However, the experiences of the many disabled people within Britain?s most dangerous industry have gone largely unrecognised by historians. This book examines the British coal industry through the lens of disability, using an interdisciplinary approach to examine the lives of disabled miners and their families.
The book considers the coal industry at a time when it was one of Britain?s most important industries, and follows it through a period of growth up to the First World War, through strikes, depression and wartime, and into an era of decline. During this time, the statutory provision for disabled people changed considerably, most notably with the first programme of state compensation for workplace injury. And yet disabled people remained a constant presence in the industry as many disabled miners continued their jobs or took up ?light work?. The burgeoning coalfields literature used images of disability on a frequent basis and disabled characters were used to represent the human toll of the industry.
A diverse range of sources are used to examine the economic, social, political and cultural impact of disability in the coal industry, looking beyond formal coal company and union records to include autobiographies, novels and oral testimony. It argues that, far from being excluded entirely from British industry, disability and disabled people were central to its development. The book will appeal to students and academics interested in disability history, disability studies, social and cultural history, and representations of disability in literature. 606 $aCoal mines and mining 610 $aInjury 610 $aImpairment 610 $aDisability 610 $aCoal industry 615 0$aCoal mines and mining. 676 $a362.4088622334094109041 700 $aBohata$b Kirsti$4aut$0905392 702 $aJones$b Alexandra$4aut 702 $aMantin$b Mike$4aut 702 $aThompson$b Steven$4aut 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacI 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996552361203316 996 $aDisability in industrial Britain$92123659 997 $aUNISA LEADER 01418nam0 22003371i 450 001 UON00217475 005 20231205103400.139 010 $a88-7119-580-9 100 $a20030730d1993 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aArlecchino a Parigi. 1.: dall'inferno alla corte del Re Sole$fDelia Gambelli 210 $aRoma$cBulzoni$d1993. 447 p.$c14 c. di tav. ; 21 cm. 410 1$1001UON00003845$12001 $aBiblioteca Teatrale$v72 410 1$1001UON00175339$12001 $aˆLa ‰ commedia dell'arte.
