In Amazonian Quichua Language and Life: Introduction to Grammar,
Ecology, and Discourse from Pastaza and Upper Napo, Janis B.
Nuckolls and Tod D. Swanson discuss two varieties of Quichua, an
indigenous Ecuadorian language. Drawing on their linguistic and
anthropological knowledge, extensive fieldwork, and personal
relationships with generations of speakers from Pastaza and Napo
communities, the authors open a door into worlds of intimate
meaning that knowledge of Quichua makes accessible. Nuckolls and
Swanson link grammatical lessons with examples of naturally
occurring discourse, traditional narratives, conversations, songs,
and personal experiences to teach readers about the languages'
structures and discourse patterns and speakers' sensory depictions,
ecological aesthetics, and emotional perspectives.
