Cultural Stations of Disability
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-88715-9 (ISBN)
More than being demarcations of disruption to the normative social order, cultural stations of disability sometimes pertain to its very epitome. They hold something of a moment in discourse with which identification is paramount but variously emotive. They may capture feelings of liberation to which we joyfully return, difficult memories that we revisit to ponder, or the nadir of modernity from which we can only hope to learn.
In this edited volume, an international gathering of contributors finds and defines dozens of cultural stations of disability in music, art, film, television programmes, literature, sitcom, activism, sport, performance, organisations, places, and events.
Cultural Stations of Disability: A Moment in Discourse will be of interest to interdisciplinary readers in disability studies, humour studies, media studies, film studies, television studies, literary studies, gender studies, cultural studies, popular music studies, and related disciplines in the humanities, education, and social sciences.
David Bolt is Professor of Disability Studies and Interdisciplinarity at Liverpool Hope University, United Kingdom.
