Description

This book is an autoethnography of the writer's experiences studying in a master's program in Japanese to English technical translation as a heritage speaker of Japanese He describes how his self-perception as a Japanese American and speaker of Japanese change through Japanese language study and the ways in which he approached his language study and crafted his sense of identity in relation to his heritage language and culture These approaches to language study and the hybridized, anthropophagic identity he created for himself were accomplished through the meta-autoethnographic procession of revision and through reflexivity In this way, the creation of the autoethnographic narrative paralleled and was connected to my process of language acquisition and identity development The educational experiences are contextualized in his early life and general educational experiences, how he perceived them, and how he perceived himself in them to give a sense of how he interpreted my successes and struggles in trying to learn his heritage language over the course of the three years he spent working on the degree. These successes and struggles are related to larger social and educational issues that heritage language learners face in studying their mother tongue, such as prejudice in the form of monolingual norms in mainstream language classes, to give a different, more nuanced understanding of these issues and to present new data that might not be collectible in other forms of inquiry. While this narrative relates only experiences from his point of view, Michael Allred often presents angles of different lived experiences through various aspects of his identity such as heritage language learner, world language teacher, and researcher in heritage language studies and world language education; as these different roles have also shaped his values and positionality with respect to issues in heritage language education The result is a complex text that describes lived experiences throughout his life and relates them to multifaceted issues in heritage language education to better understand this complexity.
