摘要

摘要:本研究通过对中国大陆西藏自治区藏族学生汉语教材的考察，考察了教材中藏人形象的表现和官方对西藏的态度。本文运用多模态话语分析(MDA)，探讨了政府对西藏的认知是如何通过汉语教材中视觉和文本符号资源的共同配置而构建的。这项研究表明，教科书中对西藏的总体态度是积极的。然而，提到西藏或西藏人通常是作为“过去”的话题，这表明他们不文明或落后的感觉。对西藏的正面而刻板的描绘，符合维护民族国家统一的国家认同建设。本研究考察教科书中的文字和图像，以了解国家意识形态和官方对少数群体的态度。

A multimodal approach to attitudes towards Tibet in Chinese language textbooks

ABSTRACT Drawing on an examination of Chinese language textbooks for Tibetan ethnic students in the Tibet Autonomous Region of mainland China, this study scrutinises the representation of Tibetan images and the official attitude towards Tibet embedded in the textbooks. Using multimodal discourse analysis (MDA), the paper investigates how government perceptions of Tibet are constructed through the co-deployment of visual and textual semiotic resources in Chinese language textbooks. This study suggests an overall positive attitude towards Tibet shown in the textbooks. However, the references to Tibet or Tibetans are usually situated as topics of the ‘past’, which indicates a sense of their being uncivilised or backwards. The positive yet stereotyped portrayal of Tibet is in line with national identity construction to ensure a unified nation-state. This study examines both text and image in textbooks in order to understand state ideologies and official attitudes towards a minority group.

期刊介绍： In the twenty-first century ethnic issues have assumed importance in many parts of the world. Until recently, questions of Asian ethnicity and identity have been treated in a balkanized fashion, with anthropologists, economists, historians, political scientists, sociologists and others publishing their studies in single-discipline journals. Asian Ethnicity provides a cross-disciplinary, international venue for the publication of well-researched articles about ethnic groups and ethnic relations in the half of the world where questions of ethnicity now loom largest. Asian Ethnicity covers any time period, although the greatest focus is expected to be on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
