Edward Sapir: Linguist, Anthropologist, Humanist
Regna Darnell
This first full-scale biography of Edward Sapir (1884-1939) does justice to the life and ideas of the most distinguished linguist of Boasian anthropology, who contributed substantially to the professionalization of linguistics as an independent discipline. All the richness and diversity of Sapir's relatively short life are conveyed by Regna Darnell in an engrossing narrative.
