[ecrea] New book - Film and disability

New new book “Film, Comedy, and Disability – Understanding humour and 
genre in cinematic constructions of impairment and disability” (Routledge).

The book explores the specific role of comedic film genres in 
representations of disability and impairment, arguing that there is a 
need to explore different ways to synthesise Critical/Disability Studies 
and Film Studies approaches, and that a better understanding of genre 
conventions is necessary if we are to understand the conditions of 
possibility for new representational forms and challenges to ableism.
