In the process, Boas developed an alternative linguistic model where race, language, and culture may be separated from-and can function independently of-each other. This model allows an external observer to develop a keen understanding of any given language without the need to solicit value-laden information-such as cultural, religious, or social judgments-from native speakers. Thus, secondary rationalizations, while important, may be bypassed in any attempt of a non-native linguist to understand and reconstruct a given language. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/79w2463v Mon, 22 Feb 2021 00:00:00 +0000 Yanka, Amelia Rex, Ed https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7749z6gn The Sensation of Wind:Breaking the Hierarchy in Reading, a Study in Affective Theory https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7749z6gn Thu, 16 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Ray, Chloe https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0w46930v Disability studies, Disney, Cultural studies, media studies, film https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0w46930v Tue, 4 Dec 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Lammouchi, Noelle https://escholarship.org/uc/item/67f3b5qz The Art of Bias: the New Journalism of Thompson and Wolfe https://escholarship.org/uc/item/67f3b5qz Wed, 30 May 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Schwass, Nathaniel https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7d04338s Disney and Disability: Recasting the Normative Body in Immersive Media https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7d04338s Sat, 26 May 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Lammouchi, Noelle
