| Summary: | Since the conquest of Siberia in the sixteenth century and the colonization that followed,the history of vernacular languages has often been linked to the language policyof the Russian state, between disinterest, promotion and instrumentalization. Historyhas been written from the sole point of view of the dominant culture. After a brief reviewof the linguistic interactions between the Russian and indigenous worlds in Imperialand Soviet Siberia, particularly in the light of the school, it will be necessary to considerthe point of view of the communities themselves, using the example of the Nenets, Khanty and Mansi of (sub)Arctic Siberia. Based mainly on fieldwork and life storiescollected from 2013 to 2018 in the tundras of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrugand in the forests of the Khanty-Mansi - Yugra Autonomous Okrug, this article seeksto restore the indigenous narrative and highlight the paths explored by the Tundrovikiand Tajožniki in the early twenty-first century to maintain a bubbling space for self-expressionin the face of the inner demons of the dominant culture and the discouragementof some communities themselves. |
