The first volume in the new Sociolinguistics in Deaf Communities
series presents a rich collection of essays showcasing the breadth
and depth of this exciting discipline. Topics of inquiry in the
premiere volume include fingerspelling in Langue des Signes
Quebecoise (LSQ) in Quebec, Canada; language used by a Navajo
family with deaf children; language policy, classroom practice, and
multiculturalism in deaf education; aspects of American Sign
Language (ASL) discourse and of Filipino Sign Language discourse;
and the nature and role of rhetorical language in Deaf social
movements. Among the noted contributors are Dominique Machabee,
Arlene Blumenthal-Kelly, Jeffrey Davis, Melanie Metzger, Samuel
Supalla, Barbara Gerner de Garcia, Liza B. Martinez, Kathy
Jankowski, and also Ceil Lucas. Sociolinguistics in Deaf
Communities affords an invaluable opportunity to assess up-to-date
information on sign language linguistics worldwide and its impact
on policy and planning in education, interaction with spoken
languages, interpreting, and the issues of empowerment.
