The relationship between language and various kinds of
non-linguistic behaviour has been of great fascination for many of
those working in the fields of cultural anthropology, linguistics,
and philosophy or, broadly understood, cultural studies. The
authors in this volume explore this relationship in a number of
cultures and social contexts and discuss the problem of linguistic
relativism and its application to a several areas of social
interaction across cultures. The authors deal with such questions
as how language and culture intersect resulting in different points
of view on reality that are all equally authentic and rooted in
experience. The question of the influence of language and culture
on our perception of physical and social reality is re-examined for
such domains as politics, commerce, working with people, religion,
and gender relations.
