El presente artículo ha sido trabajado sobre la base de un artículo anterior del autor de 2009. Resumen: El artículo analiza el surgimiento y la caída de un movimiento de contraguerrilla (“La Contra”) en Nicaragua. Ubica este movimiento dentro de la Revolución Sandinista (1979 – 1990) y el programa de reformas estructurales del gobierno sandinista, trazando el inicio y el desarrollo del proceso de excl usión y alienación de segmentos de la población, especialmente en cuanto a los pueblos étnicos de la costa atlántica y al campesinado medio de la región fronteriza con Honduras. Enfatiza el papel de fuerzas ajenas (las FFAA argentinas, la CIA) en materia de entrenamiento y financiación y analiza el desarrollo de las campañas sociales y militares dentro del conflicto armado que surgió. Termina con el efecto principal: el desangramiento de la Revolución Sandinista tras la derrota militar de la Contra y la pérdida electoral en 1990 como consecuencia. Palabras clave: revolución, contrarrevolución, sandinismo, campañas militares, efectos políticos. Abstract: The article analyses the rise and fall of the Counter-guerrilla movement (the “Contra”) in Nicaragua. This process is situated in the context of 4 Revista de Nicaragüenses No. 140 – Diciembre 2019 – ISSN 2164-4268 - http://www.temasnicas.net/ the Sandinista Revolution (1979 – 1990) and the programme of structural reforms of the Sandinista government. The article traces the beginning and expansion of the process of exclusion and alienation of certain population segments, particularly with respect to the ethnicities of the Atlantic coast and the middle - class segments of the peasant population in the frontier region with Honduras. It also emphasises the role of external forces (the Argentinean army, the CIA) o n matters of training and financing. Then it analyses the development of the social and military campaigns during the armed conflict that broke out. It concludes with an analysis of the most important consequence: The economic, social and political draining of the Sandinista Revolution after the military victory against the Sandinista forces, and the electoral defeat in 1990 of the Sandinista movement. Key words: revolution, counterrevolution, sandinismo, military campaigns, political effects.

  • Southern Bahamian: Transported African American Vernacular English Or Transported Gullah?
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE Southern Bahamian: Transported African American Vernacular English or Transported Gullah? Stephanie Hackert University of Augsberg1 John A. Holm University of Coimbra ABSTRACT The relationship between Bahamian Creole English (BahCE) and Gullah and their historical connection with African American Vernacular English (AAVE) have long been a matter of dispute. In the controversy about the putative creole origins of AAVE, it was long thought that Gullah was the only remnant of a once much more widespread North American Plantation Creole and southern BahCE constituted a diaspora variety of the latter. If, however, as argued in the 1990s, AAVE never was a creole itself, whence the creole nature of southern BahCE? This paper examines the settlement history of the Bahamas and the American South to argue that BahCE and Gullah are indeed closely related, so closely in fact, that southern BahCE must be regarded as a diaspora variety of the latter rather than of AAVE. INTRODUCTION English (AAVE) spoken by the slaves Lexical and syntactic studies of Bahamian brought in by Loyalists after the Creole English (Holm, 1982; Shilling, 1977) Revolutionary War that predominated over led Holm (1983) to conclude that on southern the variety that had developed largely on the Bahamian islands such as Exuma, it was northern Bahamian islands.

  • Pidgins and Creoles
    Chapter 7: Contact Languages I: Pidgins and Creoles `The Negroes who established themselves on the Djuka Creek two centuries ago found Trio Indians living on the Tapanahoni. They maintained continuing re- lations with them....The trade dialect shows clear traces of these circumstances. It consists almost entirely of words borrowed from Trio or from Negro English' (Verslag der Toemoekhoemak-expeditie, by C.H. De Goeje, 1908). `The Nez Perces used two distinct languages, the proper and the Jargon, which differ so much that, knowing one, a stranger could not understand the other. The Jargon is the slave language, originating with the prisoners of war, who are captured in battle from the various neighboring tribes and who were made slaves; their different languages, mixing with that of their masters, formed a jargon....The Jargon in this tribe was used in conversing with the servants and the court language on all other occasions' (Ka-Mi-Akin: Last Hero of the Yakimas, 2nd edn., by A.J. Splawn, 1944, p. 490). The Delaware Indians `rather design to conceal their language from us than to properly communicate it, except in things which happen in daily trade; saying that it is sufficient for us to understand them in that; and then they speak only half sentences, shortened words...; and all things which have only a rude resemblance to each other, they frequently call by the same name' (Narratives of New Netherland 1609-1664, by J. Franklin Jameson, 1909, p. 128, quoting a comment made by the Dutch missionary Jonas Micha¨eliusin August 1628). The list of language contact typologies at the beginning of Chapter 4 had three entries under the heading `extreme language mixture': pidgins, creoles, and bilingual mixed lan- guages.

