Disability and the Environment in American Literature

Toward an Ecosomatic Paradigm

188 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The essays in Disability and the Environment in American Literature contribute new insights into the fields of literary disability studies and ecocriticism by placing the two fields in dialogue. The book offers readings of American literary narratives of place that expose the deep relationship between embodiment and emplacement and that explore the ways in which a scrutiny of this relationship might open up our understanding of disability.
