Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Chronological Survey of Work for the Blind: With an Appendix on the Prevention of Blindness, and a Bibliography, From the Earliest Records Up to the Year 1930 The next thing that struck me was that to compile a history Of blind work in Great Britain alone would be like drawing a picture Of an Object without any surroundings, and so failing to get true proportion; so I decided to incorporate the main facts concerning work for the blind in other parts Of the world, with its blind population Of many millions. The history is intended to Show primarily the foundation and growth Of institutions and societies for the blind, the invention and production Of apparatus and methods for enabling them to lead happier and more useful lives, as well as legislation for their benefit. It also includes a certain amount Of what has been done by medical science to augment, save, and restore eyesight, and for the prevention Of blindness. It is not intended to be a history Of the blind men and women who have earned distinction in different walks Of life, such as the poet Milton, Fawcett the postmaster-general, and many others, including Helen Keller, a notable example Of a deaf and dumb and blind girl who reached a high standard Of learning. But I have attempted to record the names and valuable services Of those numerous blind persons who have earned distinction in ameliorating the lot Of those who suffer from the handicap Of blindness.

Download or read book Philosophy as Disability Exclusion written by Simon Hayhoe and published by IAP. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy as Disability and Exclusion examines the history of ideas on arts in the education of people who are blind in England, from 1688 to 2010. This book also examines a number of the earlier influences on the enlightenment, and the international context of this topic. The two hypotheses on which this study is based are: (1) Our understanding of blindness in English intellectual culture is less to do with homologous physical characteristics. Instead it is more to do with an ethical philosophy of human capacity. (2) The arts education of people who are blind through touch tells us much about our psychology of mythologies and the intellectual construction of human thought. Furthermore, the myth that people who are blind are incapable of visual arts and have an enhanced capacity for the musical arts is one of the most engrained modern folklores. It is part of our cultural, intellectual and philosophical conscience. In the process of investigating these hypotheses, this book argues that philosophies have linked immorality, intelligence and physical ability. These have become connected in ways that are unrelated to eyesight in order to fulfill broader cultural processes of developing social theory. In this book, the process of knowledge creation is termed passive exclusion and is analyzed through an epistemological model of examining disability and exclusion.
