Annotation
This essay has a three-fold task: (i) to offer a theoretical reassessment of the notion of culture as it is deployed in various traditions, in particular within social/cultural anthropology and cultural studies; (ii) to problematize the methods used in doing cultural analysis; and finally, (iii) to relate the above theoretical and analytical discussions to the debate on the language-culture interface and the pragmatic analyses of cross-cultural and intercultural discourse.