The words, !he intonation, the phrasingit sounded just like !he way I talked! “Oava ya, Miss-da mee aksin ifyu need wa taxi.” 1 peered through the mesh border, which separated arriving passengers from the wai- ting park area at the Bluefields airport. And there he was. A young, outspoken Nicaraguan taxi driver was energetically waving at me. He saw me as a potential fare - 1 just gaped and gaped at him. To me, he could have been my brother, uncle, boyfriend (okay, okay, except for the age difference) or fellow citizen of my home country of Belize. Not only did he look like me he sounded likeme. Well, almos!. The Nikaragwan Kriol (Nicaraguan Creole) he was speaking had slight grammatical and phraseology differences from the Bileez Kriol (Belize Creole) 1 speak. For example, his “da mee aksin ifyu need wa taxi” would be said in Bileez Kriol as “da mee di aks if yu need wahn taxi.” Belize is a multicultural country of sorne 250,000 people located north of Nicaragua, just above Honduras. lts eastern border faces the Caribbean Sea. 1 was in Bluefields to assist with a Kriol language appreciation and trai- ning workshop for sorne 35 language teachers who taught in schools situated in Nicaragua’s Atlantic Coas!

  • Rhotic Production in the Spanish of Bluefields, Nicaragua, a Language Contact Situation
    Rhotic production in the Spanish of Bluefields, Nicaragua, a language contact situation DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Karen Lopez Alonzo Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Terrell A. Morgan, Co-Advisor Dr. Rebeka Campos-Astorkiza, Co-advisor Dr. Anna Babel Copyrighted by Karen Lopez Alonzo 2016 Abstract This dissertation researches the production of rhotics in the Spanish of Bluefields, Nicaragua. This is a unique language contact situation between Spanish, the most recent language in the region, English/Kriol, Miskitu, and Sumo/Ulwa. Realizations of non- canonic rhotics have been reported in the Spanish of Bluefields speakers whose first language is not Spanish, and tap and retroflex realizations have been observed instead of the standard trill. The tap and the trill are recognized as normative in Spanish, and they are contrastive intervocalically. The rhotic observations in Bluefields are based on impressionistic descriptions (Lipski 2007; Rosales Solis 2008). Thus, to confirm and expand these earlier reports, I present a detailed sociophonetic study and explore the effect of different factors on rhotic production. I analyze linguistic factors (stress and phonological context) and sociolinguistic factors (first language, age and education level) that may influence the variation of these sounds. I study the distribution of the types of rhotics in four different positions: 1) Intervocalic (e.g. caro ‘expensive’ [ˈka.ɾo] vs. carro ‘car’ [ˈka.ro]); 2) The beginning of the word (e.g. ramo ‘bunch’ [ˈra.mo]); 3) Complex onsets (e.g.

OLIEN WERE THE MISKITO INDIANS BLACK? ETHNICITY, POLITICS, AND PLAGIARISM IN THE MID-NINETEENTH CENTURY The anthropological research of Ephraim George Squier, a nineteenth centu- ry scholar, diplomat, journalist, and entrepreneur, has come under scrutiny in several articles in recent years (Barnhart 1983, Mould de Pease 1986, Olien 1985). Squier became famous, in the 1840s, for his publications on North American archaeology. During the 1850s, he published extensively on Cen- tral America, as a result of having been appointed U.S. charge d'affaires to Central America from 1849 to 1850. Later he published a book and a number of articles on Peru, based on his experiences while serving as U.S. Commis- sioner to Peru in 1863-4. This article will focus on Squier's work in the 1850s, when his publications were concerned with Central America. In Squier's writings on Central America, political motives often dominated over scholarly research and virtually all of his publications include political propaganda. In particular, data that applied to the Miskito Indians of Nicaragua and Honduras, and their kings, were distorted (Olien 1985: 117- 125). One type of distortion, or misrepresentation, involved his consistent portrayal of the Miskito Indians as blacks. One of the Squier's Central American writings was the novel Waikna; or, adventures on the Mosquito Shore, that he published in 1855 under the pseudonym Samuel A.
