Entre a deficiência e a cultura: análise etnográfica de atividades missionárias com surdos
Keywords in Portuguese
Atividade missionária
Estudos surdos
Língua brasileira de sinas - Libras
Movimento social
Surdez
Abstract in Portuguese
O objetivo desta reflexão é empreender uma análise sobre o processo de constituição da surdez como particularidade étnico-lingüística. Primeiramente, o foco privilegiado é a comparação etnográfica e histórica das práticas de algumas instituições religiosas - Igreja Católica, Igreja Batista e Testemunhas de Jeová que têm se ocupado da atividade missionária com surdos. Como procedimento metodológico, a atenção esteve voltada para a dimensão performativa dos rituais dessas instituições, com a intenção de revelar como elas produzem diferenças entre pessoas surdas e ouvintes em termos de língua e cultura. Compõem também o universo empírico, dicionários religiosos e manuais de evangelismo referentes à surdez. Em um segundo momento, a intenção é revelar a circulação de agentes religiosos em outras instâncias, tais como, movimento social, instituições universitárias e mercado (que emerge relacionado à língua brasileira de sinais libras). As trocas entre esses domínios religiosos e não religiosos foram constitutivas para o engendramento da surdez como particularidade étnico-lingüística traduzida em normatividade jurídica no interior do Estado-nação.

Abstract in English
The aim of this study is analyze the process of deaf as ethno-linguistic particularity. First of all we built an ethnographic and historical comparison between the practices of some religious institutions - Catholic Church, Baptist Church and Jehovahs Witnesses - that have engaged in missionary activity with the deaf. As a methodological procedure, attention was focused on the performance of these institutions rituals, with the intention of revealing how they produce differences between deaf and hearing people in terms of language and culture. Also the empirical universe constitutes religious dictionaries and evangelism manuals relative to deaf. In a second moment, the intention is to reveal the movement of religious agents in other instances, such as social movements, academic institutions and markets (that emerge related to the Brazilian Sign Language -LBS). As will be shown, the exchanges between these domains religious and nonreligious were constitutive for the engendering of deaf as ethno-linguistic particularity in legal universe inside the nation-state.
