설명
In this thought-provoking exploration, the author delves into the intricate relationship between language and socio-political structures, emphasizing the historical materialist perspective. By examining the nuances of linguistic theory through a Marxist lens, the work challenges conventional notions of language as a mere tool of communication, positioning it instead as a powerful site of ideological struggle.
The author aims to articulate the complex ways in which language is intertwined with power dynamics and social reality, inviting readers to reconsider how language shapes, and is shaped by, the material conditions of existence. Through rigorous analysis and insightful commentary, the book encourages a deeper understanding of how language functions within societal frameworks, ultimately offering a critical reflection on the implications of linguistic practices in the context of contemporary social issues.
