A Brief Literary History of Disability is a convenient, lucid, and accessible entry point into the rapidly evolving conversation around disability in literary studies. Drawing on both literary history and disability theory, Wang’s talk will explore three key questions:
Why do we even need a literary history of disability?
What counts as the literature of disability?
Should we even talk about a literary aesthetic of disability?
