Abstract: The ubiquitous labels attached to disability and a disabled person such as the ‘blind-king’ Dhritarashtra or the utterly transgressive ‘Pagla’ Dashu are allegories pertaining to different aspects of the culture in Bengal. Since the texts, especially those belonging to the genres of folklore, mythology and children’s literature are deeply embedded into the consciousness of the masses, the identity formation through these texts regarding disability largely shape our subjective thinking. The everyday discourse revolving around disability in the present context of West Bengal is often derived from diverse forms of collective representation, of the same, be it narrative, performative or literary. This paper is a further investigation of what our culture allows to be tagged as normal and what it marginalizes, in the realm of the abnormal. In this paper we would like to encapsulate negotiations between opposing elements in our perceptions of disabilities. These texts become the mode of simulation that opens up the dialogic space between the licit and illicit as well as normativity and transgression. The paper also tries to chart out the survival mechanisms adopted by the disabled in various literary texts which are examined here. The perception of disability is invariably based on our lived experience: the everyday transactions with people and surroundings. The greater the intersection between the fields of experience and literary transmissions, the more are the chances of an informed reception in Bengal. Finally, it seeks to find a restorative path to eliminate the implicit stigmatization of Disability and the Disabled.
