Texual Analysis

Like any of the research methods, does have weaknesses in potential of displaying bias on the part of the researcher and CAN'T get at "basic truths" as discussed in class. I like the idea of using this for graphic displays and art, as it seems a little more conducive to analyzing these types of elements and discourse.

There were some questions about terms with textual vs content vs discourse analysis, but I really think it depends on your specific discipline or on the sources you draw on in your study and lit review. I don't get too caught up with these terms b/c they can really change based on the discipline...more later.
