Language and Discourse – (iii) Space and the Global City

[We]... find ourselves employing a language that is always shadowed by loss, an elsewhere, a ghost: the unconscious, an 'other' text, an 'other' voice, an 'other' world; a language that is 'powerfully affected by the foreign tongue.' (Iain Chambers, migrancy, culture, identity, 1994, pp 2–4.)
