这张嘴是我的

English | September 17th, 2024 | ISBN: 191386796X | 150 pages | True EPUB | 1.10 MB

A warm, witty, passionate cry for living, vital, indigenous languages and the people who speak them.

Despite the more than 200 Indigenous languages spoken in Mexico, including 63 that are officially recognized and celebrated by the Mexican government, linguistic diversity is and has been under attack in a larger culture that says bilingual is good when it means Spanish and English, but bad when it means Nahuatl and Spanish. Yásnaya Aguilar, a linguist and native Mixe speaker, asks what is lost, for everyone, when the contradictions inherent in Mexico's relationship with its many Indigenous languages mean official protection and actual contempt at worst, and ignorance at best. What does it mean to have a prize for Indigenous literature when different Indigenous languages are as far from each other as they are from Japanese? What impact does considering Tzotzil "cultural heritage" have on our idea of it, when it is still being used, and refreshed, and changed (like every other language) today? How does the idea of Indigeneity stand up, when you consider Indigenous peoples outside of the frame of colonialism?Personal, anecdotal, and full of vivid examples, Aguilar does more than advocate for the importance of resistance by native peoples: she offers everyone the opportunity to value and enjoy a world in which culture, language, and community is delighted in, not flattened. "We have sacrificed Mexico in favor of creating the idea of Mexico" she says. This Mouth Is Mine is an invitation to take it back.

英语|2024年9月17日|ISBN:191386796X|150页|True EPUB | 1.10 MB对活着的、重要的土著语言和说这些语言的人的温暖、诙谐、激情的呼喊。 尽管墨西哥有200多种土著语言，其中包括墨西哥政府正式承认和庆祝的63种，但语言多样性在一种更大的文化中受到了攻击，这种文化认为双语在西班牙语和英语方面是好的，但在纳瓦特尔语和西班牙语方面是坏的。语言学家和母语为Mixe语的Yásnaya Aguilar问，当墨西哥与其许多土著语言的关系中固有的矛盾意味着最坏的情况下是官方保护和实际蔑视，最好的情况是无知时，每个人都失去了什么。当不同的土著语言彼此相距甚远，就像它们与日语相距甚远时，获得土著文学奖意味着什么？当Tzotzil“文化遗产”今天仍在使用、更新和改变（像其他语言一样）时，考虑它对我们的观念有什么影响？当你在殖民主义框架之外考虑土著人民时，土著性的概念是如何站起来的？个人、轶事和充满生动例子的Aguilar不仅倡导土著人民抵抗的重要性：她为每个人提供了机会，让他们珍视和享受一个文化、语言和社区都感到高兴而不是被夷为平地的世界。她说：“我们为了创造墨西哥的想法而牺牲了墨西哥。”。《这张嘴是我的》是一个收回它的邀请。
