Description

Explore the intersection of linguistics and social anthropology with this Routledge volume. This text provides a critical framework for understanding how language relates to modern social anthropology, covering essential topics such as structuralism, symbolism, and classification. Readers will examine the influential works of Saussure, Levi-Strauss, and Chomsky to understand foundational theories in the field. The book includes detailed case studies for practical application. The first study presents a social history of pidgin successions on the West African coast, concluding with Pidgin English. The second study analyzes three language varieties within a trilingual community located in the Carnian Alps. Originally published in 1971, this work remains a significant resource for students and scholars of anthropology and ethnography.
