Deborah Fallows: Seeing China through Language
Linguist Deborah Fallows has spent much of her life traveling and learning languages, but nothing prepared her for the surprises of learning Mandarin, China's most common language, or for the intensity of living in Shanghai and Beijing. But Fallows, author of Dreaming in Chinese, realized that as her skill with Mandarin increased, bits of the language became windows into the romance, humor, protocol, relationships, and humanity of modern China. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with University Book Store. Series media sponsorship provided by Publicola. Series supported by The Boeing Company Charitable Trust and the RealNetworks Foundation.
