The contributors examine the topic a capite ad calcem , from head to toe. Chapters deal with mental and intellectual disability, alcoholism, visual impairment, speech disorders, hermaphroditism, monstrous births, mobility problems, osteology and visual representations of disparate bodies. The authors fully engage with literary, papyrological, and epigraphical sources, while iconography and osteo-archaeology are taken into account. Also the late ancient evidence is taken into account. Refraining from a radical constructionist standpoint, the contributors acknowledge the possibility of discovering significant differences in the way impairment was culturally viewed or assessed. 410 0$aMnemosyne, Supplements$v356. 606 $aMedicine, Greek and Roman$xHistory 606 $aPeople with mental disabilities$zRome$xHistory 606 $aPeople with disabilities$zRome$xHistory 606 $aMedical archaeology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMedicine, Greek and Roman$xHistory. 615 0$aPeople with mental disabilities$xHistory. 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xHistory. 615 0$aMedical archaeology. 676 $a610.938 701 $aLaes$b Christian$0732870 701 $aGoodey$b C.
