Abstract

Aboriginal approaches to the naming of places across Australia differ radically from the official introduced Anglo-Australian system. However, many of these earlier names have been incorporated into contemporary nomenclature, with considerable reinterpretations of their function and form. Recently, state jurisdictions have encouraged the adoption of a greater number of Indigenous names, sometimes alongside the accepted Anglo-Australian terms, around Sydney Harbour, for example. In some cases, the use of an introduced name, such as Gove, has been contested by local Indigenous people. The 19 studies brought together in this book present an overview of current issues involving Indigenous placenames across the whole of Australia, drawing on the disciplines of geography, linguistics, history, and anthropology. They include meticulous studies of historical records, and perspectives stemming from contemporary Indigenous communities. The book includes a wealth of documentary information on some 400 specific placenames, including those of Sydney Harbour, the Blue Mountains, Canberra, western Victoria, the Lake Eyre district, the Victoria River District, and southwestern Cape York Peninsula.

19. Associated motion

Author

Guillaume, Antoine, Koch, Harold, and Australian National University (ANU)

Subjects
MESH: direction, MESH: location, MESH: associated motion, MESH: implicational hierarchies, MESH: typology, MESH: aspect, MESH: complexity, [SHS.LANGUE]Humanities and Social Sciences/Linguistics
Abstract

International audience; This volume is the first book-length presentation of the grammatical category of Associated Motion. It provides a framework for understanding a grammatical phenomenon which, though present in many languages, has gone unrecognized until recently. Previously known primarily from languages of Australia and South America, grammatical AM marking has now been identified in languages from most parts of the world (except Europe) and is becoming an important topic in linguistic typology. The chapters provide a thorough introduction to the subject, discussion of the relation between AM and related grammatical concepts, detailed descriptions of AM in a wide range of the world’s languages, and surveys of AM in particular language families and areas.

Abstract

International audience; This volume is the first book-length presentation of the relatively newly established grammatical category of Associated Motion. It provides a framework for understanding a grammatical phenomenon which, though present in many languages, has gone unrecognised until recently. Previously known mainly from languages of Australia and South America, grammatical AM marking has now been identified in languages from most parts of the world (except Europe) and is becoming an important topic of linguistic typology. The 22 chapters provide a thorough introduction to the subject, discussion of the relation between AM and related grammatical concepts, detailed descriptions of AM in a wide range of the world’s languages, and surveys of AM in particular language families and areas. All of the studies are richly illustrated by means of approximately 2000) example sentences.

25. A visual stimulus for eliciting associated motion

Author

Guillaume, Antoine, Koch, Harold, Guillaume, A ( Antoine ), Koch, H ( Harold ), Vuillermet, Marine; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6443-8461, Guillaume, Antoine, Koch, Harold, Guillaume, A ( Antoine ), Koch, H ( Harold ), and Vuillermet, Marine; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6443-8461

Abstract

Pictures and video stimuli help investigate specific semantic domains and/or grammatical categories. Such stimuli not only help to collect more occurrences of a given (possibly rare) morpheme in a semi-spontaneous setting, but also allow the study of variation across speakers and diversity across languages. The paper describes a stimulus in the form of a storybook, A Hunting Story, specifically conceived to elicit associated motion (AM) morphemes in Ese Ejja, an Amazonian language with a complex system of 14 such morphemes. The pictures of the storybook therefore represent an Amazonian setting, and the scenario incorporates the main parameters established in the AM literature (such as path/directionality, temporal relation, moving argument), as well as less frequent ones (such as aspectual realization). The paper describes the data collected from 14 speakers of Ese Ejja as well as data collected with the same stimulus in other languages, including languages with no morphological AM system.

45. Introduction to Language, Land & Song: Studies in Honour of Luise Hercus

Author

Peter K Austin, Harold Koch, Jane Simpson, Koch, Harold, Austin, Peter K., Simpson, Jane, Peter K Austin, Harold Koch, Jane Simpson, Koch, Harold, Austin, Peter K., and Simpson, Jane

Abstract

Language, land and song are closely entwined for most pre-industrial societies, whether the fishing and farming economies of Homeric Greece, or the raiding, mercenary and farming economies of the Norse, or the huntergatherer economies of Australia. Documenting a language is now seen as incomplete unless documenting place, story and song forms part of it. This book presents language documentation in its broadest sense in the Australian context, also giving a view of the documentation of Australian Aboriginal languages over time.1 In doing so, we celebrate the achievements of a pioneer in this field, Luise Hercus, who has documented languages, land, song and story in Australia over more than fifty years.
