Re: Dark's Ph.D thesis?
Hi Enes.
Glad you actually thought there was some point to this, I confess as I said I'm mildly jaded on the hole thing.
In terms of the language, its more that people have mentioned to me that they found it a bit impenetrable. After Spinoza or some of the stuff I had to study on metaphysics its not too bad, indeed the ones I find worse are those who I mentioned in the book review who have such giant axes to grind they've fallen off the planet, I even once remember one lecture from someone who honestly claimed that nobody with a disability suffered any issues at all, and disability was just a "different way experiencing the world", quite an amusing statement, especially from a woman who was not herself disabled but apparently new lots of deaf people .
Glad you liked the effort idea though, it sort of amazes me nobody has ever looked at disability in terms of quality of life previously, even though a lot of legal definitions and literature mention it without any sort of formal understanding behind it.
i will admit I have now come to the conclusion that talk about disability is pretty damn pointless, because the world is intrinsically run by bastards who don't give a rat's rear about making any access changes unless it might make their own political gang look good, but hay at least I got the chance to say something vaguely sensible even if nobody really cares about listening.
Btw if your interested in blindness generally, Simon Hayho who was my final invigilator did write a pretty good book on the subject, I mentioned it in the final book review section.
That's why now I'm actually working on writing fiction instead, since at least people read fiction, and if I make any points about ethics or experience in stories, people are far more likely to actually take a bit of notice, that and of course writing fiction is a lot more fun .
