Hardback. Condizione: New. Drawing on amateur glossaries as well as scholarly dictionaries, this book explores the idiomatic use of toponyms, or place names, either tied to Barbados or connected to the island's colonial legacy, while chronicling its lexicographic tradition. By tracing their etymological origin and establishing their cultural relevance, the volume focuses on Barbadian toponymic idioms, namely Bajanyms, and their pivotal role in conveying collective memory and shaping national identity. When geographical names transcend their literal meanings and acquire figurative nuances, they carry historical significance, embody local folklore, and reflect societal values. Consequently, the cataloging of the idiomatic toponymic inventory of Barbadian English and Bajan offers insights into their uniqueness. Dedicated to Barbadophiles, this homage to Barbadianness is intended to preserve the speech community's linguistic heritage, at risk of fading in the face of modernization and globalization.A fascinating insight into the history of Barbados through its toponyms, which tell their own story of the island's evolution, but which also need this style of careful analysis so that the uninitiated reader may avoid the linguistic pitfalls. Strongly recommended to all linguistic, cultural, and historical researchers as well as to undergraduate and graduate students. - John Simpson, OBE, Editor of The Oxford English Dictionary, 2nd edition, and The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Proverbs.
