The Journal of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era published my article, "Sound Citizenship: Hearing and Speech Disabilities in World War I." I am very grateful for the attention and care that the journal gave throughout this process.

is already much easier to make, as, in addition to human remains, we also have texts & inscriptions, iconography, status, objects, etc. ~nd

Many historians worked studied it since the 95', you can have a little bibliography here: menestrel.fr/?-Handicap-&lang=

Those studies are mainly focusing on significant cases, such as for prehistoric times, showing disabled people's agency, but historians begin to draw more general features from them.
