About this book

In the late 18th century, as Enlightenment ideals began to reshape society, the discourse surrounding education for the deaf gained momentum. "Observations d'un sourd et muèt sur un cours élémentaire d'éducation des sourds et muèts publié en 1779 par M. l'Abbé Deshamps, Chapelain de l'Église d'Orléans" by Pierre Desloges offers a critical examination of the pedagogical approaches for the deaf community. Desloges, himself deaf and mute, challenges the prevailing methods, advocating for a more inclusive and effective educational framework. This essential document is a must-read for educators, historians, and civic activists interested in the evolution of special education and the rights of individuals with disabilities. Explore the transformative ideas that laid the groundwork for modern educational practices.
