Dramatizing Blindness: Disability Studies as Critical Creative
Narrative engages with the cultural meanings and movements of
blindness. This book addresses how blindness is lived in particular
contexts-in offices of ophthalmology and psychiatry, in classrooms
of higher education, in accessibility service offices, on the
street, and at home. Taking the form of a play written in five
acts, the narrative dramatizes how the main character's blindness
is conceived of in the world and in the self. Each act includes an
analysis where blind studies is explored in relation to disability
studies. This work reveals the performative enactment of blindness
that is lived in the public as well as in the private corners of
the self, demonstrating how blindness is a form of perception.
Devon Healey's work orients to blindness as a necessary and
creative feature of the sensorium and shows how blindness is a form
of perception.
