Discuss the importance of language and popular tradition in the creation of national identity
Answers
Language played a very important role in the creation of national Identity. Grimm brothers, namely Jacob and Wilhelm Grim, born in Hanau, a German city, wrote ‘Fairy Tales’ which became popular among children and adults. They brought the folktales to the public through their creations in German language which encouraged the feelings of the people to achieve freedom of the press.
Answer:Language and the popular tradition is a key representation of a national identity. A person is known by these two features in a foreign land. Every nation has its own mode of communication, culture and traditions. And when a person go abroad then he represents his nation by these two characteristics. For example Chinese don't believe in learning new languages rather they are endeavoring to promote their own language. Often they take translators with them on visits to other countries. Then same is the case with tradition. Then in India they traditions are so fascinating that other countries imitate their traditions like Diwali etc.
