Narrative Universes of Disability: Global Perspectives
ISBN-13: 9789819633838 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 245 str.
This volume explores and critically examines how disability is communicated to and comprehended by individuals and societies, focussing on the shaping of these narratives within diverse disciplinary environments, and their interrelation with institutions like academia. It delves into the intersection between disability and several new areas of study, such as translation studies, citizenship, inclusive design and accessibility, thereby broadening the scope of the discipline of disability studies. The volume highlights how disability embodiment shapes narrative structure, and challenges deeply entrenched ableist stratifications, hegemonies and hierarchies that prevail in the humanities and social sciences. It examines the theoretical, methodological and ethical narratives of human embodiment and disability by bringing together papers from various parts of the globe, from multiple disciplinary perspectives, focusing on diverse time segments, and dealing with different kinds of disability. Read together, the contributions to this volume reevaluate how disabled body-minds have been historically devalued down the ages, suggesting new ways of understanding/re-thinking this oppression and marginalization. This anthology is a valuable resource for students and researchers in cultural and critical disability studies.
