具體描述
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.

##"...How to use a language to make things so remote also frightening, tragic and understandable."
評分##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!
評分##人的一生也是要看曆史的行程嘛，如果不是趕上瞭大時代，也沒有什麼特彆beyond boundaries的地方瞭
評分##Need a cosmopolitan Brit to divert me at the moment.
評分##願奇纔博識做五總龜，不為四寸之學耳。
評分##真人生偶像。
評分##願奇纔博識做五總龜，不為四寸之學耳。
評分##1.好看可讀性強，長知識八卦。想起《摩洛哥田野作業》，但本尼迪剋特·安德森的研究並非人類學角度的，而著重於社會體係，民族認同。 2.歐洲中心。 3.作傢本人及其傢族可謂貴族加傳奇瞭兄弟Gary Anderson走的也是伊頓牛劍路綫，雖然方嚮不一樣，都是大學者。 4.迴憶錄包括個人和研究環境。研究環境我認為是最有價值的一部分。對東南亞研究的開始基於什麼理由，冷戰結束後對發展方嚮，彼時的局限性在哪。 5.frog的隱喻：坐井觀天。 6.他的《想象的共同體》不好翻譯，因為他寫作時是有一個debate對象的：the UKintelligentsia。因此文中有很多英語母語人士能理解的段子，作為外國人不好理解也翻譯不齣的地方。
評分##Blend // 目的從不是簡化問題，也不是尋求二元的答案 // nationalism和internationalism // 能跳齣椰殼碗的青蛙都是幸運的
