For English, these two concepts emphasize that a person's view of herself is above all dictated by the way in which she talks about herself. Focusing on ""performism,"" English discusses the presentational/representational and externalistic/internalistic facets of this concept and how they relate to the ideas of Senghor and Hurston. 606 $aLanguage and languages in literature 606 $aSpeech in literature 606 $aEthnology in literature 606 $aBlack people$xLanguages 615 0$aLanguage and languages in literature. 615 0$aSpeech in literature. 615 0$aEthnology in literature. 615 0$aBlack people$xLanguages. 676 $a841/.914 700 $aEnglish$b Parker$01570010 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786355903321 996 $aWhat we say, who we are$93843355 997 $aUNINA
