TMCE8541 · Theology and Ministry
Clough School of Theology and Ministry
This course investigates Disability Studies at the intersections of interdisciplinary subjects in the humanities, including Scripture, theology, and theological ethics. Attention will be given to the hermeneutic work of Disability Studies and considerations in scripture studies, theology, and theological ethics. The course (1) presents the history of people with disabilities (similar to feminist retrievals of undocumented stories found by reading between the lines of texts), (2) explores the move from institutionalization to rights, liberties, and self-determination, and (3) considers how theological ethics in particular calls for something radically new in the way of solidarity between people with disabilities and their normate counterparts.
