Language and Subjectivity
Author: Tim McNamara
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108684424
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Understanding the role of language within the formation of a sense of self has been revolutionised by developments in social theory, particularly poststructuralism. There is now a new emphasis on the way in which subjects are vulnerable in the face of powerful discourses such as nation, gender, race and sexuality. This book is a clear and engaging introduction to these developments and their relevance to students of language. Using lively and often personal examples throughout, Tim McNamara explores the role of language within processes of subjectivity using the insights of conversation analysis (CA), creating an original conceptual and methodological bridge between the macro- and micro-dimensions of social discourse and everyday conversational interaction.

Drums of Sunrise
Author: Sixtus Chetachi Igbokwe
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1504948645
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 63
Book Description
This book is a product of articulate and reflective exploration of facts about a typical pre-Christian Igbo community, Umuabali, characterized by some heinous practices, such as the worship of many deities and the Osu caste system. Through the advent of Christianity, there was a transition from Umuabali (children of darkness) to Umuihe (children of light). I praise the reflective and imaginative prowess of the author in this epic. I therefore recommend this masterpiece to all who wish to understand how Christianity can bring light to our darkened world by beating the Drums of Sunrise. Rev. Fr. Paschal Chiekezi Sixtus Chetachi Igbokwe has in this novel, Drums of Sunrise, disclosed his intellectual identity, personality, capacity, potentiality, and prowess in creative writing. The novel teaches love, hard work, dedication, perseverance, humility, patience and discourages pride, egotism, vainglory, and deceit. I recommend that this book be made compulsory for all students. I also recommend it to the public. It is a must-read for every home. I congratulate Sixtus Chetachi Igbokwe for the job well done. Dr. (Mrs.) Nma Olebara (FCAI) Drums of Sunrise is a captivating story set in Southeastern Nigeria during the pre-Colonial era of the 1890s. Sixtus Chetachi Igbokwe has, in his debut, presented us with an insight into the African-Igbo society, a people who share their life from their culture and later embraced Christianity by the coming of the white men. This moment became a turning point in their life. I praise the authors creativity and therefore recommend this book to the general public. Chief (Mrs.) Theresa Okonkwo

Languages : en
Pages : 533
Book Description
The year is 1466 AD. The Highlands of Scotland are beautiful, raw, and unforgiving. The hard day of travel was one of many. The entire country seemed to be on edge, with no one about and small battles raging nearby. I had been compelled to keep moving. Although I was only sixteen years of age, I had been on my own, traveling through the country for three years. I had found that people often turn on you and try to exploit you for their gain, especially if you have certain “talents.” Yes, I have talents, ones that I have worked hard to master and to keep hidden. There had been too many experiences of so called friends selling me out or turning me in to the authorities for some small amount of coin. Mankind naturally fears what they do not understand.
