Abstract | 近世の伝聞記録の一つである「耳嚢」を対象に、現代でいう障害をめぐる当該時代の認識を考える素材を提供し、それをめぐる論点を提示したい。本書の編者は江戸幕府の役人だが、民俗世界にも至る広い好奇心を持つ。このゆえか近代以降に障害として認識される事象も記録する。前近代までを射程にする障害の定義化は難しい。ここでは、治癒困難と思われていた不治とされる病気も、常態とはみなされていない身心や精神の状態とともに、...障害と捉える。異常性や道徳性が障害認識に結びつく可能性も指摘する。医学的な知識が不十分な時代では重篤な病気や身心の異常性が特別視されていたろうし、障害者を親族で扶養することが一般的であった環境では、孝を軸とした道徳心の厚薄が、その実態に照らし捉えられていた。このように前近代の障害概念を広げて観察し、その認識のあり方を考えるのは、試みるべきだろう。 This paper will focus on one of the hearsay records of the early modern period, “MIMIBUKURO (耳袋). I would like to provide material for thinking about disability in the Edo period and present a discussion point. The editor of this book is an official of the Edo shogunate, but he is also curious about the folk world. For this reason, he also records events that were recognized as disabilities after the modern era. It is difficult to define a disability that takes into account the pre-modern period. In this paper, we consider disabilities as physical and mental conditions that are not considered normal, as well as illnesses that were thought to be difficult to cure. It also points out the possibility that abnormality and morality were associated with the perception of disability. In a time when medical knowledge was inadequate, serious illnesses and physical abnormalities would have been singled out for special consideration. In an environment where it was common for disabled persons to be supported by relatives, moral thick and thin would have been perceived in accordance with the reality of their dependence. Thus, this paper aims to observe the premodern concept of disability from a broader perspective.show more |
