ENG 331-01 - Studies in American Prose II

4 credits (Fall)
Even the Words Have Wheels. Ableism persists despite the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990. It’s the difference that few talk about-indeed, that few think of as difference, even on the Left. This seminar will explore the life writing (poetry and memoir) of people with a broad range of disabilities. How does the physiologically distinctive body give rise to new kinds of politics and aesthetics?
