Dialogism, Heteroglossia, and Carnival: Bakhtin's Concepts and their Implications for Second Language Writing

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This article builds on the idea that Bakhtin's philosophy of language can provide an extremely productive paradigm within which to conduct research and build theory in the field of second language writing. Bakhtin's conceptualization of language has encouraged first language composition researchers to explore the following four major areas of inquiries: 1) reading appropriating and resistance in student writing; 2) responding to student writing in an internally persuasive way; 3) creating a context for alterity; and 4) redefining academic genres and discourse. However, relatively few L2 writing researchers have explored the potential of the Bakhtinian perspective to its fullest extent. Drawing on a number of L1 composition an studies and a growing body of L2 writing research conducted within a Bakhtini framework, this article seeks to suggest potentially productive areas of research in the field of second language writing.
