Abstract: "This research provides an empirically-based, synchronic overview of an Amerindian village in northern Ontario, Canada, currently undergoing rapid social change. Using a discourse-centered approach to ethnography, this study illustrates ways in which a society is indexed through its discourse, and how changes in society affect language use. It is both an ethnography of speaking and an ethnography through speaking. The primary data collected for this research were naturally-occurring discourses, most of which were presented by members of the Native community for the Native community itself. |
