Encountering the Text

Last, but not least! This five-page excerpt from Lindsey’s conclusion is optional reading. We recommend it highly, however, for much of our approach to disability in this workshop has been shaped by the questions and provocations raised here. 

  • Bellee and Simone think Lindsey is a visionary scholar! How do you see her field-building and sketching possible futures for premodern disability studies here?
