Description: Special Topics in linguistics. Please contact the department for details on offered topics. SPRING 2024 TOPIC: ETHNOGRAPHY. This semester's Special Topics course is on ethnography. Linguistic ethnography is a growing, moving, and changing field. This course aims to capture some of those moving parts by studying approaches to experimental design, data collection, and data analysis from interactional sociolinguistic perspectives. That means we will focus on membership to cultural groups and the ways speakers linguistically (and otherwise) signal aspects of themselves in relation to such groups. We will look at research across all levels of language (e.g., from sounds to clauses to interaction), and we will think about the positionality of the researcher as we develop our own methods and experiments. Repeatable for Credit.
