For English, these two concepts emphasize that a persons view of herself is above all dictated by the way in which she talks about herself. Focusing on what he identifies as "performism," English discusses the presentational/representational and externalistic/internalistic facets of "performism" as they relate to the ideas of Senghor and Hurston. English ends his work by closely examining Hurstons Their Eyes Were Watching God in light of his discussion of "performism," and draws new, intriguing conclusions about the extent to which Hurstons main character exemplifies W.E.B. DuBoiss concept of double-consciousness. What We Say, Who We Are will certainly pique the interest of scholars interested in Africana studies, African-American literature, and the philosophy of language....3179090What We Say, Who We Are16981887https://www.gandhi.com.mx/what-we-say-who-we-are-9781461634683/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2338773/34c978a4-8db8-4a6c-9302-b1a77248b175.jpg?v=638383840392600000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20099781461634683_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_In What We Say, Who We Are: Leopold Senghor, Zora Neale Hurston, and the Philosophy of Language, Parker English explores the commonality between Leopold Senghors concept of negritude and Zora Neale Hurstons view of Negro expression.
