Tóm tắt

'Deafening Modernism' tells the story of modernism from the perspective of Deaf critical insight. Working to develop a critical deaf theory independent of identity-based discourse, Rebecca Sanchez excavates the intersections between Deaf and modernist studies. She traces the ways that deaf culture, history, linguistics, and literature provide a vital and largely untapped resource for understanding the history of American language politics and the impact that history has had on modernist aesthetic production.
