  • Expansion of International Broadcasting
    Working Paper Expansion of International Broadcasting The Growing Global Reach of China Central Television Si Si July 2014 The global expansion of satellite capacity and the widespread use of the Internet for content distribution are creating a significant change in the ecology of global news, leading to widespread proliferation of news channels available in different regions and across the globe. These have broken down domestic monopolies on television news provision in many countries and made alternative sources of news available to large numbers of people. This is spreading voices and perspectives— including those with sometimes unwelcome views—to places they were not previously heard. These developments differ from the traditions of international broadcasting that emanated from colonial and then later continued from post-colonial powers (Potter, 2012; Gillespie and Webb, 2013) and those related to international conflicts in the mid-twentieth century that spawned cross-border and global radio broadcasting with official views, propaganda, factual and cultural programming as a norm (Wasburn, 1992; Schwoch, 2008; Cull, 2009; Johnson and Parta, 2010). During the second half of the twentieth century, smaller nations began providing some international radio services so their voices could complement those of the large services of major powers such as the China, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States. As capabilities to distribute television worldwide became available they were first exploited by Western states, especially the United Kingdom and the United States though the BBC World Service (a state funded service) and CNN (a commercially funded service). This, added to the global dominance of Western news agencies, lead many at the time to criticize hegemonic global news provision based on Western values, interests, and perspectives (Tunstall, 1979; MacBride, 1980).

  • 42 Wade–Giles Romanization System
    42 Wade–Giles ROMANIZATION SYSTEM Karen Steffen Chung N ATIONAL TAIWAN UNIVERSITY The Wade–Giles Romanization system for standard Mandarin Chinese held a distinguished place of honor in Sinology and popular usage from the late nineteenth century until the 1970s, when it began losing ground to Hanyu Pinyin. But that is not to say that the Wade– Giles system was not, and is not still, without its problems, and consequently, its sometimes highly vocal detractors. Historical absence of a phonetic alphabet, fanqie and tone marking It is surprising that the Chinese did not develop their own phonetic alphabet before the arrival of Western missionaries in China starting in the sixteenth century. The closest they came was the use of the fǎnqiè system, under which two relatively well-known characters, plus the word fǎn 反 or later mostly qiè 切, were given after a lexical item. The reader needed to take the initial of the first and splice it onto the final rhyme and tone of the second, to derive the pronunciation of the item being looked up. A typical entry is dōng déhóng qiè 東 德紅切, i.e. dé plus hóng in the qiè 切 system make dōng. (The second tone had not yet separated from the first at this time, thus the difference in tones.) One big advantage of the system is that the fǎnqiè characters were already familiar to any literate Chinese, so there was no need to learn a new set of symbols. The disadvantage is that there is no way to know with certainty the actual phonetic realizations of the syllables at the time .

    University of Alberta A Dyadic Autoethnography of a Learner of English via Chinese by Flobert Rui Feng A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Secondary Education © Flobert Rui Feng Spring 2014 Edmonton, Alberta DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my daughter and son, Justina and Justin, as in their future, their children (and children and grandchildren of others) may have a more efficient way of learning and using one or more additional languages. ABSTRACT The plethora of research on ESL, L1, L2 and ethnography has left under- reported autoethnographies borrowing mathematics as a tool for thinking. In response to the multiplicity, this dissertation explores personal and academic experiences to expose my own development of an L2 learner, in transcultural, translingual, and transnational identity formation and construction, via the learning and teaching of a second language. The methodology I have chosen to use is autoethnography, a relatively new momentum-gaining research tool that combines characteristics of ethnography and autobiography in the latter part of the twentieth century. It is very useful in writing about the dialectical personal and professional creative experiences of fixity and fluidity because, in autoethnographic writing, the observer and observed, the researcher and the researched, the emic and the etic, or the insider and the outsider, are the same.

  • A History of Reading in Late Imperial China, 1000-1800
    A HISTORY OF READING IN LATE IMPERIAL CHINA, 1000-1800 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Li Yu, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Galal Walker, advisor Professor Mark Bender Professor Cynthia J. Brokaw ______________________________ Professor Patricia A. Sieber Advisor East Asian Languages and Literatures ABSTRACT This dissertation is a historical ethnographic study on the act of reading in late imperial China. Focusing on the practice and representation of reading, I present a mosaic of how reading was conceptualized, perceived, conducted, and transmitted from the tenth to the eighteenth centuries. My central argument is that reading, or dushu, was an indispensable component in the tapestry of cultural life and occupied a unique position in the landscape of social history in late imperial China. Reading is not merely a psychological act of individuals, but also a set of complicated social practices determined and conditioned by social conventions. The dissertation consists of six chapters. Chapter 1 discusses motivation, scope, methodology, and sources of the study. I introduce a dozen different Chinese terms related to the act of reading. Chapter 2 examines theories and practices of how children were taught to read. Focusing on four main pedagogical procedures, namely memorization, vocalization, punctuation, and explication, I argue that the loud chanting of texts and the constant anxiety of reciting were two of the most prominent themes that ran through both the descriptive and prescriptive discourses on the history of reading in late imperial ii China.
