Ann McElroy. Nunavut Generations: Change and Continuity in Canadian Inuit Communities
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Ann McElroy. Generations: Change and Continuity in Canadian Communities (Waveland Press, 2008. ISBN: -10: 1577664892) At the beginning of the first chapter of this book, Ann McElroy includes a quote from leader Jose Kusugak, who said, Nunavut offers a lesson to the broader global community. And that lesson is about the resilience of the human spirit. Resilience in the face of sociocultural, economic and other issues is indeed a core part of the experience, and McElroy's book discusses such an idea through a cultural history of those who call, or have called, home Canada's most recent territory. Using a mixture of oral history, geography and folklore to describe how generations change over time, McElroy's book is broad in its scope, diverse in its targeted audience and accessible to people beyond the academy. People interested in cultural geography, anthropology, folklore, religious studies and Canadian history would reap the most benefit from the text, and the bibliographies following each chapter are extensive and well organized, offering encouragement to look further into the material at hand. Consisting of eight chapters and a field note-based epilogue, the history of the in starts by describing Nunavut's rise to territorial status. The first chapter, Inuit and Astronauts, successfully describes how culture is both rooted in traditional lifeways and embraces both modern technology and lifestyles. McElroy describes a Day celebration, which includes country music and visits from astronauts, as a way to frame the premise of her ethnography. She makes it clear that personal experience is important and is widely incorporated in the book to describe how deal with sociocultural and political issues m a way that blends together natural landscape and cultures of multiple generations. The notion of the authenticity of culture also plays an important role in the text, especially in recognizing the fact that life has been heavily romanticized by outsiders. In the second chapter, Early Encounters, European romanticism is brought to the reader's attention in a historical context. McElroy does an excellent job of demonstrating that this romanticism is false; the lifeways were just as rooted in tradition and variation as any other culture of their era, and embracing new things was not always something detrimental. Such embracing carries on to the third chapter, Dance from the Heart, which discusses Qallunaat (European) influences on life with an emphasis on religion, health and authority. Oral history describes how such interactions are met with both fondness and ambivalence, and McElroy does not shy away from including the fact that there were issues with many outside influences. Up to this point in the text, there is little about McElroy's personal experience in the field, but this changes with the fourth chapter, Living with the People. Breaking down her fieldwork experience chronologically, we learn of McElroy's quest to understand life from their perspective; the chapter is unromantic in describing the fact that conditions were not always the best. An emphasis on relationships with the locals is also brought to the reader's attention; she saw the families she interacted with as mentors and peers, bringing a personal touch to the ethnography. …

Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
