Through thorough examination of Caribbean phytonyms in lexicography, colonization, history, songs and translation studies, the authors argue that the Westernisation of vernacular phytonyms, while systematizing the nomenclature, blurred and erased the cultural tradition of Caribbean plants and medicinal herbs. Means of transmission and preservation of this oral culture was in the plantation songs and herb vendor songs. Musical creativity is a powerful form of resistance, as in the case of Reggae music and the rise of Rastafarians, and Bob Marley’s ‘untranslatable’ lyrics. This book will be of interest to scholars of Caribbean studies and to linguists interested in pushing the current Eurocentric boundaries of translation studies. | | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | | 关键词 | lexicography; phytonymy; travel narratives; contact language; iconography; vernacular orality; language lo | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-40937-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-82222-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-40937-5 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
