Abstract

This invited book review examines Elements of French Deaf Heritage by Hedberg and Lane (2020), focusing on the historical and cultural experiences of the signing deaf community in 18th- and 19th-century France. The review highlights how the text extends the theory of deaf ethnicity and illuminates connections between French and American deaf cultures.
