Isi artikel

This article argues that the spiritual inspiration required, according to the Surui shamans, to utter their supposedly immutable songs, may be traced back to specific linguistic features of these songs: prominent prosodie structure, syntagmatic structure that follows complex principles, indeterminacy of the reference of some deictic pronouns, and paradoxical use of evidential markers.
