Abstract

Linguistic Anthropology is an area within social anthropology with a special focus on the connections between language and culture, cultural and social dimensions of language use. It readily adopts and adjusts to anthropological agenda methods from other disciplines that help to enhance our understanding of language and communication as social and cultural practice (such as conversation analysis or discourse analysis). This course is designed specifically for historians in their senior BA-years. It aims to introduce students to the main ideas and methods of linguistic anthropology and to give them tools from its store useful for their analysis of different written and oral historical sources. The course gives general overview of the main problems of Linguistic Anthropology, such as linguistic relativity, and the key notions and concepts of the discipline. Yet the main focus is on the particular ways of understanding oral and written interaction elaborated by linguistic anthropologists. Practical exercises should help students to master particular techniques of oral and written communication analysis.
