The Matrix Of Language : Contemporary Linguistic Anthropology Paperback / softback
by Donald Brenneis
Paperback / softback
Description
The Matrix of Language introduces students and other readers to recent debates in the study of language and culture.
The articles in this anthology, selected for their readability, present a range of methodological approaches and well-known case studies that illustrate the interconnection of language, culture, and social practice.
The editors' introductory essays compare and contrast specific approaches in four broad areas: language and socialization, gender, the ethnography of speaking, and the role of language in social and political life.
The book is a valuable introduction in linguistic anthropology and sociolinguistics courses and a resource for anyone exploring the relation of language to psychology, political theory, feminist studies, and literature and folklore.
