Abstract

Assessments of disability are not only related to physical disability. The presence of depressive problems at various levels may also create a disability. In this research, in the German Literature, the works of Günter Grass and the Tin Trumpet were examined by Stefan Zweig's Sabanced Heart. Only physically disability was not taken into consideration in the works, and especially in Zweig, the disability situation was evaluated in terms of the intellectual world. In the works of Ayraca, psychoanalytic approach was developed and activities for the family, the social life, the inner world and the language used in the works were evaluated. In particular, the expressions are about the behavior of persons with disabilities in need or not, or the behaviors that the disabled person faces by his / her family and environment. Another important aspect is the relationship between behaviors and behaviors perceived by the disabled. Such elements have been studied with various models. For this reason, models created in both novels are medical, moral and social models. In the context of the works, it is evaluated that all of the models are present and especially the effect of the social model.
