  • 본 연구는 언어 학습이 실행공동체 (Communities of practice) 참여를 통한 사회적 학습과정이라는 전제 하에, Norton (2001)의 상상 공동체 (Imagined communities) 개념을 바탕으로 언어학습자들의 다면적 동기를 이해하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 특별히 기존 제2언어습득 문헌에서 상대적으로 연구되지 않은 미국 내 소수민족언어 (less commonly taught languages) 중 하나인 한국어 학습자의 다면적 동기를 조명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 미국 동부 소재 대학에서 한국어 강의를 수강하는 11명의 학생들을 대상으로 심층적 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 연구 분석결과 학습자 그룹 내에 관찰되는 상상공동체의 유형으로 K-pop 문화공동체, 직업 공동체, 한국 친인척 공동체, 민족 정체성 공동체의 네가지 유형이 관찰되었다. 그리고 학습자 개개인의 상상 공동체는 언어 배경, 학습 기간, 매체 사용 등의 다양한 경험을 통해 다양하게 발전, 변화하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 계승어 학습자와 비계승어 학습자 간에 지향하는 상상 공동체의 유형을 비교해 보았을 때 명확한 차이가 나타났다. 또한 기존 문헌에서 계승어 관련 동기 (heritage motivation or motivation related to heritage)라 명명되는 개념 내에도 학습자의 경험에 따라 실제로는 상이한 공동체 유형이 존재함이 발견되었다.

  • To help define future research direction and enhance educational service for children from Asian and Latino immigrant backgrounds, this review examines research investigating social competence with reference to host and heritage language skills. A targeted search obtained 14 peer-reviewed studies published from 1994 to 2014 focusing on children aged from birth to 12 years. Social competence is mainly measured by four dimensions: externalizing behaviours, internalizing behaviours, social skills and relationships with others. The evidence suggests that English proficiency levels are positively associated with social skills and parent-child relationships are of higher quality when parent-child heritage language difference is minimal. However the findings are mixed regarding how English levels are associated with externalizing, internalizing behaviours and relationships with others and how heritage language levels are associated with social competence. This review makes a set of recommendations for future research including assessment of participants' language proficiency with language tests and examination of emotional factors in the relationship between English and social competence. The implications of the findings are also discussed for educators.

응구기와 시옹오의 범아프리카주의 - 포스트식민 국가를 넘어서는 주변부의 기억과 연대 (Ngugi wa Thiong'o's Pan-Africanism: People's Memory and Alliance to Overcome Postcolonial Nations)

  • 근대 이후 많은 지역이 국가 단위를 넘어선 대륙 단위의 통합체를 구상한 바 있다. 오래 전부터 지구촌의 각 대륙에서는 범아랍주의, 범라틴아메리카주의 나아가 범아시아주의를 구상한 사상가들이 지속적으로 나타났으며 여전히 많은 사람들에게 이것들이 국민국가의 틀을 넘어선 지역과 세계의 행복한 관계를 구현할 수 있는 체제로 받아 들여지고 있다. 이러한 지역 내의 국가를 하나로 묶는 작업은 국민국가의 폐쇄성을 넘어선다는 점에서 상당한 의미가 있지만, 그것이 그 지역이 공유하는 문화적 가치와 다른 지역과 다른 역사적 특징과 지역적 경계를 전제한다는 점에서 세계시민주의와도 구별된다. 이러한 사상이 유럽연합이나 남미국가연합처럼 구체적인 정치적 행동으로 나타나게 될 때 국민국가처럼 일정한 폐쇄성을 가질 수밖에 없는 점은 분명하다. 국민국가와 세계 사이의 중간지대를 지향하는 이러한 운동을 우리는 '국가를 넘어선 국가주의'로 부를 수 있을 것이다. 케냐라는 국민국가의 차원에서 외세로부터의 경제적, 문화적 자주독립과 독재로부터의 민중의 해방을 위해 활동해 온 응구기는 아프리카연합에 주목하면서 이 기구가 지향하는 범아프리카주의는 유엔, 미합중국, 유럽연합과 같은 기능을 수행할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다. 응구기는 현재의 아프리카의 질곡은 다양한 문화적 기원을 가진 부족들이 혼재하던 공간에 인위적인 국경선을 채우고 그 공간 속을 살게 된 아프리카인들이 국민국가의 이기적인 틀 속에서 살아가기 때문이라고 본다. 그는 범아프리카주의를 통해 동일한 언어와 문화를 가진 아프리카의 구성원들이 근대 국민국가의 과도한 쇼비니즘적 욕망을 제어하는 민중의 연합을 꿈꾼다.

