AI-generated Review of “Embodied Rhetorics”:
Snippets and Summary:
At first glance, Simi Linton's call to "reassign" a sociopolitical meaning to disability might seem to be an example of postmodernist social (re)construction at its most excessive, identity politics carried to an extreme, language presuming to alter fact.
"Embodied Rhetorics" Description:
Open Data:
Presenting thirteen essays, editors James C. Wilson and Cynthia Lewiecki-Wilson unite the fields of disability studies and rhetoric to examine connections between disability, education, language, and cultural practices. Bringing together theoretical and analytical perspectives from rhetorical studies and disability studies, these essays extend both the field of rhetoric and the newer field of disability studies.The contributors span a range of academic fields including English, education, history, and sociology. Several contributors are themselves disabled or have disabled family members. While some essays included in this volume analyze the ways that representations of disability construct identity and attitudes toward the disabled, other essays use disability as a critical modality to rethink economic theory, educational practices, and everyday interactions. Among the disabilities discussed within these contexts are various physical disabilities, mental illness, learning disabilities, deafness, blindness, and diseases such as multiple sclerosis and AIDS
