CARTA DEL DIRECTOR Tirios y troyanos, entiéndase que en la historiografía pugnan por imponer unos la preeminencia de los acontecimientos, otros su determinación por los contextos. Benedetto Croce, disgustado con la inclinación pesimista de Burckhardt a destacar las constantes y eternas repeticiones, le reprochaba haber renegado de la historia misma, que se constituye precisamente como una sucesión de actos siempre nuevos e incomparables. La tendencia a observar lo típico y lo reiterativo conduciría a un mundo de insípidas genera- lizaciones, en el cual la historia de los acontecimientos quedaría suplantada por una especie de historia cultural o social dentro de la cual, característicamente, los relatos de las acciones humanas quedarían relegados detrás del primer plano otorgado a sus escenarios. Por lo demás, en la historia las generalizaciones son extremadamente riesgosas. En efecto, todo acontecimiento tiene dos caras. Una cara visible, que es la del hecho propia- mente dicho, y una cara oculta, lugar de todas las conjeturas de las ciencias del espíritu que tratan de vislumbrar los significados en el pensamiento de su ejecutor. Esa ambigüedad de los acontecimientos históricos es completamente ajena a los asuntos de la naturaleza que, por carecer del segundo aspecto, son fácilmente generalizables. Por su parte, Fernand Braudel sostuvo la existencia de tres niveles explicativos de un conjunto histórico. En primer lugar, la historia subyacente y casi inmóvil de la relación del hombre con su medio físico. En segundo lugar, la historia lenta pero visible de la evolución de las sociedades, las economías, las instituciones. Por fin, la historia tradicional, que sucede en lapsos cortos porque está cortada a la medida de los acontecimientos y la vida de los indivi- duos. Esta última es la más rica y apasionante, porque registra los sentimientos y las fantasías que experimentaron sus protagonistas, ya sea en el registro de la comedia o de la tragedia. 2362-2024 Pero también constituye el nivel de explicación más peligroso, porque su innegable atractivo es precisamente de lo que debe desconfiar el historiador para no perder de vista las otras dos dimensiones. Pues el problema que se yergue frente a toda investigación histórica es el de aprehender simultáneamente todos esos niveles históricos, afrontar sus contradicciones, desplazarse fluidamente de uno a otro y establecer sus conexiones. Es bajo esa orientación que el presente Anales 50 pone a consideración los diversos episodios y momentos que han elaborado los autores de sus artículos. Los Anales del IAA llegan con este volumen a su número 50 y con ello culmina una década de reformulaciones editoriales iniciadas en 2011, con su número 41. Es también un acontecimiento que debe ponderarse tomando nota de la diversidad y riqueza que nuestra publicación fue adquiriendo en términos de temáticas, autores, normas, versiones,

  • Some Data and Considerations from Canada and Bolivia
    BISAL 1, 2006, 107-128 Indigenous Identity and Language: Some Considerations from Bolivia and Canada * Itesh Sachdev School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, London, UK Denise Y. Arnold and Juan de Dios Yapita** Universidad PIEB and Instituto de Lengua y Cultura Aymara, La Paz, Bolivia ______________________________________________________________ Abstract The focus of this paper is on indigenous identity and language in Bolivia and Canada. In both these contexts there is great reluctance to treating indigenous peoples as those with internationally recognised juridical rights. The original inhabitants of North and South America have been referred to by a variety of labels (stemming from their distinct colonial histories) including “Native,” “Indian,” “Indigenous,” “First Nations,” etc. These group labels, when chosen and/or accepted, represent core symbols of culture and express meaningful identities. Moreover, identity may be formed, experienced and communicated through such labels. Education is an important means by which such labels are accepted and identities are formed. In this paper the relationship between identity, language and education is explored amongst indigenous communities in Bolivia and Canada. The Bolivian situation, where Aymara and Quechua speakers constitute a majority of the population, and where Spanish is replacing these languages at the national level, is discussed first with reference to the appropriateness of the language education policies and identification. The Canadian situation, where indigenous peoples are in a small minority, and where English and French are the national languages, is considered next. The discussion is extended and complemented by a small-scale social psychological study in Bolivia (amongst Aymara in Tiwanaku) and Canada (amongst Fisher River Cree in Manitoba and Haida in British Columbia).

