"I wore my English like a mask" : Språk, identitet och synlighet i Ocean Vuongs On Earth We're Briefly GorgeousÖman, Sofia January 2020 (has links)
This essay examines the relationship between language, identity, power and visibility in Ocean Vuong’s On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous (2019). This is achieved by applying post-colonial theories regarding double consciousness, and the construction of an Other. Theories put forward by Spivak and Fanon are also discussed in relation to this. By looking at how language is used, both by characters and author, we can see what an immense role language playes in the construction of identity and in the establishing of power.
