Notes

Description
"Sign languages are non-written languages. Hence, the life stories of elderly Deaf signers (i.e., signers born in the 1930s and 1940s) are under serious threat of being lost. This volume constitutes the first effort to document some of these unique stories, both positive and negative ones, thus contributing to the preservation of the cultural and linguistic heritage of Deaf communities."--Back cover.
