Book Synopsis Forbidden Signs by : Douglas C. Baynton
Download or read book Forbidden Signs written by Douglas C. Baynton and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1998-04-22 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forbidden Signs explores American culture from the mid-nineteenth century to 1920 through the lens of one striking episode: the campaign led by Alexander Graham Bell and other prominent Americans to suppress the use of sign language among deaf people. The ensuing debate over sign language invoked such fundamental questions as what distinguished Americans from non-Americans, civilized people from "savages," humans from animals, men from women, the natural from the unnatural, and the normal from the abnormal. An advocate of the return to sign language, Baynton found that although the grounds of the debate have shifted, educators still base decisions on many of the same metaphors and images that led to the misguided efforts to eradicate sign language. "Baynton's brilliant and detailed history, Forbidden Signs, reminds us that debates over the use of dialects or languages are really the linguistic tip of a mostly submerged argument about power, social control, nationalism, who has the right to speak and who has the right to control modes of speech."—Lennard J. Davis, The Nation "Forbidden Signs is replete with good things."—Hugh Kenner, New York Times Book Review

Book Synopsis Significant Gestures by : John Tabak
Download or read book Significant Gestures written by John Tabak and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2006-09-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tabak has created a fascinating exploration of Deaf culture in America. The story begins during the first half of the 19th century when a small number of individuals introduced a language for the Deaf into North America and developed an educational system in which to use it. Out of these schools came members of a new American social class, the Deaf--with a capital D--who created institutions through which they could participate in American society on terms equal to those of other constituent groups. This proved extremely controversial-- among all but the Deaf. The controversy lasted a century, during which time American Sign Language evolved along racial lines and in response to the pressures of those who sought to eliminate the use of American Sign Language.
