This book examines language and identity in modern Egypt using
theories from discourse analysis and sociolinguistics. How is
language used in Egyptian public discourse to illuminate the
collective identity of Egyptians? How does this identity relate to
language form and content? These questions are explored in this
book, using a broad selection of data, including newspaper
articles, caricatures, blogs, patriotic songs, films, school
textbooks, TV talk shows, poetry and novels. As well as furthering
our understanding of the relationship between identity and language
in general, Language and Identity in Modern Egypt also yields
insights about the intricate ways in which media and public
discourse help shape and outline identity through linguistic
processes. Offers an in depth study of identity in modern Egyptian
public discourse; focuses on nationalist discourse before, during
and after the Egyptian revolution of 2011; based on a broad and
representative selection of data and helps us to decode and
understand the messages put forward by the competing factions in
Egyptian politics.
