Inhaltsangabe

With linguistic and cultural diversity increasingly under attack, Ana Celia Zentella’s work becomes more and more poignant

Now more than ever, questions of the interplay and interdependency between academic work and activism are crucial. This book traces these questions through the work of one thinker, Ana Celia Zentella, who has made important contributions to the development of both linguistics and anthropology over the course of her career. The book presents key pieces of her anthropolitical work, the lived experience of language use, and activism. It traces how her thinking has evolved and how her activism has informed her academic work, and vice versa. The book will be both a valuable introduction to her work for new students, and an accessible selection of reading for scholars wishing to trace the development of key current debates in linguistics and anthropology.
