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.

1963年,本尼迪克特·安德森出席了印度尼西亚总统苏加诺的一次演讲,并为一位年长的欧洲外交官担任翻译。他们震惊地听到总统把希特勒引为同道,赞不绝口: 哇,希特勒真的是绝顶聪明——也许他想说,光有物质基础,幸福还是不可得的,所以他提出了另一个理想,这个理想他称之为...

评分“我母亲曾经告诉我,我说的第一个词是越南语,而不是英语。” 阅读《椰壳碗外的人生》,是从正襟危坐到笑着读完的,对于学者的自传而言,这是难得的体验。这也许来源于本尼迪克特·安德森的爱尔兰气质,当然,这句话本身就是有问题的——如果以安德森的视角来看的话。 对于以...
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“跃出椰壳碗下的青蛙” 在泰国和印度尼西亚有一种比喻,一只青蛙被扣在椰壳碗下面。“静静地坐在椰壳下,青蛙很快就开始觉得椰壳碗圈起了整个宇宙。”“对于这个印象的道德判断是青蛙无缘无故地心胸狭隘、迂腐守旧、深居简出和自我满足。就我而言,我在任何地方都无法久居到安...
