Description

Disability and Discourse Analysis by Jan Grue explores the intersection of discourse analysis and disability studies. While discourse analysis has been applied to various social issues, its methods have not been fully developed in this context. This volume bridges the gap by applying discourse analysis to central disability studies topics. It examines representations and constructions of disability in discourse, theorizes the role of language in shaping disability perceptions, and highlights the relevance of discourse analysis to disability studies. By strengthening the link between these two fields, this book contributes to a deeper understanding of disability as a social construct.
