Download or read book Construction d identit et processus d identification written by Sylvester N. Osu and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme identité s'inscrit dans un réseau lexical complexe et connaît une telle diversité d'emplois qu'il est difficile de le cerner. Il présente par ailleurs des sens techniques différents selon les disciplines, et la recherche de ce concept dans les dictionnaires des Sciences du langage s'avère peu satisfaisante. Le présent ouvrage, issu du colloque « Construction d'identité et processus d'identification » (organisé à l'Université François Rabelais, Tours en novembre 2007) reprend une partie revue et corrigée après relecture anonyme des communications orales de ce colloque. Il tient sa singularité de ce que l'identité y est considérée non comme catégorie de langue ou de discours ou encore comme indice d'une appartenance socioculturelle mais plutôt comme un construit et l'identification comme une construction à part entière. La question se pose alors de savoir de quoi est construite l'identité et comment ? Les contributeurs à ce volume, sous des angles différents, tentent de répondre à ces questions, en analysant les différents processus langagiers qui concourent à sa construction.
Download or read book La construction de l identit par le langage written by Marcienne Martin and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Notre appartenance au monde du vivant en tant qu’Homo sapiens s’inscrit dans l’observation des objets du monde participant de notre environnement et est à l’origine de l’expérience du miroir chez les grands primates. Chez l’être humain, cette procédure, en corrélation avec le langage articulé, est à l’origine de la construction identitaire, construction qui réfère à l’identité anthropomorphique et à son évolution en synchronie et en diachronie. L’identité peut, également, prendre sa source d’un secteur professionnel spécifique ou de la structure groupale. Nombre d’exemples permettront au lecteur de mieux comprendre cette approche particulière de la mise en relation entre langage et identité.

Download or read book La construction discursive de l identit en contexte migratoire written by Caroline Gagné (Réviseure linguistique) and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans ce mémoire, nous nous intéressons à la construction identitaire en contexte migratoire, et ce, en analysant des discours formulés par dix "enfants de la Loi 101". Ces discours proviennent de trois documents : l'émission de radio Indicatif présent : Les enfants de la Loi 101 (2003) et les documentaires Les enfants de la Loi 101 (2007) et La Génération 101 (2008). Pour notre étude, nous partons d'un postulat selon lequel l'identité s'élabore essentiellement en discours et en interaction, et nous soutenons que l'argumentation joue un rôle prépondérant dans cette construction. Nous nous inscrivons dans une approche interactionniste de l'analyse du discours et nous nous inspirons de la rhétorique, des théories de l'argumentation et de l'approche modulaire afin d'étudier différentes constructions argumentatives à partir desquelles les informateurs présentent leurs rapports à la langue ainsi que leurs rapports à leur société d'origine et à leur société d'adoption. Les rapports à la langue sont envisagés à partir de l'analyse des structures concessives et des "échelles énonciatives", tandis que les rapports à la société d'origine et à la société d'adoption sont étudiés à partir des constructions définitoires à identité unique et à identités imbriquées et de la hiérarchisation de ces constructions.
Download or read book Reconstructions of Canadian Identity written by Vander Tavares and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2024-04-19 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Re-envisioning multiculturalism in Canada In 1971, Canada became the first nation in the world to officially declare its bilingual and multicultural policies. Reconstructions of Canadian Identity examines what has changed over the past fifty years, highlighting the lived experiences of marginalized Canadians and offering insights into the critical work that lies ahead. Editors Vander Tavares and Maria João Maciel Jorge bring together a wide range of disciplines and perspectives to investigate inclusion and exclusion within the processes, discourses, and practices that forge and frame Canadian identity. Chapters analyze ways current multicultural policies continue to benefit the dominant groups and (further) harm minoritized ones. Exposing the pitfalls of established notions of Canadian identity, this volume moves traditionally othered identities—immigrant, racialized, hybridized, Indigenous, and women—to the forefront. In doing so, it reveals how these identities negotiate and claim legitimacy, arguing for a reconceptualization from the margins that truly fosters diversity and inclusion. Illustrating both the shortcomings of and possibilities for a more inclusive multiculturalism in Canada, Reconstructions of Canadian Identity invites readers to reflect on what it means to be Canadian in the twenty-first century.
Download or read book Re exploring Canadian Space written by Jeanette M. L. den Toonder and published by Barkhuis. This book was released on 2012 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of productions and representations of Canadian identities are the central theme that runs through this book. The different contributions explore imagined spaces by considering Canadian music, poetry and novels; they engage with political space by addressing various ways in which the people of Canada have made claims to different regions in the distant and recent past; and they address lived spaces, and their actual and symbolic meanings. It is an unusual book as it encompasses the writings by those studying the arts and literature as well as writings by social scientists, and it includes both English and French-speaking scholars. The richness that can be found in this multitude of perspectives and approaches to exploring Canadian space is characteristic of the way in which Canadian Studies is practiced nowadays. It is therefore an appropriate volume to celebrate 20 years of Canadian Studies in the Netherlands.
