Book Synopsis : As a young anthropologist, Don Kulick?went to the tiny village of Gapun in New Guinea to document the death of?the native?language, Tayap. He arrived knowing that you can?t study a language without?understanding the daily?lives of the people who speak it: how they talk to?their children, how they argue, how they gossip, how they joke.?Over the course?of thirty years, he returned again and again to document Tayap before it?disappeared entirely, and he?found himself inexorably drawn into their world,?and implicated in their destiny. Kulick wanted to tell the story of?Gapuners?one?that went beyond the particulars and uses of their language?that took full?stock of their vanishing?culture. This book takes us inside the village as he came?to know it, revealing what it is like to live in a difficult-to-get-to village?of two hundred people, carved out like a cleft in the middle of a tropical?rainforest. But?A Death in the Rainforest?is also an illuminating look at the impact of white society .
