Writing the Body [Emily Rapp Black]

Disabilities studies, medical narratives, illness narratives, narrative medicine: all of these subfields of literature and scholarship are concerned with capturing the experience of living with and within a non-normative body. We will read exemplary essays of people who approach the writing of the body in innovative ways, and we will do generative exercises that help you mine your memory and insights for stories related to the body, in whatever form it is.
