AND THE DISCOURSE OF MARGINALITY

Margin(s) of society, marginalization as a social process, or global marginalization (brought about by European colonization, or/and as well as by localized hegemonic systems), exclusion-inclusion, centre-periphery, marginal experience, new ‘Othering’, have increasingly gained importance in cultural studies and discourse analyses. Within such a frame, the discourse about marginality (involving new topographies) and of marginality (referring to textual and discursive constructs and meanings, dominant readings, new ways of thinking about the social relations, such as feminism, for example) needs to be reconsidered.
The articles in this volume seek to explore the definition of margins and marginalization, as well as the assumptions about the center/margin power structure, since analyzing the phenomenon of marginalization is not only a survey of a unit of society (the margin) but also an examination of the relationship between textual representation and claims to power.
The volume contains three sections, which offer a multitude of interpretations of the topic of margins, marginalization and the discourse of marginality. The first section of the volume includes articles approaching the topic from the perspective of literature and cultural studies. The articles in the second section of the volume deal with the topic of margins, marginalization and the discourse of marginality as evident in linguistics and cultural studies. The articles in the third section of the volume deal with margins, marginalization and the discourse of marginality in translation studies.
