INTRODUCTION This book contains a selection of articles based on papers presented at two different symposia on the indigenous languages of South America. The first of these two symposia took place July 10–14, 2000, at Warsaw University, during the 50th International Congress of Americanists in Warsaw, Poland. This symposium was entitled Lenguas Amazónicas y de las áreas adyacentes: aspectos descriptivos y comparativos / Languages in the Amazon and its neighbouring areas: descriptive and comparative aspects and was organised by Marília Facó Soares, José Alvarez and Hein van der Voort. The second symposium took place two and a half months later, on September 28–30, 2000, at Leiden University, Leiden, The Netherlands. This symposium was entitled Workshop on Bolivian and Rondonian indigenous languages and was organised by Mily Crevels and Simon van de Kerke. It represented the 3rd Workshop on Amerindian Languages organised at Leiden University. Because of the high degree of similarity and overlap between the topics of these symposia, the editors of the planned proceedings decided to collaborate on a single volume of articles on the indigenous languages of South America. The indigenous languages of South America form a highly diverse group. This part of the world boasts of an amazing wealth of genetic linguistic phyla and isolated languages and stocks. A large part of this wealth has not yet been documented and studied to any degree of satisfaction. Therefore, many proposals for genetic linguistic relationships are still completely unproven and, since a thorough attempt at linguistic classification is also a prerequisite for the label ‘isolated’, most of the so-called isolated languages are better considered as unclassified so far. Furthermore, many of the special grammatical and phonological characteristics of these languages will continue to go unnoticed by general and typological linguistics until serious fieldwork is conducted and subsequent publications become available. Unfortunately, the majority of the approximately 375 indigenous languages spoken in South America are in danger of disappearance under the pressure of national and colonial languages. This situation is, among other things, directly related to the fact that the indigenous peoples have been suffering physical, social, cultural and economic discrimination and genocide at the hands of Western invaders since the sixteenth century, and that the ecological destruction of their traditional habitat continues relentlessly until this very day. Therefore, the study of indigenous languages should not only bring scientific data and insights within the confines of its own discipline, but it should also provide a scientific basis for language preservation efforts and be co-instrumental in the emancipation of the indigenous peoples. Furthermore, the sharing of field experiences in wider circles may result in a higher level of general awareness of the value of cultural and linguistic diversity. With this collection of articles, the editors intended to provide an outlet for publication of the results of ongoing research on South American Indian languages. Hopefully it will inspire 2 SOUTH AMERICAN LANGUAGES discussion and exchange between colleagues and stimulate others to participate in carrying out the tasks that

  • A First Comparison of Pronominal and Demonstrative Systems in the Cariban Language Family*
    A FIRST COMPARISON OF PRONOMINAL AND DEMONSTRATIVE SYSTEMS IN THE CARIBAN LANGUAGE FAMILY* Sérgio Meira Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen, The Netherlands 1. Introduction The Cariban language family is composed of approximately 25 languages (numbers ranging from 20 to 50, depending on different researchers’ opinions about which varieties are dialects and which are independent languages), spoken by approximately 100,000 people in lowland South America, from south-eastern Colombia (where Karihona is spoken) to the Oiapoque river in Brazil (Karinya), from the coast of the Guianas (Karinya) down to the southern Xingu area in central Brazil (Bakairí). The field of comparative Cariban studies was initiated more than two hundred years ago, when the relationship between a number of Cariban languages was first noticed by Filippo Salvadore Gilij (1782). Unfortunately, the historical-comparative method has been only very rarely applied to Cariban languages, for two main reasons: (1) most of the languages are, to this day, poorly known, which means that there is very little reliable material to compare; (2) most people who compared Cariban languages were not trained comparativists. Girard (1971) remains the only methodical attempt at reconstructing Proto-Cariban lexical items and proposing a classification (unfortunately based on a still very poor data base). In the area of morphosyntax, Gildea (1998) presents the first reconstruction of the person-marking http://www.etnolinguistica.org/illa and tense-aspect-mood (TAM) systems of Proto-Cariban and their syntactic properties. This file is freely available for download at The present work attempts to contribute to the development of historical studies in the Cariban family by presenting a first preliminary reconstruction of the pronominal system of Proto-Cariban (including non-third-person and third-person, i.e.

