Lexique Analytique De L'anatomie Humaine - Analytical Lexicon of Human Anatomy Inuktitut - Francais - English (French, Paperback)

Les lexiques et dictionnaires sont des ouvrages que l'on consulte a la fois par interet et par plaisir. Le present lexique anatomique trilingue inuktitut/francais/anglais ne fait pas exception a la regle. Il comble tout d'abord un manque existant dans le champ de l'anatomie inuit en rassemblant un corpus d'environ 570 termes provenant de l'Arctique oriental canadien (Nunavik et Nunavut oriental). Il permet ensuite d'aborder ce domaine lexical dans une perspective ethnolinguistique reliant les faits de langue aux choix culturels. Ce travail met ainsi en avant le caractere hautement motive de la langue inuit. Ouvrage thematique a vocation pratique, illustre de planches anatomiques, il met en evidence divers modes de designation des organes et zones du corps et contribue de la sorte a une meilleure connaissance de certaines mecanismes de conceptualisation chez les Inuit. Dictionaries are reference works: we consult them both for interest and for pleasure. This trilungual Inuktitut/French/English anatomical dictionary is no exception to this rule. It fills first and foremost a gap that exists in the field of Inuit anatomy, by bringing together a set of some 570 terms from the Canadian Eastern Arctic (Nunavik and Eastern Nunavut). It then provides an ethnolinguistic approach to this area of lexicography that links the facts of language to cultural choices. This work accordingly illustrates the highly motivated character of the Inuit language. This lexicon is dedicated to a specific theme, with practical intent and is illustrated with anatomical plates. It shows, as far as possible, various ways in which organs and areas of the body are designated and contributes thereby to an enhanced understanding of some of the conceptualization mechanisms used by the Inuit.
