AN ANALYSIS OF THE CULTURAL IDENTITY OF OVERSEAS CHINESE IN AUSTRALIA A Master’s Thesis Presented to The School of Foreign Languages Renmin University of China In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree By Liu Xiaojuan May 2004 1 Acknowledgements I wish to extend my hearty thanks to Professor Zhang Yongxian, my supervisor. It is Prof. Zhang who has initiated me into the field of Australian Language and Culture Studies and helped to shape my thesis from the very start. The completion and polishing of language was also due to his invaluable advice. Without his academic suggestions and consistent encouragement, the thesis would not have accomplished. Special thanks here go to Professor Li Yao, whose suggestions offered enlightenment for the completion of my thesis. My thanks are also expressed to all the professors and teachers who have taught me, for their invaluable instruction, unfailing patience and encouragement. I must treasure forever the opportunity of studying in School of Foreign Languages, RUC in the period between 1998 and 2004. Four years undergraduate study and two years postgraduate study enriched my experiences, widened my knowledge and laid a solid foundation for the production of this thesis. To my parents and my friends at Australian Studies Center, RUC I would also like to express my sincere gratitude for their love and support.
