230155 Language and Identity (S) (SoSe 2016)
Contents, comment
-
This course explores how language as social practice constructs individual and collective identities and the significance of identity and identification in educational contexts. The theoretical framework is cross-disciplinary. Readings are taken from linguistics, anthropology, sociology, critical discourse theory, feminist and post-structuralist theory, and educational theory. Topics covered include: language, identity and subjectivity; language as embodied practice, identification and desire; multiculturalism and the politics of recognition; language learning as mediated action and as the social symbolic construction of self; writing and textual identity, authorship and voice; autobiographical narrative; pedagogy and symbolic control; virtual identities.
