- Title
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: The Construction of Othering in Edward Bliss Emerson's Caribbean Journal of 1831-1832.
- Authors
Simounet, Alma
- Abstract
This paper examines the vocabulary, grammar structures and rhetorical devices that appear in Edward Emerson's journal based on his trip to the Caribbean. The end-in-view is to identify the devices that Emerson utilized, mostly unconsciously, in his depiction and construction of others; in the case of this journal, of the peoples he encountered in the Caribbean. The methodological approach of critical discourse analysis guides this examination.
