description | The analysis of narratives collected from deaf people in India in 1987 & 1988 (N unspecified) indicates a pattern of acceptance, a normalizing process in some people. The act of accepting deafness as a natural thing is found to be liberating in more than one way. Naturalness views deafness as incurable, thus saving people both money & time spent on finding a cure. Feelings of culpability are also erased. This realization - though not shared by all deaf Indian people - enabled some to overcome great social, professional, & educational barriers. M. Perdoux |
