{ "pk": 35111, "title": "‘A long foot crossing mountains’: Forty-three annotated Pumi riddles", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "In this paper, we present forty-three interlinearized and annotated Pumi riddles. Riddles are a subgenre of poetry, characterized by their syntactic parallelism and use of metaphor. We look at the structural characteristics of riddles and explore their use of metaphor. Riddles appear in a parallel question-answer pair and may be divided into four different sets based on their structure and content: oppositional riddles, locational riddles, person(ified) riddles and action riddles. Metaphors draw from likeness in shape or movement, and to a minor extent from likeness in colour, texture, sound or function. Riddling is a highly endangered art form and this paper aims to document their beauty for posterity.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Pumi, Qiangic, riddles, metaphor, poetry, parallelism, language endangerment" } ], "section": "20.3", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/12b7v529", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Henriette", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Daudey", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "La Trobe University", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Pincuo", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Gerong", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Lijiang Pumi Research Association", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2021-01-07T08:30:02Z", "date_accepted": "2021-01-07T08:30:02Z", "date_published": "2021-12-31T08:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/himalayanlinguistics/article/35111/galley/26151/download/" } ] }
