Titre: Difference and Disability in the Medieval Islamic World Condition: Neuf Sous titres: Blighted Bodies Auteur: Kristina Richardson Format: Poche EAN: 9780748695881 ISBN: 9780748695881 Genre: Society & Culture Sujet: Social Sciences Année de publication: 2014 Date de publication: 2014-08-31 Description: This title outlines the complex significance of bodies in the late medieval central Arab Islamic lands. Did you know that blue eyes, baldness, bad breath and boils were all considered bodily 'blights' by Medieval Arabs, as were cross eyes, lameness and deafness? What assumptions about bodies influenced this particular vision of physical difference? How did blighted people view their own bodies? Through close analyses of anecdotes, personal letters, biographies and autobiographies, erotic poetry, non-binding legal opinions, diaristic chronicles and theological tracts, Kristina Richardson brings the cultural views and experiences of disability and difference in the medieval Islamic world to life. It investigates the place of physically different, disabled and ill individuals in medieval Islam. It is organised around the lives and works of 6 Muslim men, each highlighting a different aspect of bodily difference. It addresses broad cultural questions relating to social class, religious orthodoxy, moral reputation, drug use, male homoeroticism and self-representation in the public sphere.It moves towards a coherent theory of medieval disability and bodily aesthetics in Islamic cultural traditions.
