This volume is a collection of empirical studies investigating the
ways and means through which culturally-shaped identities are
manifested in and through discourse in documents and texts from
multiple spheres of social action. It also looks at possible ways
in which understanding and acceptance of diverse cultural
identities can be moulded and developed through appropriate
education. Language being one of the most evident and powerful
'markers' of cultural identity, discourse and text are sites where
cultures are both constructed and displayed and where identities
are negotiated. The approaches to the analysis of culture and
identity adopted here to account for the multifaceted realisations
of cultural identities in the texts and documents taken into
consideration span from multimodality, to discourse and genre
analysis, to corpus linguistics and text analysis. The volume then
offers a varied picture of approaches to the scientific enquiry
into the multifaceted manifestations of identity in and across
national, professional, and disciplinary cultures.
