A number of approaches to disability are modelled on the word itself, negatived, of ability. Hence disability is a lack of ability, a deficit modality. In this essay, I draw on Gregor Wollbring, “Confined to my Legs” along with a reading of Epicurus and Ivan Illich’s discussion of what he called the ‘expropriation’ of health as well as Nietzsche’s reflections on life and pain, sickness and the ‘great health’.
