(Our colleague who had been scheduled to cover these courses has just recently accepted a tenure-track line at a nearby college, for which we are happy, but also provides this unanticipated need.) <div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Applicants must be able to address formal linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics) as well as pragmatics with an anthropological focus. PhD. preferred, but ABD candidates may be considered, depending on experience. <div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The two courses are scheduled to be taught in-person at SSU’s campus (a California State University) in Rohnert Park, CA, 36 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge in the North Bay Area of Northern California. At this point, we do *not* expect to be able to offer the sections remotely.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">ANTH 200 Introduction to the Study of Language is a lower-division, general education course with an enrollment of 50, scheduled for Mondays and Wednesdays, 9:30-10:45AM. This introduction to the anthropological study of language surveys core topics in linguistics (e.g., phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics) and the relationship of language to social, cultural, and psychological factors. Nonverbal communication, evolution of language abilities, and historical linguistics are included, with linkages to the other subfields of anthropology. Satisfies GE Area C2 (Literature, Philosophy, Languages). </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">ANTH 383 Language in Sociopolitical Context is an upper-division undergraduate major course with an enrollment of 25-30, scheduled for Mondays and Wednesdays, 3:00-4:40PM. Focus is on such topics as language attitudes, political power and linguistic equality, language and sociopolitical institutions, and language planning. Practical introduction to the insights offered by discourse analysis to the study of language varieties reflected in particular geographical regions, and by members of particular social classes/groups. (This course is intentionally timed to coincide with the US midterm election cycle.) </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Applicants should send a current curriculum vitae and a cover letter highlighting relevant teaching experience to <a href="mailto:anthro@sonoma.edu" class="">anthro@sonoma.edu</a>. All questions may also be directed to that same address.
