An intellectual memoir by the author of the acclaimed Imagined Communities
Benedict Anderson is one of the leading historians of nationalism and Southeast Asia. His seminal book Imagined Commu-nities has changed the way we think about the reason why people live, die and kill in the name of nation-hood.
Born in China, Anderson spent his childhood in California and Ireland, was educated in England and finally found a home at Cornell University, where he immersed himself in the growing field of Southeast Asian studies. After field work in Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines, he was banned from Suharto’s Indonesia for disputing the legitimacy of the 1965 coup. In his memoir, he brings to life the intellectual formation of a life spent open to the world, resisting the easy comforts of imagined homes: the joys of learning languages; the importance of field work; the influence of the New Left upon global think-ing; and the satisfactions of teaching.
Benedict Anderson was Aaron L. Binenkorp Professor of International Studies Emeritus at Cornell University. He was editor of the journal Indonesia and author of Java in a Time of Revolution, The Spectre of Comparisons: Nationalism, Southeast Asia, and the World and Imagined Communities.
Anderson迷妹的基本素养
评分Insightful perspectives about interdisciplinary studies and academic environments from the 1950s of Europe and USA with interesting anecdotes. Loved to see the Southeast Asia through his eyes. An enjoyable read. Last but not the least, frogs of the world unite!
评分我恨不得给10颗星!老头是真正达到了从心所欲不逾矩啊。全是段子,可是段子里也全是一生的卓见。又是一个发现了,然后痛心疾首已经真正错过的老先生。
评分给我未来是否要读area studies、应该怎样读提供了很多思考,并reconfirm了我对美国academia总体而言的厌恶。
评分成长及田野经历的部分太精彩。学术部分的话,保持一种开阔的跨学科/地域视野固然重要,不过安德森这种cosmopolitanism毕竟还是一种旧欧洲瓦解之前的所谓布尔乔亚知识分子的精神乃至阶级遗留,年轻人看了不要太冲动。。。
本书不止是了解安德森个人生活经历,更是了解二战后美国区域研究(area studies)兴起的珍贵记录。字里行间闪烁着智慧火花,读来让人欲罢不能,书中有许多字句都深深打动我,谨抄录于下: p.11:“在长大成人的过程中,毋庸讳言我们拥有灵魂与个性,但很少困惑于身份,身份主要...
评分 评分如果刚刚阅读完一本文采斐然的非自传体传记作品,那么这本书初读起来就会显得思路散漫、文笔不佳、琐碎无聊。在安德森絮絮叨叨地回忆自己的学术生涯过程中,让我颇有反思的可能是以下几点:一门甚至多门外语的重要性,它无疑是一把打开未知的钥匙;尝试与不同的人交往,而非孤...
评分12.15 anderson's mother said Latin is the mother of most western european languages----french, spanish, portuguese and itlian---so if you know latin, you will find all these language easy. Besides, Latin has a great literature which every well-educated pers...
评分作为一名正在求学中的“青蛙”,安德森的传记描绘了自己一生的学术经历,更重要的是他对20世纪学术发展的批判性思考,带给我很多的启迪和震撼,启迪是智识上的,震撼是情感上的。 “全球化”经历与平等主义 本尼迪克特.安德森的人生经历很难用“哪国人、哪个学校、什么学术流派...
