Dear Saul et al:

I wish I could be there at SCLC as such a presentation would certainly
interest me!

Hi David,
Do you think people would be interested in a presentation on the
history of
Chiwere documentation? I would hope to raise issues relevant to Siouan
linguistics, but it would not necessarily develop a linguistic topic in
the
sense of advancing our understanding of Chiwere structural features.
At
this point, I'm thinking about something on the orthography and
distribution of missionary texts in Chiwere from the 1830s-1850s and
its
relation to the history of frontier printing. I may also compare the
early
missionary materials to those of later BAE and Boasian ethnologists
and
ethnographers like Dorsey, Marsh, and Whitman. If you do think it would
be
of interest, you can go ahead and put me on the list. But please don't
be
afraid to say something if you don't think it would fit---I won't be
offended.
Best,
Saul
