Synopsis
The Dialogic Nation of Cape Verde: Slavery, Language, and Ideology is an ethnographic study of language use and ideology in Cape Verde, from its early settlement as a center for slave trade, to the postcolonial present. The study is methodologically rich and innovative in that it weaves together historical, linguistic, and ethnographic data from different eras with sketches of contemporary life-a homicide trial, a scholarly meeting, a competition for a new national flag, a heterodox Catholic mass, an analysis of love letters, a priest's sermon, and a death in the neighborhood. In all these different contexts, Márcia Rego focuses on the role of Kriolu (the Cape Verdean Creole) and its relation to Portuguese-that is, on the way people live through speaking. The Dialogic Nation of Cape Verde shows how, through the dialogic give-and-take of the two languages, Cape Verdeans wrestle with deep-seated colonial hierarchies, invent and rehearse new traditions, and articulate their identity as a sovereign, creole nation., The Dialogic Nation of Cape Verde: Slavery, Language, and Ideology is an ethnographic study of language use and ideology in Cape Verde, from its early settlement as a center for slave trade, to the postcolonial present.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (474,144)
- 2***2 (79)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAs soon as I placed this order, I realised the mistake I made and tried to cancel it. The seller refused to cancel. When I tried, I explained I suspected this DVD of Due South wasn't complete and was missing episodes. There are two different versions of season 3, either with around 10 episodes or the complete final season with 26 episodes. I messaged the seller asking how many episodes this "season 3" had and received an unhelpful answer. The DVD's I received only have 10 episodes.
