Informational and referential hierarchy Clause-linking strategies in Austronesian-Oceanic languages* Isabelle Bril LACITO, (Laboratoire des Langues et Civilisations à Tradition Orale), Fédération Typologie et Universaux Linguistiques, CNRS This paper analyses clause-linking strategies in mostly Austronesian languages, with particular focus on the functions of informational and referential hierarchy strategies in the architecture of complex clauses. Informational (topic, focus) hierarchy and its markers, structure clauses as subordinate via the contrast between presupposition vs. assertion. Referential hierarchy and its markers (endophoric demonstratives and definite markers), are another subordinating strategy based on the contrast between already referential/backgrounded clause vs. asserted main clause. Paths of evolution leading from coordinators or from endophoric demonstratives to informational hierarchy markers and to subordinating conjunctions or constructions are more specifically discussed.

  • Richard Feinberg, Ed., Seafaring in the Contemporary Pacific Islands: Studies in Continuity and Change
    reviews Page 121 Monday, February 12, 2001 2:29 PM Reviews 121 Richard Feinberg, ed., Seafaring in the Contemporary Pacific Islands: Studies in Continuity and Change. DeKalb: Northern Illinois University Press, 1995. Pp. 245, illus. US$35 cloth. Reviewed by Nicholas J. Goetzfridt, University of Guam There has been an interesting as well as a tired dichotomy of thinking about “voyaging” in the Pacific. Interesting because of questions concerned with the ability of voyagers to control their efforts across vast areas of a watery space in order to reach land and, in the settlement eras, to successfully prosper and possibly engage in return voyages of communication. These speculations, attempts at documentation through the paucity of European references to these voyagers, and the practical experiments undertaken by David Lewis and Ben Finney are all concerned with what must be seen as incredible journeys, regardless of how they were actually achieved. The thinking has been tired because of a habitual practice in all kinds of literature, both scholarly and popular, to assign an either/or identity to “voy- aging.” As we are occasionally told in comments usually tucked away in the bowels of some greater concern with modernity, this voyaging, for all its illus- trious past, is now “dead.” And as such, it wallows in the past. It is only the romantics, the individuals pricked by a yearning for the spectacular, who resist recognizing this foundational fact of Pacific life. Outboard motors and jet planes have nothing to do with this heritage. It is a loss basic to “contact” reviews Page 122 Monday, February 12, 2001 2:29 PM 122 Pacific Studies, Vol.

  • Born to Sing: Fiji's "Singing Culture" and Implications for Music Education in Canada
    BORN TO SING: FIJI'S "SINGING CULTURE" AND IMPLICATIONS FOR MUSIC EDUCATION IN CANADA JOAN RUSSELL McGiI/ University ABSTRACT. The first part of trus paper describes the singing practices of selected Fijiancommunities, and identifies sorne of the social conditions that support widespread and skillful singing. Next, in order to interpret Fijian musical practices, it proposes a cultural grammar - a set of guidelines or rules that define what individuals within a society, community, or group have to know, produce, predict, interpret or evaluate within a given setting or social group in order to participate appropriately (Heath, 1982; Heath, 1983). In the second part of the paper the proposed cultural grammar is used to generate suggestions for developing a singing culture in a Canadian school. Nt POUR CHANTER: LA "CULTURE DU CHANT" À flDJI ET LES IMPLICATIONS POUR L'ENSEIGNEMENT DE LA MUSIQUE AU CANADA RÉSUMÉ. La première partie de ce rapport décrit la pratique du chant de certaines communautés fidjiennes tout en mettant en évidence quelques unes des conditions sociales contribuant à répandre l'art du chant. Pour interpréter les pratiques musicales fidjiennes, l'auteur propose une grammaire culturelle, à savoir un ensemble de directives ou de règles définissant ce que les sujets d'une société, d'une collectivité ou d'un groupe doivent connaître, produire, prévoir, interpréter ou évaluer dans un milieu ou un groupe social donné pour y participer pleinement. (Heath, 1982; Heath, 1983). Dans la deuxième partie de ce rapport, la grammaire culturelle proposée sert à émettre des conseils en vue de l'élaboration d'une culture du chant dans une école canadienne.

  • Rotuman Identity in the Electronic Age
    ALAN HOWARD and JAN RENSEL Rotuman identity in the Electronic Age For some groups cultural identity comes easy; at least it's relatively unprob- lematic. As Fredrik Barth (1969) pointed out many years ago, where bounda­ ries between groups are fixed and rigid, theories of group distinctiveness thrive. Boundaries can be set according to a wide range of physical, social, or cultural characteristics ranging from skin colour, religious affiliation or beliefs, occupations, to what people eat, and so on. Social hierarchy also can play a determining role, especially when a dominating group's social theory divides people into categories on the basis of geographical origins, blood­ lines, or some other defining characteristic, restricting their identity options. In the United States, for example, the historical category of 'negro' allowed little room for choice; any US citizen with an African ancestor was assigned to the category regardless of personal preference. Although in Polynesia social boundaries have traditionally been porous, cultural politics has transformed categories like 'New Zealand Maori' and 'Hawaiian' into strong identities, despite more personal choice and somewhat flexible boundaries. In these cases, where indigenous people were subjugated by European or American colonists, a long period of historically muted iden­ tity gave way in the last decades of the twentieth century to a Polynesian cul­ tural renaissance that has been accompanied by a hardening of social catego­ ries and a dramatic strengthening of Maori and Hawaiian identities. Samoans also have a relatively strong sense of cultural identity, but for a different reason. In their case, identity is reinforced by a commitment to fa'asamoa, the Samoan way of life.
