{"product_id":"children-of-the-sago-alexander-zahrer-9783985541522","title":"Children of the sago: Muyu texts","description":"This collection of ten texts offers a unique glimpse into the language and culture of the Muyu, a Papuan people living in the heart of New Guinea. It features narratives from six storytellers, all of which have been transcribed, translated, and linguistically annotated. The presentation follows a two-part structure: first, a parallel-text format with Muyu and English arranged in columns; second, an interlinearized version for detailed linguistic analysis. The texts revolve around two central themes-myths of origin and accounts of encounters with animals. A brief introduction to the Muyu language and its speakers precedes the texts, providing essential context for readers from both linguistic and anthropological backgrounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexander Zahrer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3985541523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783985541522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Language Science Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.75d","brand":"Alexander Zahrer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48447001886975,"sku":"9783985541522","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9c4479ee-7648-408f-bdd6-58bc59e1913d.jpg?v=1777228172","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/children-of-the-sago-alexander-zahrer-9783985541522","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