Epps and Salanova: The Languages of Amazonia ARTICLE The Languages of Amazonia Patience Epps University of Texas at Austin Andrés Pablo Salanova University of Ottawa Introduction Amazonia is a linguistic treasure-trove. In this region, defined roughly as the area of the Amazon and Orinoco basins, the diversity of languages is immense, with some 300 indigenous languages corresponding to over 50 distinct ‘genealogical’ units (see Rodrigues 2000) – language families or language isolates for which no relationship to any other has yet been conclusively demonstrated; as distinct, for example, as Japanese and Spanish, or German and Basque (see section 12 below). Yet our knowledge of these languages has long been minimal, so much so that the region was described only a decade ago as a “linguistic black box" (Grinevald 1998:127).

The language that is normally called ‘Aymara’ is well-known to be spoken in much of the Altiplano , the ‘high plain’ at an altitude of around 4000 m that covers much of western Bolivia and the far south of Peru. Aymara is spoken all around the region of the Bolivian capital La Paz, and further north to Lake Titicaca, the famous archaeological site of Tiwanaku, and into the southernmost regions of Peru, around Huancané, Puno and Moquegua. South of La Paz, Aymara is spoken in the Oruro and Poopó regions and beyond, across the wild and beautiful border areas into northern Chile. What is much less well-known, however, is that this Altiplano Aymara is not alone! A language of the very same family is spoken almost a thousand kilometres further north, in central Peru, in the semi-desert mountains of the province of Yauyos , not far south and inland from Lima.

  • Browsing Through Bias: the Library of Congress Classification and Subject Headings for African American Studies and LGBTQIA Studies
    Browsing through Bias: The Library of Congress Classification and Subject Headings for African American Studies and LGBTQIA Studies Sara A. Howard and Steven A. Knowlton Abstract The knowledge organization system prepared by the Library of Con- gress (LC) and widely used in academic libraries has some disadvan- tages for researchers in the fields of African American studies and LGBTQIA studies. The interdisciplinary nature of those fields means that browsing in stacks or shelflists organized by LC Classification requires looking in numerous locations. As well, persistent bias in the language used for subject headings, as well as the hierarchy of clas- sification for books in these fields, continues to “other” the peoples and topics that populate these titles. This paper offers tools to help researchers have a holistic view of applicable titles across library shelves and hopes to become part of a larger conversation regarding social responsibility and diversity in the library community.1 Introduction The neat division of knowledge into tidy silos of scholarly disciplines, each with its own section of a knowledge organization system (KOS), has long characterized the efforts of libraries to arrange their collections of books. The KOS most commonly used in American academic libraries is the Li- brary of Congress Classification (LCC). LCC, developed between 1899 and 1903 by James C. M. Hanson and Charles Martel, is based on the work of Charles Ammi Cutter. Cutter devised his “Expansive Classification” to em- body the universe of human knowledge within twenty-seven classes, while Hanson and Martel eventually settled on twenty (Chan 1999, 6–12). Those classes tend to mirror the names of academic departments then prevail- ing in colleges and universities (e.g., Philosophy, History, Medicine, and Agriculture).

  • Some Data and Considerations from Canada and Bolivia
    BISAL 1, 2006, 107-128 Indigenous Identity and Language: Some Considerations from Bolivia and Canada * Itesh Sachdev School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, London, UK Denise Y. Arnold and Juan de Dios Yapita** Universidad PIEB and Instituto de Lengua y Cultura Aymara, La Paz, Bolivia ______________________________________________________________ Abstract The focus of this paper is on indigenous identity and language in Bolivia and Canada. In both these contexts there is great reluctance to treating indigenous peoples as those with internationally recognised juridical rights. The original inhabitants of North and South America have been referred to by a variety of labels (stemming from their distinct colonial histories) including “Native,” “Indian,” “Indigenous,” “First Nations,” etc. These group labels, when chosen and/or accepted, represent core symbols of culture and express meaningful identities. Moreover, identity may be formed, experienced and communicated through such labels. Education is an important means by which such labels are accepted and identities are formed. In this paper the relationship between identity, language and education is explored amongst indigenous communities in Bolivia and Canada. The Bolivian situation, where Aymara and Quechua speakers constitute a majority of the population, and where Spanish is replacing these languages at the national level, is discussed first with reference to the appropriateness of the language education policies and identification. The Canadian situation, where indigenous peoples are in a small minority, and where English and French are the national languages, is considered next. The discussion is extended and complemented by a small-scale social psychological study in Bolivia (amongst Aymara in Tiwanaku) and Canada (amongst Fisher River Cree in Manitoba and Haida in British Columbia).

