Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Using the intriguing stories and words of a Quechuaspeaking woman named Luisa Cadena from the Pastaza Province of Ecuador, Janis B. Nuckolls reveals a complex language system in which ideophony, dialogue, and perspective are all at the core of cultural and grammatical communications among Amazonian Quechua speakers.This book is a fascinating look at ideophoneswords that communicate succinctly through imitative sound qualities. They are at the core of Quechua speakers discourseboth linguistic and culturalbecause they allow agency and reaction to substances and entities as well as beings. Nuckolls shows that Luisa Cadenas utterances give every individual, major or minor, a voice in her narrative. Sometimes as subtle as a barely felt movement or unintelligible sound, the language supports an amazingly wide variety of voices.Cadenas narratives and commentaries on everyday events reveal that sound imitation through ideophones, representations of dialogues between humans and nonhumans, and grammatical distinctions between a speaking self and an other are all part of a language system that allows for the possibility of shared affects, intentions, moral values, and meaningful, communicative interactions between humans and nonhumans.
