Resumen

According to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, specifically Article 4, undertaking and promoting research is key to sensitizing society to respect and raise awareness of the rights and dignity of persons with disabilities. By virtue of the achievement of this maxim, Visual Disability In Ancient World is intended to shed light from a historical and interdisciplinary point of view on those people who lacked the ability to see totally or partially during the most ancient moments of our history. For this purpose, among the contributions that the lector will be able to find in this book will have: a brief introduction to the problem of blindness, which will seek to capture the idea of how the Greeks and Romans saw the blind; a second and third epigraph will focus on the role of the blind from a legislative and a theological point of view; a fourth chapter will reproduce the problem of blindness in the Chinese society; and, finally, a fifth work will speak to us concretely about the care of the eyes among the ancient Egyptians.
