Creation of ideology through the language of cinema: a feminist discourse study of media education

摘要

This paper is an effort to deconstruct the language in the discourse of cinema to examine how media generates a concept and presents it in a manner that the ideology underlying the concept sounds natural; rather a cultural construct. With the linguistic and analyses of a selection of excerpts from the movie ‘ Astitva ’ (i.e. Identity), I try to show that creation of ideologies and distribution of power is done through language. This paper decodes and deconstructs the linguistic content in the discourse of cinema to draw attention to highlight the issues related to women in cinematic representations and their identity.
