The Matrix of Language introduces students and other readers to
recent debates in the study of language and culture. The articles
in this anthology, selected for their readability, present a range
of methodological approaches and well-known case studies that
illustrate the interconnection of language, culture, and social
practice. The editors' introductory essays compare and contrast
specific approaches in four broad areas: language and
socialization, gender, the ethnography of speaking, and the role of
language in social and political life. The book is a valuable
introduction in linguistic anthropology and sociolinguistics
courses and a resource for anyone exploring the relation of
language to psychology, political theory, feminist studies, and
literature and folklore.
