Synopsis
Dakota Grammar, Texts And Ethnography (1893) is a comprehensive anthropological and linguistic study of the Dakota people, written by Stephen Return Riggs. The book is divided into three parts: grammar, texts, and ethnography. The grammar section provides a detailed analysis of the Dakota language, including its phonetics, morphology, and syntax. The texts section includes a collection of traditional Dakota stories and legends, as well as examples of Dakota poetry and songs. The ethnography section provides a detailed account of Dakota culture and society, including their religious beliefs, social customs, and daily life. Riggs draws on his own experiences living among the Dakota people to provide a rich and nuanced portrait of their culture. Dakota Grammar, Texts And Ethnography is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Dakota language and culture, as well as for scholars of anthropology and linguistics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
