    H-Disability Morman on Wagner, 'The "Miracle Worker" and the Transcendentalist: Annie Sullivan, Franklin Sanborn, and the Education of Helen Keller' Review published on Saturday, February 1, 2014 David Wagner. The "Miracle Worker" and the Transcendentalist: Annie Sullivan, Franklin Sanborn, and the Education of Helen Keller. Boulder: Paradigm Publishers, 2012. viii + 171 pp. $140.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-59451-936-9; $33.95 (paper), ISBN 978-1-59451-937-6. Reviewed by Edward (Ed) T. Morman (Independent) Published on H-Disability (February, 2014) Commissioned by Iain C. Hutchison A Strong Radical Woman and the Philanthropic Men Who Knew Her Can two people, at least one of whom does not fit neatly into any mold, be used to exemplify contrasting social forces? In this delightful book, David Wagner proposes to do just that with Franklin Benjamin Sanborn and Annie Sullivan Macy, even as he points out the pitfalls of such an approach. The theme of the book is social status and the worldviews that go with it. Disability--Sullivan’s visual impairment and Helen Keller’s deaf-blindness--is responsible for the contacts between Sanborn and Sullivan, but their differences (and commonalities) derive from other sources. Sanborn (1831-1917)--considerably better known in his own time than today--was a younger contemporary of the New England transcendentalists. An admirer of Samuel Gridley Howe (1801-76), Sanborn deeply respected Howe’s work as the first director of the Perkins School for the Blind. Sanborn joined Howe as a member of the “Secret Six” funders of John Brown and, after Brown’s failed 1859 raid at Harper’s Ferry, the two men together avoided arrest by fleeing to Canada.

An Abstract of Love is Not Blind: Eugenics, Blindness, and Marriage in the United States, 1840-1940 by Marissa Leigh Slaughter Stalvey Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Liberal Studies Degree The University of Toledo May 2014 The eugenics movement targeted people who were blind and visually impaired as part of "the unfit" members of society who needed to be prevented from passing on their blindness to successive generations. In the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, eugenicists, blindness professionals, and even other blind people believed that the best way to eliminate blindness was through the restriction of marriages between blind people. Ophthalmologist Lucien Howe repeatedly attempted to secure legislation barring blind people from marrying. Blindness professionals, especially educators, stressed the importance of the separation of the sexes in residential schools for the blind as the way in which to prevent blind marriages and intermarriages, and thus to prevent future generations of blind people.

  • The Miracle Worker
    Wink: An Online Journal 1 Informative Essay: Donna Silbaugh Instructor: Tracy Helixon The Miracle Worker Could a child of 7, deaf and blind from the age of 19 months, really be taught to communicate with the outside world? This was the central question in the film The Miracle Worker, a story about Helen Keller. It focused on the first month of Helen adjusting to her teacher, Annie Sullivan, and Annie‟s methods of teaching. Bosley Crowther of The New York Times stated that the movie emphasized the physical and emotional struggles between Annie and Helen. Though there were minor differences between the movie and actual events, three scenes contained major inaccuracies. Three main differences between The Miracle Worker and real life were the scenes when the aunt informed Captain Keller about Perkins school, when it was said that Annie Sullivan had nine eye operations, and when Helen threw a pitcher of water in Annie‟s face during the dinner scene before the famous water pump event. The first difference between the film and real life was a scene in the film where the aunt informed Helen‟s father, Captain Arthur Keller, about the Perkins School for the blind. The scene started when Helen (about 7 years old) was brought into the parlor after a struggle with another girl. Helen‟s aunt told Helen‟s father that something needed to be done with Helen. He asked what she had in mind, and she responded, “Why this very famous Perkins School in Boston. They‟re just supposed to do wonders.” Captain Keller remarked that he had already consulted someone in Baltimore and Washington and gave the impression that he did all he could do.
