Identities Development Of Adult Chinese Heritage Language Learners From Southeast Asian American Families, Feng Liang
Identities Development Of Adult Chinese Heritage Language Learners From Southeast Asian American Families, Feng Liang
Journal of Southeast Asian American Education and Advancement
Although linguistic and cultural varieties exist among Chinese Heritage Language Learners (CHLLs), little attention has been given to how adult CHLLs with non-Mandarin backgrounds attempt to negotiate their identities when they learned Chinese.

Circulation Of Images, From Recognition To Erasure: An Artist’S Response, Lei Xie
Artl@s Bulletin
This article revolves around my practice, as an artist, which has an essential link with images and their circulation. In a subtle way, painting offers me a language allowing me to explore the polysemy of the chosen image, to experience a vocabulary both figurative and abstract. My practice could choose and process "ordinary" images, which are diffused but whose diffusion does not alter the subject, and has no consequence on the latter. It can also retain images whose strength is intrinsic to their circulation, to their popularization, to their controversy, images which will however ultimately generate paintings, and simultaneously erasing …
