It was a year packed with unsettling events. The Panic of 1857 closed every bank in New York City, ruined thousands of businesses, and caused widespread unemployment among industrial workers. The Mormons in Utah Territory threatened rebellion when federal troops approached with a non-Mormon governor to replace Brigham Young. The Supreme Court outraged northern Republicans and abolitionists with the Dred Scott decision (""a breathtaking example of judicial activism""). And when a proslavery minority in Kansas Territory tried to |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Krankheit in digitalen Spielen hat viele Facetten - egal ob psychisch oder somatisch. Ihre Darstellung fußt dabei auf Prozessen, die gesellschaftliches Wissen zu Krankheiten aufgreifen und gemäß der Eigenlogik digitaler Spiele verändern. Ästhetik, Narration und Spielmechanik partizipieren so an Kämpfen um Deutungshoheiten zwischen der Tradierung stigmatisierender Krankheitsvorstellungen einerseits und selbstreflexivem Empowerment andererseits. Die Beiträger*innen dieses ersten Sammelbandes zum Thema widmen sich theoretischen, analytischen und praktischen Fragestellungen rund um die Bedeutungsvielfalt von Krankheitskonstruktionen in digitalen Spielen aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive. |
