This course in anthropology and ethnography of language illustrates how Middle Eastern cultures employ language to construct and reflect values, identities and institutions, to create relationships and project personal status, and to perform actions (such as ending a phone call, apologizing, paying compliments and negotiating business deals). Particular attention will be paid to the language of health and healing. No prior knowledge of a particular language or culture is assumed. Open to all classes.
