Discourse definition

Discourse just means ‘ways of speaking, writing and representing’: i.e. our writing, talk, speeches, tweets, grafitti, cartoons, videos, internet memes, as well as the words and signs we use on our placards, and so on. The discourse of the Nazi Analogy constructs the contemporary Jew as a Zio-Nazi.31 As a 2006 inquiry by the United Kingdom’s All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) against Antisemitism put it, ‘a discourse has developed that is in effect antisemitic because it views Zionism itself as a global force of unlimited power and malevolence throughout history.’ When Zionism is redefined in this way, ‘traditional antisemitic notions . . . are transferred from Jews (a racial and religious group) on to Zionism (a political movement).’32

Discourse or there means ‘statement’. The extreme generality of ‘logos’ also lends plausibility to Plato’s identification of logos with thought.

Discourse refers to the type of cultural knowledge that is represented in master narratives and upon which people draw in their identity work. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx’x articulation of “the significance of processes of identification and disidentification with the discursive and social practices of femininity” in young women’s identity work is illuminating.75 Put more simply, female identity is formed through identification. Working with junior high students to script, act out, and film stories about the identity dilemmas girls face, Gonick discovered that the young women drew on hegemonic as well as alternative understandings of what it means to be a girl to construct their characters. To put it in the language I have been using, the young women built their stories from cultural master narratives, both identity-damaging and identity- supporting strands. As Gonick describes it, “This dynamic involves a double movement between a subject speaking/writing her way into existence by using the stories or discourses that are available and in the moment of doing so, also subjecting herself to the constitutive force and regulative norms of those discourses.” 76 Given the complexity of narrative female identity, it is impossible to study all aspects of it here. Thus I focus on the stories young women tell about their gendered identity and the cultural discourses upon which they draw as they work to situate themselves as young women in their various contexts. I am particularly curious about places where the young women experience slippage or a gap between their own self- understanding and cultural narratives about girlhood, as it is these gaps that counternarratives can exploit, and places where their religious identities and gender identities intersect.
