Extensive discussions on the role of language and other symbolic systems in culture, ethnographic method, and social interaction are also included. Ethnographic and linguistic examples are drawn from Sapir's fieldwork among native North Americans and from European and American society as well. Edward Sapir (1884-1939), one of this century's leading figures in American anthropology and linguistics, planned to publish a major theoretical statement on culture and psychology. He developed his ideas in a course of lectures presented at Yale University in the 1930's, which attracted a wide audience from many social science disciplines. Unfortunately, he died before the book he had contracted to publish could be realized. Like de Saussure's Cours de Linguistique Générale before it, this work has been reconstructed from student notes, in this case twenty-two sets, as well as from Sapir's manuscript materials. Judith Irvine's meticulous reconstruction makes Sapir's compelling ideas - of surprisingly contemporary resonance - available for the first time. 606 $aCulture 606 $aEthnopsychology 606 $aPersonality and culture 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aEthnopsychology. 615 0$aPersonality and culture. 676 $a306 686 $aCV 7500$2rvk 700 $aSapir$b Edward$f1884-1939.$0118866 701 $aIrvine$b Judith T$0166739 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789479403321 996 $aThe psychology of culture$93675921 997 $aUNINA
