Tim Thornes, a professor of linguistics in the English department, served as co-editor of a special volume published by the International Journal of American Linguistics entitled “Uto-Aztecan Narratives.” The volume is part of the “Texts in the Indigenous Languages of the Americas” series, an annual complement to the quarterly journal. It features oral narrative samples, fully annotated, from ten languages of the Uto-Aztecan family. A separate volume, also co-edited by Thornes, was published last year entitled “Northern Paiute Texts Across Varieties.”
