<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\nThis presentation examines systems of privilege that organize the study of ‘foreign’ and ‘world’ languages.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Through discursive framing, participants\u2019 written responses to a survey conducted at a university\u2019s ‘World Languages Day’ reveal an alignment with hegemonic ideologies of race and nation that elevate English monolingualism as a proxy for a White, virtuous cultural order within which ‘World language’ education safely\u2014and additively\u2014finds its place.<\/p>\n

The facilitator for this lecture is Bradley Boovy<\/b><\/i>, he is Assistant Professor of German and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Oregon State University<\/b> (U.S.A.) His research focuses on queer publishing in the second half of the twentieth century with a particular emphasis on the role of race and transnationalism in structuring queer subjectivities in Germany and the United States. Recently he has also begun a project with his colleague Adam Schwartz<\/b><\/i> on the ways in which notions of race and racialized identities influence students\u2019 acquisition of second languages.<\/p>\n

Bradley Boovy<\/b><\/i> conducted and published this research together with Adam Schwartz<\/b><\/i>, Assistant Professor of Spanish and Linguistics in the School of Language, Culture, and Society at Oregon State University<\/b>.
