Le rappresentazioni dei corpi straordinari. L'estetica della disabilità nella musica moderna

Emerging of disability as a field of research within the humanities and music follows a path that has previously been traced by studies of gender, race and ethnicity. The contribution of Joseph Straus, a professor at the City University of New York and author of numerous analytical studies on music and disability as cultural practice, is included in The Oxford Handbook of Music and Disability Studies edited by Blake Howe, Stephanie Jensen-Moulton, Neil Lerner and Joseph Straus. They offer a collection of the most recent intentions by scholars to consider the theory and frameworks proposed by Disability Studies.