  • Languages of the Middle Andes in Areal-Typological Perspective: Emphasis on Quechuan and Aymaran
    Languages of the Middle Andes in areal-typological perspective: Emphasis on Quechuan and Aymaran Willem F.H. Adelaar 1. Introduction1 Among the indigenous languages of the Andean region of Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, northern Chile and northern Argentina, Quechuan and Aymaran have traditionally occupied a dominant position. Both Quechuan and Aymaran are language families of several million speakers each. Quechuan consists of a conglomerate of geo- graphically defined varieties, traditionally referred to as Quechua “dialects”, not- withstanding the fact that mutual intelligibility is often lacking. Present-day Ayma- ran consists of two distinct languages that are not normally referred to as “dialects”. The absence of a demonstrable genetic relationship between the Quechuan and Aymaran language families, accompanied by a lack of recognizable external gen- etic connections, suggests a long period of independent development, which may hark back to a period of incipient subsistence agriculture roughly dated between 8000 and 5000 BP (Torero 2002: 123–124), long before the Andean civilization at- tained its highest stages of complexity. Quechuan and Aymaran feature a great amount of detailed structural, phono- logical and lexical similarities and thus exemplify one of the most intriguing and intense cases of language contact to be found in the entire world. Often treated as a product of long-term convergence, the similarities between the Quechuan and Ay- maran families can best be understood as the result of an intense period of social and cultural intertwinement, which must have pre-dated the stage of the proto-lan- guages and was in turn followed by a protracted process of incidental and locally confined diffusion.

  • Descriptive and Comparative Research on South American Indian Languages
    Historical overview: Descriptive and comparative research on South American Indian languages Willem F. H. Adelaar 1. Introduction The extreme language diversity that was characteristic for South America must have been a challenge to native groups throughout the subcontinent, struggling to maintain commercial and political relations with each other. Due to the absence of phonetically based writing systems in pre-European times there is hardly any documentation about the way cross-linguistic communication was achieved. How- ever, the outlines of a conscious linguistic policy can be assumed from the Incas’ success in imposing their language upon a millenary multilingual society. Second- language learning, often by users of typologically widely different languages, must have been an everyday concern to the subjects of the Inca empire. Sixteenth-cen- tury chroniclers often report in a matter-of-fact way on the ease and rapidity with which native Americans mastered the language of their conquerors, be it Quechua, Spanish or any other language. Apart from such cases of political necessity, there are indications that language played an essential role in many South American native societies and that it could be manipulated and modified in a deliberate way. The use of stylistic speech levels among the Cuna (Sherzer 1983) and of ceremo- nial discourse among the Mbyá (Cadogan 1959; Clastres 1974), the Shuar (Gnerre 1986) and the Trio (Carlin 2004), the appreciation of rhetorical skill as a requisite for leadership among the Mapuche, the distinction of female and masculine speech among the Karajá (Rodrigues 2004) and the Chiquitano (Galeote 1993), the associ- ation of language choice and family lineage among the peoples of the Vaupés region (Sorensen 1967; Aikhenvald 2002), and the association of language choice and professional occupation in highland Bolivia (Howard 1995) appear to indicate an awareness of linguistic functionality not limited to daily communication alone.

