Printed in the United States of America oi.uchicago.edu PREFACE HE book contains twelve chapters, but it can be broken up structurally into five parts. First, the place of writing among the various systems of human inter­ communication is discussed. This is followed by four Tchapters devoted to the descriptive and comparative treatment of the various types of writing in the world. The sixth chapter deals with the evolution of writing from the earliest stages of picture writing to a full alphabet. The next four chapters deal with general problems, such as the future of writing and the relationship of writing to speech, art, and religion. Of the two final chapters, one contains the first attempt to establish a full terminology of writing, the other an extensive bibliography. The aim of this study is to lay a foundation for a new science of writing which might be called grammatology. While the general histories of writing treat individual writings mainly from a descriptive-historical point of view, the new science attempts to establish general principles governing the use and evolution of writing on a comparative-typological basis.

  • Pseudo Noun Conflation in Ojibwa
    Nominal incorporation and word formation via phrasal movement: evidence from Ojibwe Abstract The present paper is a contribution to on-going discussion on the nature of nominal incorporation (NI), denominal verbs, and the composition of words in polysynthetic languages. In the context of Ojibwe, an Algonquian language, the article argues that, before they undergo morphological merger with the verb at PF, INs raise to their hosts in the syntax via phrasal movement. I show that the Ojibwe INs are complex elements that surface with derivational and inflectional affixes, and sometimes even with modifiers, falsifying the hypothesis according to which only bare nominal roots can be incorporated. The paper focuses on a special kind of NI where the incorporator is a bound affix argued to be a light verb v with both lexical and functional properties. Unlike simple verbalizers that turn a noun into a verb, it never conflates with the nominal with which it merges, in sharp contrast with denominal verb formation in English or French. Keywords Light verbs • Nominal incorporation • Ojibwe • Algonquian • Denominal verbs • Distributed Morphology 1 Introduction The present paper is a study of nominal incorporation (IN) and word formation in Ojibwe, an Algonquian language spoken in parts of Canada and of the United States. I argue that: (i) the language has a process of light verb NI; (ii) that it is productive and compositional; (iii) that it is syntactic rather than lexical; (iv) that the incorporee is a phrase rather than a head and that it raises in the syntax via XP movement (with subsequent morphological merger at PF).

  • The Sauk Language of the Sac and Fox of Oklahoma
    Language Preservation with the Help of Written Language: The Sauk Language of the Sac and Fox of Oklahoma KERSTIN MULLER REINSCHMIDT University of Tucson Ta ka we na nu ta ma. Ke ne no ta we?1 The chances of coming across a tribal member who can understand these phrases are small, because the tribe's main spoken language today is English. The Sac and Fox of Oklahoma2 have not been spared by history and share the fate of native language loss along with the majority of Indian communities across North America. Writing about the Mohawk language, Mithun and Chafe (1979:8) see the value of native languages as "the clearest symbols of their Indianness", and they ask: "Is such a loss inevitable, or, given the desire, can a community do something to retard or reverse it?" In this paper, I focus on Sauk orthography. Brandt (1988:328), who shows how linguists have served as consultants for North American tribes in various contexts, notes that "A central [context] is in orthography development and in teaching people to read and write their own languages."3 Within the contemporary context of literacy, Sauk needs to be visible as well as audible. Unfortunately, there has never been any agreement about the orthography to be used. While linguistic transcriptions vary from very detailed phonetic ones to more simplified phonemic representa­ tions, the Sac and Fox themselves have adopted what they call a "syllabic spelling" for their language. 1 "I speak a little Sauk. Do you understand?" The spelling is adopted from the Sac and Fox Primer Book (1977).

