Book info: Telling Our Selves: Ethnicity and Discourse in Southwestern Alaska (Oxford Studies in Anthropological Linguistics) (Hardcover, 232 pages) – Oxford University Press, 1996. Language: English.
In this book, Chase Hensel examines how Yup'ik Eskimos and non-natives construct and maintain gender and ethnic identities through strategic talk about hunting, fishing, and processing. Although ethnicity is overtly constructed in terms of either/or categories, the discourse of Bethel residents suggests that their actual concern is less with whether one is native or non-native, than with how native one is in a given context. In the interweaving of subsistence practices and subsistence discourse, ethnicity is constantly recreated.
