抄録

As the social recognition of the Paralympic Games becomes wider and the popularity of the Paralympians, particularly the medalists, grows rapidly, the severe training and human endeavor of the athletes as well as the devotion and support of their families and friends are more and more widely reported. <br><br> On the other hand, the touching human stories and inspiration which they give to the general public have begun to be seen as having an unintended negative impact to the actual social inclusion of persons with disability, as those stories and the mode in which they are reported, tend to make the medalists more and more divorced from the “ordinary citizens” with disabilities. <br><br> As part of the efforts to mitigate such a divorce and to fill the gap between the success stories of the elite athletes and the frustration of the masses, one could make some deep analysis on the nature of the inspiration or heightened sentiment which one draws from the achievements of the athletes with disabilities. <br><br> In doing so, the author of this article divides the origins of such ”inspiration” or sentiment into five dimensions, namely 1 acceptance and endurance of disabilities, 2 overcoming disabilities by making achievements, 3 conversion of or compensation for disabilities, 4 protest and impeachment and 5 gratitude for support and sense of co-habitation or symbiosis.
