Description and Table of Contents
Description
Calo Orbis examines a Chicano language variety from a historical, social, ideological, and theoretical framework. It gathers information, on how the urban Chicano often reduces his/her experience into thematic contents of family, home, employment, education, religion.This book takes the reader into a semiotic point of view in order to bring a deeper awareness of the symbolic activity between language style and the speaker's attitude toward the urban experience. The perspective maintained is epistemological in the broadest sense, in that the inquiry includes lexical, poetical, philosophical notions.
