Beyond traditional modeling
The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI, shortened as AI thereafter) has reshaped feedback delivery and engagement in higher education contexts, yet it remains unknown how second or foreign (L2) learners’ attitudes toward AI, agency in using, and acceptance of AI connect with their engagement with AI-generated feedback. This study, therefore, utilized network analysis to investigate the connections among the domains of …
Exploring the congruence and incongruence of future selves as predictors of engagement among multilingual learners
This study addresses two gaps in quantitative second language acquisition (SLA) research. First, most statistical methods assume linear relationships, failing to reveal potential curvilinearity in language learning outcomes. Second, research is predominantly on English learners, creating a monolingual bias while neglecting learners of other languages (LOTE). Guided by the L2 motivational self-system, the present study applied polynomial regressio…
How country names legitimize economic nationalism
This research presents a critical metaphor and metonymy analysis of how national names in economic reporting carry nationalist ideology and persuade public opinion. Adapting Charteris-Black’s Critical Metaphor Analysis (2004, 2018), this research analyzes the linguistic, conceptual and communicative level of the metaphoric and metonymic use of ‘ China’ and ‘ Australia’ in Australian media coverage of a high-profile transnational business deal. A …
The Cambridge World History of Sexualities
Volume I offers historiographical surveys and general overviews of central topics in the history of world sexualities. Split across twenty-two chapters, this volume places the history of sexuality in dialogue with anthropology, women's history, LGBTQ+ history, queer theory, and public history, as well as examining the impact Freud and Foucault have had on the history of sexuality. The volume continues by providing overviews on the sexual body, fa…
Taking Life Too Lightly" or "Martyred for Righteousness"? Officials' Suicides in the High Qing
This article is a preliminary examination of officials' suicides in the high Qing. While existing research has amply described specific aspects of suicide in the Qing law, especially among women commemorated in the "chastity cult," this piece presents a more systematic view of suicide's legal definitions and common tropes in suicide cases. It also considers how the economic and cultural backdrop of the high Qing shaped elite men's suicides. How d…
Forum
At the request of PHR, the four historians in this forum discuss methods for feminist history. Drawing on their experiences as scholars and individuals, each author considers their personal experiences with creating feminist history, given their unique fields and positionalities; and they also offer prescriptions for future scholars. In the opening essay, Judy Tzu-Chun Wu discusses methodological insights gleaned over multiple projects as a biogr…
Between Inevitability and Surprise
Using personal trans narrative toward framing a transgender historical method, this essay describes the large-scale historical trends that have led to the present moment in the history of trans people, the way that the Internet provides a place for everyone to act as their own historians, and the potential insights that transgender auto-historiography offers to feminist and gender scholars. This essay is part of a PHR forum on the theme of “Perso…
Gray Markets in the Great Leap
This article uses legal archives from Liangshan 梁山 county, Shandong, to explore the ambiguous position of rural markets in China during the Great Leap Forward campaign (1958–1962). These testimonies, though sparse, show that negotiations at a local, indeed personal, level underpinned the symbiosis between the “second economy” of illicit trade and the party-state’s putatively socialist political economy. Liangshan’s gray market bridged the gap bet…
Reinventing Licentiousness
This book navigates an overlooked history of representation during the transition from the Qing Empire to the Chinese Republic — a time when older, hierarchical notions of licentiousness were overlaid by a new, pornographic regime. The book draws on previously untapped archives to argue that pornography in China represents a unique configuration of power and desire that both reflects and shapes historical processes. On the one hand, since the lat…
Heroes, Hooligans, and Knights-Errant
This article is an exploration of media and gender in urban and peri-urban China during the 1950s and early 1960s – specifically, the persistent trope of the “hooligan,” or liumang . Since at least the late imperial period, Chinese authorities had feared unmarried, impoverished, rootless men as the main source of crime, disorder, and outright rebellion. Yet such figures were simultaneously celebrated as knights-errant for their violent heroism in…
Shame, Survival, Satisfaction
This article uses Beijing police case records between 1913 and 1948 to uncover a new view of male-male sexual relationships and their legal regulation infin-de-siècleChina. It moves beyond previous studies' focus on sexological discourse and the world of Peking opera, revealing that sex between men was neither rare nor secret to most denizens of the city. Much older practices and vocabularies surrounding male-male sex endured, even flourished, fo…
Whorish Representation
Using materials from police reports to song chapbooks, this article traces the experience of and discourse about sexually explicit media in late Qing and early Republican Beijing. Although explicit representations of sex and efforts to control them had a long history in China, two new forces converged in this period: ideas about reproductive bodies and technologies of reproducing information. These factors injected unprecedented volatility into t…
