Since the 1980s, numerous authors reported a strong endogamy between deaf people, historical facts pertaining to the deaf community, but especially, the languages that are specific to this singular group of people that call themselves, the Deaf. These observations gave birth to the idea of a unique deaf culture which is the object, in this article, of an attempt at a definition based on the landmark works that have brought up this concept.
