[edit]hegemonically (comparative more hegemonically, superlative most hegemonically)
- In a hegemonic fashion.
- 2006, June E. Roberts, Reading Erna Brodber, page 58:
- Brodber uses the most commonly recognized tropes of Caribbean discourse—and, to borrow a term from Gates's Signifying Monkey, " tropes the tropes" of exile, self-hatred, self-alienation, and longing for the sought after prestige of privileged white Otherness, elevating elsewhereism, accepting as natural a hegemonically imposed sense of historylessness, split subjectivity, dependence and psychic fragmentation.
