Showcasing a new methodology in language learning and identity
research, this carefully conceptualized, innovative book explicates
the use of autoethnography as a way of re-imagining one's sense of
linguistic and cultural identity. A key work for researchers and
students in Applied Linguistics and Language Education, it
addresses fundamental aspects of research methodology and explores
substantive issues relating to individual dimensions of
multilingualism. Choi shows convincingly how the learning of a
language is inseparable from one's constant searching for a voice,
a place, and a self in this world, demonstrating the importance of
interrogating what lies behind everyday life events and
interactions-the political and ethical implications of the
utterances, thoughts, actions, and stories of the self and others.
Themes of authenticity, illegitimacy, power relations, perceptions
of self/other, cultural discourses and practices, and related
issues in multilingual identity development surface in the
multi-modal narratives. Chapters on methodology, woven through the
book, focus on the process of knowledge production, approaches to
writing narratives, the messiness of research writing practices,
and the inseparability of writing and research.
