Dear All,<br><br>
I have been following the discussion on the list with great
interest. I just wanted to recommend a few essential readings on
Quechua. While I agree that it is important to read and take into
account the findings of "new blood" in the field, it is equally
important to give weight to those who have studied and continue to study
the situation of Quechua, and so can be expected to have a very good feel
for how things have progressed over time throughout the region. The
following list includes both "canonical" investigators and
"newer blood" with a long-term interest/investment in the
Andes.<br><br>
Nancy H. Hornberger, of course, is always essential reading. She
has spent years in the Andes, and publishes extensively on Quechua.
She has many more articles than this, but in particular, check
out:<br><br>
Bilingual Education and Language Maintenance: A Southern Peruvian Quechua
Case. 1988. Berlin: Mouton.<br><br>
Language ideology in Quechua communities of Puno, Peru. 1988.

in Peru and Bolivia (with Enrique Lopez). 1998. In J. Cenoz

~~~~~~~~~~<br>
Rodolfo Cerron-Palomino is another essential read. He has spent his
entire career studying indigenous languages in the Andes, and has an
incredibly fine understanding of languages in contact and the varying
regional situations of Quechua. Most of his work is in
Spanish:<br><br>

Luis Enrique López is another important figure who also publishes in
Spanish and English:<br><br>

I also have several publications on Quechua in Peru: <br><br>

Peruvian Quechua language. <u>Working Papers in Educational
Linguistics</u> 12(2), 1-28.<br><br>

Arnold, again among many others.<br><br>

Some of these authors have done research throughout the Andes, not just
in one or another country. They include Adelaar, Cerron-Palomino,
Hornberger, Hornberger & Coronel-Molina, Howard, Lopez, Torero and
von Gleich.<br><br>
My apologies for not providing bibliography for all of these authors, but
as you can see, it would be a very long list, and I didn't want to burden
everyone with such a long email. If anyone is interested in
specific references, they can write me off-list. <br><br>
On that note, I will let you all go. Happy reading!<br><br>
Serafin<br><br>
