Résumé:
This book is an intimate story of an Inuit family negotiating the changes brought into their community by the coming of the qallunaat, the white people. Composed in 48 episodes, it recounts the daily life of Sanaaq, a strong and outspoken young widow, her daughter Qumaq, and their small semi-nomadic community in northern Quebec. Here they live their lives hunting seal, repairing their kayak, and gathering mussels under blue sea ice before the tide comes in. These are ordinary extraordinary lives: marriages are made and unmade, children are born and named, violence appears in the form of a fearful husband or a hungry polar bear. Here the spirit world is alive and relations with non-humans are never taken lightly. And under it all, the growing intrusion of the qallunaat and the battle for souls between the Catholic and Anglican missionaries threatens to forever change the way of life of Sanaaq and her young family.

Chasseur, pêcheur, trappeur et homme politique, Taamusi Qumaq (1914-1993) est considéré comme l'un des grands penseurs des Inuit du Nunavik.

Bien qu'unilingue en inuktitut, ce personnage exceptionnel a consacré sa vie à consigner, à l'écrit, la vie des siens ainsi que leur langue – et il s'est à ce titre mérité la reconnaissance de plusieurs institutions, dont celle de l'Assemblée nationale du Québec. Son autobiographie, dont on retrouvera ici la traduction en français, ainsi que pour la première fois sous forme de livre le texte original en inuktitut, constitue un document de grande importance, tant pour les Inuit qui trouveront en lui un modèle, que pour les lecteurs du monde entier qui accèdent par ses mots à un univers culturel fascinant. Avec une introduction de Louis-Jacques Dorais, professeur à l'Université Laval. Ce livre est publié en collaboration avec l'Institut culturel Avataq.

Résumé:
"Words of the Inuit" is an important compendium of Inuit culture illustrated through Inuit words. It brings the sum of the author’s decades of experience and engagement with Inuit and Inuktitut to bear on what he fashions as an amiable, leisurely stroll through words and meanings. Inuit words are often more complex than English words and frequently contain small units of meaning that add up to convey a larger sensibility. Dorais’ lexical and semantic analyses and reconstructions are not overly technical, yet they reliably evince connections and underlying significations that allow for an in-depth reflection on the richness of Inuit linguistic and cultural heritage and identity. An appendix on the polysynthetic character of Inuit languages includes more detailed grammatical description of interest to more specialist readers. Organized thematically, the book tours the histories and meanings of the words to illuminate numerous aspects of Inuit culture, including environment and the land; animals and subsistence activities; humans and spirits; family, kinship, and naming; the human body; and socializing with other people in the contemporary world. It concludes with a reflection on the usefulness for modern Inuit- especially youth and others looking to strengthen their cultural identity- to know about the underlying meanings embedded in their language and culture. With recent reports alerting us to the declining use of the Inuit language in the North, "Words of the Inuit" is a timely contribution to understanding one of the world’s most resilient Indigenous languages.

It took The Battle of James Bay, 1971-1975, for the governments in Québec City and Ottawa to wake up to the disgrace. In this concise, lively account, Zebedee Nungak relates the inside story of how the young Inuit and Cree ''Davids'' took action when Québec began construction on the giant James Bay hydro project. They fought in court and at the negotiation table for an accord that effectively became Canada’s first land-claims agreement. Nungak’s account is accompanied by his essays on Nunavik history. Together they provide a fascinating insight into a virtually unknown chapter of Canadian history.
