Language and Hegemony in Gramsci by Peter Ives
Language and Hegemony in Gramsci demonstrates how Gramsci's writings on language illuminate his entire social and political thought. Peter Ives explores Gramsci's concern with language from his university studies in linguistics to his last prison notebook. Hegemony has been seen as Gramsci's most important contribution, but without knowledge of its linguistic roots, it is often misunderstood. Ives uses Gramsci's focus on language to introduce his central ideas - such as hegemony, intellectuals, passive revolution, civil society and subalternity. By paying great attention to the linguistic underpinnings of Gramsci's Marxism, Language and Hegemony in Gramsci shows how his theorization of power, language and politics address issues raised by post-modernism and work of Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, Chantal Mouffe, and Ernesto Laclau. |
