O tempo Kamayurá
Get PDFDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Antropologia Social, Florianópolis, 2010Este estudo apresenta o tempo dos índios kamayurá, moradores da Terra Indígena do Xingu, MT. Tempo, aqui, é entendido como uma categoria elementar do conhecimento, nos termos de Emile Durkheim. A partir de uma descrição do sistema de mensuração de tempo kamayurá a análise foca tempo como uma categoria que transpassa cotidiano e ritual, uma categoria que torna-se sentida e pensada apenas através dessa transposição

A viagem de urutau: Como é a vagina por dentro?
Get PDFA kuikuro akinha (narrative) makes the author think and write again about sexes and sexualities of women (and men) in a corner of the Amerindian world and in our kagaiha (non-indigenous) world. The character of the akinha is Ájahi, the Urutau bird-people, who undertakes a journey to find out what the vagina would be like from the inside. It is a fun and serious narrative, at the same time, that leads to complementarities, developments and contrasts. Egü (vulva or vagina) is another character, vagina-person, who crosses Amerindian mythological thought in fragments and transformations. Vulva "good to be thought of".Una akinha (narrativa) kuikuro hace que la autora vuelva a pensar y a escribir sobre sexos y sexualidades de mujeres (y hombres) en un rincón del mundo amerindio y en nuestro mundo kagaiha (no indígena).

Es una narrativa divertida y seria, al mismo tiempo, que conduce a complementariedades, desarrollos y contrastes.

Voices from Amazonia
Get PDFThis edited volume offers a collection of twelve interlinear texts reflecting
the vast linguistic diversity of Amazonia as well as the rich verbal arts and
oral literature traditions of Amazonian peoples. Contributions to the volume
come from a variety of geographic regions and represent the Carib, Jê, Tupi,
East Tukano, Nadahup, and Pano language families, as well as three linguistic
isolates. The selected texts exemplify a variety of narrative styles
recounting the origins of constellations, crops, and sacred cemeteries, and of
travel to worlds beyond death. We hear tales of tricksters and of encounters
between humans and other beings, learn of battles between enemies, and gain
insight into history and the indigenous perspective of creation, cordiality
and confrontation. The contributions to this volume are the result of research
efforts conducted since 2000, and as such, exemplify rapidly expanding
investment and interest in documenting native Amazonian voices. They moreover
demonstrate the collaborative efforts of linguists, anthropologists, and
indigenous leaders, storytellers, and researchers to study and preserve
Amazonian languages and cultures. Each chapter offers complete interlinear
analysis as well as ample commentary on both linguistic and cultural aspects,
appealing to a wide audience, including linguists, historians,
anthropologists, and other social scientists. This collection is the first of
its type, constituting a significant contribution to focused study of
Amazonian linguistic diversity and a relevant addition to our broader
knowledge of Amerindian languages and cosmologies

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