  • Ethnic Denomination and the Aymaran Language Family
    chapter 1 Ethnic Denomination and the Aymaran Language Family The ethnonym “Aymara” may be ultimately derived from the name of some group occupying the southern part of what is now the Quechua speaking area of Apurimac (Adelaar with Muysken, 2004:259). Nonetheless, the usage of the word “Aymara” as a label for this people was standard practice as early as 1567, as evident from Garci Diez de San Miguel’s report of his inspection of the province of Chucuito (1567, 14; cited in Lafaye 1964). In this document, he uses the term aymaraes to refer to the people. The language was then called Colla. It is widely believed that Colla was the name of an Aymara nation at the time of conquest, and later was the southernmost region of the Inca empire Collasuyu. However, Cerrón-Palomino disputes this claim and asserts that Colla were in fact Pukina speakers, who were the rulers of the Tiwanaku kingdom in the first and third centuries (2008:246). This hypothesis suggests that the linguistically-diverse area ruled by the Pukina came to adopt Aymara languages in their southern region. In any case, the use of “Aymara” to refer to the language may have first occurred in the writings of the lawyer, magistrate and tax collector in Potosi and Cuzco, Juan Polo de Ondegardo. This man, who later assisted Viceroy Toledo in creating a system under which the indigenous population would be ruled for the following two centuries, was very interested in Inca civilization and, in 1559, wrote a report entitled ‘On the lineage of the Yncas and how they extended their conquests’ in which he discusses land and taxation issues of the Aymara under the Inca empire.1 It took over another century for this usage of “Aymara” in reference to the language spoken by the Aymara people to become general use (Briggs, 1976:14).

  • The Languages of the Andes
    THE LANGUAGES OF THE ANDES The Andean and Pacific regions of South America are home to a remark- able variety of languages and language families, with a range of typologi- cal differences. This linguistic diversity results from a complex historical background, comprising periods of greater communication between dif- ferent peoples and languages, and periods of fragmentation and individual development. The Languages of the Andes is the first book in English to document in a single volume the indigenous languages spoken and for- merly spoken in this linguistically rich region, as well as in adjacent areas. Grouping the languages into different cultural spheres, it describes their characteristics in terms of language typology, language contact, and the social perspectives of present-day languages. The authors provide both historical and contemporary information, and illustrate the languages with detailed grammatical sketches. Written in a clear and accessible style, this book will be a valuable source for students and scholars of linguistics and anthropology alike. . is Professor of Amerindian Languages and Cul- tures at Leiden University.

  • Historia Del Conocimiento De Las Lenguas Autóctonas De Bolivia
    Historia del conocimiento de las lenguas autóctonas de Bolivia Hans van den Berg* Originalmente pensé titular esta contribución a la obra Lenguas de Bolivia ‘Historia del estudio de las len- guas autóctonas de Bolivia’. Sin embargo, pronto después de haber iniciado la investigación al respecto, me di cuenta de que el término ‘estudio’ podría ser entendido como referente exclusivamente a una ocupación teórica con estas lenguas. Por eso, opté por el término ‘conocimiento’, para distinguir entre lo práctico, lo teórico y lo literario dentro de lo que se abarca al hablar de una lengua. 1. Hacia una definición del número de lenguas de Bolivia La Copia de Curatos,1 un documento de fines del siglo XVI que presenta la lista de curatos y doctrinas que por entonces existían dentro de la diócesis de La Plata, indica la lengua o las lenguas autóctonas de los Andes que se hablaba en cada uno de ellos. Son cuatro: el aimara, el quechua, el puquina y el uruquilla. La lengua aimara resulta ser la más hablada, con tal que el compositor de la lista pudo decir al final de la misma: “La lengua general de casi todo este obispado es la aymara” (Anónimo de Charcas 1982: 190),2 lengua que por entonces se hablaba todavía preponderantemente también en los actuales departamentos de Potosí, Cochabamba y Chuquisaca, donde la lengua quechua después ha llegado a ser la principal. La lengua puquina pertenecía a las por entonces llamadas ‘lenguas generales’, pero se extinguió a comienzos del siglo XVII. Esta lengua se hablaba principalmente en curatos de la ciudad de Potosí,3 de la región noroccidental del lago Titicaca y en los antiguos partidos de Omasuyos y Larecaja del norte de La Paz.
