New World Babelis an innovative
cultural and intellectual history of the
languages spoken by the native
peoples of North America from the
earliest era of European conquest
through the beginning of the nine¬
teenth century. By focusing on
different aspects of the Euro-Ameri¬
can response to indigenous speech,
Edward Gray illuminates the ways in
which Europeans' changing under¬
standing of "language" shaped their
relations with Native Americans. The
work also brings to light something no
historian has treated in any sustained
fashion: early America was a place of
enormous linguistic diversity, with
acute social and cultural problems
associated with multilingualism.
Beginning with the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries, and using
rarely seen firsthand accounts of
colonial missionaries and administra¬
tors, the author shows that European
explorers and colonists generally
regarded American-Indian languages,
like all languages, as a divine endow¬
ment that bore only a superficial
relationship to the distinct cultures of
speakers. By relating these accounts to
thinkers like Locke, Adam Smith,
Jefferson, and others who sought to
incorporate their findings into a
broader picture of human develop¬
ment, he demonstrates how, during
the eighteenth century, this percep¬
tion gave way to the notion that
language was a human innovation,
and, as such, reflected the apparent
social and intellectual differences of
the world's peoples.
The book is divided into six chrono¬
logical chapters, each focusing on
different aspects of the Euro-Ameri¬
can response to indigenous languages.
New World Babel vail fascinate histori¬
ans, anthropologists, and linguists
anyone interested in the history of
literacy, print culture, and early
ethnological thought.
Edward G. Gray is Assistant Professor
of History at Florida State University.
He is currently a Mellon Post-Doctoral
Fellow at the
