撕掉“标签”:视障跑者的具身显现

Tearing off“Label”:Embodiment of Visually Impaired Runner

沿着身体的自然意义和社会意义的主线,在“具身显现”的理论面向讨论中借鉴“生物-心理-社会模式”剖析视障跑者在日常世界中的身体呈现。研究发现,视障者渴望撕掉被社会贴上的“失能”标签和打破束缚自我呈现的边界,对身体再定义的过程表征了“不一的我”和“奋斗的我”的逐渐形成;视障者肉身性特征在一系列的“操持”和“整饰”的身体实践和策略下呈现出“意识反抗”“认知转变”等更具复杂社会意义上的新身体;视障者在多重知觉互构与平等互动关系下,建立了不同于“视觉优越”的感官世界和社会融合的新秩序。分析这一“具身显现”动态过程及其蕴含的社会行为和关系,以期在中国社会现代化语境下丰富身体社会学和运动社会学对“残损”身体的经验研究。

Following the main line of the natural meaning and social meaning of the body,this paper analyzes the physical presentation of the visually impaired runners in the daily world by using the“bio-psycho-social model”in the theoretical discussion of“embodiment”.It was revealed that visually impaired people were eager to tear off the label of“disability”and break the boundaries of self-presentation.The process of body redefinition represented the gradual formation of“a different self”and“a fighting self”.The physical characteristics of the visually impaired demonstrated a new body in a more complex social sense such as“consciousness resistance”and“cognitive transformation”under a series of physical practices and strategies of“manipulation”and“grooming”.Visually impaired people established a new order of sensory world and social integration different from“visual superiority”under the mutual construction and equal interaction of multiple perceptions.By analyzing this dynamic process of“embodiment”and its social behavior and relationship,it was hoped to enrich the empirical study of“mutilated”body in the context of the Chinese social modernization.
