CO-SPONSORED SESSION: Arts, Literature, and Religion Unit and Religion and Disability Studies Unit
Call for Proposals
Persons with disabilities are often depicted as passive or weak in many socioreligious contexts. Such depictions overlook instances where these persons actively use arts and literature as either forms of religious expression or means of religious experience. This panel will include papers that discuss how the arts and literature of various religious traditions present disability, as well as particular ways in which persons with disabilities utilize arts and literature for religious expression or experience.
