Description: The majority of the Jane M. Rosenthal Papers centers on Nahuatl linguistic and anthropological research. Materials therefore appear extensively in every series. Rosenthal's own fieldwork on Tlaxcaltec (Acxotla del Monte, Tlaxcala, Mexico) spanned the 1970s and 1980s, involving the production of 17 field notebooks (Series 2 Subseries 1) with accompanying tapes (Series 10, available in the Digital Library), lexical slips (Series 7), photographs (Series 8) and much correspondence, in Spanish, with members of the Atonal and de Texis families (Series 1). Jane Hill also conducted research with many of the same consultants, works by whom (including interview transcriptions) can be found mostly in Series 5. Rosenthal also engaged with preexisting primary sources at archives in Mexico and the U.S., creating transcriptions and interlinearizations of texts (Series 2 Subseries 2), and produced several articles on Nahuatl grammar, Nahua culture and interactions with missions (Series 2 Subseries 3). Further to her own work, this collection contains much gathered material by others. In addition to that of Jane and Kenneth Hill, several drafts and publications by fellow University of Chicago student Kay A. Read on Nahua/Aztec religion appear in Series 5, and publications and commentary with other Uto-Aztecanists are scattered throughout Series 1 and 5. Rosenthal was heavily involved in the meetings of the Friends of Uto-Aztecan from its inception in 1973, many handouts from which (relating to a variety of Uto-Aztecan languages) can be found in Series 6. Her student notes, many produced by Norman McQuown (Series 3), and teaching notes (Series 4) may also be of interest.

Description: There are many materials relating to Uto-Aztecan languages in the C. F. Voegelin Papers. This entry is intended as a catch-all for materials labeled as Uto-Aztecan. Researchers should also view the entries for specific Uto-Aztecan languages and culture groups. Uto-Aztecan materials are located in both Subcollection I and Subcollection II. In Subcollection I, there are two files of Uto-Aztecan linguistic notes (including lists of possessive forms and an envelope of vocabulary slips in #2) in Series V. Research Notes, Subseries V-A: Language Notes. In Subcollection II, there is relevant correspondence with Morris Swadesh in Series I. Correspondence. There is also a subseries devoted to Uto-Aztecan languages in Series II. Research Notes. Subseries IX. Uto-Aztecan, except Hopi contains a Uto-Aztecan cognate list, Uto-Aztecan comparative notes, Uto-Aztecan comparative vocabulary lists, and several files devoted to specific languages and language areas. These include Baja California, Bannock, California, Hopi, Luiseño, Mono, Nahuatl, Papago (Tohono O'odham), Shoshone, Southern Paiute, Tepecano, Tübatulabal, Warao, and Zacapoaxtlateco (Nahuatl).
