Book excerpt: Part 1 of this volume interprets cultural meaning as revealed in prosodic and temporal phenomena in spoken English discourse data. The emerging theme is the (re)construction of American Indian tribal indentities in terms of a newly created intertribal consciousness in an urban setting.
