Chapter: Identifying with icons

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.27380

Blurb:

This chapter relates the discursive iconography to identity theory (Hall 1997) and studies in sociology (Maton 2008; Martin, Maton and Matruglio 2010), to discuss how the linguistic resources affect social organization and shape readers' subjectivity, as well as how the current framework can benefit further work in these two fields.
