"This book examines the relationship between contemporary cultural representations
of disabled children on the one hand, and disability as a personal experience of internalised
oppression on the other. In focalising this debate through an exploration of the politically
and emotionally charged figure of the disabled child, Harriet Cooper raises questions
both about what it means to 'speak for' the other and about what resistance means
when one is unknowingly invested in one's own abjection. Drawing on both the author's
personal experience of growing up with a physical impairment and on a range of critical
theories and cultural objects - from Frances Hodgson Burnett's novel The Secret Garden
to Judith Butler's work on injurious speech - the book theorises the making of disabled
and 'rehabilitated' subjectivities. With a conceptual framework informed by both psychoanalysis
and critical disability studies, it investigates the ways in which cultural anxieties
about disability come to be embodied and lived by the disabled child. Posing new questions
for disability studies and for identity politics about the relationships between lived
experiences, cultural representations and dominant discourses - and demonstrating
a new approach to the concept of 'internalised oppression' - this book will be of
interest to scholars and students of disability studies, medical humanities, sociology
and psychosocial studies, as well as to those with an interest in identity politics
more generally"
