Nowadays, many artists perform on the local and international stages from musical, social or linguistic margins. Their success is due to the democratization of production and music broadcasting tools. As this phenomenon becomes more and more common and popular, “marginal” artists and their communities blur the lines between the mainstream and the underground, by the means of performing in their vernacular and promoting these authentic language practices.

Gross: French Language in the Americas Katelyn Gross 1 French Language in the Americas: Quebec, Acadia, and Louisiana Katelyn Gross The French language underwent many changes between the development of French from Latin, to Old French, and to Middle French. French would continue to develop inside of France thereafter, but the French language would also be exported to other parts of the world and those varieties of French would have their own characteristic changes. French explorers and colonizers moved into the Americas, permanently settling what is today Quebec, many parts of Canada, and Louisiana in the United States. In this paper, I will focus on the linguistic differences between metropolitan France and French spoken in Quebec, Acadia, and Louisiana.

  • Discourse Markers “Well” and “Ben” in Chiac Emilie Leblanc and Selena Phillips-Boyle This Paper Investigates the Use Of
    Discourse Markers “well” and “ben” in Chiac Emilie LeBlanc and Selena Phillips-Boyle This paper investigates the use of the discourse markers “well” and “ben” in speakers of Chiac, a dialect of Acadian French in southeast New Brunswick. Chiac is characterised by extensive borrowings and code-switching with English (Chevalier 2007; Perrot 1995; King 2008). Previous work analyses the discourse marker “well” (Schiffrin 1987a), “ben” (Bruxelles and Traverso 2001; D’Amboise and Léard 1996; Hansen 1995), and the alternations between “well” and “ben” in Acadian French (Chevalier 2000, 2002). The present study fills a gap in the literature by using quantitative and qualitative methodologies to address the following questions: 1) What linguistic and social factors condition the use of “well” and “ben” in this variety? and 2) What discursive function(s) are accomplished by the use of "well" or "ben", and how can we explain why speakers chose to employ one variant over the other? The corpus used for the present study was collected in 2012 and includes ten participants, students at the two French-medium high schools in Moncton: Mathieu-Martin and L’Odyssée. The participants are between the ages of 15 and 17 and are native French speakers. There are four male and six female participants. The data were collected through sociolinguistic interviews conducted by a native speaker of Chiac. The participants were each interviewed for approximately 30 minutes. The data have been transcribed and coded in Elan (Wittenburg et al. 2006). We exclude some tokens from the present study, namely fixed expressions (for example, “well then”, “ben là”, “ben c’est ça) along with the use of “ben” as a conjunction.

  • Francophone Dynamics in a Translated Canada: from the Margins to the Centre and Back Denise Merkle
    Francophone Dynamics in a Translated Canada: From the Margins to the Centre and Back Denise Merkle Abstract This paper examines French Acadian literature’s at times conflicted relationship with the target language, English, the other official language of New Brunswick. A broad survey of Acadian literature since 1960 is punctuated with brief discussions of selected works in their socio- political context of production. Translations of these works can be placed variously on a continuum that ranges from extremes of vertical to horizontal translation. At one extreme, vertical translation homogenises a fractured identity into the dominant language through annexation. Alternatively, at the foreignising extreme, a translator may opt for a horizontal, minoritising, translation strategy in an effort to decentre the traditional power relationship between the two cultures. This paper gives an overview introduction to these strategies used to translate Acadian literature. Introduction Along with its reputation as a bilingual country, Canada is known throughout the world as a country of immigration and immigrants, and with (im)migration comes cultural and linguistic diversity. While today’s multilingualism in such cities as Toronto, Montréal and Vancouver is impressively diverse, it must not be forgotten that Canada has a long history of multilingualism. The first French explorers exchanged with First Nations communities who spoke Iroquois, Huron and Cree, among other languages. The extent to which Canada’s First Nations communities have been marginalised is generating mounting national and international concern. This paper will concentrate on another group that has been marginalised in Canada, although to a lesser extent than Canada’s First Nations peoples: Canada’s Acadian population.
