Title: Postcolonial Linguistic Voices : Identity Choices and Representations
Description: This volume investigates sociolinguistic discourses, identity choices and their representations in postcolonial national and social life, and traces them to the impact of colonial contact. The chapters stitch together current voices and identities emerging within both ex-colonized and ex-colonizer communities as each copes with the social, lingual, cultural, and religious mixes triggered by colonialism. These mixes, reflected in the five thematic parts of the book -'postcolonial identities','nationhood discourses','translating the postcolonial','living the postcolonial', and'colonizing the colonizer'- call for deeper investigations of postcolonial communities using emic approaches.
