Beginning Research

The topic I chose is mental disabilities: roles the mentally disabled have played in literature over time. I decided to research characters with mental disabilities in works of literature and reject authors with mental disabilities unless their works consist of disabled characters. I have taken steps to start this project by going to the librarian Mrs. Geller for assistance and searching the web for the best work about a disabled character. I have not chosen a set work to research yet, but am narrowing down my choices.
