The fourteen chapters of this volume investigate this interaction, drawing on the insights provided by the languages and cultures of the region, and exploring how the Upper Rio Negro profile has been shaped by forces promoting both similarity and difference. The collection draws on the growing dialogue between linguists and anthropologists, and emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach to questions that involve both language and culture.
Companion volume to Alto Xingu, uma Sociedade Multilíngue (Franchetto, 2011), both available for download on the Museunacional link.
