Description

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..
