Hi everyone,
Finding Australia's Disabled Authors Online Symposium
25-7 September
From short-statured Rocca in Katharine Susannah Prichard’s Haxby’s
Circus to autistic Don Tillman in Graeme Simsion’s Rosie series,
Australian literature frequently relies on representations of disabled
people for narrative intrigue. Yet, regardless of how nuanced such
representations may be, they cannot substitute for the experiences of
Australian disabled authors who, in contrast, are often marginalised or
erased. Through poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, these authors continue
to demonstrate the complex reality of impairment and of being disabled
in Australia.
This free, online symposium aims to highlight these complexities in
eight sessions across three days. With a focus on intersectionality,
presenters will discuss the writing processes and publishing experiences
of current and previous Australian disabled authors.
This event will be captioned and Auslan-interpreted.
