| Description: | Dans cette vidéo, le forgeron commence son travail par mettre en place le monde qui lui permet de prend chaque element dans son environnement immediat pour bien comprendre les forces naturelles et surnaturelles. Le monde qu'il met en place s'appelle "Palah"en Cuvok. La representation du monde se fait à l'aide des pierres auxquelles il attribue des noms selon l'environnement de la personne qui sollicite la divination pour un problème particulier. | |
| Cuvok is a Central Chadic language spoken in the Far North Region of Cameroon. Tchouvok traditional society pivots around blacksmiths, who play a number of other key social roles: doctor, metalworker, mortician, mind-reader, and midwife. With the introduction of Islam, Christianity and modernism, the knowledge possessed by the blacksmith is no longer transmitted to the younger generation. This documentation project is integrated into my PhD research, which aims at a usage-based grammatical description of Cuvok. Much of my corpus will be composed of video recordings. Ethnographic notes will complement my annotated texts. | ||
