Articulating New Directions In Identity Construction From A Discourse Analysis Perspective
Authors : Gacem Mama . Gacem Ali Hadj .
Abstract
Abstract : Language is essential to every aspect of human existence. It is a reflection of people’s worldviews and identities. It is also a social identification medium used by communities to decipher themselves as a cohesive group of individuals with shared objectives and perspectives. This demonstrates how language serves as an identification avenue and a basic bedrock for action and interaction sine qua non. These language merits are saliently manifested in either spoken or written discourse. Accordingly, language and discourse play a crucial role in the formation and negotiation of identities in these and many other ways. It is also significant to note that, of the repertoire of identities, linguistic identity is the most obviously observable characteristic that is used to position and vibrate a variety of identifications. As such, the purpose of the present study is to investigate some of the discursive processes that are deemed essential and substantial to identity construction in discourse as indexicality, contextuality, positioning, and categorization, and to demystify some of the key identity voices as empirical and phenomenological voice . Therefore, identity from a discourse analytical perspective continues to be a vital realm to delineate the key constituent blocks which are constantly multiple and flexible.
