The role of language in social life cannot be understood without a study of the interface between linguistic forms and the cultural practices that they help constitute. Linguistic anthropologists have been at the forefront of such a study for decades, and "A Companion to Linguistic Anthropology" continues in the same tradition by providing a series of in-depth explorations of key areas of study by some of the scholars whose work constitutes the foundations of the contemporary investigation of language as culture. Senior scholars who have shaped the field are joined by more junior colleagues who provide a fresh perspective on well-established areas of inquiry and new conceptualizations. It includes a comprehensive bibliography of over 2,000 entries designed as a resource for anyone seeking a guide to the literature of linguistic anthropology.
