Contributions to the volume come from a variety of geographic regions and represent the Carib, Jê, Tupi, East Tukano, Nadahup, and Pano language families, as well as three linguistic isolates. The selected texts exemplify a variety of narrative styles recounting the origins of constellations, crops, and sacred cemeteries, and of travel to worlds beyond death. We hear tales of tricksters and of encounters between humans and other beings, learn of battles between enemies, and gain insight into history and the indigenous perspective of creation, cordiality and confrontation. The contributions to this volume are the result of research efforts conducted since 2000, and as such, exemplify rapidly expanding investment and interest in documenting native Amazonian voices. They moreover demonstrate the collaborative efforts of linguists, anthropologists, and indigenous leaders, storytellers, and researchers to study and preserve Amazonian languages and cultures. Each chapter offers complete interlinear analysis as well as ample commentary on both linguistic and cultural aspects, appealing to a wide audience, including linguists, historians, anthropologists, and other social scientists. This collection is the first of its type, constituting a significant contribution to focused study of Amazonian linguistic diversity and a relevant addition to our broader knowledge of Amerindian languages and cosmologies." 410 0$aStudies in diversity linguistics ;$v17. 606 $aLinguistics$xAmazonian languages 606 $aLinguistics$2bicssc 610 $aamazonian peoples 610 $ainterlinear texts 610 $anative amazonian languages 610 $aElektro-Slovenija 610 $aKuikuro 610 $aMorpheme 610 $aNateni language 610 $aPerfective aspect 610 $aTrumai language 615 0$aLinguistics$xAmazonian languages. 615 7$aLinguistics 700 $aFranchetto$b Bruna$4edt$01366246 702 $aFranchetto$b Bruna 702 $aStenzel$b Kristine 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910251394603321 996 $aOn this and other worlds$93388728 997 $aUNINA
