The authors demonstrate the range of fields in which care ethics can elucidate alternative cultural and social dynamics, including Indigenous, African American, and Asian texts, and historical eras that predate the modern medical profession. This collection is committed to drawing out the changing racial, gendered, classed, and sexual elements of care, emphasizing how care communities develop as alternatives to the heteronormative couple and the nuclear family. Drawing from the care ethics and disability theory, the work in this volume demonstrates the possibilities inherent in this new cutting-edge field.
It will be of interest to all scholars and students of disability studies, care ethics, sociology, narrative medicine, Romanticism, eighteenth-century studies, transatlantic nineteenth-century studies, film, and contemporary race studies.
D. Christopher Gabbard is professor of English at the University of North Florida, whose work focuses on the intersection of disability studies and British eighteenth-century studies. Talia Schaffer is a Distinguished Professor of English at Queens College, CUNY and the Graduate Center, CUNY, whose work focuses on gender, disability, and domesticity in the Victorian novel.
