What is an ‘identity,’ and what does it mean to have one? How is an identity expressed through language use? With a spotlight on cultural, gender, and national identities, this lecture series (https://www.tc.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/5005/) explores a wide range of approaches to the intersections of language and identity.
In the concluding meeting of the Language and Identity series, members of Tokyo College discuss past and present issues, as well as the future outlook, of language and identity research in Japan. Previous events in this series will be available on the Tokyo College YouTube Channel on the dates slated for each event in the program.
