This project will study the urban history of disability at home in London from 1840-1945. Based at the Centre for Studies of Home, a partnership between Queen Mary and the Museum of the Home, it will be the first research project to analyse the museum's collections in relation to disability. The research will make an original contribution to broader debates about home, housing, disability and the city through its analysis of the lived experience and spatial politics of home for people living with physical and cognitive disabilities in the century before the founding of the National Health Service. The project will recover the ways in which home and domesticity were experienced by people with various kinds of physical and cognitive disabilities. It will also chart how the experiences of living with disabilities at home were shaped by broader forces including urbanization, industrialization, and nationalism as well as ideologies such as self-help and the eugenics movement. The research will focus on the lives of people with disabilities in urban domestic settings; diversify knowledge about urban homes and domestic life beyond able-bodied, middle-class lives; and establish how attitudes toward the accommodation of disability have evolved in the UK.

这个项目将研究1840-1945年伦敦家庭残疾人的城市历史。该项目位于玛丽女王和家庭博物馆合作的家庭研究中心，将是第一个分析博物馆藏品中与残疾有关的研究项目。这项研究将通过分析在英国国民健康服务体系（nhs）建立之前的一个世纪里，身体和认知有残疾的人的生活经历和家庭空间政治，为有关家庭、住房、残疾和城市的更广泛辩论做出原创性贡献。该项目将恢复各种身体和认知残疾人士的家庭生活方式。它还将描绘出在家中生活的残疾人的经历如何受到更广泛的力量的影响，包括城市化、工业化、民族主义以及自助和优生学运动等意识形态。研究将侧重于城市家庭环境中残疾人的生活；丰富关于城市家庭和家庭生活的知识，超越健全的中产阶级生活；并确定在英国对残疾人安置的态度是如何演变的。
