The course explores issues around the reclaiming of languages by
reference to the case of Kaurna, the South Australian indigenous
language spoken in what is now known as the Adelaide region. The course
gives a fascinating insight into the ways in which Kaurna sources are
being used to forge a new Kaurna identity and develop an associated
language which is being used to address contemporary needs. This course
will allow you to: learn some Kaurna language; develop an understanding
of the structure of the Kaurna language; understand the context (or
ecology) in which the Kaurna language existed at the time of
colonisation in the 1830s and 1840s; and appreciate the circumstances
under which the Kaurna language is being revived. Parallels and
contrasts will be drawn between efforts to re-introduce Kaurna and
similar efforts in neighbouring languages, elsewhere in Australia and
overseas.
