Racism in the English Language

Moore Language and Culture An integral part of any culture is its language. Language not only develops in conjunction with a society's historical, economic and political evolution; it also reflects that society's attitudes and thinking. Before beginning our analysis of racism in language we would like to quote part of a TV film review which shows the connection between language and culture .2 Depending on one's culture, one interacts with time in a very distinct fashion. A Short Play on "Black" and "White" Words.

Towards a Model of Intersemiotic Translation

As we know, a translation is not committed only to ‘semantics’ (Campos,1972), to which ‘meaningful dimensions’ of semiotic processes are usually attributed. Itseems theoretically natural to describe an interlinguistic translation by establishing directcorrelations between comparable semiotic layers of organization – morphological-morpho-logical,phonetic-phonetic,rhythmic-rhythmic(seeJakobson&Pomorska,1985).However,an intersemiotic translation does not exhibit the same principle of corresponding layers (seePlaza, 1987).Here we propose an approach based on Charles S. Peirce’s model of sign process, to provide a preliminary conceptual framework to the phenomena emphasizing hierarchical properties and aspects.

Contradiction and Overdetermination

In an article devoted to the Young Marx, I have already stressed the ambiguity of the idea of ‘inverting Hegel’. It seemed to me that strictly speaking this expression suited Feuerbach perfectly; the latter did, indeed, ‘turn speculative philosophy back on to its feet’, but the only result was to arrive with implacable logic at an idealist anthropology. But the expression cannot be applied to Marx, at least not to the Marx who had grown out of this ‘anthropological’ phase. I could go further, and suggest that in the well-known passage: ‘With (Hegel, the dialectic) is standing on its head. How should we really understand its use in this quotation?

Let us look a little closer. Lenin gave this metaphor above all a practical meaning. Marxism and Humanism. Louis Althusser 1964. Louis Althusser 1964 Part Seven.

Marxism and Humanism. Louis Althusser 1964

Marxism and Humanism ‘Marxism and Humanism’ first appeared in the Cahiers de l’I.S.E.A., June 1964. Today, Socialist ‘Humanism’ is on the agenda. As it enters the period which will lead it from socialism (to each according to his labour) to communism (to each according to his needs), the Soviet Union has proclaimed the slogan: All for Man, and introduced new themes: the freedom of the individual, respect for legality, the dignity of the person.

This is a historical event. In fact, the objective of the revolutionary struggle has always been the end of exploitation and hence the liberation of man, but, as Marx foresaw, in its first historical phase, this struggle had to take the form of the struggle between classes. The end of the dictatorship of the proletariat in the U.S.S.R. opens up a second historical phase. Philosophy as a Revolutionary Weapon by Louis Althusser 1968.
