Thanks! --Jess Call for chapters: Disability in dialogue Proposal deadline (extended): Feb. 1, 2020 Co-editors: Jessica M. F. Hughes, Assistant Professor, Millersville University, jessica= [email protected] Mariaelena Bartesaghi, Associate Professor, University of South Florida, mb= [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> This is a call for an edited volume on Disability in Dialogue. We invite ch= apter proposals (1500-200 words) that employ discourse studies methodologie= s to analyze disabled dialogues and dialogues about disability for a volume= of interest to dialogue, communication, disability and discourse scholars. Everyday dialogues are consequential. Spoken, written and digital discourse= in conversations, public hearings, assessment measures, social media sites= , organizational manuals, and institutional policies defines disabilities, = grants certain bodyminds access, and excludes others. It is through dialogu= e as embodied inter-action that disability dis/appears and that disabled id= entities are constituted and that we experience ableism and manage impairme= nt. Disability is also a way of knowing. Disabled dialogues realize our und= erstanding of dis/ability and communication. As with =91disability,=92 there are many discourses of =91dialogue.=92 For = us, =91dialogue=92 calls attention to interaction (whether face-to-face, di= gital, or temporally distant), asymmetries (of knowledge, status, access), = dilemmas, tensions, problems, voices, and affective experience. Analyzing d= isability in dialogue is a method for theorizing these and other dimensions= of discourse to account for disabled ways of knowing, thinking, perceiving= , and being in the world. This collection was first conceived in light of the following questions. Ho= w might we center disabled perspectives to theorize dialogue? What sorts of= ways of communicating does disability afford? How does disability shape di= alogue and vice versa? What does it mean to identify as disabled, to claim = an experience in terms of disability, to belong within a discourse, to acce= ss a diagnosis? How does the dis/appearance of disability rearrange the pas= t, present, and future and redefine relationships and experiences? What kin= ds of moral accounts accompany disability in dialogue? What might be the p= ower of dis/ability and what sort of power is it? How is ableism constitute= d in dialogue? What kinds of dialogic moments have the most potential to di= smantle ableism and make the world a more inclusive place for all bodyminds= ? We invite chapters that raise these and other questions about disability in= dialogue. Chapters should start by defining dialogue and then offer empiri= cal analyses that pay close attention to spoken, written, and/or other semi= otic forms that constitute dialogue, in order to guide us in an examination= of the consequentiality of disabled dialogues and discourse about disabili= ty. Submission proposals are due February 1, 2020 and should include * Name(s), affiliation and contact information of author(s) * A 150 word bio * Chapter title * A 1500- 2000 word description of your proposed chapter plus reference= s Notices of acceptance will be sent by March 31, 2020.
