Harvey Sacks

Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera.

Harvey Sacks (1935 – novembre 1975) è stato un sociologo e linguista statunitense molto vicino alla tradizione etnometodologica.

È stato un pioniere negli studi sul modo in cui le persone usano il linguaggio nel mondo reale.

Nonostante la sua scomparsa prematura dovuta ad un incidente automoblistico, è stato il fondatore della disciplina dell'analisi della conversazione. Ha inoltre avuto una forte influenza su molte discipline, dalla linguistica alla psicologia.
