Sommario/riassunto |
|
Envisioning Embodiment in the Health Humanities: Literature, Culture, and Media examines discourses of embodiment across disability studies, gender studies, cultural studies, and visual studies to inform educational practice as well as cultural criticism related to the health and medical humanities. The book argues that imagery and other visual elements in literature, comics, lived experience and the arts demonstrate the hybridity of the embodied experience and identity and have something to offer to clinical practice. Connected to the UN Sustainable Development Goals 3 (Health), 4 (Gender equality), and 16 (Strong institutions), the topics addressed in the essays include mental health, grief, COVID-19, healthcare practices, cancer, and women’s health. The volume is designed to be accessible to advanced undergraduate students as well as graduate students and to be useful for medical practitioners and others who are interested in the health humanities, disability studies, gender studies, or cultural studies. Jodi Cressman is Professor of English at Dominican University, USA. Lisa DeTora is Associate Professor of Writing Studies and Rhetoric and the Director of STEM Writing at Hofstra University, USA. Jeannie Ludlow is Professor of English and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Eastern Illinois University, USA. Nora Martin Peterson is Associate Professor of French Cultural Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, USA. |
