Hi Kate
I'm not sure about key texts, but for my PhD I am finding many of
Shelley Tremain's ideas thoughtful and challenging, particularly in
the area of connection between disability/postmodernism and
disability/post-feminism, as I have Russell Shuttleworth's
connections between disability and aspects of anthropological
theorising, and Mairian Corker's explorations of intersections of
disability/discourse.
I don't have specific references to give you here but have posted
this to all, as I know they are somewhere on this list and may be
able to point to more specific articles for your exam. Good luck.
Cheers Carol
