Download or read book The Oxford Guide to Australian Languages written by Claire Bowern and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-16 with total page 1179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Guide to Australian Languages is a wide-ranging reference work that explores the more than 550 traditional and new Indigenous languages of Australia. Australian languages have long played an important role in diachronic and synchronic linguistics and are a vital testing ground for linguistic theory. Until now, however, there has been no comprehensive and accessible guide to the their vast linguistic diversity. This volume fills that gap, bringing together leading scholars and junior researchers to provide an up-to-date guide to all aspects of the languages of Australia. The chapters in the book explore typology, documentation, and classification; linguistic structures from phonology to pragmatics and discourse; sociolinguistics and language variation; and language in the community. The final part offers grammatical sketches of a selection of languages, sub-groups, and families. At a time when the number of living Australian languages is significantly reduced even compared to twenty year ago, this volume establishes priorities for future linguistic research and contributes to the language expansion and revitalization efforts that are underway.

It formed part of his body of work presented in Bennell v. State of Western Australia securing native title for the Noongar nation in 2006.This ancient Noongar Dreamtime story is told in the words of Elder Cliff Humphries. It formed part of his body of work presented in the Bennell v State of Western Australia trial securing native title for the Noongar Nation in 2006. This story was taught to Elder Cliff by his grandfather in Kellerberrin . It tells of a young man who leaves his mother's home to go hunting. As night falls, he realises he is lost, and stumbles across mysterious bones in the bush. He is possessed by the spirit of these ancestral bones, and cannot find his way back to his family until he allows the bones to guide his legs home. Only then can he help his long-lost ancestor to rest in peace. The story is illustrated by Specialist Arts Programme and Follow the Dream students at the Bob Hawke College in Subiaco, Western Australia, under the direction of Elder Humphries' descendants, honouring their father's wishes that his traditional stories be shared with all West Australians, in the hope of supporting Noongar to rekindle their home fires with their mother tongue, their literature, and the traditions it has carried for millennia. A must-read for all those committed to reconciliation and the revival of Noongar language and culture.

Download or read book Koombana Days written by Annie Boyd and published by Fremantle Press. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The elegant, ultra-modern SS Koombana arrived in Western Australia in March 1909; after only three years of service in the North West of Australia, the ship and her entire complement disappeared in a late-summer cyclone off the Pilbara coast in 1912. All 156 lives were lost but the wreck was never found. This thoroughly researched and compelling book comes closer than ever before to solving the mystery of Australia’s most significant maritime disaster. Author Annie Boyd spent months camping along the coast, diving and investigating wrecks, researching the Koombana, and meeting with descendants of those lost in the tragedy. This insightful account is the culmination of her work, which includes a 20,000 page online resource with background material and primary sources.
