My Little Speech Book

By: Elizabeth Schwimer Ed,Elizabeth Schwimer Morrissey, M.A., M. ED. and James E. Morrissey, MSW, Photographer

Speech is an essential means of communication through which we make ourselves understood. It is the key that opens the door to friendships, education, and feelings of security. My little Speech Book is for all persons who would like to improve their speech. It is specifically for those who are deaf or hard of hearing but it can be beneficial for those learning English as a second language, or those with delayed speech or who have a speech impediment which they are learning to correct. This method can also be used with hearing babies to give them a push to begin speaking.

Voices of the Poor in Africa

Moral Economy and the Popular Imagination

By: Elizabeth Allo Isichei

An ambitious new approach to African studies, utilizing indigenous sources to bring back the voices of the native Africans in their own words rather than that of colonizers and foreigners. Elizabeth Isichei explores the Atlantic slave trade, as reflected in the poetics of rumour and the poetics of memory -- an approach different from the quantitative and demographic studies which have transformed the subject over the past twenty years. To this and to her study of popular consciousness in the colony and postcolony, she brings together a wide range of disciplines -- ethnography, art and art history, and contemporary literary theory among them -- to look at the intellectual history of Africa, from African rather than European premises. The result is a history of popular consciousness which shows the experiences of ordinary people, often in protest to an ongoing experience of exploitation. Elizabeth Isichei is Professor of Religious Studies, Otago University, Dunedin, New Zealand and author of over a dozen books on African history and religion. She holds an Oxford doctorate, and aD.Litt from the University of Canterbury, and is a fellow of the Royal Society [N.Z.]

Linguistic Landscaping and the Pacific Region

Colonization, Indigenous Identities, and Critical Discourse Theory

By: Diane Elizabeth Johnson

In Linguistic Landscaping and the Pacific Region: Colonization, Indigenous Identities, and Critical Discourse Theory, Diane Elizabeth Johnson provides four case studies, each exploring the use of language in public spaces in an area of the Pacific in which colonization has played a major role: The Kingdom of Hawai‘i/Hawai‘i, Aotearoa/New Zealand, Kanaky/New Caledonia, and Tahiti. Each of these studies is informed by critical discourse theory, highlighting the ways in which hegemonic structures may be established, reinforced, and— particularly in times of crisis—contested and overturned. The book introduces the case studies in the context of a parallel introduction to the Pacific region, critical discourse theory, and research on linguistic landscapes. The critical discussion is accessible to students and others who are approaching these contexts and theories for the first time, while also locating the author’s work in relation to existing scholarship. Johnson urges readers to listen carefully to the voices of indigenous peoples at a time when the danger of Western certainties has been fully exposed.
