摘要
Building upon previous research on family language policy, this study explores the homescape, pertinent to the Chinese home literacy environment within Chinese transnational families. It categorizes various forms of Chinese literacy homescape and examines parental perspectives and agency in the design, creation, and adaptation of the homescape within their households. The study draws on ethnographic data from four Chinese-speaking families residing in France and Germany. Data includes sound recordings of family interactions, photographs, in-depth interviews and field notes from discussions with family members. Adopting the lens of ethnographic Linguistic Landscape, the study categorizes the Chinese literacy homescape into four sensory modalities: highly visible, semi-visible, soundscape, and digital and interactive. Findings reveal that parents employ highly strategic and agentic approaches when designing the Chinese literacy homescape, demonstrating their keen awareness of the unique characteristics of the Chinese writing system and the specific challenges their children face when learning to read Chinese. Cette & eacute;tude examine les paysages linguistiques familiaux et l'environnement familial concernant la litt & eacute;racie en chinois au sein des familles transnationales chinoises en Europe. Elle & eacute;tudie la mani & eacute;re dont les parents exercent leur agentivit & eacute; en concevant, cr & eacute;ant et adaptant les paysages linguistiques familiaux au sein de leur famille, et cat & eacute;gorise les ressources en alphab & eacute;tisation chinoises au sein de l'environnement familial multilingue. L'& eacute;tude pr & eacute;sente les r & eacute;sultats d'une enqu & eacute;te ethnographique men & eacute;e aupr & eacute;s de quatre familles sinophones r & eacute;sidant en France et en Allemagne. En adoptant une approche ethnographique des paysages linguistiques, l'analyse interroge la visibilit & eacute;, le positionnement intentionnel et inconscient, la fr & eacute;quence d'utilisation d & eacute;clar & eacute;e et les diverses formes de ressources. Gr & acirc;ce & agrave; cette exploration, l'& eacute;tude propose de cat & eacute;goriser les paysages linguistiques domestiques de la litt & eacute;ratie chinoise en fonction de modalit & eacute;s sensorielles telles que le visuel, l'auditif et l'interactif. Diese Studie untersucht die famili & auml;re Sprachlandschaft und das h & eacute;usliche Umfeld in Bezug auf die chinesische Literalit & auml;t in chinesischen transnationalen Familien in Europa. Die Studie analysiert wie Eltern ihre Handlungsm & ouml;glichkeiten nutzen, um die Sprachlandschaft innerhalb der Familie zu gestalten und anzupassen, und kategorisiert die chinesischen Literalit & auml;tsressourcen im mehrsprachigen h & auml;uslichen Umfeld. Die Studie pr & auml;sentiert die Ergebnisse einer ethnografischen Untersuchung von vier sinophonen Familien, die in Frankreich und in Deutschland leben. Durch einen ethnografischen Ansatz zur Analyse von Sprachlandschaften untersucht die Studie die Sichtbarkeit, die bewusste und unbewusste Positionierung, die Nutzungsh & auml;ufigkeit und die verschiedenen Formen der Ressourcen. Im Rahmen dieser Untersuchung werden die famili & auml;ren Sprachlandschaften der chinesischen Literalit & auml;t in sensorische Modalit & auml;ten wie visuell, auditiv und interaktiv kategorisiert.
