Sinossi
Ritorna a distanza di molti anni, e con una nuova introduzione a cura di Paolo Ramat, il libro di uno dei maggiori linguisti e antropologi del Novecento. Il manuale di Sapir si distingue infatti per l'equilibrata fusione di tre elementi: una solida base costituita dalla communis opinio scientifica, uno stile seriamente divulgativo e brillante, una forte dose di originalità, sia propriamente scientifica, sia per quanto riguarda l'approccio culturale generale.
