DSST 1 - (IS) Introduction to Disability StudiesSemester Hours: 3
An introduction to the field of Disability Studies. Disability Studies approaches
disability not as an individual tragedy or a medical problem but as a cultural
construct-akin to gender and race-that undergirds social practices and cultural
representations in various media. This course draws on various disciplinary perspectives
to understand the broad and complex phenomenon of disability in historical perspective,
as represented in literature and culture, and as it impinges on issues of broad
public concern today.
