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.

##Need a cosmopolitan Brit to divert me at the moment.
評分我恨不得給10顆星！老頭是真正達到瞭從心所欲不逾矩啊。全是段子，可是段子裏也全是一生的卓見。又是一個發現瞭，然後痛心疾首已經真正錯過的老先生。
評分##Anderson的受教育經曆與Tony Judt非常相似——戰後，倫敦，靠奬學金纔得以接受精英教育，分外強調曆史、語言學習和文學的人文教育背景，並且兩人的生活和研究經曆都在突齣陌生感在學術研究中的作用。這本書裏時不時涉及的美國學科構建、評定教職、對跨學科和“理論”的追捧，被行業黑話所腐蝕的學術寫作，讓人不得不思考我們是不是在錯誤的道路上越走越遠。
評分##斷斷續續讀瞭好久，最近終於收束瞭。老頭子太有勁，徹底點燃瞭我對東南亞的熱情和興趣。
評分##"...How to use a language to make things so remote also frightening, tragic and understandable."
評分##願奇纔博識做五總龜，不為四寸之學耳。
評分##終於讀瞭。多謝友鄰贈書！任性吐槽也好，循循善誘也好，說到底這是一段太有時代感的人生。區域研究早已今非昔比。
評分##真人生偶像。
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
