Specifically, this book pays attention to how forms of identities - ethnic, cultural, national and gender - are constructed through the use of language in select novels of Adichie, Atta and Betiang. Employing an interdisciplinary approach, this book draws analytical insights from critical discourse analysis, literary discourse analysis and socio-ethno-linguistic analysis. This approach enables the author to engage with the novels, to illuminate the link between the ways Nigerians use language and the identities they construct. Being a context-driven analysis, this book critically scrutinises literary language beyond stylistic borders by interrogating the micro and macro levels of language use, a core analytical paradigm frequently used by discourse analysts who engage in critical discourse analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Romanus Aboh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1920033297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781920033293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nisc (Pty) Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/28\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.36d","brand":"Romanus Aboh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453258936575,"sku":"9781920033293","price":40.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d26cf4ae-c449-4b51-a3bb-a2825ebaa00c.jpg?v=1777299149","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/language-and-the-construction-of-romanus-aboh-9781920033293","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
