The Matter of Disability : Materiality, Biopolitics, Crip Affect Hardback
Edited by David T. Mitchell, Susan Antebi, Sharon L. Snyder
Part of the Corporealities: Discourses Of Disability series
Hardback
Description
The Matter of Disability returns disability to its proper place as an ongoing historical process of corporeal, cognitive, and sensory mutation operating in a world of dynamic, even cataclysmic, change.
The book's contributors offer new theorizations of human and nonhuman embodiments and their complex evolutions in our global present, in essays that explore how disability might be imagined as participant in the "complex elaboration of difference," rather than something gone awry in an otherwise stable process.
This alternative approach to materiality sheds new light on the capacities that exist within the depictions of disability that the book examines, including Spider-Man, Of Mice and Men, and Bloodchild.
