Section Title: Disability in Literature Section Info: Topic Section X: Disability in Literature In this course we will take a disability studies approach to popular and canonical works of literature. Portrayals of disability are rampant in literature. We will examine how writers have made use disability to drive narrative, symbolize moral failures, and rationalize experimental style. As we look at more contemporary texts, we will examine the disability rights community’s reaction to, and appropriation of, the portrayal of disabled characters. Texts include Jane Eyre, Oedipus Rex, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time.
