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.

評分##"...How to use a language to make things so remote also frightening, tragic and understandable."
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##Benedict Anderson shows that a real internationalist should respect cultural diversity and minority rights. 各美其美,天下大同。

評分##成長及田野經曆的部分太精彩。學術部分的話,保持一種開闊的跨學科/地域視野固然重要,不過安德森這種cosmopolitanism畢竟還是一種舊歐洲瓦解之前的所謂布爾喬亞知識分子的精神乃至階級遺留,年輕人看瞭不要太衝動。。。
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!
