Creole onomastics: Names and naming in and for creole languages
This article examines naming practices in creole languages and in scholarly discourse, addressing names in and for creole languages. It asks what constitutes a ‘creole name’, how the input languages affect and shape creole onomastics, and when creole serves as a glossonym and when as a class noun for a group of languages. Drawing on examples from diverse creoles, the overview shows that while many names originate from superstrate sources, they of…
Contingent Hope: Everyday Crisis and Future Imaginaries among Venezuelan Migrants in Colombia
In this article, we analyse the experiences of Venezuelan migrants in Colombia by drawing on fieldwork conducted in the cities of Bucaramanga and Medellín between May 2021 and May 2022. We argue that though the situation facing Venezuelan migrants in Colombia is characterised fundamentally by hardship, at the level of everyday experience it is also one shaped by hope. Engaging with recent debates concerning aspiration and care in situations of pr…
Structures adhortatives dans les langues créoles à base française entre grammaire et pragmatique: Quel rôle pour anou
Cet article offre une première interprétation des structures adhortatives (impératifs de première personne du pluriel) dans les langues créoles à base française. Il adopte une perspective comparative à partir des descriptions disponibles pour les différentes langues créoles tout en se situant aux intersections entre grammaire et pragmatique. L’article introduira d’abord les concepts théoriques nécessaires pour l’analyse des structures adhortative…
Ducœurjoly et le créole haïtien dans le Manuel des habitans de Saint-Domingue: Un cas de « Language Making » colonial
Cette note de recherche présente une analyse d’un texte clé de l’histoire de la créolistique, le Manuel des habitans de Saint-Domingue, publié en 1802 par S. J. Ducœurjoly. En partant du concept de Language Making, l’article se propose de retracer la façon dont Ducœurjoly construit une conception du créole haïtien sur la base de normes structurelles et fonctionnelles implicites : Il présente la langue dans son « essence » telle qu’il la conçoit, …
"What is "Language Making
This article introduces a new concept called "Language Making". The term covers all kinds of processes in which speakers or non-speakers collectively conceptualize linguistic entities. Such processes are usually perpetual, they operate based on language ideologies and attitudes, and they bring about functional and structural norms which determine the boundaries of linguistic entities such as languages, dialects or varieties. The article discusses…
Language Making of Creoles in multilingual postcolonial societies
This article investigates Language Making processes in multilingual postcolonial societies where Creole languages are spoken. It raises the question whether or not Language Making in these settings differs from other contexts given the historical preconditions and social, economic, or political inequalities which persist after the colonial period. The paper discusses the potentials of Language Making to support or impede efforts of decolonization…
Effect of same-discipline compared to different-discipline collaboration on teacher trainees’ attitudes towards inclusive education and their collaboration skills
A History of Creole Studies
As an institutionalized subfield of academic research, Creole studies (or Creolistics) emerged in the second half of the 20th century on the basis of pioneering works in the last decades of the 19th century and first half of the 20th century. Yet its research traditions—just like the Creole languages themselves—are much older and are deeply intertwined with the history of European colonialism, slavery, and Christian missionary activities all arou…
Combien de néerlandais ? Histoire linguistique et histoire de la linguistique dans les Îles Vierges danoises
La langue créole à base néerlandaise des Îles Vierges danoises a été documentée pendant des siècles non par des Néerlandais, mais par des missionnaires allemands et des fonctionnaires coloniaux danois. Cet article a pour objectif de retracer la place du néerlandais dans cet univers colonial complexe. Nous examinerons des sources historiques des xviiie et xixe siècles pour déterminer le rôle sociolinguistique de la langue néerlandaise et du créole…
Rassedenken in der Sprach- und Textreflexion: Kommentierte Grundlagentexte des langen 19. Jahrhunderts
Die Philologie hat im 19. Jahrhundert wesentlich zum europäischen Rassismus beigetragen, gegen diesen aber auch zentrale anthropologische Wissensbestände behauptet. Der Band zeigt diesen Prozess anhand von Grundlagentexten und erläuternden Kommentaren. Früher als biologische Rassenlehren lieferte philologisches Wissen grundlegende »Erkenntnisse« über Ursprünge, Wesen und Potenziale menschlicher Kollektive. Die Entdeckungen der Sprach- und Textref…
Changing teachers' attitudes towards linguistic diversity: Effects of an anti‐bias programme
We discuss an intervention programme for kindergarten and school teachers' continuing education in Germany that targets biases against language outside a perceived monolingual ‘standard’ and its speakers. The programme combines anti‐bias methods relating to linguistic diversity with objectives of raising critical language awareness. Evaluation through teachers' workshops in Berlin and Brandenburg points to positive and enduring attitudinal change…
Une touche de noir, une touche de blanc. Volcy Focard explique la créolisation à La Réunion
Si la recherche sur les langues créoles au XIXe siècle s’inscrit clairement dans le discours racialiste de la philologie contemporaine, le Réunionnais Volcy Focard prend une position exceptionnelle : au lieu des présumées différences raciales, son explication de la créolisation et des structures grammaticales du créole réunionnais sont d’ordre sociohistorique plutôt que biologiste. Son article « Les origines du patois de l’île Bourbon » ainsi que…
Linguistique coloniale au XIXe siècle: Le discours racialiste dans la recherche française sur les langues créoles
Toward the end of the nineteenth century, a strong racist discourse was displayed in texts about Creole languages. Authors such as Mauritius-born Charles Baissac established explanations about the emergence of Creole languages and their specific structure, arguing that these particularities can only be seen as a result of contact between two races of different physical, mental, and social predispositions. As shown in Edward Said's “Orientalism,” …
