This landmark volume for neurodiversity studies introduces a new, more inclusive field of scholarship for literary and cultural studies. Bringing together scholars and writers from across Europe, it explores the revolutionary potential of neurodivergent scholarly practice and demonstrates that there is no such thing as a 'normal' response to cultural production. Drawing on critical disability studies to highlight the ideology behind dominant notions of ability, it moves beyond representations of neurodivergent characters and highlights the entanglement of sensory and cognitive difference with both cultural practices and social status. Combining the recent turn towards psychiatric depathologisation with insights from feminist, queer, intersectional and critical race theory, this volume aims to amplify the epistemic authority of those who have been subject to marginalisation because of the ways we are taught to read, and value literary culture. In essence, this volume reveals what it means to read, write and love literature and the arts as a neurodivergent person.
Jenny Bergenmar is a Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Louise Creechan is a Wellcome Early Career Fellow at Durham University, UK. Anna Stenning is an Honorary Fellow at Durham University, UK
