Abstract
Abstract Chapter 2 explores theoretical aspects related to the interface of cultural identity, discourse, gender, and myth. Cultural identities are those sides of our identities, which arise from our affiliation with a certain ethnic, racial, linguistic, religious, and national culture. The concept of cultural identity also includes our gender and sexual identities. For a certain individual and at certain times of one’s life, different aspects of cultural identity would be prevailing—whether political, gender, linguistic, racial, and so on. While the concept of a collective cultural identity would be difficult to define without falling into the trappings of untrue and biased generalizations, a close and critical look at specific texts or narratives of literary and cultural productions of performative genres such as drama, theatre, and film could provide valuable insights into these interesting and timely questions.
