Lingue dei segni e sordità

open access | peer reviewed

Aims & Scope
Lingue dei segni e sordità (LISS) is a dialogical space open to the comparison of different approaches and schools in the study of deafness and its innumerable implications. LISS aims to become a point of reference for research and experimentation in the fields of acquisitional linguistics, sign language linguistics (including tactile variants), applied linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, anthropology, translation and interpretation. In this sense, it is a space that is open to the diverse input from scholars, professionals working at various levels of social inclusion and sign language teachers. The Series welcomes contributions in Italian, English and sign languages.

  • Italian Sign Language (LIS) and Tactile Italian Sign Language (LISt) were only recently recognised by the Italian Parliament (Law no. 69, 21 May 2021). While political recognition is recent, academic recognition dates back more than twenty-five years, when LIS was recognised as a scientific discipline by the Ministerial Decree of 23 June 1997 (G.U. 27/07/1997). This enabled Italian universities to include the teaching of LIS and LISt in their programmes. In recent years, the training of professionals working in the field of deafness (interpreters, translators, teachers, and communication assistants) has gradually shifted from associations and private entities to universities. The establishment of new university courses in this area will improve the adoption of teaching methods based on established scientific research. This volume delves into the teaching of LIS and LISt at university level and outlines possible future developments in this field. The contributions share established teaching experiences and explore innovative methodologies and tools capable of promoting the development of LIS and LISt linguistic skills among university students.
