  • Analysis As Assemblage: Making Sense of Polysemous Texts
    Analysis as assemblage: Making sense of polysemous texts Accomplishing critical literacy within a mediascape where texts present as polysemous and ambiguous, may be the challenge of our times. This paper uses the example of a seemingly paradoxical newspaper column that contains paratextual elements, to illustrate how an assemblage of critical analytical approaches is needed to make fuller sense. The column is read in three ways, focusing first on the main column, its location, imagined audience, its use of rhetorical devices such as satire, irony, humour and repetition to critique the state of global football. The second reading uses a postcolonial feminist perspective to focus exclusively on the curious supplementary tailpieces (shirttails) that end the column. It reveals how specific translation strategies and the representation of certain bodies as sexually voracious, deviant and excessive, frame them as absurd exotic-erotic objects of a neo-colonial gaze. The third reading leans on Derridean ideas of writing and text to understand the seemingly discrepant relationship between column and shirttails, to raise critical questions about the role of the reader/readership itself. Each analysis brings different sensibilities to the work and illustrates the value of assesmbling multiple analytical approaches to work towards critical media literacy. The conditions and caveats of such working arrangements are also considered. Keywords: polysemy, paratext, critical literacy; postcolonial feminist analysis; Derridean analysis; assemblage/working arrangement Contemporary media texts pose a challenge when they present as ambiguous and enigmatic, offering strangely disjointed, multiple, even contradictory meanings. If we take seriously the task of critical literacy as entailing a process of reading words and worlds through ‘processes of naming and renaming the world, seeing its patterns, designs and complexities (Mey, 1986), and developing the capacity to rewrite, redesign, and reshape it in communities’ interests (New London Group, 1996)’ (Luke & Woods, 2009, p.
