SIGNED: 4 ACKNOWLEGEMENTS This study was made possible by the generous help of numerous people throughout my journey as a doctoral student. First I would like to thank my teachers and mentors at the University of Arizona. Tad Park, my major advisor, has been especially important in the completion of this project, sharing much knowledge, advice and professional insight since my first days at the Department of Anthropology. Many others, including Ana Maria Alonso, Helen and Richard Henderson, the late Robert McC. Netting, Michael Schiffer and Jennifer Croissant, and Thomas Weaver have also provided a diverse and extensive scholarship in which to explore and to leam. I have benefited greatly from the exceptional input and guidance of these scholars and others, for which I am very grateful. My thanks also go to the past and present Department Heads, William Longacre and John Olsen and to the Directors of Graduate Studies, Jane Hill and Barbara Mills, for all of their advice and support. The staff at Anthropology has always been a great help to me, and I am especially indebted to Dirk Harris, Colleen Miles, Barbara Fregoso and Mary Stephenson for their helpfulness and encouragement. I am very appreciative for the assistance received from the US AID funded Bean/Cowpea Collaborative Research Support Program (Washington State University, Sokoine University of Agriculture) and the Wenner Gren Foundation, the two institutions that provided funding for this research. Loma Butler, a former project leader of the CRSP, pointed me toward Mgeta as a field site, and made many useful suggestions regarding fieldwork methodology. I thank the researchers and staff of the CRSP for their support during fieldwork, including the late Grace Msimbe, Robert Mabagala, Susan Nchimbi Msolla, Flavianus Magayane and Kibiby Mtenga. A number of fellow students at Sokoine University and the University of Arizona have provided collegial interaction and friendship and I would especially like to thank Jacqueline Miller, Kristin Loftsdottir, Hsain Ilahiane and Kathy McCaston. I also am very grateful to many friends who have never tired in their support for my project and graciously shared their much-needed energy at those inevitable low mo.nients, especially Michelle Huber, Alex Georgakopoulos, Eric Ellman, Ross Smart, Diana Wilson, and Ami Vikingur Sveinsson. Deo Ngonyani, professor of Linguistics at Michigan State University, was very kind in assisting with some translations from his native tongue, Kiswahili. This work would not be possible without the engagement, understanding and hospitality of the Waluguru farmers of Mgeta, who encouraged and inspired my work in countless direct and indirect ways. I would particularly like to acknowledge the assistance and friendship of marehemu Teresia MIele, Simporian Mahenge, Jovita Joseph, Bibiana Joseph, Mzee and Mama Mkwidu, Mzee Mkali, Yolanda, Grace, Teresia, Lucy and Charlie Mkwidu, Mzee Mahenge and Binti Bigo, Mzee Kusenge and Antonia Peter, Mzee Ngoroma, Mzee Alex Bigo, Binti Likova and Mzee Kidava. Finally, the deepest gratitude goes to my parents, Olga Gemignani and the late Ermo Gemignani for their constant support, love and guidance throughout my extended years of education. I also thank my siblings and their families and my husband Kofi Nouve, whose endless patience, cheer and kindness have allowed me to keep all things in perspective, navigate the obstacles, and to ultimately realize this goal. 5 To my father, Ermo Bernard Gemignani 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES 9 ABSTRACT 10 1.

  • Monolingualism Via Multilingualism: a Case Study of Language Use in the West Ugandan Town of Hoima
    African Study Monographs, 34 (1): 1–25, March 2013 1 MONOLINGUALISM VIA MULTILINGUALISM: A CASE STUDY OF LANGUAGE USE IN THE WEST UGANDAN TOWN OF HOIMA Shigeki KAJI Graduate School of Asian and African Area Studies, Kyoto University ABSTRACT Multilingualism is one of the most salient features of language use in Africa and, at first sight, Uganda appears to be just one example of this practice. However, as Uganda has no lingua franca that is widely used by its entire population, questions about how people cope with multilingualism arise. Answers to such questions can be found in the fact that people are able to create a monolingual state in a given area because everyone is multilingual. That is, people speak their own language in their own domain and speak other peoples’ languages when they go to the latter’s domains. This conclusion emerged from interviews conducted with 100 inhabitants of Hoima city in western Uganda, an area primarily inhabited by the Nyoro people. The linguistic situation in Hoima provides a valuable case study of what can happen in the absence of a fully developed lingua franca and can contribute to broader discussions of language use in Africa. Key Words: Lingua franca; Multilingualism; Hoima; Nyoro; Uganda. INTRODUCTION I have conducted linguistic research in Uganda since 2001. The main themes of my research relate to the grammatical and lexical characteristics of little-known languages in the area. In the course of research, however, I noticed differences between the use of language in Uganda and that in the regions where I had studied before.

  • Lunyole Grammar; It Does Not Attempt to Make a Statement for Or Against a Particular Formal Linguistic Theory
    A PARTIAL GRAMMAR SKETCH OF LUNYOLE WITH EMPHASIS ON THE APPLICATIVE CONSTRUCTION(S) _______________________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the School of Intercultural Studies Department of Applied Linguistics & TESOL Biola University _______________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics _______________________ by Douglas Allen Wicks May 2006 ABSTRACT A PARTIAL GRAMMAR SKETCH OF LUNYOLE WITH EMPHASIS ON THE APPLICATIVE CONSTRUCTION(S) Douglas Allen Wicks This thesis provides a general grammatical description of Lunyole, a Bantu language of Eastern Uganda. After a brief description of the phonology, it describes the morphology and basic syntax of Lunyole, following Payne’s (1997) functional approach. This thesis then more deeply describes Lunyole’s applicative constructions in which an argument is added to the verb complex. Lunyole has two applicative marking constructions. The more productive one uses the -ir suffix on verbs of any valence in conjunction with a wide range of semantic roles. The other applicative construction is formed from a locative class prefix and is used only for locative arguments on unaccusative intransitive verbs. Similar locative morphemes may co-occur with the -ir applicative morpheme, but not as applicative markers; instead they clarify the relationship between arguments.

  • Awra Amba RJ 300612 EN
    Robert JOUMARD Awra Amba, a current experiment of utopian socialism June 2012 Robert Joumard is emeritus senior scientist (Ifsttar), in Bron, France. Contact: [email protected] Summary This is a review of the available literature on the Ethiopian utopian community of Awra Amba, i.e. mainly of four master reports and secondly of news reports and accounts. It allows us to show the troubled historic evolution of this community founded in 1972 by a small group of illiterate peasants around one of them. Then, we present the values – honesty, equality, solidarity, rationalism – which are founding the community and are at the heart of its pattern of living. Next we present the social organization of this village of 400 inhabitants, through its institutions, economic activities, gender equality, especially at work, marriage, solidarity between members and especially with the elders, children activities, funeral and management of internal conflicts.
