| dc.description.abstract | Evans & Levinson (E&L)advocate taking linguistic diversity at "face value". Their argument consists of a list
of diverse phenomena, and the assertion that no non-vacuous theory could possibly uncover a
meaningful unity underlying them. I argue, with evidence from Tlingit and Warlpiri, that E&L's list
itself should not be taken at face value — and that the actual research record already demonstrates
unity amidst diversity. | en |
