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 Pritzkers extraordinary Research Methods in Linguistic Anthropology. * Elinor Ochs, Distinguished Research Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Los Angeles, USA * 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. * Lanuage in Society *
