This course introduces the methods, theories and insights of linguistic anthropology, addressing questions of how, what, when, where, why and with whom we communicate. Three main areas of linguistic anthropology are examined: structural linguistics, including phonology, morphology, the study of syntax and the biocultural basis of language; historical linguistics, including language origins and evolution, language families and dialects, and language change; and, sociolinguistics, including the relationship between culture and language, language use in social context(s), language acquisition, language loss and conservation, and the connections between language, power and identity.Usually HeldTue Thu 12:45pm–2:10pm