In September 2019, in response to a letter from Greenpeace UK, Aldi and Waitrose both confirmed JBS- linked supplies (Aldi: Moy Park and Tulip; Waitrose: Moy Park). In its FAQs, under ‘Who supplies you with chicken?’, Nando’s names Moy Park as one of its suppliers; Waitrose also lists Moy Park as a long-term poultry supplier on its website under ‘About our chicken’. In January 2020, a Bloomberg database chain- of-custody search identified trade between JBS subsidiary Pilgrim’s Pride (the parent company of both Moy Park and Tulip) and the following: Burger King, McDonald’s, Sainsbury’s, Tesco and YUM!

  • Performing Blackness in the Danza De Caporales
    Roper, Danielle. 2019. Blackface at the Andean Fiesta: Performing Blackness in the Danza de Caporales. Latin American Research Review 54(2), pp. 381–397. DOI: https://doi.org/10.25222/larr.300 OTHER ARTS AND HUMANITIES Blackface at the Andean Fiesta: Performing Blackness in the Danza de Caporales Danielle Roper University of Chicago, US [email protected] This study assesses the deployment of blackface in a performance of the Danza de Caporales at La Fiesta de la Virgen de la Candelaria in Puno, Peru, by the performance troupe Sambos Illimani con Sentimiento y Devoción. Since blackface is so widely associated with the nineteenth- century US blackface minstrel tradition, this article develops the concept of “hemispheric blackface” to expand common understandings of the form. It historicizes Sambos’ deployment of blackface within an Andean performance tradition known as the Tundique, and then traces the way multiple hemispheric performance traditions can converge in a single blackface act. It underscores the amorphous nature of blackface itself and critically assesses its role in producing anti-blackness in the performance. Este ensayo analiza el uso de “blackface” (literalmente, cara negra: término que designa el uso de maquillaje negro cubriendo un rostro de piel más pálida) en la Danza de Caporales puesta en escena por el grupo Sambos Illimani con Sentimiento y Devoción que tuvo lugar en la fiesta de la Virgen de la Candelaria en Puno, Perú. Ya que el “blackface” es frecuentemente asociado a una tradición estadounidense del siglo XIX, este artículo desarrolla el concepto de “hemispheric blackface” (cara-negra hemisférica) para dar cuenta de elementos comunes en este género escénico.

  • An Introduction to Three Nambikwara Ethnohistories
    An Introduction To Three Nambikwara Ethnohistories January, 2019: Edwin B. Reesink – Allegories of Wildness – Three Nambikwara ethnohistories of sociocultural and linguistic change and continuity –Rozenberg Publishers – ISBN 978 90 3610 173 8 – 2010 – will be online soon. International fame for the Nambikwara came from the central role they play in the work of the late Claude Lévi-Strauss. In his most popular book, Tristes Tropiques, over fifty years ago, he already had painted a particular picture of the Nambikwara way of life. Until the end of his long life this great scholar reminisced about his formative years in anthropology and the influence of the several Indian peoples he encountered during his travels in the interior of Brazil. In effect, the Nambikwara, as seen in the quote, occupy a special place, one not just of scientific interest but particularly one of a sympathy and feeling sometimes not readily associated with this anthropologist. At the time of the travels by Lévi- Strauss and the other people of his expedition, the dry season of 1938, the Nambikwara happened to be in an intermediate phase of their history: enjoying their political autonomy yet already shaped and devastated by the encroachment of Brazilian society. The sparse, intermediate but regular contacts with Brazilians made them susceptible to being devastated yet further by epidemics. Previously, from 1907 onward, the Brazilians by means of the so-called Rondon Mission penetrated into the vast territories in which lived a large number of different local groups who each considered themselves to be different from their neighbours. Rondon, the State and later researchers recognized this diversity but ultimately still tended to maintain the idea of “one Nambikwara people”.
