Dreaming In Chinese: Mandarin Lessons In Life, Love, And Language


Dreaming In Chinese: Mandarin Lessons In Life, Love, And Language


$18.99


Deborah Fallows has spent much of her life learning languages and traveling around the world. But nothing prepared her for the surprises of learning Mandarin, China’s most common language, or the intensity of living in Shanghai and Beijing. Over time, she realized that her struggles and triumphs in studying the language of her adopted home provided small clues to deciphering the behavior and habits of its people,and its culture’s conundrums. As her skill with Mandarin increased, bits of the language—a word, a phrase, an oddity of grammar—became windows into understanding romance, humor, protocol, relationships, and the overflowing humanity of modern China. Fallows learned, for example, that the abrupt, blunt way of speaking that Chinese people sometimes use isn’t rudeness, but is, in fact, a way to acknowledge and honor the closeness between two friends. She learned that English speakers’ trouble with hearing or saying tones—the variations in inflection that can change a word’s meaning—is matched by Chinese speakers’ inability not to hear tones, or to even take a guess at understanding what might have been meant when foreigners misuse them. In sharing what she discovered about Mandarin, and how those discoveries helped her understand a culture that had at first seemed impenetrable, Deborah Fallows’s Dreaming in Chinese opens up China to Westerners more completely, perhaps, than it has ever been before. A linguist and China expert learns that to understand China, first you must understand its language.

Media and the Chinese Diaspora: Community, Communications and Commerce


Media and the Chinese Diaspora: Community, Communications and Commerce


$26.49


The importance of the Chinese diaspora is widely recognized. Wanning Sun&#160;examines the key role of the media in the Chinese diaspora. She&#160;focuses especially on the media’s role in communication, in fostering a sense of community, in defining different kinds of ‘transnational Chineseness’ – overseas Chinese communities are often very different from one country to another – and in showing how media communication is linked to commerce, which is often a key activity of the overseas Chinese. Revealing a great deal about the vibrancy and dynamism of the Chinese-language media, the book considers the Chinese diaspora in Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and Australia, showing how it plays a crucial role in the changing nature of the Chinese diaspora.
