Linguistic Anthropology

Alessandro Duranti introduces linguistic anthropology as an interdisciplinary field that studies language as a cultural resource and speaking as a cultural practice. The theories and methods of linguistic anthropology are introduced through a discussion of linguistic diversity, grammar in use, the role of speaking in social interaction, the organization and meaning of conversational structures, and the notion of participation as a unit of analysis. "Linguistic Anthropology" will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Linguistic Anthropology
