Previous work in the field of early modern disability studies has focused largely on Renaissance characters that a modern audience might view as disabled. This volume argues that the conception of disability as residing within individual literary characters limits understandings of disability in Shakespeare: by theorizing disability vis-a-vis characters, previous studies have largely overlooked readers, performers, and audience members who self-identify as disabled. Focusing on issues such as accessible performances, inclusive casting, and Shakespeare-based therapy, Shakespeare and Disability Studies reinvigorates textual approaches to disability in Shakespeare by reading accessibility as an art form and exploring both the powers and potential limits of universal design in theatrical performance. The book examines the complex interdependence among the concepts of theory, access, and inclusion--demonstrating the crucial role of disability theory in building access and examining the ways that access may both open and foreclose inclusive dramatic practice. Shakespeare and Disability Studies challenges Shakespearians, from students to audience members, from classroom teachers to theatre practitioners, to consider how Shakespeare, as industry, as high art, and as cultural symbol, impacts the lived reality of those with disabled bodies and/or minds"--Publisher's description. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 133-136) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction : theory, access, inclusion -- Cripping (and re-cripping) Richard : was Richard III disabled? -- Making it accessible : building access in Shakespearian spaces -- Play for all : Shakespeare therapy and the concept of inclusion -- Neurodiverse Shakespeares : mental disability in Still dreaming -- Afterword : the brilliant red of Shakespeare. 600 10 $a Shakespeare, William, $d 1564-1616 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Shakespeare, William, $d 1564-1616. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00029048 650 0 $a English drama $y Early modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600. 650 0 $a English drama $y 17th century. 650 0 $a People with disabilities in literature. 650 0 $a People with disabilities and the performing arts. 650 0 $a Body and soul in literature. 650 7 $a People with disabilities and the performing arts. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01057362 650 7 $a People with disabilities in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01057365 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Electronic version: $a Loftis, Sonya Freeman, 1983- $t Shakespeare and disability studies. $b First edition. $d Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2021 $z 9780192650061 $w (OCoLC)1249693176 830 0 $a Oxford Shakespeare topics. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031113.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D75F66FCAE9011EDA0B1416654ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
