Language Documentation and Description Volume 3
Volume 3 is a collection of papers dealing with two topics in language documentation:
- Multidisciplinary approaches to language documentation
- Language contact, variation and language documentation
Most of the papers arose from workshops held at SOAS in December 2004 and February 2005. They represent important contributions to the theory and practice of the field of language documentation by leading scholars and younger researchers. The volume will be of interest to anyone concerned with documenting and describing languages.
Cost: £10.00 (postage included); for ordering information, see below.
