In today’s modern China, disabled people have much to teach us about how to face challenges in everyday life. This unique perspective has been explored by Prof. Sarah Dauncey, our first guest from the University of Nottingham UK. Sarah has been visiting and studying China for over 30 years and has pioneered a new field relating to disability in modern Chinese culture. An underexplored area of study, Sarah’s work has focused on the development of new ways of understanding disability in anon-Western context.

In this episode, Sarah joins us to discuss her British Academy-funded project entitled 'Disabled but not Useless: Disability and Identity in Modern Chinese Literature and Culture', which focuses on key figures whose lives and works have influenced the way in which disabled people are viewed and view themselves in the post-reform era. The results of this project were published in her 2020groundbreaking monograph ‘Disability in China: Citizenship, Identity and Culture’, by Cambridge University Press.

现代中国文学与文化中对残障身份的再呈现

本期节目，我们邀请到来自英国诺丁汉大学的Sarah Dauncey教授，带来她历时多年的研究项目 ——《现代中国文学与文化中的残障与身份》。该研究聚焦于一些关键人物，分析他们的生活和作品如何影响社会公众对残障人士的看法，以及残障人士的自我认知。这一研究成果发表于她的专著《中国的残障：公民身份、身份与文化》中，由剑桥大学出版社出版。SarahDauncey教授从电影、文学作品、纪录片中，梳理出1949年以来中国残障人群体的身份演变，提出全新理论“准公民身份”，重新诠释残障人士在社会中的归属与认同。
