About the Book

This book explores how ancient disability and its reception in Classics, Ancient Mediterranean Studies (AMS), and related disciplines are relevant to disabled people today.

Written by disabled and neurodivergent scholars, this book outlines the multifaceted contributions studies of the ancient world can have on contemporary Disability Studies, pedagogy, research, and activism. It addresses how ableism has impacted the disability rights movement, pedagogy, and research in Classics, as well as misconceptions about disability in the ancient world, which remain pervasive across modern scholarship. The volume highlights what Ancient Disability Studies has to offer towards modern disability activism, with studies of disability in the past posing fascinating questions for educators and disability community members today.

This book is suitable for students and scholars in Classics and AMS, Disability Studies, and Museum Studies, as well as teachers and university educators. It will also appeal to disabled people and those interested in pedagogy and disability history.
