Book the “bedrock” for interpretation of Indigenous language
Nice review of The Language of This Land, Mi’kma’ki, by Trudy Sable and Bernie Francis (CBU Press, 2012), in the latest edition of Acadiensis (XLIII, no. 1 (Winter/Spring 2014): 185-193.
“A critical intervention … for it demonstrates the everpresent, ever-changing embeddedness of history, knowledge, and language in the landscape of Mi’kma’ki.”
“Provides the bedrock upon which readers can build new interpretations of the past that include rather than elide Indigenous knowledge systems.”
A journal of regional history devoted to the study of Atlantic Canada, Acadiensis is the essential source for reading and research on the region and one of Canada’s leading scholarly journals.
