"You are about to enter the realm of Deaf culture, a world that may be completely new to you. Intriguingly, insiders and outsiders to this world may regard it in two completely different fashions. Let us examine this contradiction with the proverbial glass of water that can be viewed as either half-full or half-empty"--

Using original sources, this unique book focuses on the Deaf community during the 19th century.

This book presents a ‘Traveller’s Guide’ to Deaf Culture, starting from the premise that Deaf cultures have an important contribution to make to other academic disciplines, and human lives in general. Within and outside Deaf communities, there is a need for an account of the new concept of Deaf culture, which enables readers to assess its place alongside work on other minority cultures and multilingual discourses. The book aims to assess the concepts of culture, on their own terms and in their many guises and to apply these to Deaf communities. The author illustrates the pitfalls which have been created for those communities by the medical concept of ‘deafness’ and contrasts this with his new concept of “Deafhood”, a process by which every Deaf child, family and adult implicitly explains their existence in the world to themselves and each other.

Through his research over the years, Dr Supalla, who is deaf, has identified the name sign system which has a pattern to forming and giving name signs within the deaf communities. The need for a formal name sign book has risen dramatically with the increasing use of inappropriate name signs. There is a comprehensive guide and a list of over 500 name signs to help people to select appropriate name signs according to the American Sign Language (ASL) rules of formation and use. The book is written to be both informative and entertaining, and Dr Supalla compels all who are interested to become more aware of deaf people's intriguing signed language and culture, both dating back to the early years of deaf education.

"Inside Deaf Culture relates deaf people's search for a voice of their own, and their proud self-discovery and self-description as a flourishing culture. Padden and Humphries show how the nineteenth-century schools for the deaf, with their denigration of sign language and their insistence on oralist teaching, shaped the lives of deaf people for generations to come. They describe how deaf culture and art thrived in mid-twentieth century deaf clubs and deaf theatre, and profile controversial contemporary technologies." Cf. Publisher's description.
