Описание: La finalidad principal de este trabajo consiste en la descripcion del lenguaje empleado en los ritos adivinatorios difundidos en las zonas de habla quechua y aimara de la cordillera centro-andina. En particular, se analiza el lenguaje utilizado durante los ritos oraculares de interpretacion de hojas de coca. Los resultados de las investigaciones de campo – desarrolladas en Peru y en Bolivia – han identificado, en primer lugar, algunas formulas y estructuras linguisticas establecidas como elementos nucleares del evento ritual. En segundo lugar, algunas formas esquematicas de dialogar relativamente homogeneas. El trabajo representa una investigacion pionera, ofreciendo una imagen coherente de un fenomeno comunicativo unitario, documentado, sin embargo, de manera fragmentaria en la literatura etnografica contemporanea.

Описание: In this remarkable and deeply felt book, Virginia Kerns uncovers the singular and forgotten life of a young Indian woman who was captured in 1847 in what was then Mexican territory. Sold to a settler, a son-in-law of Brigham Young, the woman spent the next thirty years as a servant to Young's family. Sally, as they called her, lived in the shadows, largely unseen. She was later remembered as a 'wild' woman made 'tame' who happily shed her past to enter a new and better life in civilization. 

Drawing from a broad range of primary sources, Kerns retrieves Sally from obscurity and reconstructs her complex life before, during, and after captivity. This true story from the American past resonates deeply in the current moment, attentive as it is to killing epidemics and racial injustices. In telling Sally's story, Kerns presents a new narrative of the American West.
