Oxford May 2019 Approved by Advisor: Professor Henrietta Yang Reader: Professor Tamara Warhol Reader: Professor Donald Dyer ©2019 Brendan Farrell Ryan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Henrietta Yang, for her assistance in this year-long journey. Her guidance throughout this project has been invaluable. I would also like to thank the other members of my committee, Dr. Tamara Warhol and Dr. Donald Dyer, for their assistance in the process. Next, I would like to thank every Chinese language teacher I have had, both here at the University of Mississippi and abroad. Without their dedication to their craft, I would not have been able to conduct research in Chinese.
