Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines an indigenous language of the Arctic spoken by the Inuit, the Eskimo language, by way of a detailed phonetic study based on observations made during the author's year-long stay in Danish North Greenland. The author supplements his own observations with historical data about the East Eskimo, a comparative study of the Eskimo dialects, and the inclusion of folk tales, songs, and music. The themes present in this volume touch on the historical presence of the Norsemen in Greenland, and the impact they had on the indigenous population. Additionally, the book explores the various sounds used in the Eskimo language, and the different ways in which the language is spoken across different regions of Greenland. Thanks to the insights provided by the author, this book is a valuable resource for those interested in Eskimo linguistics, Arctic exploration, and the history of Greenland.
