of academia and audience’s expectations. In so doing, foreign doctoral students will be able to find their own voices, complete academic texts with their own voices and writer identity will be formed and reinforced. This study discusses the concepts of identity and writer identity and pedagogies for strengthening writer identity, based on contents from a variety of studies, such as psychoanalysis, discourse linguistics, rhetoric and genre-based approach. Although this is a trial study, it is expected that this study will help foreign doctoral students proceed with academic writing with identity as members of academia and with their own voices.
