Citation
Description The biculturality and linguistic otherness can be approached through identity patterns, historically conditioned configurations of axiological paradigms. The identity question is emphasized especially in minority cultures and becomes part of the social discourse. When projecting identity patterns into a literary text, interferences occur, which are part of the aesthetic intentionality. The article discusses three points. In the beginning it concentrates on methodological circumstances between identity and the identity pattern. Follows a presentation of identity patterns, which have come into existence in French-Canadian literature. The interference of identity patterns with the cultural and linguistic interface is clarified in an analysis of the novel Ashini by the Quebec author Yves Thériault. Its specificity consists in portraying a minor First Nation topic in a literary discourse, which considered itself as a minority one.
