Reading the Linguistic landscape: Women, literacy and citizenship In One South African township

Magister Artium - MA / The purpose of this study was two-fold: firstly, to do a multimodal analysis of the
multilingual signage, advertisements and graffiti present on different surfaces in the
main business hub of a multicultural community called Wesbank, situated in the
Eastern Metropole of the city of Cape Town. Signage of this nature, taken together,
constitute the 'linguistic landscape' (Gorter, 2006) of a particular space.
