AISRI
Publications
AISRI sponsors a variety of publications that contribute
to the field of American Indian studies. These publications
are:
- Studies in the Anthropology of North American Indians
A monograph
series published jointly by AISRI and the University
of Nebraska Press. Contributions in the series include
data oriented studies in ethnography, ethnohistory,
folklore, and linguistics.
- Sources of American Indian Oral Literature
This is another series
published jointly by AISRI and the University of Nebraska
Press. Contributions in it include reprints of English-language
collections of oral traditions published earlier in
the century as well as collections not previously
published.
- Studies in the Native Languages of the Americas
Each year
the Society for the Study of the Indigenous Languages
of the Americas sponsors a competition in which younger
scholars submit descriptive works written that year
on American Indian languages. The competition winner
receives the Mary R. Haas Award, named for the prominent
linguist. It recognizes and encourages the finest
work in indigenous American language studies based
on significant field work. This series was established
to publish the award-winning monographs.
- Anthropological
Linguistics
Anthropological Linguistics is
a journal jointly sponsored by AISRI and the Department
of Anthropology. The journal embraces the languages
of the world, but with a particular emphasis on the
Americas. The special mission of the interdisciplinary
journal is to foster work that is simultaneously linguistic
and anthropological in nature, upholding the highest
standards in both areas.
In addition, AISRI has also
published
language learning books and other teaching aides for
Arikara, Assiniboine, and Pawnee.
