Disability, Media, and Representations: Other Bodies: Routledge Research in Disability and Media Studies
Editat de Jacob Johanssen, Diana Garrisien Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 aug 2022
Drawing on a wide range of case studies addressing how people can be ‘othered’ in contemporary media, the chapters focus on analyses of hateful discourses about disability on Reddit, news coverage of disability and education, media access of individuals with disabilities, the logic of memes and brain tumour on Twitter, celebrity and Down Syndrome on Instagram, disability in TV drama, the metaphor of disability for the nation; as well as an autoethnography of treatment of breast cancer. Providing a much-needed global perspective, Disability, Media, and Representations examines the relationship between self-representation and representations in either reinforcing or debunking myths around disability, and ways in which academic discourse can be differently articulated to study the relationship between media and disability.
This book will be of interest to students and researchers of disability studies and media studies as well as activists and readers engaged in debates on diversity, inclusivity and the media.

Recenzii
The international scope (spanning the US, Japan, North Korea, Germany, South Africa, and the UK) and intersectional approach to representation (i.e., representations of people with disabilities and self-representation) make this volume an important contribution to disability studies. It will be very useful in introductory disability studies classes, while it is also sophisticated enough to advance scholarship and clarify thought in the field.
Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students and faculty.
J. L. Croissant, University of Arizona, USA
Representations of disability in media are densely layered phenomena, extending far beyond a screen. This collection gives nuanced attention to the accessibility, contexts, and tropes of disability representations around the world. It enriches what we think we know, and points to areas in which students and scholars of disability and media alike could—and should—know more.
Assistant Professor Elizabeth Ellcessor, Department of Media Studies, University of Virginia, USA
This exciting, timely and readable text brings together established and emerging scholars to seek connections and, as importantly, reveal tensions between media and disability studies. The centrality of the body as a subject and object of analysis means that this book will be of interest to readers from a myriad of disciplines across the human and social sciences, arts and humanities.
