Sherzer's (1982) examination of the poetic line demonstrated that a focus on the poetic line provides new insights into the complexity of the structure of discourse across a wide range of genres. Here, I extend Sherzer's approach by considering how representations of poetic line structure reflect analysts’ relationship with speakers of the languages involved. Looking at representations of the poetic line across different editions of the K'iche’ Maya text, the Popol Wuj, suggests that scholarly attention to the poetic line has increased as scholars have come to recognize the importance of indigenous perspectives in linguistic anthropology.

诗句，波普尔·武吉与人类学历史

Sherzer（1982）对诗歌线的考察表明，对诗歌线的关注为广泛类型的话语结构的复杂性提供了新的见解。在这里，我通过考虑诗线结构的表述如何反映分析者与所涉及语言的表达者之间的关系，来扩展谢尔泽的方法。通过查看不同版本的K'iche'Maya文本的诗意线的表示，Popol Wuj表示，随着学者逐渐认识到土著人类观点在语言人类学中的重要性，学者对诗意线的关注日益增加。
