[Linganth] New SLA Blog Post, by Steven Black, "Transposition Across Subfields"

[SLA Online]

Dear All,

Please check out our most recent SLA blog post by Steven Black,
"Transposition Across Subfields":

http://linguisticanthropology.org/sla-blog/transposition-across-subfields/

 It includes a welcome discussion of the intricacies of working across
sub-disciplines in Anthropology, as well as an overview of his new book:
*Speech and Song at the Margins of Global Health: Zulu Tradition, HIV
Stigma, and AIDS Activism in South Africa*.

We are very interested in receiving submissions, so please send us your
ideas for a post!!

If you are interesting in submitting a post keep in mind the following
guidelines:

   1. Blog posts shall be relatively brief—somewhere around 4-7 paragraphs.
   2. Entry topics have been organized into four categories, without
   barring any topics related to issues important to SLA that members might
   want to write about. The list below is by no means exhaustive, and meant
   only to provide a sketch of what might be featured.
      1. Methods and research (relationships with interlocutors,
      organization techniques and strategies, ethnographic methods, use of
      software for transcription/organization)
      2. Academic life (issues in teaching, challenges for writing, labor
      in tenure-track, adjunct, or grad student positions)
      3. Topics in the discipline (language ideologies, language
      revitalization, sign-interpretant relationships, sociophonetics,
      etc.)*
      4.

      Linguistic anthropology in practice (on work in the discipline that
      happens outside of academic institutions, beyond the classroom)

**Please note that 2019 has been declared Year of Indigenous Languages by
some global institutions and SLA will be participating in this focus in
ways yet undisclosed; a blog post on this topic would be fitting once we
know more as to the initiatives.*

Any SLA members interested in having a piece featured on the SLA blog should
contact Elizabeth Falconi, Digital Media Director and Diego Arispe-Bazán,
Social Media Manager, via soclinganth at gmail.com, with a topic proposal, 3-4
sentences long.

All the best,

Lizzy and Diego
