Considering a wide range of early modern texts, performances and artworks, the essays in this collection demonstrate how attention to the senses illuminates the literature, art and culture of early modern England. Examining canonical and less familiar literary works alongside early modern texts ranging from medical treatises to conduct manuals via puritan polemic and popular ballads, the collection offers a new view of the senses in early modern England.The volume offers dedicated essays on each of the five senses, each relating works of art to their cultural moments, whilst elsewhere the volume considers the senses collectively in particular cultural contexts. It also pursues the sensory experiences that early modern subjects encountered through the very acts of engaging with texts, performances and artworks. This book will appeal to scholars of early modern literature and culture, to those working in sensory studies, and to anyone interested in the art and life of early modern England.An electronic edition of this book is freely available under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND) licence.

How Christian Communities Can Better Engage Disability JusticeMuch of the church has forgotten that we worship a disabled God whose wounds survived resurrection, says Amy Kenny. It is time for the church to start treating disabled people as full members of the body of Christ who have much more to offer than a miraculous cure narrative and to learn from their embodied experiences.Written by a disabled Christian, this book shows that the church is missing out on the prophetic witness and blessing of disability. Kenny reflects on her experiences inside the church to expose unintentional ableism and cast a new vision for Christian communities to engage disability justice.Offering a unique blend of personal storytelling, fresh and compelling writing, biblical exegesis, and practical application, this book invites readers to participate in disability justice and create a more inclusive community in church and parachurch spaces. Engaging content such as reflection questions and top-ten lists are included."A convincing case for all Christians to do more to meet access needs and embrace disabilities as part of God's kingdom. . . . Inclusivity-minded Christians will cheer the lessons laid out here."--Publishers Weekly"A book the church desperately needs."--Sojourners

What if disability isn't a deficit to be prayed away? What if disability is divine? In My Disability Is Divine, award-winning author and disabled scholar Amy Kenny offers a dynamic theological meditation on the beauty and brilliance of disabled lives. Drawing from Scripture, history, and disability culture, she explores· ways that disability reveals divine creativity and presence;· how Scripture celebrates disabled bodyminds; and· why access, interdependence, and joy are central to the community of creation.Packed with forgotten histories, witty clapbacks, and shrewd observations, this book is a call to radically reexamine our assumptions about disability--and ourselves.Both fierce and funny, My Disability Is Divine is a necessary guide for anyone ready to unlearn ableism, celebrate the sacredness of the disability community, and catch a clearer glimpse of how we can create communities of co-flourishing.
