With topics ranging from work experiences and Oneida customs to pranks, humorous encounters, and ghost stories, these fifty-two unscripted narrations and conversations in Oneida represent a rare collection of first-hand Iroquoian reflections on aspects of daily life and culture not found in print elsewhere. Each text is presented in Oneida with both an interlinear, word-by-word translation and a more colloquial translation in English. The book also contains a grammatical sketch of the Oneida language by Karin Michelson, co-author of the Oneida-English/English-Oneida Dictionary, that describes how words are structured and combined into larger linguistic structures, thus allowing Glimpses to be used as a teaching text as well. The engrossing tales in Glimpses of Oneida Life will be a valuable resource for linguists and language learners, a useful source for those studying the history and culture of Iroquois people in the twentieth-century, and an entertaining read for anyone interested in everyday First Nations life in southern Ontario."-- $c Provided by publisher. 546 $a Includes text in English and Oneida. 650 0 $a Oneida language $v Texts. 650 0 $a Oneida language $v Translations into English. $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Oneida Indians $z Ontario, Southern $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Oneida Indians $z Ontario, Southern $v Humor. 650 0 $a Oneida language $x Grammar. 700 1 $a Michelson, Karin, $d 1953- $e editor. 700 1 $a Kennedy, Norma, $d 1934- $e author. $e author. 700 1 $a Doxtator, Mercy, $d 1936-2005, $e author. $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180131013921.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D5864AEC065411E8AD8CF06897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
