Beschreibung
This book powerfully demonstrates that emotions are not just reflections of disability but active forces that have shaped its history. From early modern miracle collections to twentieth-century activist movements, Histories of disability and emotions. reveals how feelings like pain, joy, fear, and indignation defined the lived realities of disabled people and informed the narratives others constructed around them. Its chapters reclaim emotional expressions of suffering and resilience from medical, religious, and institutional archives; uncover how disability intersects with race, gender, caste, and labour to produce unique emotional landscapes; and trace how disabled activists and communities have mobilized anger, pride, and solidarity in the struggle against exclusion and pity. Bringing together rich case studies across continents and centuries, Histories of disability and emotions. offers original insights into the emotional labour of claiming identity, contesting stigma, and forging social change. More than a study of the past, the book invites readers to rethink disability through the vital, often overlooked lens of emotion - revealing how deeply our feelings matter in the stories we tell about bodies, power, and belonging.
