Project

ID: SG0057

Name: 0139-SG0057

Description: The aim of the project is to produce an annotated and illustrated Golpa story book about the Golpa people, their land and culture. Golpa is a severely endangered YolNGu language (Yirritja moiety) spoken on Elcho Island, Northern Territory, Australia. Most stories in the book are part of a large collection of audio recordings made back in the 1960s. The narrator of these texts is the father of today's Golpa speakers/consultants. Until this project these texts have never been processed. There are only very few Golpa left who still speak and/or understand the language to a considerable extent. The processing of these recordings will reveal and document linguistic and cultural knowledge about a dying Australian indigenous group and make it accessible to the community as well as to researchers.This project is the first attempt to document and describe the Golpa language (and culture).

Description: Golpa is a YolNGu language and thus belongs to the Pama-Nyungan language family. Within the YolNGu language bloc it is counted among the NhaNGu varieties.The linguist Bernhard Schebeck has made numerous recordings of JBG's father in the 1960s. This project is the first attempt to process these recordings. Apart from this material and very few remarks on Golpa's grammatical system there are no records of the language.
