What happens when language wars are not about hurling insults or quibbling over meanings, but are waged in the physical sounds and shapes of language itself? Native and foreign speakers, mother tongues and national languages, have jostled for distinction throughout the modern period. The fight for global dominance between the English and Chinese languages opens into historical battles over the control of the medium through standardization, technology, bilingualism, pronunciation, and literature in the Sinophone world. Encounters between global languages, as well as the internal tensions between Mandarin and other Chinese dialects, present a dynamic, interconnected picture of languages on the move. In "Sound and Script in Chinese Diaspora," Jing Tsu explores the new global language trade, arguing that it aims at more sophisticated ways of exerting influence besides simply wielding knuckles of power. Through an analysis of the different relationships between language standardization, technologies of writing, and modern Chinese literature around the world from the nineteenth century to the present, this study transforms how we understand the power of language in migration and how that is changing the terms of cultural dominance. Drawing from an unusual array of archival sources, this study cuts across the usual China-West divide and puts its finger on the pulse of a pending supranational world under 'literary governance.'

从language和diaspora的角度来提出与史书美教授不同的理解sinophone的方法，提倡sinophone处理的是diaspora与china的关系，而非完全断裂~~恩恩，其实是王德威教授在讲座时推荐的（。）
评分結構有點亂，6，7，8章看不下去，第四章的林語堂寫得最有意思。Carlos Rojos寫了個書評指出本文幾處拼音分隔不當，說咦這真是活生生的literary governance呢。然而她的確是難得史料和理論都運用的人，好過太多腦洞大開的人

评分打字机一章最好，但或许大半要归功于林语堂本人。rivalry over (linguistic) hospitality是值得深挖的点，参考Casanova不如读利科
评分打著紅旗反紅旗，打著 Sinophone 反 Sinophone