  • 이 연구는 전국 수어지명의 유래에 대한 것으로 수어지명에서 나타나는 한국수어 형태론적 특성과 어원론적 형태를 통해 유래를 알아보고자 전국의 한국농아인협회 각 시·군 지회를 통한 간행자료들을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 수어지명에서는 한자, 한글, 외래어 등에서의 차용성보다 토박이 수어지명 즉, 농인에 의해 만들어지고, 사용된 수어지명이 대다수를 이루고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 지명은 해당 지역의 문화, 정체성 등과 함께 역사를 나타내는 소중한 문화유산에 해당한다고 볼 때에 수어지명에 나타난 풍부한 도상성, 토박이 수어지명은 농문화 혹은 한국수어에 있어 보존, 전승의 가치가 있다고 할 수 있다. 그것은 수어지명의 유래가 해당 지역의 특산품, 지리적 특성 등에 의한 수어지명이 현대에 이르러 그 지역의 지리적 특성이 변화되었거나, 특산품 자체가 사라진 상황에서도 지속적으로 여러 세대를 거쳐 이어져 오고 있다는 것이다. 이는 수어지명에서 볼 수 있는 농인의 시각중심적인 한국수어의 특성을 반영한다고 볼 수 있으며, 농문화사적인 자료보존 차원에서 매우 값진 유산이 될 수 있는 것으로 보인다.

  • This paper looks at the literary mood of southwestern Russia in the late Russian Empire, while examining the writers of this area and their literary tendencies. Southwestern literature was formed in the late Russian Empire, and prospered centering around Odessa. Because of the uniformity in the Soviet culture, however, it could not stay alive but disappeared in the history of Russian literature. Odessa, the center of southwestern literature was a multiracial region unlike other Russian cities. A unique culture was created, therefore, combining the western European culture and local ethnicity. Jews in Odessa could enter into the Russian society and assimilate naturally. They could utilize their talents as a strength to enrich the Russian culture without giving up their cultural heritage. For example, in lingual aspects, using Yiddish was not against the Russian culture. In addition, it contributed to interesting new coinages and led to efforts among writers to minimize the gap between the two languages. Many Jewish writers showed special interest not only in Yiddish but also in French, German and other languages. Therefore, they took the lead in translating and introducing west classics. As evident in the way Yiddish language was formed, mixing their language with other languages enabled jews to soak their way into other cultures naturally. Their yearning for the Russian and western European cultures, combined with their unique sense of humor, led to generic twists and problematic experiments. From another point of view, it is also unusual that southwestern literature diversified locational settings and heroic characters in literary works. European style heros, appearance of multiracial people, pain or waggery experienced by Jews in their assimilation process, thrilling revenge to unfair violence of Russians, and espiegle swindlers are the new domains that southwestern literature pioneered. In summary, southwestern literature was formed in a heterogeneous cultural climate, which was entirely different from the Russian Empire. In this regard, it was in deviation from the Russian literary tradition. From the Soviet point of view, it existed as a heresy which was against the Russian Empire.

