Sažetak
In this paper, we discuss the conceptualization of space as a dimension relevant to identity and the central role that is attributed to language with respect to the constitution of identity. We thereby pursue a threefold goal: 1. to highlight the contribution of geographical research to our understanding of the self as a phenomenon situated in space ; 2. to discern merits, but also problems related to the recent strong emphasis of the role of language with respect to identity constitution, especially in constructivist and poststructuralist approaches ; and 3. on the basis of these findings, to draw conclusions concerning the function of language, space, and other dimensions of identity. In addition to a survey of relevant theoretical positions, a corpus study of media texts serves to exemplify the interdisciplinary approach proposed in the paper, with a special focus on geographically and linguistically marked identity.
