The Torn Language Between Identity And The Global In Amin Maalouf's In Murderous Identities: A Sociolinguistic Analysis
Authors : Belkaim Leila .
Abstract
Murderous Identities is a self-reflexive essay where the linguistic question is central. In this essay, the “translingual” writer Amin Maalouf offers a profound vision of what the language of identity and the global language is in the era of globalization. The question of language greatly determines the choice of a language in a multilingual context. This research provides us with data parameters and hypotheses to address in developing our understanding of sociolinguistic issues. In addition, the ideas developed by the author are new which spark inspiration and research on the subject. Between an identity language and a global language, there is a large gap which manifests itself in a space of progress compared to the past and a space of regression in human relations. In the end, two languages are not enough, you need a second language, freely loved, embraced and chosen.
