Abstract
Abstract:This article offers a brief introduction to the Disability issue of Southern Cultures. It briefly recounts the contexts for disabled politics and scholarship, and then spotlights the issue's contents within those contexts. Each article in the issue is briefly discussed. Framed around the multiple methods of self-definition and community-building in which disabled people have historically engaged, Hughes calls on the issue's readers to use it as both a source of information and an impetus for further storytelling and action.
期刊介绍:
In the foreword to the first issue of the The Southern Literary Journal, published in November 1968, founding editors Louis D. Rubin, Jr. and C. Hugh Holman outlined the journal"s objectives: "To study the significant body of southern writing, to try to understand its relationship to the South, to attempt through it to understand an interesting and often vexing region of the American Union, and to do this, as far as possible, with good humor, critical tact, and objectivity--these are the perhaps impossible goals to which The Southern Literary Journal is committed." Since then The Southern Literary Journal has published hundreds of essays by scholars of southern literature examining the works of southern writers and the ongoing development of southern culture.
