He therefore took great care to hide his polioinduced lameness both visually and verbally. In FDR's Body Politics, Houck and Kiewe analyze the silences surrounding Roosevelt's disability, the words he chose to portray himself and his policies as powerful and healthgiving, and the methods he used to maximize the appearance of physical strength. 410 0$aPresidential rhetoric series ;$vno. 8. 606 $aPhysical fitness$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aHuman body$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPeople with disabilities$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aPresidents$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aEnglish language$zUnited States$xRhetoric 606 $aPublic opinion$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1933-1945 615 0$aPhysical fitness$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aHuman body$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aPeople with disabilities 615 0$aPresidents 615 0$aEnglish language$xRhetoric. 615 0$aPublic opinion 676 $a973.917/092 676 $aB 700 $aHouck$b Davis W$01616213 701 $aKiewe$b Amos$01616214 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808742203321 996 $aFDR's body politics$93946813 997 $aUNINA
