Call for Papers: Special Issue of the Journal of Literary and Cultural Disability Studies

Nov. 6, 2020 by Ian Williams

  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Pinterest

Special Issue: Cripping Graphic Medicine: Approaching Comics from a Disability Studies Perspective Guest Editors: Gesine Wegner (Leipzig University) and Dorothee Marx (Kiel University) At first glance, a wider public may find the connection between comics and disability rather counterintuitive, as Rosemarie Garland-Thomson remarks: “Most of us assume that comics and disability exist in two completely different worlds. […] Comics are light; disability is heavy. Comics are inviting; disability is forbidding. Comics are cheerful; disability is dismal” (Garland-Thomson 2016: x). Yet, as a growing amount of scholarship in recent years has shown (Squier and Krüger-Fürhoff 2020; Foss et al. 2016), explorations… Read More

I also want to use this space to apologize for the inconsistency of TWIGM throughout the Fall. I can’t promise… Read More

‘This Week in Graphic Medicine’ highlights news about comics in medicine published during the week (Saturday – Friday). Links are typically presented without commentary, unless clarification of relevance is necessary. So without further ado… Matthew’s Pick of the Week… My pick of the week is this much-needed scholarly comic – Writing medical comics – by the always great Miriam Waite. As I noted on Twitter, there has been a lot of conversation about the need for guidance on just how to develop medical comics, but thus far those conversations have led to little. Hopefully this is a change in that… Read More