  • Education systems throughout the world encourage their students to learn languages other than their native one. In Australia, our Education Boards provide students with the opportunity to learn European and Asian languages. French, German, Chinese and Japanese are the most popular languages studied in elementary and high schools. This choice is a reflection of Australias European heritage and its geographical position near Asia. In most non-English speaking countries, English is the foreign language most readily available to students. In Korea, the English language is actively promoted by the Education Department and, in less official ways, by companies and the public. It is impossible to be anywhere in Korea without seeing the English language alongside or intermingled with Korean. When I ask students why they are learning English, I receive answers that include the word globalization and the importance of English throughout the world. When I press further and ask why they personally are learning English, the students mention passing exams, usually high school tests or TOEIC, and the necessity of passing the latter to obtain a good job. Seldom do I ever hear anything about communication: about the desire to talk with other people in English, to read novels or poetry in English, to understand movies or pop-songs in English, to chat on the Internet in English, to search for information on the Internet in English, or to email pen-pals in English. Yet isnt communication the only valid reason for learning a language? We learn our native language to communicate with those around us. Shouldnt we set the same goal for learning a foreign language? In my opinion communication, whether it is reading and writing or speaking and listening, must be central to language learning. Learning a language to pass examinations is meaningless unless those examinations are a reliable indicator of the ability of the student to communicate. In previous eras, most communication in a foreign language was through reading novels or formal letters. This required a thorough knowledge of grammar and a large vocabulary. Todays communication is much less formal. Telephone conversations, tele-conferences, faxes and emails allow people to communicate regularly and informally. Reading materials are also less formal as popular novels and newspapers are available world-wide. Movies and popular songs have added to the range of informal communication available. Finally travel has ensured that people from different cultures will meet easily and regularly. This informal communication requires less emphasis on grammar and vocabulary and more emphasis on comprehension and confidence to speak. Placing communication central to language learning has important implications for the Education system and for teachers.

  • For the effective study of Korean modernization from the 18th century to the present, three areas have been investigated in my paper: the age of dawn in recognizing the necessity of modernism, the era of experimentation from recognition to practice, and the development of modernism in literature: from the 1930s to the present. Through whole process of discussing those matters, Koreanity- identifying itself to be Korean - has been emphasized. While the so-called traditional values confronted with the whole turmoil of socio-political demolitions in the name of modernization, westernization, and culturalization, Korean intellectuals tried to emphasize how important it was to keep Korean identities, namely the Koreanity. Such examples can be seen in the activities of Northern School and Moderate School. Though Koreans had to have a short hair cut in contradiction with their traditional morality to be modernized/westernized/cultivated, it was a turning point for them to take a step toward the international world. During the period of Korean modernization through the impact of Western world, Korean language-hangul- has been cultivated to the highest level in comparison with two foreign languages: Japanese and English. Those Korean linguists who were familiar with these two languages made Korean grammar systematic and they understood the importance of preserving Koreanity in the course of pursuing modem western society. In this sense, Korean modernism is related to the cultural glocalism(globalism+ localism), not to the cultural globalism. Through the help of socio-political modernization, Korean literature in modernism has been full bloomed in the early years of 1930s. One of the leading poets was Sang Lee whose poetic heritage is inherited by those groups of 1950s and I 960s. Among many others, Chunsu Kim and Sunghun Lee were the main figures in realizing the fact the poetry is written in Korean which they considered the body, the soul, and the mother land.

  • Today the Olympics are considered representative of a culture that symbolizes the country's image and cultural specificity, and important colors act as effective means of Olympics marketing. Each color is unique to the natural environment and cultural heritage is one of the languages of each country, region or community and it symbolizes. Hence, the purpose of this study was to examine the color and to view the color image displayed on Olympic uniforms based on the national color sensibility. After analyzing the color image of the Olympic athletes, including six kinds of uniforms and operational personnel, a cool casual/casual image is created more frequently, followed by a modern, gorgeous, dynamic, elegant/chic, dandy/classic image. The uniform color is consistent with the national image and the theme of the Pyeongchang Olympics is to enhance the country's competitiveness by widely promoting the national image of Korea around the world. Furthermore, it is necessary to provide the empirical basis for creating the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympic uniforms.

  • "The IFLA Multicultural Library Manifesto"에서는 도서관은 이주민을 포함한 사회의 모든 구성원들에게 차별 없이 서비스해야 하며, 적합한 언어와 문자로 된 정보를 제공해야 하고, 모든 지역사회 구성원 분포와 그들의 요구를 반영하는 자료 및 서비스를 제공해야 한다고 제안하고 있다. 현재 한국사회가 다문화사회로 급격히 이행되고 있어 공공도서관에서는 IFLA의 지침을 실천해야 하는 것이 현실적 과제로 대두되고 있다. 이를 고민하는 의도에서 이 연구에서는 캐나다 리치몬드시 공공도서관의 이주민을 위한 서비스 경험을 살펴보고 서비스에서 드러나는 주요한 특징을 고찰해보았다. 이를 토대로 부산시 공공도서관을 사례로 하여 이주민서비스의 현황을 점검하며 서비스 개발을 위한 방향과 과제를 도출하였다.
