ABSTRACT This thesis focuses on Bakhtinian¡¦s three approaches, chronotope, carnivalesque and heteroglossia in David Henry Hwang¡¦s M. Butterfly. Since it is released, most critics mainly emphasize on the relationship between Gallimard and Song Liling. Gay issue becomes an underlying theme when readers study this play. Therefore, my thesis, based on Mikhail Bakhtin¡¦s theory, will analyze the parodic functions produced by Hwang to oppose to the empirical ideology in Madame Butterfly. The introduction, Chapter one, begins with a short summary of M. Butterfly and an overview of the theoretical frame of Bakhtin¡¦s theory as well as an explanation of the connection between Bakhtinian approach and M. Butterfly. In Chapter two, I discuss how chronotope, time and space, affects Gallimard. Chronotope represents changing concepts that appear in different situations. From Gallimard¡¦s prison to Song Liling¡¦s apartment, each event is considered a crucial form-shaping ideology. Chapter three chiefly deals with Song Liling¡¦s transvestism and Bakhtin¡¦s carnivalesque. Song Liling, like a carnival clown, turns over the western authority by masquerading her/himself and brings forth the concept of equality of all races. Chapter four aims to manifest a multiple constructed society. Bakhtin¡¦s heteroglossia designates to destroy the unification and centralization that colonialists use to dominate the non-white. Heteroglossia helps reveal the centrifugal discourses saturated in the society to secure the oppressed voice in this play. In the concluding chapter, I reiterate the analysis of M. Butterfly and Bakhtin¡¦s three approaches as well as describe the consequence of western ideology.

Dialogue, which developed by David Bohm, is a foundation of learning organization. But dialogue often considered as hard to understand. This research use more structural and simpler way to introduce this abstruse and abstract theory. Help people who want to learn dialogue easier to get a correct understanding. This research use theoretical review method to arrange three specialized books about dialogue which wrote by David Bohm, Linda Ellinor and Glenna Gerard, William Isaacs. Allocate in to five categories: summary about dialogue, problem cause by thought process which confront people and cross, how to learn dialogue, proceeding dialogue, dialogue in organization. In the last chapter, compares three books and present other findings during research.
