Study task 3
Binary opposition - an idea that is a part of a major
twentieth century theory of meaning called Structuralism - is an aspect of
psycholinguistics, but offers us a very straightforward yet very subtle means
of working out how we create meaning from language. More interestingly, it also
can point to why and how those within a particular group, society or culture
share important values, and how these can easily be reinforced by language use,
often sub-consciously and thus unknowingly, even unwittingly.
The zone of anomaly is
often used in texts in which myths and stories come into play, in a debate,
which throws them in the middle but lets viewers assign them, closer to a side.
(as seen in the diagram below ive put one word in the zone of anomaly where I express
my thoughts on it.)
