Produktinformationen zu „Creating Identity “
Name forms and naming traditions among North American Indians have not
previously been studied, leading to references to Black Elk as Elk, Black (found
by the author in a major bibliographic database).
This book examines naming practices among North American Indians
including:
1. What are the naming practices among North American Indians?
2. Are North American Indian names found in the publication environment?
3. Is it necessary to standardize North American Indian names?
4.What are the authority control rules for North American Indian names and
can they be made adequate?
5. How are North American Indian names presented in national authority
files?
Results include documenting three name forms (European-form, Traditional,
and Mixed form) and two name patterns that are not found among other
Americans (name sets and name sequences).
The book will interest library catalogers, librarians with significant American
Indian colections, students of Native American Studies, and Onomasticians.
