seminar: New Histories of DisabilityR0.14 Ramphal building, University of WarwickPresentation, refreshments, discussion. All are welcome. Disability history has become established as an important aspect of the history of health. It has provided insights on how disabled people were identified and discriminated against from able-bodied-majority societies, as well as questioning various historical assumptions about ‘normality’ is constructed. As we enter a new decade, what new approaches are we likely to see, and what new questions will disability history allow us to ask of the past? Claire Shaw chairs this seminar which takes three papers from scholars at the Centre for the History of Medicine whose work contributes to these new histories of disability. Andrew Burchell will present his research into speech therapy and stammering, showing both how the condition was constructed over time and how people with stammers have had to campaign for their rights by positioning themselves uneasily between medical and social conceptions of disability. Samir Hamdoud is discussing Dr George E. Shuttleworth’s post-mortems on children and how Shuttleworth was able to operationalise forms of deficiency in childhood through an ideology of caring power. Beckie Rutherford will demonstrate how the activist group Gemma’s newsletters can be used to uncover the lives of disabled people in the past and contribute to new understandings about the intersection of disability with other identity categories such as gender and sexuality.
