Review
"In many ways it is the text I have always wanted for my course, and includes every major topic in linguistic anthropology that I usually present. In my opinion, the greatest strength of the book is that is is specifically written with the students in mind. Also, the book is sufficiently current and research based, while not containing material that is superfluous, dated, or misleading for undergraduate students."
"The strength of the text (its absolute charm) is the extraordinarily personal approach of the author. Students will feel that they know this person. The various encounters described provide ample evidence that one "does" anthropological linguistics in every interpersonal encounter, ever communication situation."
Product Description
This text provides an introduction to the field of linguistic anthropology, which appeals to undergraduates from a wide variety of fields and at a wide variety of levels, from freshmen to seniors. This text comes with access to a companion website designed to make the intersection of linguistics and anthropology accessible and interesting to undergraduate students. In addition to THE ANTHROPOLOGY OF LANGUAGE, Harriet Ottenheimer has also creating a workbook/reader that is a perfect bundle option for this text. See the supplement section for details.
