Introduction to American Deaf Culture
Author: Thomas K. Holcomb
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190240857
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
Introduction to American Deaf Culture is the only comprehensive textbook that provides a broad, yet in-depth, exploration of how Deaf people are best understood from a cultural perspective, with coverage of topics such as how culture is defined, how the concept of culture can be applied to the Deaf experience, and how Deaf culture has evolved over the years. Among the issues included are an analysis of various segments of the Deaf community, Deaf cultural norms, the tension between the Deaf and disabled communities, Deaf art and literature (both written English and ASL forms), the solutions being offered by the Deaf community for effective living as Deaf individuals, and an analysis of the universality of the Deaf experience, including the enculturation process that many Deaf people undergo as they develop healthy identities. As a member of a multigenerational Deaf family with a lifetime of experience living bi-culturally among Deaf and hearing people, author Thomas K. Holcomb enhances the text with engaging stories interwoven throughout. In addition to being used in college-level courses, this book can also help parents and educators of Deaf children understand the world of Deaf culture. It offers a beautiful introduction to the ways Deaf people effectively manage their lives in a world full of people who can hear.

Constructions in Contact 2
Author: Hans C. Boas
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027259976
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
The last few years have seen a steadily increasing interest in constructional approaches to language contact. This volume builds on previous constructionist work, in particular Diasystematic Construction Grammar (DCxG) and the volume Constructions in Contact (2018) and extends its methodology and insights in three major ways. First, it presents new constructional research on a wide range of language contact scenarios including Afrikaans, American Sign Language, English, French, Malayalam, Norwegian, Spanish, Welsh, as well as contact scenarios that involve typologically different languages. Second, it also addresses other types of scenarios that do not fall into the classic language contact category, such as multilingual practices and language acquisition as emerging multilingualism. Third, it aims to integrate constructionist views on language contact and multilingualism with other approaches that focus on structural, social, and cognitive aspects. The volume demonstrates that Construction Grammar is a framework particularly well suited for analyzing a wide variety of language contact phenomena from a usage-based perspective.

Identity
Author: Zygmunt Bauman
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0745637183
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 118
Book Description
This topical new book by Zygmunt Bauman explores the notion of identity in the modern world. As we grapple with the insecurity and uncertainty of liquid modernity, Bauman argues that our socio-political, cultural, professional, religious and sexual identities are undergoing a process of continual transformation. Identities the world over have become more precarious than ever: we live in an era of constant change and disposability - whether it's last season’s outfit, or car, or even partner – and our identities as a result have become transient and deeply elusive. In a world of rapid global change where national borders are increasingly eroded, our identities are in a state of continuous flux. Identity - a notion that by its very nature is elusive and ambivalent – has become a key concept for understanding the changing nature of social life and personal experience in our contemporary, liquid modern age. In this brief book, Zygmunt Bauman explains compellingly why this is so.

Trump's Stars
Author: Holly Stockus
Publisher: Page Publishing, Inc
ISBN: 1645848515
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
Our elected President, Donald J. Trump, has become one of the most polarized human beings in our lifetime. We watch as the media browbeats this man, while simultaneously urging the people of this great nation to rise up, and pull the rug out from under him. Many do not understand how he continues to plow through the media unscathed and intact. His larger than life personality, and blunt tongue will not attract everyone, however he is who he is by design. Would it not be in our best interest to get to know our president before swallowing the dictations of the press, and late-night jesters? We can make some sense of it all by releasing wisdom from our ancient ancestors. When we study the movements of the celestial beings a narrative can be told. The human psyche is an inner zodiac expressing its identity. As a holistic astrologer, I felt the urge to divulge some insight on our president and our current times. We're finding ourselves in the midst of a showdown between two energetic forces. Our country has become totally divided partly because of the relentless media. Politicians will be politicians, but the outlandish attempts to discredit this administration is diabolical. Power and control is the new norm by manipulation, while our freedom is slowly being taken away. We are at a pivotal time in our country's history. How can we rise above the noise and become aware of what's right in front of us? Journey with me for insights to a man that has captured us all--whether by embracement or revolt, but either way intrigued.
