Printed in the United States of America oi.uchicago.edu PREFACE HE book contains twelve chapters, but it can be broken up structurally into five parts. First, the place of writing among the various systems of human inter­ communication is discussed. This is followed by four Tchapters devoted to the descriptive and comparative treatment of the various types of writing in the world. The sixth chapter deals with the evolution of writing from the earliest stages of picture writing to a full alphabet. The next four chapters deal with general problems, such as the future of writing and the relationship of writing to speech, art, and religion. Of the two final chapters, one contains the first attempt to establish a full terminology of writing, the other an extensive bibliography. The aim of this study is to lay a foundation for a new science of writing which might be called grammatology. While the general histories of writing treat individual writings mainly from a descriptive-historical point of view, the new science attempts to establish general principles governing the use and evolution of writing on a comparative-typological basis.

  • Braille Signage Guidelines Approved April 2014
    Braille Signage Guidelines Approved April 2014 The U.S. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Accessibility Guidelines require the use of braille signage to ensure that people who cannot see to read print may safely access and use a building. This brochure is designed to provide basic guidelines about braille to assist with the production of braille signage. Resources for further assistance are also provided. People who are blind or visually impaired benefit from braille signs that are placed in convenient and predictable locations. In addition, the braille should be presented horizontally and clear of the sign’s edge, unobscured by the frame. Regulations requiring braille on signs have led to an increased presence of braille information in public areas, raising the expectation that braille will be provided in other useful contexts. What Is Braille? Braille is a system of touch reading and writing in which the alphabet is represented by the arrangement of six dots in a space called a cell. • A full cell is three dots high and two dots wide. • The six dots of the cell are numbered 1, 2, 3 downward on the left and 4, 5, 6, downward on the right. • A braille character may stand for a single letter of the alphabet, a whole word, a digit, a punctuation mark, or other symbols. • Only 63 different dot combinations can be formed. The meaning and use of the dot combinations that make up braille characters in North American English follows standard codes defined by the Braille Authority of North America (BANA). • English braille is read from left to right and top to bottom, the same way English print is read.

  • Faqs: Spanish Braille
    FAQs: Spanish Braille How does braille work? Braille is used throughout the world as a literacy medium for persons who are blind. The system consists of a system of “cells” of six possible dots. Different configurations of dots have different meanings, either as letters, words, parts of words, punctuations or “functions” such as capitalization or accents. Braille systems used to represent languages with different print orthographical systems, such as Japanese and English, are quite different. Systems representing languages that use similar orthographical systems, such as Spanish and English (both of which use the Latin alphabet) are quite similar. How are Spanish braille and English braille the same? Within both in English and Spanish, there are two braille “codes”. There is an “uncontracted” code in which each braille cell represents a letter, number or punctuation mark. These codes are almost identical in English and Spanish since both languages use essentially the same orthographical system. The only real variations are that Spanish has additional braille cells to represent seven commonly occurring accented letters - á, é, í, ó, ú, ü and ñ – and also some punctuation symbols are different. In either language, a young blind student typically learns this basic, uncontracted code first. How are Spanish braille and English braille different? There are also “contracted” codes for both languages in which one or two braille cells represent entire words or parts of words. For this reason, there are significant differences between contracted English and Spanish braille as the words and parts of words that are common in one language may not be common in the other.
