Disability in the Ottoman Arab World, 1500-1800

Physical, sensory, and mental impairments can influence an individual's status in society as much as the more familiar categories of gender, class, religion, race, and ethnicity. This was especially true of the early modern Arab Ottoman world, where being judged able or disabled impacted every aspect of a person's life, including performance of religious ritual, marriage, job opportunities, and the ability to buy and sell property. Sara Scalenghe's book is the first on the history of both physical and mental disabilities in the Middle East and North Africa, and the first to examine disability in the non-Western world before the nineteenth century. Unlike previous scholarly works that examine disability as discussed in religious texts such as the Qur'an and the Hadith, this study focuses on representations and classifications of disability and impairment across a wide range of biographical, legal, medical, and divinatory primary sources.

Histories of disability and emotions
Reclaiming pain, agency, and intersectionality

This volume shows how emotions have not merely accompanied disability but fundamentally shaped its history. From early modern pain narratives to twentieth-century activism, its chapters reveal how feelings like joy, fear, anger and pride have defined the lived experience of disability and influenced how others have represented it. Exploring intersections with race, gender, caste, and labour, the book emotional worlds, ranging from enslaved men in the nineteenth-century United States to schoolchildren in colonial India. It shows how disabled people have reclaimed emotional expression as a source of agency and resistance, transforming pity into protest and isolation into solidarity. Drawing on rich case studies across continents and centuries, the volume reframes disability as an affective experience deeply embedded in social power, cultural meaning, and historical change. It urges us to rethink the stories we tell about bodies, emotions and belonging.
