Abstract:
In this paper we report on our attempt to teach the polyglot savant Christopher (‘C’ hereinafter) British Sign Language (BSL). BSL presents C with a novel challenge in the use of hand-eye co-ordination, while at the same time offering him all the linguistic ingredients he is obsessed with. Despite deficits in key areas of intellectual ability, communication and visuo-spatial cognition, C has developed a working knowledge of BSL through processes of circumvention, adaptation and invention. We also taught BSL to a comparator group of talented second-language learners, though we do not discuss this comparison in depth here (see Morgan et al, in prep a) but merely refer to some of the test scores as a guide to how normal a sign learner C is. Results from formal tests of his linguistic knowledge and observational study of his developing communicative ability in BSL are analysed and described. These results reflect the structure and use of BSL, highlighting the important role of visuo-spatial cognition in its acquisition and manipulation.
