Nancy C. Dorian: Small-language fates and prospects. Lessons of persistence and change from endangered languages
Political oratory, power and authority in a medieval Mediterranean kingdom
Historical linguistic ethnography deals with verbal productions in the context of the conditions under which they came into being and the cultural meanings attributed to them at the time. The research procedure in ethnography is fieldwork, but historical linguistic ethnography is based on the examination of texts. Research, however, proceeds not from texts themselves, but from the questions addressed to texts. The linguistic/interactional materia…
L'Alguer (Alghero), a Catalan linguistic enclave in Sardinia
This article presents a linguistic and sociolinguistic description of l'Alguer (Alghero), a Catalan linguistic enclave in Sardinia (Italy). Within the framework of linguistic-enclave research, the linguistic, geographic, historical, and political specifics of Alghero are presented, along with local dynamics involving multilingualism, heteroglossia, and linguistic hybridization. The relationship between codes (mainly Catalan, Sardinian, and Italia…
Responsibility in discourse: Evidence, report and entitlement to speak in the Book of deeds of King James
An ethnographic approach to language aims at explaining the organization of a verbal culture, understood as the result of speakers' practices and agency. The instrument of this research is fieldwork. For the verbal cultures of bygone societies, only examination of written records helps us to guess how speaking worked at the time. This general issue is addressed by scrutinizing a medieval Catalan chronicle. Ethnographic and pragmatic concepts are …
Code-switching and dialogism: Verbal practices among Catalan Jews in the Middle Ages
From a strict linguistic viewpoint, code-switching intertwines with a diverse range of language contact phenomena, from strict interference to several kinds of language mixture. Code-switching has also been addressed as an interactional phenomenon in everyday talk, an approach that implies a synchronic perspective. In this article, however, data are drawn from the records of communicative practices left behind by Catalan Jewish communities of the…
Cultural identity and heteroglossia
The assumption that language and cultural identity can be identify has been questioned with empirical data. However, an exclusive and excessive static and taxonomic concept of socio-cultural identity, a concept that would be vaguely correlated to linguistic variation, understood—at the same time—as a simple juxtaposition of verbal codes still persists. If we conceive socio-cultural identity not only as a historically determinated result, but at t…
