This book offers a state-of-the-art guide to linguistic fieldwork,
reflecting its collaborative nature across the subfields of
linguistics and disciplines such as astronomy, anthropology,
biology, musicology, and ethnography. Experienced scholars and
fieldworkers explain the methods and approaches needed to
understand a language in its full cultural context and to document
it accessibly and enduringly. They consider the application of new
technological approaches to recording and documentation, but never
lose sight of the crucial relationship between subject and
researcher. The book is timely: an increased awareness of dying
languages and vanishing dialects has stimulated the impetus for
recording them as well as the funds required to do so. The handbook
is an indispensible source, guide, and reference for everyone
involved in linguistic and cultural work.
