Making Sense of Language: Readings in Culture and Communication - manbookgalery.com
Chosen for their accessibility and variety, the readings in <em>Making Sense of Language: Readings in Culture and Communication</em>, Third Edition, engage students in thinking about the nature of language--arguably the most uniquely human of all our characteristics--and its involvement in every aspect of human society and experience. Instead of taking an ideological stance on specific issues, the text presents a range of theoretical and disciplinary perspectives and bolsters them with pedagogical support, including unit and chapter introductions; critical-thinking, reading, and application questions; suggested further reading; and a comprehensive glossary. Questions of power, identity, interaction, ideology, and the nature of language and other semiotic systems are woven throughout the third edition of <em>Making Sense of Language</em>, making it an exemplary text for courses in language and culture, linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, and four-field anthropology.<br />
