Performativity and Performance By Andrew Parker, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick
1995 | 125 Pages | ISBN: 0415910544 | PDF | 19 MB
From the age of Aristotle to the age of AIDS, writers, thinkers, performers and activists have wresteled with what "performance" is all about. At the same moment, "performativity"--a new concept in language theory--has become a ubiquitous term in literary studies. This volume grapples with the nature of these two key terms whose traces can be found everywhere: in the theatre, in the streets, in philosophy, in questions of race and gender, and in the sentences we speak.

Asma Iqbal, "Pakistani Englishes: Syntactic Variations"
English | ISBN: 0367734761 | 2020 | 114 pages | PDF | 1359 KB
This book explores how non-native speakers, especially in postcolonial states, use English to communicate. Focusing on Pakistan, the monograph analyzes word categories, phrase and sentence structures used in the region and compares them to British English. It draws extensively from language used in the media and uses Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG) parsers to develop the phrase structures for qualitative analysis and a manual approach to quantify the frequency of various types of phrases. The volume also highlights the possible reasons for the differences and locates language use in context.

Rosalind S. Chou, Joe R. Feagin, "Myth of the Model Minority: Asian Americans Facing Racism, Second Edition"
English | 2014 | ISBN :1612054781 | 274 pages | PDF | 1.62 MB
The second edition of this popular book adds important new research on how racial stereotyping is gendered and sexualized. New interviews show that Asian American men feel emasculated in America's male hierarchy. Women recount their experiences of being exoticized, subtly and otherwise, as sexual objects. The new data reveal how race, gender, and sexuality intersect in the lives of Asian Americans. The text retains all the features of the renowned first edition, which offered the first in-depth exploration of how Asian Americans experience and cope with everyday racism. The book depicts the "double consciousness" of many Asian Americans―experiencing racism but feeling the pressures to conform to popular images of their group as America's highly achieving "model minority."
