Abstract:
This book is intended for researchers in the field of narrative from
post-graduate level onwards. It analyzes the audio-recordings of the
narratives of former slaves from the American South which are now publically
available on the Library of Congress website: Voices from the days of slavery.
More specifically, this book analyses the identity work of these former slaves
and considers how these identities are related to master narratives. The
novelty of this book is that through using such a temporally diverse and
relatively large corpus, we show how master narratives change according to
both the zeitgeist of the here-and-now of the interview world and the
historical period that is related in the there-and-then of the story world.
Moreover, focusing on the active achievement of master narratives as
socially-situated co-constructed discursive accomplishments we analyze how
different, inherently unstable and even contradictory versions of master
narratives are enacted.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
