Title:1770 MAGENS
Contributor (author):Magens
Coverage:Virgin Islands (US)
Date:1770
Description:Proverbs and dialogues between planters, their family members, friends, and their slaves.
Proverbs and dialogues between planters, their family members, friends, and their slaves. They were published in 1770 in a grammar of (acrolectal) Negerhollands by J.M. Magens, a native speaker of acrolectal Negerhollands born on St. Thomas: Grammatica over det Creolske Sprog, som bruges paa de trende Danske Eilande, St. Croix, St. Thomas og St. Jans i America, sammenskrevet og opsat af en paa St. Thomas indföd Mand. The version included here is taken from Hesseling (1905), who translated the original Danish parts into Dutch.
The author being a native speaker of acrolectal Negerhollands (or perhaps, Magens being of European descent, the term Virgin Islands Dutch Creole is more fitting), this New Testament translation logically represents acrolectal Negerhollands.
City prefect of St. John, born on St. Thomas, as a Danish citizen. He was a scholar in philology (Van Rossem & Van der Voort 1996: 29-30).
