Zusammenfassung: | The Cajuns are an ethnic minority of the United States who have lived mainly in south-central and southwestern Louisiana since the late eighteenth century. The term generally applies to the descendants of the French Acadians who migrated from Canada to Louisiana. This file includes eighteen documents and covers the period from the late eighteenth century to the 1980s. These documents include a heavy emphasis on cultural history and the Cajun concept of ethnic identity. Probably the best general ethnography for the file is Ancelet which presents a comprehensive study of Acadian/Cajun cultural history from the early seventeenth century in Nova Scotia to the present day in Louisiana. It also includes contemporary data on family religion, folk medicine and law, architecture, foodways, music, games, and oral literary traditions. Esman provides an ethnographic survey of the community of Henderson, La. which includes data on the history of the community, its economy, restaurants, family life, sex roles, social life, religion, politics, play and leisure activities, and relations with neighboring communities and with other ethnic minority groups |
