Starting with geographical and physical studies at several German universities, he later got insterested in the culture and languages of the indigenous peoples of North America. Boas was particularly interested in the role of apperception in language acquisition. Eventually, he transferred the results of his observations on language perception to the wide field of culture, developing the notion of acculturation analogical to apperception. Already the early Boas’s publications contain the origins of the idea of linguistic relativity, which later will be formulated in the shape of the so-called “Sapir–Whorf Hypothesis”. Extremely interesting and original was Boas’s attitude to the concept of phoneme, which was formed precisely during the years of creative activity and the most striking achievements of Boas’s school. Finally, the peculiarities of the fieldwork style of this American scholar, as well as his “analytism” in work on the grammars of Native American languages, certainly influenced the development of descriptive linguistics in general.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Франца Боаса (1858–1942) признают отцом-основателем не только современной антропологии (культурной, биологической), но и антропологической лингвистики. Начав с естественнонаучных штудий в ряде немецких университетов, он затем заинтересовался культурой и языками коренных народов Северной Америки. В особенности Боаса интересовала роль апперцепции в усвоении языка. В дальнейшем результаты наблюдений над восприятием языка будут перенесены им на широкое поле культуры, а действию апперцепции уподоблен процесс аккультурации — прививания каждому отдельному члену общества культурных норм и ценностей. Уже ранние публикации Боаса содержат истоки идеи языковой относительности, оформившейся впоследствии в т. н. «гипотезу лингвистической относительности Сепира — Уорфа». Чрезвычайно интересно и оригинально боасовское отношение к концепции фонемы, формирование которой падает именно на годы творческой активности и наиболее ярких достижений школы Боаса. Наконец, особенности стиля полевых исследований этого американского ученого, как и «аналитизм» в его работе над грамматиками индейских языков, безусловно повлияли на развитие дескриптивной лингвистики в целом.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Boas F.</kwd><kwd>ethnolinguistics</kwd><kwd>history of linguistics</kwd><kwd>linguistic relativity</kwd><kwd>linguistics in the USA</kwd><kwd>phonology</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Боас Ф.</kwd><kwd>история лингвистики</kwd><kwd>лингвистика в США</kwd><kwd>лингвистическая относительность</kwd><kwd>фонология</kwd><kwd>этнолингвистика</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Блумфилд 1968 — ​Блумфилд Л.
