The Department of Spanish and Portuguese is hosting a talk by Anari Bomfim, a Ph.D. candidate at the Museu Nacional/Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She is a member of the Pataxó people and will be reporting on the revitalization of their language, Patxohã, which is from the Macro-Jê family of South America. The title of her talk is "Patxohã, 'língua de guerreiro': O protagonismo do Povo Pataxó na retomada de sua língua originária" or "Patxohã, 'a warrior's language': The central role of the Pataxó people in the recovery of their language." This will be taking place on Thursday, January 10, from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM, in the Regents Room (room 206) of the Goldring Student Centre. Note that the talk will be presented in Brazilian Portuguese but will have slides and a Q&A session in both that and English.
