China in 50 Dishes

Dissertation JIAN 2016 Final
The Impact of Global English in Xinjiang, China: Linguistic Capital and Identity Negotiation among the Ethnic Minority and Han Chinese Students Ge Jian A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Laada Bilaniuk, Chair Ann Anagnost, Chair Stevan Harrell Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology © Copyright 2016 Ge Jian University of Washington Abstract The Impact of Global English in Xinjiang, China: Linguistic Capital and Identity Negotiation among the Ethnic Minority and Han Chinese Students Ge Jian Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Laada Bilaniuk Professor Ann Anagnost Department of Anthropology My dissertation is an ethnographic study of the language politics and practices of college- age English language learners in Xinjiang at the historical juncture of China’s capitalist development. In Xinjiang the international lingua franca English, the national official language Mandarin Chinese, and major Turkic languages such as Uyghur and Kazakh interact and compete for linguistic prestige in different social scenarios. The power relations between the Turkic languages, including the Uyghur language, and Mandarin Chinese is one in which minority languages are surrounded by a dominant state language supported through various institutions such as school and mass media. The much greater symbolic capital that the “legitimate language” Mandarin Chinese carries enables its native speakers to have easier access than the native Turkic speakers to jobs in the labor market. Therefore, many Uyghur parents face the dilemma of choosing between maintaining their cultural and linguistic identity and making their children more socioeconomically mobile. The entry of the global language English and the recent capitalist development in China has led to English education becoming market-oriented and commodified, which has further complicated the linguistic picture in Xinjiang. -

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Uncertain Satire in Modern Chinese Fiction and Drama: 1930-1949 A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature by Xi Tian August 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Perry Link, Chairperson Dr. Paul Pickowicz Dr. Yenna Wu Copyright by Xi Tian 2014 The Dissertation of Xi Tian is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Uncertain Satire in Modern Chinese Fiction and Drama: 1930-1949 by Xi Tian Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in Comparative Literature University of California, Riverside, August 2014 Dr. Perry Link, Chairperson My dissertation rethinks satire and redefines our understanding of it through the examination of works from the 1930s and 1940s. I argue that the fluidity of satiric writing in the 1930s and 1940s undermines the certainties of the “satiric triangle” and gives rise to what I call, variously, self-satire, self-counteractive satire, empathetic satire and ambiguous satire. It has been standard in the study of satire to assume fixed and fairly stable relations among satirist, reader, and satirized object. This “satiric triangle” highlights the opposition of satirist and satirized object and has generally assumed an alignment by the reader with the satirist and the satirist’s judgments of the satirized object. Literary critics and theorists have usually shared these assumptions about the basis of satire. I argue, however, that beginning with late-Qing exposé fiction, satire in modern Chinese literature has shown an unprecedented uncertainty and fluidity in the relations among satirist, reader and satirized object. -

Parlarne è già una autentica rivoluzione. Dopo gli scandali sessuali partiti da Hollywood con il movimento #MeToo che ha contagiato il mondo intero in un’ ondata rosa di femminismo che ha coinvolto ogni immagine settore della nostra società, noi di UFASHON non possiamo certamente far finta di nulla e questo nuovo numero dedicato al top dell’Haute Couture mondiale vuole essere il nostro modo di esprimere tutto il nostro amore e la nostra solidarietà a tutte le donne, quelle meravigliose creature che da sempre sono le straordinarie muse del regno fatato dell’Alta Moda.

Dalle sue adorate premiere alle sublimi ricamatrici, dalle abili modelliste alle iconiche editoriale mannequin d’atelier, fino alle modelle che in passerella interpreteranno per lui, come se a ciascuna avesse affidato un ruolo speciale di un copione irripetibile, tutto ciò che con duro lavoro, sacrifico e passione ha sentito l’esigenza fortissima di raccontare. Ed eccole lì, in prima fila, le sue altre amatissime donne: dalle clienti di sempre a quelle nuove, le mitiche millennials, senza dimenticare le sue iconiche muse portafortuna, le splendide celebrities vestite con i suoi abiti, le famose fashion blogger, importanti italiano influencers e leggendarie giornaliste di settore.

Por eso, quisiera expresar mi más sincero agradecimiento a todos ellos, especialmente a mi tutora Cristina Peñamarín Beristain, quien no solo me ha orientado con paciencia y dedicación en el laberinto de la realización de la tesis, sino que también me ha abierto la puerta hacia el mundo semiótico. Merced a ella, abro los ojos a la percepción y exploración de los sentidos producidos e intercambiados a mi alrededor. Además, quería agradecer a los colaboradores de mi trabajo de campo, los entrevistados y las entrevistadas. Tras tantas entrevistas, nos hemos hecho amigos, amigos para toda la vida. Sin su ayuda, no podría saber ni redactar nada. También quisiera dar las gracias a Sheila Villafruela, la profesora que me enseñó español en la Universidad de Estudios Extranjeros de Beijing, China, y despertó en mí un gran interés por el Periodismo del mundo hispanohablante. Gracias a mis padres y a Yuqi, que me han animado y dado el coraje que necesitaba a lo largo de todos estos años. -