  • Refinement of the Ho-Chunk Syllabary in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries Kathleen Danker
    Chapter 4 Ba-be-bi-bo-ra: Refinement of the Ho-Chunk syllabary in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries Kathleen Danker In 1885, a man from the Nebraska Winnebago Reservation learned the Great Lakes syllabary writing system from the Sac and Fox in Iowa and began adapting it to Ho-Chunk, the only Siouan language to be written in this syllabary. During the first half of the twentieth century, the Ho-Chunk syllabary continued to berefined by writers who created new symbols necessary for the additional Ho-Chunk vow- els and consonants and discarded unnecessary Sac and Fox characters. Increasing correspondence to the phonemic characteristics of the Ho-Chunk language can be seen by comparing the version of it used by its original adapter in Nebraska pub- lished in 1890, a text composed in 1938 by Sam Blowsnake in Wisconsin, and one written in the 1970’s by Felix White, Sr., of Winnebago, Nebraska, who referred to the Ho-Chunk syllabary as the ba-be-bi-bo-ra. 1 Introduction The members of the Ho-Chunk, or Winnebago, tribe, with reservations inWis- consin and Nebraska, are the only speakers of a Siouan language to have devel- oped a phonemic written language system. Generally referred to as a syllabary, this type of orthography is more specifically termed an abugida as defined by Pe- ter T. Daniels in his 1990 typology of writing systems. Rather than employing sep- arate symbols for all possible syllabic combinations of consonants and vowels in a language, as does a classic syllabary, an abugida consists of a phoneme-specific consonant symbol followed by a secondary, also phoneme-specific, vowel sym- bol.

  • HISTORY, LAW and LAND: the Languages of Native Policy in New Zealand’S General Assembly, 1858-62
    HISTORY, LAW AND LAND: The Languages of Native Policy in New Zealand’s General Assembly, 1858-62 Samuel D. Carpenter 2008 HISTORY, LAW AND LAND: The Languages of Native Policy in New Zealand’s General Assembly, 1858-62 A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History at Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand. Samuel D. Carpenter 2008 ii to J. H. Wright iii Abstract _________________________________________________ This thesis explores the languages of Native policy in New Zealand’s General Assembly from 1858 to 1862. It argues, aligning with the scholarship of Peter Mandler and Duncan Bell, that a stadial discourse, which understood history as a progression from savage or barbarian states to those of civility, was the main paradigm in this period. Other discourses have received attention in New Zealand historiography, namely Locke and Vattel’s labour theory of land and Wakefield’s theory of systematic colonization; but some traditions have not been closely examined, including mid-Victorian Saxonism, the Burkean common law tradition, and the French discourse concerning national character. This thesis seeks to delineate these intellectual contexts that were both European and British, with reference to Imperial and colonial contexts. The thesis comprises a close reading of parliamentary addresses by C. W. Richmond, J. E. FitzGerald and Henry Sewell. iv Acknowledgements __________________________________________________________________ I wish to thank my supervisors Peter Lineham and Michael Belgrave, who have guided me through the challenges of thesis writing, posed many helpful questions and provided research direction throughout the process.

  • Heckewelder's 1792 Vocabulary from Ohio: a Possible Attestation of Mascouten
    Heckewelder's 1792 Vocabulary from Ohio: A Possible Attestation of Mascouten IVES GODDARD Smithsonian Institution INTRODUCTION An unlabeled vocabulary recorded by John Heckewelder in 1792 docu­ ments a form of speech very similar to Sauk, Meskwaki (Fox),1 and Kick­ apoo, but distinct from all three. It thus appears to attest a fourth member of the very shallow linguistic grouping that they constitute, quite possibly the otherwise undocumented speech of the Mascouten. Sauk-Meskwaki-Kickapoo Sauk, Meskwaki, and Kickapoo are very similar. Sauk and Meskwaki are mutually intelligible dialects of a language that has been called Fox (in an inclusive sense) or Sauk-Fox and is here called Sauk-Meskwaki. Kick­ apoo is noticeably, but still only slightly, more divergent. Intelligibility between some speakers of Kickapoo and Meskwaki may not be auto- matic, especially if differences in age are also involved. Thus Sauk- Meskwaki and Kickapoo may be considered two emergent languages. In 1670 the Jesuit linguist Claude Allouez mentioned two other eth­ nic groups in what is now Wisconsin in addition to the Meskwaki, Sauk, and Kickapoo: the Mascouten and the "Kitchigamich." He reported that all five of these peoples spoke the same language, and given his linguistic experience his report must be considered highly reliable. He had acquired some facility in Sauk, which he used to instruct the Mascouten in Chris­ tian doctrine, "in such a manner that I made myself understood to them." 1. To minimize possible confusion, this language is here referred to as Meskwaki in all periods but the conventional abbreviation "F" (for Fox) is kept as a label for cited words.
