EDISI 3/2019 - LANGUAGE COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE

Ringkasan Artikel

COMMUNICATION has existed since the beginning of mankind, but it was not until the 20th century that people began to study the process. Language is central within a cultural system, shapes speakers’ different assumptions and world views, and is key to communication. It is no doubt that communication plays a very important role in everyone’s life as it can act as a source of information, help people to socialise, and alter an individual’s attitude. Communication and other social sciences researchers draw on each other’s works to study language and culture. During the European Middle Ages and Renaissance period, grammar, rhetoric, and logic constituted the entire trivium, which is the base of the system of classical learning in Europe. The use of various research methods and theoretical frameworks has also resulted in a rich interdisciplinary nature of the work. Therefore, the main goal of this issue is to sketch the negotiations of the areas, and the study of language and culture in the communication disciplines among our researchers.
