Beskrivning
The Routledge Handbook of Linguistic Anthropology is a broad survey of linguistic anthropology, featuring contributions from prominent scholars in the field. Each chapter presents a brief historical summary of research in the field and discusses topics and issues of current concern to people doing research in linguistic anthropology. The handbook is organized into four parts – Language and Cultural Productions; Language Ideologies and Practices of Learning; Language and the Communication of Identities; and Language and Local/Global Power – and covers current topics of interest at the intersection of the two fields, while also contextualizing them within discussions of fieldwork practice. Featuring 30 contributions from leading scholars in the field, The Routledge Handbook of Linguistic Anthropology is an essential overview for students and researchers interested in understanding core concepts and key issues in linguistic anthropology.

Recensioner i media

"This reference work provides a neat overview of the subfield of linguistic anthropology, including past research and future directions. (...) Overall, the chapters read as more accessible than is typical for linguistic anthropology, which tends towards jargon and unintelligibility. Part of the reason for this is the mostly standard structure of the entries, each of which offers some combination of historical perspectives, critical/key issues, current contributions and research, recommendations for practice, and future directions. Summing Up: Highly recommended"- E. Pappas, University of Virginia in CHOICE
