The aim of the Special Issue is to contribute to the development of humanistic analyses of disability, especially from a philosophical perspective (Cureton, Wasserman, 2020). It also aims to defy the only already established connection between Philosophy and disability, which is Bioethics. Whereas Bioethical analysis certainly has a profound impact on the lives of disabled people and represents a welcomed topic, we also want to emphasise that disability does not concern exclusively this field of philosophical inquiry. Because disability is not simply a clinical category, it can be fruitfully explored by different philosophical areas as well (Monceri 2017; Tremain 2013).
