Canal UNED: An invitation to Linguistic Anthropology


In this series, we aim to think and reflect on language from an anthropological perspective. From this perspective, language is not something abstract and isolated, but the expression of a universal human faculty: language, which manifests itself only in concrete social practices. The languages ​​we speak are closely related to the social positions we occupy, to cultural differences, to the relationships we establish with others, and to our ways of inhabiting and understanding the world. The relationship between language and culture, linguistic diversity, oral and written forms, accents, glottophobia, metaphors, and discourse are some of the topics we will explore in this series dedicated to linguistic anthropology.
