«The book provides an invaluable sourcebook/guide, with innovative approaches for researchers wanting to document language, culture, and human sociality as phenomena emergent through interactive practices. State-of-the-art chapters creatively investigate how to approach, conduct, and document fieldwork in linguistic anthropology with flexibility, ethics, and contingency always in the forefront.»
Marjorie Harness Goodwin, Distinguished Research Professor of Anthropology, UCLA, USA
«When I ventured to Madagascar in 1969, I took along a portable tape recorder, 35mm camera, and revered monograph as inspiration and proceeded to improvise fieldwork. I so wish I could reverse history to benefit from the practical, ethical, and theory-relevant apprenticeship offered in Perrino and Pritzker’s extraordinary Research Methods in Linguistic Anthropology.»
Elinor Ochs, Distinguished Research Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Los Angeles
«This book offers a broad perspective of methods from multiple authors and a diverse perspective of how those methods can be conceptualized and applied in different social and historical contexts. Therefore, this volume is a key resource for students as well as experienced researchers in linguistic anthropology and related fields.»
