  • The Naming of Birds by Nunamiut Eskimo
    THE NAMING OF BIRDS BY NUNAMIUT ESKIMO Laurence Irving* T IS rare for people of two different cultures to have as good an opportunity of comparingtheir knowledge as Simon Paneakand I had when I was learningI the Nunamiut Eskimo names for birds in the Anaktuvuk Pass region, interiorarctic Alaska. The scientific list of birds of that regionwhich I prepared provided me with a check on the completeness and accuracy of the Eskimo method of naming part of the local environment. Our relations were sufficiently close and prolonged so that we could both ascertain that we were designating the same birds by our Eskimo and English names. The English names of birds used in this study have been modified by convention of scientists to express taxonomic designations, and they are in no sense popular names. The Nunamiut names are those used by a small group of people to indicate birds in their environment.Having no knowledge of natural history in times or places outside their own small community’s exper- ience, weshould not seek in theNunamiut names forthe implications of scientific taxonomy. The Eskimo preserves hisnames withoutwriting or museum to serve his memory. We who depend upon written records marvel at the persistence of stable knowledge which can be fixed in oral records, but we should recall that a large degree of stability is inherent in speech. Anaktuvuk Pass leads approximately north and south through the centre of the BrooksRange. About onehundred miles north of thearctic circle thesouthern border of these mountains extends from the Yukon Territory to the western arctic coast of Alaska.

The fourth section, "Language Politics," treats several aspects of linguistic politics, from special attempts to deal with the ethnic, religious, or sex-specific elements of vocabulary to the broader issues of language both as a reflection of the public consciousness and the U.S. Constitution and as a refuge for the most private forms of expression.

  • Reassessing Political Alliances Over Canada's Twentieth Century
    Presidential Address Confronting Our Colonial Past: Reassessing Political Alliances over Canada’s Twentieth Century JOAN SANGSTER Abstract This article examines examples of settler-initiated political alliances with Indigenous peoples in Canada over the twentieth century, placing them in their social and historical context, and assessing their insights as well as ideological and material limitations. I explore four very different examples, ranging from protests over the dispossession of land to attempts to preserve Indigenous cultures to the post-World War II organization of the Indian Eskimo Association and youth Indigenous projects associ- ated with the Company of Young Canadians. Past settler efforts to create alliances or speak on behalf of Indigenous peoples incorporated multi- ple intentions and political ideas; they included both efforts at advocacy and partnership and paternal replications of colonial thinking. Assessing their complex histories is an important part of our efforts to grapple crit- ically with Canada’s history of colonialism. Discussions of the colonizer’s moral and political responsibilities in a settler country are very much on the political agenda, from critiques of the occupy movement’s use of the language of “possession” to Paulette Regan’s infl uential argument that we need to “unsettle the settler within,” to academic writing on the incommensurability of decolonization.1 Settler nations, some claim, “are not immigrant nations.” No matter what their origins, experience, or connection to other forms of colonialism, all settlers became trespassers on Indigenous “land, law, epistemologies.”2 To embrace this view would unsettle some accepted precepts of Canadian history. Given that we are immersed in discussions about 150 years of Confederation and colonialism, and given my own evolution as a scholar at Trent University, with its historic commitment to JOURNAL OF THE CHA 2017 REVUE DE LA SHC 2017 New Series, Vol.
