David Bolt: Cultural Disability Studies in Education, Gebunden

Klappentext

Cultural Disability Studies in Education unites cultural disability studies and Disability Studies in Education in recognising education as a discourse between educators and students who examine how disability is represented across academic disciplines and curricular to language, theory, narrative, and characterisation.

Enhanced and updated throughout, this new edition combines disability studies with a selection of 10 indicative disciplines, making the case that disability studies is a great asset to many other disciplines including aesthetics, film studies, Holocaust studies, gender studies, happiness studies, popular music studies, humour studies, media studies and now including two new chapters on disability and literature and disability and radio studies. Discussions are approached via the tripartite model of disability, a critical framework that disrupts one-dimensional representations and enables complex analyses along the lines of normative positivity, non-normative negativity, and non-normative positivity.

Fully revised and expanded, this second edition will be required reading for all scholars and students of disability studies, cultural disability studies, disability studies in education, sociology and cultural studies.
