Ilic, Marija: Discourse and Ethnic Identity

The Case of the Serbs from Hungary. Translated by Edward Alexander. This book explores some of the complex relations between oral discourse and ethnicity by using the example of the Serbian minority in Hungary. The power and powerlessness of discourse in negotiating identity are examined through a case study of a small Serbian community near Budapest. The study is of interest to those who are concerned with theoretical issues related to discourse and ethnicity, as well as to scholars of national minorities and minority languages in Eastern and Central Europe. 344 Seiten mit einigen Farb- und s/w-Abb. und Tabellen, gebunden (Studies on Language and Culture in Central and Eastern Europe; Band 23/Verlag Otto Sagner 2014)
