Language Dispersal Beyond Farming

Why do some languages wither and die, while others prosper and spread? Around the turn of the millennium a number of archaeologists such as Colin Renfrew and Peter Bellwood made the controversial claim that many of the world’s major language families owe their dispersal to the adoption of agriculture by their early speakers. In this volume, their proposal is reassessed by linguists, investigating to what extent the economic dependence on plant cultivation really impacted language spread in various parts of the world. Special attention is paid to "tricky" language families such as Eskimo-Aleut, Quechua, Aymara, Bantu, Indo-European, Transeurasian, Turkic, Japano-Koreanic, Hmong-Mien and Trans-New Guinea, that cannot unequivocally be regarded as instances of Farming/Language Dispersal, even if subsistence played a role in their expansion.

The long-awaited new title from Amazon bestselling author, Lucy H. Pearce, Burning Woman is an incendiary exploration of power and the Feminine. Pearce uncovers the archetype of the Burning Woman, fearlessly examining the roots of Feminine power--what it is, how it has been controlled, and why it needs to be unleashed on the world during our modern Burning Times. These burning words were written for women who burn with passion, have been burned with shame, and who at another time, in another place, would have been burned at the stake.
