A handy beginner's guide, this textbook introduces the various
stages of linguistic fieldwork, from the preparation of the work to
the presentation of the results. Drawing on over forty years of
fieldwork experience between them, in over two dozen languages, the
authors pack the book with examples and anecdotes from their
experiences and include practical exercises for students to test
what they have learned. Independent of any particular perspective,
the methods can be applied to a wide range of fieldwork settings,
for projects with very different theoretical backgrounds and
without the need to travel too far. The book covers 'traditional
fieldwork' such as language description and documentation, as well
as less typical methods, including language contact and
quantitative studies with experiments or questionnaires.
