Toward Transcendence: A Creative Process of Performative Writing

Adrienne Viramontes

University of Wisconsin-Parkside, apositivity{at}msn.com

This essay explores the process and product of creative/performative writing. The author explains aspects of how the creative process works for her, what it can produce in terms of a finished autoethnographic document, and how the process can lead to transcendence. She uses a variety of scholarly voices to discuss the ways in which performative writing relates to Heidegger's discussion of building, dwelling, and thinking.

Key Words: autoethnography • performative writing • Chicana identity
