Abstract This study examines the evaluation of place in orientation sequences of narratives of internal migration to the Southern United States. Unlike other narratives of displacement, narratives of internal migration foreground talk about the here and now in which tellers evaluate place as an important aspect of narrative meaning-making. The current study draws on five narratives of internal migration told during research interviews about growing up bilingual in the South to examine how the South (and other places) are evaluated by young bilingual adults in the region. This study demonstrates how evaluations of place provide a resource for constructing narrators’ authority, moral positions, and belonging in relation to two main stereotypical narratives of the South, i.e. as a racialized and racist place or as a moral and hospitable place. The study has implications for understanding the construction of place and self identity in narrative as well as processes of migration of immigrant families within the U.S.

评估国内移民叙事方向的位置

摘要 本研究考察了美国南部内部移民叙事的方向序列中的地方评估。与其他流离失所的叙事不同,内部迁移的叙事前景谈论的是此时此地,讲述者将地方评估为叙事意义制定的一个重要方面。目前的研究借鉴了在南方双语成长的研究访谈中讲述的五种内部移民叙述,以研究该地区年轻的双语成年人如何评估南方(和其他地方)。本研究展示了对地方的评价如何为构建叙述者的权威、道德立场和与南方两种主要陈规定型叙事相关的归属感提供资源,即作为种族化和种族主义的地方或作为道德和好客的地方。
