| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
This interdisciplinary project explores the relationship between disability legislation and cultural representations of disability, impairment, and illness in contemporary Australian literature and society after the passing of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA, 1992). The DDA and other legislation represent Australia's commitment to advancing the freedom and rights of disabled people. This project will explore how various cultural texts have responded to disability legislation by working towards authentic and diverse portrayals of this group in Australia.

| 研究実績の概要 |
For the first half of FY2022, the PI made strong progress with research activities connected to the grant. The PI collected key sources on disability issues from the State Library of New South Wales and the University of Sydney Library. During the same research trip, the PI presented a paper at the University of Queensland symposium, “Writing the Anthropocene,” organised by the Centre for Critical and Creative Writing. The PI is currently expanding on and editing their work on this presentation, with the aim of submitting a full-length article on these novels to a peer-reviewed journal in early FY2023. Another important and lengthy project that the PI engaged in during FY2022 was serving as a guest editor for Antipodes. The PI was the sole guest editor for the special issue “Disability Representation in Australian Genre Fiction: Traditional Approaches and New Directions” (vol. 36, no. 1). The special issue includes an introduction written by the PI and six peer-reviewed articles by global scholars. The PI was heavily involved in the process of finding expert academics to review the articles anonymously; assisting the authors in finetuning their work; liaising with the general editor in sourcing cover art for the special issue; and reviewing copy edited versions of the authors’ articles. Sources that the PI obtained from the University of Sydney Library during their research trip were used as references for the introduction.

理由
Progress in the second half of FY2022 was slower than the first half. Regrettably, one conference that the PI had planned to present their research on media and disability sport was cancelled due to logistical problems associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The other reason for the PI having made less progress than anticipated was due to illness. While the PI had an aim to submit two articles to peer-reviewed journals about crip aesthetics in Patricia Piccinini’s sculptures and Bradley’s Ghost Species and Tawada’s The Last Children of Tokyo, it was not possible to do so by the end of FY2022. What the PI now intends to do is to carry over surplus funds from FY2022 into FY2023, such that it may be possible to purchase additional monographs and handbooks that will further strengthen their current articles ahead of submission to peer-reviewed journals.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
The PI is currently expanding on and editing their presentation on Bradley's Ghost Species and Tawada's novel, The Last Children of Tokyo, with the aim of submitting a full-length article on these novels to a peer-reviewed journal in early FY2023. Sources obtained from the University of Sydney Library and the State Library of New South Wales will be used to continue their writing on Australian Paralympians and elite disability sport. Moreover, networking opportunities afforded to the PI during their research trip to Australia and while guest editing the special issue will enable them to gather potential keynote speakers and presenters for their planned symposium in FY2023 or FY2024.
