바흐친의 대화주의 이론에 대한 탐색적 고찰 - 한국어 학습자 정체성 연구와 관련하여 -

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore and apply the ways in which Mikhail M. Bakhtin’s (1895~1975) concept of Dialogism can frame our understanding of SLA identity research as well as Korean language education in general. Scholarship in second and foreign language learning has traditionally looked to the field of linguistics and psycholinguistics for its epistemological foundations. In this tradition, a formalist view of language influenced over the years on research and actual education fields. But as concerns with the limitations of this view for understanding fully language learner’s experiences have recently increased, with scholars calling for explorations into other disciplinary territories. One of the more significant sources of current understands of language can be found in the work of Bakhtin, a Russian literary theorist. He developed his ideas in response to early Russian formalist. He viewed language as comprising dynamic constellations of sociocultural resources that are fundamentally tied to their social and historical contexts. In this study, there are two main purposes to present: 1) The importance of identity studies in SLA research, and 2) Introduction of Bakhtin’s Dialogism and its implications & application in analyzing Korean language learning experiences of European Korean Studies students.
