In addition, names of Deaf and Hearing historical figures appearing in blue are briefly described in "Who's Who" which can be accessed via the Overview Section of this Project (for English text) or the Timeline Section (for ASL). "The history of the Deaf is no longer only that of their education or of their hearing teachers. It is the history of Deaf people in its long march, with its hopes, its sufferings, its joys, its angers, its defeats and its victories." Bernard Truffaut (1993) Honor Thy Deaf History © Nancy Rourke 2011 Introduction The history of the DEAF-WORLD is one that has constantly had to counter the falsehood that has been attributed to Aristotle that "Those who are born deaf all become senseless and incapable of reason."1 Our long march to prove that being Deaf is all right and that natural signed languages are equal to spoken languages has been well documented in Deaf people's literary and artistic expressions. The 1999 World Federation of the Deaf Conference in Sydney, Australia, opened with the "Blue Ribbon Ceremony" in which various people from the global Deaf community stated, in part: "...We celebrate our proud history, our arts, and our cultures... we celebrate our survival...And today, let us remember that many of us and our ancestors have suffered at the hands of those who believe we should not be here.

  • About This Issue
    ABOUT THIS ISSUE SCHOOL SCHMOOL WAS CREATED IN TIOHTIÀ:KE ("MONTREAL"), UNCEDED INDIGENOUS KANIEN'KEHA:KA (MOHAWK) TERRITORY, WHICH HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN A MEETING AND LIVING SPACE FOR HAUDENOSAUNEE, ABÉNAKI, AND ALGONQUIN PEOPLE. WE ALSO RECOGNIZE THE CONTINUED PRESENCE OF MÉTIS, INNU, AND INUIT FOLK ON THIS LAND. School Schmool is your radical guide to your often unradical school. In 1994, the first editors wrote, “When we say ‘school schmool’ we don’t mean to be dismissive. What we mean is that there are a lot of things going on at university, and school is only one of them.” Though it began as a bi-annual publication that brought together group profiles, articles, and practical resources for social justice, School Schmool is now an ad-free, corporate-free, agenda-with-an-agenda, connecting the McGill, Concordia, and greater Tioh’tia:ke communities.We hope to bridge (and break) the gap between academia and issues outside the classroom by providing a guidebook where students can find information on resources and initiatives taking place in their communities. We strive to feature content that presents radical, anti-oppressive, and intersectional perspectives on current issues, especially works by Queer and/or Trans people, Black and/or Indigenous people, and other people of colour. The theme for this year’s edition is THE TANGIBLE. Over the past few years, it's often felt like everyone was particularly exhausted. Instead of just talking about how shitty things sometimes are, we wanted to offer possibilities for concrete actions, and real ideas for creating radical communities. Sometimes engagement can mean learning how to occupy the McGill administration building (p.

  • From Languageless Interaction to Enlanguaged Interaction: a Philosophical Study of Ildefonso

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. FROM LANGUAGELESS INTERACTION TO ENLANGUAGED INTERACTION: A PHILOSOPHICAL STUDY OF ILDEFONSO A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements fo r the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Philosophy At Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Anne Jennifer Mackenzie 1999 11 ABSTRACT This investigation centres on a man, Ildefonso, learning his first language (American Sign Language) at twenty-seven. The prime source of material is Susan Schaller's account of teaching Ildefonso, A Man Without Words. Certain claims about language and education from the Deaf community, and writings of the Deaf are a second important source of material. The deaf individual, not the theory of language as such, is the focus of the issue of languagelessness in these materials and in this dissertation . • Schaller's account throws doubt on some conventional notions of language, and an alternative view of language emerges. Her early lessons are based on conventional ideas: that language is fu ndamentally a symbol system; that language is a tool for transferring information; that vocabulary and grammar are of prime importance. Lessons based on these ideas fail with Ildefonso. Progress occurs when Schaller stops trying to show Ildefonso ASL signs and begins trying to confer with him. Her description of his progress suggests languaging is fu ndamentally a particular kind of interaction. I characterise this as reciprocal back and fo rth interaction, and trace its development in three dialogues between Schaller and Ildefonso.

