凯特·福克斯(Kate Fox),社会人类学家,牛津大学社会问题研究中心联执主任,英国文化研究学会研究员。在英格兰、美国、爱尔兰、法国等地辗转完成敦育后,赴剑桥大学攻读人类学和哲学。她的工作主要是观察和评估全球社会文化的趋势,特别是针对人类行为的诸多方面,例如饮酒、调情、酒吧行为、暴力、赛马、手机聊天、健康忧虑、嗅觉心理等,一些成果颇受关注和好评。她的父亲罗宾 福克斯(RobinFox)也是一位人类学家。
In WATCHING THE ENGLISH anthropologist Kate Fox takes a revealing look at the quirks, habits and foibles of the English people. She puts the English national character under her anthropological microscope, and finds a strange and fascinating culture, governed by complex sets of unspoken rules and byzantine codes of behaviour. The rules of weather-speak. The ironic-gnome rule. The reflex apology rule. The paranoid-pantomime rule. Class indicators and class anxiety tests. The money-talk taboo and many more ...Through a mixture of anthropological analysis and her own unorthodox experiments (using herself as a reluctant guinea-pig), Kate Fox discovers what these unwritten behaviour codes tell us about Englishness.
当年去英国读书前,特地找来此书拜读预热,还记得读完后盘算着过去之后找个场合践行一下本书作者的田野调查,可惜惰性使然没能认真完成,不过毕竟在英国文化里待过那么一阵子,耳濡目染其实也够自己微观解析下了。 英式口音是让我自打学英语时就向往的发音,可惜自己当年身处苏...
评分虽说是本轻松的读物,却写得很规范。从前言、结论和后记中可以看出,这是一本纯正的人类学著作。 我最喜欢“前言:本土人类学”这一章,作者(她本人也是英国人)用英国的幽默方式介绍了研究对象、研究综述和方法论,却没有采用任何一个吓人的专业术语和标签,反而讲述了很多...
评分 评分 评分最大的乐趣和收获就是学会了怎样伪装成英国上流阶层:饭后甜点一定要说pudding而不要说dessert,厕所一定要说loo或lavatory而不要说toilet,客厅叫做living room而不叫lounge,沙发叫做sofa而不是couch(because couch is much too American...)非常好玩的一本书!
评分TBH The English have so many in common with the Chinese: the social dis-ease, the hypocrisy, the politeness etc. But how can they utter these to the best is what we are lacking... in addition, the quirky humour is what I fancy about the English, which sets them in and out of what is happening. An overall very informative book and fun to read!
评分grumpy stoicism, typical!
评分扭捏作态,虚情假意,阴阳怪气,死要面子活受罪,这奏是英格兰人!(但是从头到尾都好有共鸣好心虚怎么办
