This book contributes to understandings of linguistic anthropology within the context of the wider Persianate world, covering Iranian language societies in both their homelands, and in the diaspora. It demarcates language ideologies - feelings, beliefs of language, and linguistic forms in their broad terms; semiotic processes - signs and their indexical meanings; affect emotions, or what sensory perceptions do in society; language socialization and language development; discourse analyses; and literacy, secrecy and textuality. Bringing together linguists and anthropologists to chart the far-reaching diaspora of the Iranian community under the rubric of poetics and anthropology, it is a relevant collection for scholars in Near Eastern studies, in areas of languages and linguistics, literature, semiotics, cultural studies, social sciences, and diaspora studies.
