What is Identity ?
• It is derived from medieval Latin, identitas, which means “sameness.”

3.1 Identity Studies : Issues & Approaches
Other Issues Concerning Identity
The problem of identity is still debatable. The debate is as hot as it was in the times of previous philosophers like Aristotle, Aquinas etc (Riley, 2007, p. 70).
3.2 Social Identities: You Are What You Know
• We have learned the concept of identity which is still abstract, and applicable to other entities like stone, wood, etc.
• However, if we apply the concept to human, we have to remember that homo homini socius.
• “Socially speaking, though, ‘identity’ is a quality which is ascribed or attributed to an individual being by other human beings.” (Riley, 2007, p. 86)
3.2 Social Identities: You Are What You Know
• “We do need other people to tell us who we are...” (ibid).

3.2 Social Identities: You Are What You Know
How do other people tell us who we are?
How do other people attribute identities to us?
3.2 Social Identities: You Are What You Know
The answer:
“you are what you know: ‘identity’ is made of knowledge, and language is both what we know
and how we know it” (Riley, 2007, p. 91).

3.3 Communicative Practices, Roles & ActsCommunicative Practices
“The study of linguistic forms of coordination has shown that they are subject to cultural variation or, if you prefer, that they are part of culture. We call such culture-specific forms of language use ‘communicative practices.’ “(Riley, 2007, p. 93).
