He also asserts &#8220;double- voicedness&#8221; as the epitome of &#8220;Signifyin (g)&#8221;. This paper intends to apply the notions of &#8220;Double- voicedness&#8221; and &#8220;Signifyin (g)&#8221; on the manuscript of Les Blancs, written by Lorraine Hansberry, and highlights the anti-colonial aspects of the play.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="es"><p><![CDATA[Resumen: Henry Louis Gates ha tomado el término &#8220;significado&#8221; de Saussure y lo ha redefinido como un juego de palabras lingüístico que pospone la noción de significado y creencia en la &#8220;double-voicedness&#8221;, esto significa hablar tanto el idioma de la cultura dominante como en el del subalterno. Double-voicedness es, para Louis Gates, el epítome de Signifyin (g). Este artículo se propone aplicar las nociones de double-voicedness y Signifyin (g) en el manuscrito de Les Blancs, de Lorraine Hansberry, y destaca los aspectos anticoloniales de la obra.]]></p></abstract>
