Favor: can someone tell me which book cover features the famous photo of
Foucault with his head clasped in his hands? And/or can someone tell me of a
web site that has this photo on it?
Reason:
In one of my classes, we have a deaf student and the interpreter needs to
see this photo to better understand how to make the sign for "Foucault."
When you want to sign "Foucault," you clasp your hands on the sides of your
head in the exact same way, and seeing his facial expression would help the
interpreter to better understand the sign, as well as appreciate where the
sign comes from, the history of which is important in sign language, like
knowing the origin of words in any language.
I'm learning sign language and today saw her use the sign. But she, after I
asked her about it, told me she's not really comfortable doing the sign
because she doesn't understand it. So I told her that it must come from that
photo. I told her that I'd try to find a copy to show her next week.
Thanks,
Mitch
