Based on my understanding from the Reading 2.2 which is ‘Language, Perspective & Ideology’, I can say that the language that we used to describe something will affect the readers where they will make their own perspective towards that statement. I t means perspective is mediated through textual structures and textual processes and those who control the production of text control is the operation of ideology. Language is a human speech, perspective can be described as someone’s thoughts and ideology is a set of beliefs and principles. So, I conclude that everyone have different perspective and ideology based on one’s understanding on language development in any statement that had been written.
In the topic of ‘Text and Textualities’, I can explain that text is a combination of signs that have various meaning for different group of people. What is sign? Signs can be described as a result of its contrast to other meaning. Texts are socially constructed to have certain meaning where it combines both pictures and carries many meaning. It also influences understanding of the reading on the text. As a conclusion, I can say that, readers can choose to believe or not to believe of what they have read.
