Through the alternative ideas of mind and embodiment generated by physiological and psychological impairments, an understanding of disability narrative changes the way we read literature. With contributions from major figures in literary disability studies, The Cambridge Companion to Literature and Disability covers a wide range of impairments, including cognitive difference, neurobehavioral conditions, and mental and chronic illnesses. This book shows how disability demands innovation in literary form and aesthetics, challenges the notion of a human 'norm' in the writing of character, and redraws the ways in which writing makes meaning of the broad spectrum of humanity. It will be a key resource for students and teachers of disability and literary studies." -- Publisher's description 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a People with disabilities in literature. 650 7 $a People with disabilities in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01057365 650 4 $a People with disabilities in literature. $0 (OCoLC)fst01057365 700 1 $a Barker, Clare, $d 1980- $e editor. 700 1 $a Murray, Stuart, $d 1967- $e editor. 830 0 $a Cambridge companions to topics. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20181116062530.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=86066D3C580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
