«...analytical tools for answering such questions as: What were the relations between language, class and religion in a colonial hegemonic process in Bengal? How has language been used to construct Bengali national and communal identity? How has language been used to exclude and marginalize the subaltern groups?... In the second part of the study, by using the theoretical works of Gramsci and Bakhtin, I demonstrate, in four case studies, the ways in which language has been used to construct social and cultural identity in Bangladesh».
