Description

This course explores South Asia—especially India and Pakistan—through the study of its language in relation to culture and society. How are local ways of life, conventions of social interaction, religious and political traditions, and social hierarchies reflected in and constituted by linguistic practices? The main topics include language and social interaction, social stratification, the political economy of language, gender, and religion, nationalism, and technology. We’ll look at these issues through a variety of media, including social media, online videos, movies, and newspapers.
