GEMA Online® Journal of Language Studies 143 Volume 15(1), February 2015 Truncation of Some Akan Personal Names Kwasi Adomako [email protected] University of Education, Winneba, Ghana ABSTRACT This paper examines some morphophonological processes in Akan personal names with focus on the former process. The morphological processes of truncation of some indigenous personal names identified among the Akan (Asante) ethnic group of Ghana are discussed. The paper critically looks at some of these postlexical morpheme boundary processes in some Akan personal names realized in the truncated form when two personal names interact. In naming a child in a typical Akan, specifically in Asante‟s custom, a family name is given to the child in addition to his/her „God-given‟ name or day-name. We observe truncation and some phonological processes such as vowel harmony, compensatory lengthening, etc. at the morpheme boundaries in casual speech context. These morphophonological processes would be analyzed within the Optimality Theory framework where it would be claimed that there is templatic constraint that demands that the base surname minimally surfaces as disyllable irrespective of the syllable size of the base surname.

  • Editor's Introduction
    Capturing Students’ Target Language Exposure Collaboratively, on Video – The Akan (Twi) Example Seth Antwi Ofori University of Wisconsin – Madison Abstract: The video project at the center of this paper is one of the strategies the author has been utilizing in teaching Akan as a foreign language aimed at reinforcing aspects of Akan covered in a given semester, specifically as students transition through different levels of language instruction and acquisition or go home on vacation. The significance of this project lies in the fact that it promotes language documenta- tion and material development in less-documented languages, and also, in the fact that it gives foreign language learners the opportunity to reinforce their target language exposure on vacation, or as they transition through the different levels of study, because each student gets a copy of the video to watch with their communities outside of the classroom. 1. Introduction The non-availability of videos for teaching Akan as a second language, coupled with students’ inability to retain target language materials, largely as a result of a long school vacation during which they have no access to their new language, are problems that led to this idea of requiring and organizing students each semester to cap- ture much of their language exposure on video. The video at the cen- ter of this article is worth sharing because, while there have been countless articles, dissertations (and even books) on the various me- thods of teaching a foreign language through video (Morris 2000, Steele and Johnson 2000, Rhodes and Pufahl 2004), there have been virtually none on students of less commonly taught, funded, and do- cumented languages working together each semester to document their target language exposure through video.

  • A Radical Feminist Analysis of Efo Kodjo Mawugbe's
    DISRUPTION OF GENDER NORMS TO ADVANCE CONTEMPORARY POLITICS: A RADICAL FEMINIST ANALYSIS OF EFO KODJO MAWUGBE’S IN THE CHEST OF A WOMAN A Paper Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Abigail Chrappah In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Major Department: English March 2021 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title DISRUPTION OF GENDER NORMS TO ADVANCE CONTEMPORARY POLITICS: A RADICAL FEMINIST ANALYSIS OF EFO KODJO MAWUGBE’S IN THE CHEST OF A WOMAN By Abigail Chrappah The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Anastassiya Andrianova Chair Kelly Cameron Rebecca Weaver-Hightower Approved: April 16, 2021 Stephenson Beck Date Department Chair ABSTRACT This paper deconstructs leadership and kingship politics in the Ghanaian West-African culture as it pertains to gender. It proves that what governs the concept of the throne is unequivocally masculine and simply a game. The thesis further argues the need to encourage subversively radical methods in dealing with entrenched sexism that permeate the royal system and the current political system. Through Efo Kodjo MaWugbe's play In the Chest of a Woman, the research establishes that the concept of power in the Ghanaian traditional system is rigid and, consequently, requires unorthodox deviance to challenge gender oppression. It concludes that for Women in Ghana to have any substantive political transformation, radicalism must be reconceptualized and integrated into West-African feminism for activism purposes and not avoided entirely.

Godwyll Assistant Professor of Educational Studies Renée A. Middleton Dean, College of Education 4 ABSTRACT ADUSAH-KARIKARI, AUGUSTINA, Ph.D., June 2008, Curriculum and Instruction, Cultural Studies Experiences of Women in Higher Education: A Study of Women Faculty and Administrators in Selected Public Universities in Ghana. (203 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Francis E. Godwyll Recent research on women’s experiences in higher education in Ghana is limited. These few studies have been insufficient, therefore, to serve as a basis for rectifying the ongoing gender imbalances in higher education. Higher education is the portal to enhancing the status of women, especially in developing societies such as Ghana. Increasing the numbers of women in higher education is not the only answer to obtaining gender equality. Pragmatic solutions are needed to improve gender equality. This study sought to examine the experiences of women in higher education in Ghana by considering the challenges that women face as faculty and administrators. It explored factors that contribute to the underrepresentation of women in senior positions within the universities and further investigated the policies that have been adopted to influence gender equity.

  • Practice and Conversion of Asante Market Women to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission in the Late 20Th Century
    PRACTICE AND CONVERSION OF ASANTE MARKET WOMEN TO THE AHMADIYYA MUSLIM MISSION IN THE LATE 20TH CENTURY By Mikelle Antoine A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY History 2010 ABSTRACT PRACTICE AND CONVERSION OF ASANTE MARKET WOMEN TO THE AHMADIYYA MUSLIM MISSION IN THE LATE 20TH CENTURY BY Mikelle Antoine Asante Islamic history does not end in the 19th century. Asante women in particular, have been converting to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission since the late 20th century. This period also correlates to a time when women were victimized in Ghana as prostitutes, witches and non patriotic. The ill treatment of women also intersected with the failing socio-economy. Food production was at its lowest and unemployment at its highest. Many people formed associations and consequently came to depend less on the state and more on social and religious networks. Converting to Islam was not without its problems. Asantes lived among Muslims for centuries, even before the rise of the kingdom. While the monarchy welcomed the written and linguistic knowledge of Muslims, they curtailed the spread of Islam. This worked to maintain Islam as distinct from Asante cultural traditions. Consequently, Islam was remained the religion of the foreigner or non-Asante. This configuration has not changed. Asante women who converted to Islam during this period were ostracized by their families. Some were denied inheritance, property, titles and stools. Many left the family home and never returned. British colonial rule gravely affected the relationship between Muslims and the Asante.