  • It Has Been Over Thirty Years Since Peter Singer Introduced
    kari weil A Report on the Animal Turn It has been over thirty years since Peter Singer introduced the term speciesism into philosophical parlance and wrote eloquently against a form of discrimination that went largely unnoticed both inside and outside academia. But while Singer has had enormous influence over the years in the area of animal rights, his effort to put the discrimination against non- human species on par with the prejudicial treatment and injustices caused by sexism or racism has had less success; the fight against speciesism has not had the same force in the academy, perhaps until now. In the past few years there has been an explosion of conferences, books, and discussion networks around the question of the animal. On the online discussion network H-Net Animal, a lively and heated discussion took place on the questions of what animal studies is, whether it is already or should become a new discipline, and if so, whether it should model itself on women’s stud- ies or ethnic studies. Such questions are both pertinent and misconceived. Women’s studies and ethnic studies programs demanded that the academy acknowledge and address the underrepresentation and misrepresentation of groups of people under the forces of sexism and racism.

  • American Sign Language: Why It Has Become a Fallback Foreign Language Credit
    Yale College Education Studies Program Senior Capstone Projects Student Research Spring 2017 American Sign Language: Why It Has Become a Fallback Foreign Language Credit Jessica Liang Yale College, New Haven Connecticut Abstract: Counselors often refer high school students who struggle to complete foreign language requirements to take American Sign Language (ASL) instead. Yet this practice implies that ASL is a somehow “easier” language, diminishing its value by insinuating a fallback status and unwittingly affirming the perception of deaf education’s subpar curriculum. This aspect of ASL’s reputation is not just one derived anecdotally from my own experience; Jacobowitz (2005) found that many students sign up for ASL courses because they believe that signs are representative of English words and that the class will lead to an “easy A.” Since the continuation of this practice of substituting ASL as an “easier” foreign language would make no sense without scientific evidence, in this paper I explore whether ASL really is more conducive to learning than are other foreign languages. ASL ought to be treated as the equivalent of a foreign language when implemented in schools and not simply as an “easier” substitute. Suggested Citation: Liang, J. (2017).

    “Irish Sign Language [isg] (A language of Ireland) • Alternate Names: Teanga Chomharthaíochta na hÉireann • Population: 21,000 (2014 IMB). 5,000 Deaf and estimated 45,000 hearing L1 and L2 users (2014 DeafVillageIreland). • Location: Scattered, possibly also in Northern Ireland. • Language Status: 5 (Developing). • Dialects: Separate schools for boys and girls resulted in strong gender-based dialectal differences, but these have diminished with time. British Sign Language (BSL)[bfi] was formally introduced to Ireland in 1816, but references to signing go back much further in Irish history. In 1846, the Catholic nuns who established St. Mary’s School for Deaf Girls went to France, so contemporary Irish Sign Language includes aspects of nineteenth-century French Sign Language [fsl] as well as BSL, with influence from signed French, signed English, and gestural systems like cued speech. (Leeson 2012). • Typology: One-handed fingerspelling. • Language Use: Several deaf schools. Government policy recommends bilingual education (National Council for Special Education 2011). Deaf associations. Committee on national sign language, and organization for sign language teachers. All domains. All ages. • Language Development: Films. TV. Dictionary. • Other Comments: Support for parents to learn Irish Sign Language (2014 National Council for Special Education). The name ‘Irish Sign Language’ (ISL) came into common use following the publication of a dictionary of ISL in 1979 and establishment of the Irish Deaf Society in the mid 1980s. (Leeson 2012).

  • Silver-Swartz 1 Lexical Variation in Italian Sign Language1 Amira
    Silver-Swartz 1 Lexical Variation in Italian Sign Language1 Amira Silver-Swartz Italian Sign Language, or LIS, is a language rich in lexical differences. One person might sign AUGUST by passing a thumb across their brow; someone else might articulate it as two hands fanning the signer. There is anecdotal evidence that lexical variation is especially rich in the month and color signs; this thesis seeks to record and catalog the variations collected from 12 signers during a reunion at the Tommaso Pendola School in Siena, Italy. The similarities and differences among variants for a single concept/sign (for instance, RED) are discussed. The background of LIS and Italian deaf education is important to this research. The trends in European Deaf education are explored, starting with the Spanish monk Pedro Ponce de Leon and the French Abbé de L’Epée. The influence of the Milan Congress’s decision that oralism, not the teaching of sign language, was the preferred method for teaching deaf students, and the state of deaf education in Italy are both described in order to give some sociological context to the data; the influence of oralism also accounts for the common practice of mouthing parts of Italian words as the LIS sign is being articulated. The historical changes in the morphology and phonology of LIS are also described in order to pick out trends in the data; specifically, the tendency for signs to move from having contact on the face or hands to being signed in neutral space is mentioned. All of these are preludes to the core of the work, which is contained in the variation charts for each month or color.
