[ecrea] New book - Film and disability

Mon Sep 03 17:34:19 GMT 2018



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.
