  • West Greenlandic Eskimo & Haida 1. Introduction in This Chapter, We
    Chapter 4 The Constitution of FOCUS: West Greenlandic Eskimo & Haida 1. Introduction In this chapter, we introduce West Greenlandic Eskimo and Haida and outline portions of two languages which are associated with the expression of FOCUS. One language will exploit sentence initial position and one, sentence final position. They will also differ in how/whether they wed other semantics with FOCUS, and they will differ in how they associate other semantics with FOCUS. These interplays afford us the opportunity to enrich our conceptuali- zation of FOCUS. 2. West Greenlandic Eskimo West Greenlandic Eskimo (WGE) is a language that places S, O, and V in that order in the most neutral expressions:1 SOXV is clearly the neutral order (Sadock 1984.196) 1 The following is from the webpage of the Alaska Native Language Center (http://www.uaf.edu/anlc/): Although the name “Eskimo” is commonly used in Alaska to refer to all Inuit and Yupik people of the world, this name is considered derogatory in many other places because it was given by non-Inuit people and was said to mean “eater of raw meat.” Linguists now believe that “Eskimo” is derived from an Ojibwa word meaning “to net snowshoes.” However, the people of Canada and Greenland prefer other names. “Inuit,” meaning “people,” is used in most of Canada, and the language is called “Inuktitut” in eastern Canada although other local designations are used also. The Inuit people of Greenland refer to themselves as “Greenlanders” or “Kalaallit” in their language, which they call “Greenlandic” or “Kalaallisut.” Most Alaskans continue to accept the name “Eskimo,” particularly because “Inuit” refers only to the Inupiat of northern Alaska, the Inuit of Canada, and the Kalaallit of Greenland, and is not a word in the Yupik languages of Alaska and Siberia.

The exhibition will be on view from Aug. 16 to Dec. 31, 2016. Artists in the exhibition are Lynsey Addario, Jananne Al-Ani, Jennifer Karady, Gloriann Liu, Rania Matar, Eman Mohammed, Farah Nosh, Suzanne Opton, Michal Rovner, Stephen Dupont, Ben Lowy, and Simon Norfolk. Supported by prestigious grants from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, the exhibition includes ninety photographs, two videos and an educational touch table, each depicting the conditions, and voices, of people and environments caught in war’s wake, from Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Palestine, Israel and America. Together the images in Aftermath urge a reflection on loss, offer a comparison of the past in relation to the present, and encourage visitors to ask what the future may hold. “Aftermath shows life and loss of many kinds, its lingering physical and emotional effects, and hope-filled survival tactics. In these, we are all susceptible and connected,” says Carol McCusker, Harn Curator of Photography.

  • Keeping Haida Alive Through Film and Drama
    Language Documentation & Conservation Special Publication No. 20 Collaborative Approaches to the Challenge of Language Documentation and Conservation: Selected papers from the 2018 Symposium on American Indian Languages (SAIL) ed. by Wilson de Lima Silva and Katherine Riestenberg, p.107-122 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ 8 http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24935 Keeping Haida alive through film and drama Frederick White Slippery Rock University The Haida language, of the northwest coast of Canada and Southern Alaska, has been endangered for most of the 20th century. Historically, orthography has been a difficult issue for anyone studying the language, since no standardized orthography existed. In spite of the orthographical issues, current efforts in Canada at revitalizing Haida lan- guage and culture have culminated in the theatrical production of Sinxii’gangu, a tradi- tional Haida story dramatized and performed completely in Haida. The most recent effort is Edge of the Knife, a film about a Haida man transforming into a gaagiid (wild man) as a result of losing a child. The story line addresses his restoration back into the community, and as a result, affords not just a resource for two Haida dialects, but also for history and culture. With regards to language, actors participated in two weeks of immersion to prepare and struggled through issues with Haida pronunciation during filming. Using the Haida language exclusively, not just in oral narratives (though there are some in the drama and the film) but in actual dialogue, provides learners with great context for developing strategies for pronunciation and conversation rather than only learning and hearing lexical items and short phrases.

  • Final Front Matter
    Defragmenting Identity in the Life Narratives of Iraqi North American Women by Lamees Al Ethari A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2014 © Lamees Al Ethari 2014 Author's Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation examines contemporary Iraqi North American women’s life narratives within the frame of postcolonial autobiography theory. Through narrating their experiences of oppression, war, and displacement these women reveal the fragmentation of identity that occurs under such unsettling situations. However, I argue that in the course of narrating their stories and in spite of the fragmentation they suffer, these women are able to establish selves that distinguish and recover from fragmentation and loss through a process I term defragmentation. They are able to defragment their identities by reconstructing unique selves through the act of life narration, through relational remembering, and finally by resisting patriarchal and Western influences on how they perceive themselves and their experiences. Thus they are able to defragment their sense of disjointedness and reaffirm their sense of Iraqiness, even in the diaspora. This study explores the major causes of fragmentation in the work, which are divided into trauma and displacement. Unlike the studies and statistics that political approaches and media coverage have provided, these works shed light on the disruptions caused by war, oppression, separation from loved ones, and exile in the daily lives of these narrators or the lives of their friends and relatives.