Download or read book The French Language and Questions of Identity written by Wendy Ayres-Bennett and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2007 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our choice of linguistic code is one of the most fundamental ways open to us of establishing our membership of some groups and our distance from others. This symbolic value of language may often leave it open to exploitation, especially by the state. The present volume demonstrates how the multi-faceted nature of the concept of identity makes its relationship with language both complex and unpredictable. Because of its particular historical and social characteristics, the French language provides especially fertile territory for the exploration of this theme. Four main axes stand out in the French context: 'institutionalised' identity, regional identity, social identity and competing identities. These themes are explored from different perspectives by leading experts from Britain, Europe and North America: Roger Baines, Kate Beeching, Danielle Bouverot, David Cowling, Edith Esch, François Gadet, Penelope Gardner-Chloros, David Hornsby, John E. Joseph, Dominique Lagorgette, Jacques Landrecies, Dawn Marley, Nicolas Pepin, Tim Pooley, Gilles Siouffi, Albert Valdman, Barbara von Gemmingen and Chantal Wionet.
Download or read book Musical Instruments in the 21st Century written by Till Bovermann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By exploring the many different types and forms of contemporary musical instruments, this book contributes to a better understanding of the conditions of instrumentality in the 21st century. Providing insights from science, humanities and the arts, authors from a wide range of disciplines discuss the following questions: · What are the conditions under which an object is recognized as a musical instrument? · What are the actions and procedures typically associated with musical instruments? · What kind of (mental and physical) knowledge do we access in order to recognize or use something as a musical instrument? · How is this knowledge being shaped by cultural conventions and temporal conditions? · How do algorithmic processes 'change the game' of musical performance, and as a result, how do they affect notions of instrumentality? · How do we address the question of instrumental identity within an instrument's design process? · What properties can be used to differentiate successful and unsuccessful instruments? Do these properties also contribute to the instrumentality of an object in general? What does success mean within an artistic, commercial, technological, or scientific context?
Download or read book Social Lives in Language sociolinguistics and Multilingual Speech Communities written by Gillian Sankoff and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a synthetic approach to language variation and language ideologies in multilingual communities. Although the vast majority of the world s speech communities are multilingual, much of sociolinguistics ignores this internal diversity. This volume fills this gap, investigating social and linguistic dimensions of variation and change in multilingual communities. Drawing on research in a wide range of countries (Canada, USA, South Africa, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu), it explores: connections between the fields of creolistics, language/dialect contact, and language acquisition; how the study of variation and change, particularly in cases of additive bilingualism, is central to understanding social and linguistic issues in multilingual communities; how changing language ideologies and changing demographics influence language choice and/or language policy, and the pivotal place of multilingualism in enacting social power and authority, and a rich array of new empirical findings on the dynamics of multilingual speech communities.
Download or read book Desired Language written by Francesc Feliu and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2023-01-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National linguistic ideology has been at the base of most historical processes that –whether they are complete or not – have brought us to the current reality: a world of languages that represent, with greater or lesser exactitude, the diversity – and convergences – of human groups. Various of today’s thinkers have predicted the decline or even the end of national ideologies. In the area of language, postmodernism would make the linguistic affiliation of the community individuals irrelevant, de-ideologise language use, and extend plurilingualism and language alternation in association with a new distribution of (physical or functional) spaces of linguistic practice. But is this true everywhere? Are languages now nowhere the core of collective identity? Or are we witnessing a distinction between languages that, because of their magnitude, status, strategic position, etc., can continue to exercise the function of national languages and languages that have to renounce this function? Has national linguistic ideology really ceased to make sense? What other strategies should the historic language of a given geographic area employ if it wants to continue forming part of the life of the community that is set up there? What kinds of languages are desired by politicians, intellectuals and philologists? This book aims to bring some thoughts about these questions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The (dis)empowerment of languages through language policy in multilingual postcolonial communities often shapes speakers identification with these languages, their attitude towards other languages in the community, and their choices in interpersonal and intergroup communication. Focusing on the dynamics of Cameroon s multilingualism, this book contributes to current debates on the impact of politic language policy on daily language use in sociocultural and interpersonal interactions, multiple identity construction, indigenous language teaching and empowerment, the use of Cameroon Pidgin English in certain formal institutional domains initially dominated by the official languages, and linguistic patterns of social interaction for politeness, respect, and in-group bonding. Due to the multiple perspectives adopted, the book will be of interest to sociolinguists, applied linguists, pragmaticians, Afrikanists, and scholars of postcolonial linguistics."
