• This presentation aims to provide an overview of recent research on Italian Sign Language (LIS) framed in a comparative, cross-linguistic framework. I will first sketch the major typological features of LIS as they emerge from earlier research on the sublexical, morphological and morphosyntactic structure of the language. I will then consider in some detail the major results provided by more recent research lines focused on, respectively: 1) oral components and 2) iconic features; 3) multimodal aspects and coarticulation phenomena. Finally I will consider and discuss a set of open questions that I believe still need to be addressed, in research on LIS as in research on other signed languages, if we wish to advance in our understanding of the structure of signed as compared to spoken languages. The discussion will focus on the need of providing more adequate descriptions of signed languages, and of the communities of deaf signers, taking in due account: a) the fact that the largest majority of signers are not native; b) the fact that signed languages, like the majority of spoken languages used in the world, do not have a written tradition, hence they should be studied and characterized within the framework proper of research on spoken as distinguished from written language; c) the major methodological problems raised by the fact that we still have not developed appropriate notation tools for representing and analyzing signed texts.
