本書特點：1.最新理論為綱：不像很多同類書籍，仍以索緒耳的組合／聚合為綱，本書以最新理論為綱較好。2.文句簡潔明快：文句增一分不可，減一分不行，使一般讀者很快進入狀況；作者運用語言之能力極佳。3.舉例適當：所舉諸例皆具說服力。4.理論切合實際：理論與漢語、英語實際情況結合得很成功。 魯國堯 南京大學漢語言文字學教授、博士生導師 中國音韻學研究會會長 在結繩記事的時代就已有語言學，今天語言學領域不但涵蓋語言分析及語言結構，更企圖把研究主題延伸到認知科學的版圖，而且在語音合成(sound synthesis)的分析及人工智慧(artificial intelligence)方面尤有貢獻。語言學也兼及社會文化及心理的層面，一方面積極從社會結構及男女性別差異等面向來解構語言和社會的關係，另一方面，語言學也直探我們的心理深處，希望能從語言訊息處理過程來理解語言和人類心理活動之間的互動。 本書先從現代語言學探索的兩個問題入門，其次界定語言能力(linguistic competence)或語言本能(linguistic instinct)及語言使用(linguistic performance)的分野，據此將現代語言學分為理論語言學(theoretical linguistics)及應用語言學(applied linguistics)。探索「語言能力」的部分稱為理論語言學，涵蓋了語音學、音韻學、構詞學、句法學及語義學等五個主題，分別見於本書二到六章。其他的語言學專業，如社會語言學、語用學、神經語言學、心理語言學、語言習得和第二語言習得等共六個主題，則為本書七到十二章。末章為歷史語言學，探究語言的改變及語言的分類。書末附有極實用之「名詞解釋」。

From the multiple award-winning creator of Small in the City and the illustrator of I Talk Like a River comes an innovative and moving look at memories, filtered through the mind of a child. Tucked in bed at a new apartment, a boy and his mother trade favorite memories. Some are idyllic, like a picnic with Dad, but others are more surprising: a fall from a bike into soft piled hay, the smell of an old oil lamp when a rainstorm blew the power out.Now it’s just the two of them, and the house where all those memories happened is far away. But maybe someday, this will be a favorite memory, too: happy and sad, an end and a beginning intertwined.In a series of warm and wistful vignettes, as achingly fleeting as childhood memories always become, Sydney Smith takes us into the mind of a young person processing a bevy of complex emotions during a major life change. Do You Remember? is a stirring meditation on holding fast to the best of the past, and choosing to believe in the future.A New York

Dazzled by the twilight of 17th-century painter Aert van der Neer’s Moonlit Landscape with a Road beside a Canal (1645–1650), contemporary Spanish artist Alberto Reguera created twenty three paintings as an homage to the celebrated artist of the Dutch Golden Age.This new series of paintings examines and connects directly to Van der Neer’s masterpiece, and the important painterly achievements of the Dutch painter’s generation.The exhibition and accompanying publication is the second collaboration between the University Museum and Art Gallery (UMAG) and Alberto Reguera. While the first exhibition Blue Expansive Landscape (2015) was notable for the display of the painter’s two- and three-dimensional works, and his innovative ways of painting beyond the canvas, Homage to Aert van der Neer is a similarly complex endeavour that has been achieved through a successful partnership with UMAG, the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza and the artist.當代西班牙藝術家 Alberto Reguera 艾拔圖‧雷古拉 傾慕於十七世紀荷蘭畫家 Aert v

Bubbe's relationship with the city is complex - nothing is quite as she remembered it and she feels alienated and angry at the world around her. Benji, on the other hand, looks at the world, and his grandmother, with clear-eyed acceptance.As they wander the city, we catch glimpses of Bubbe's childhood in Germany, her young adulthood in 1950s Brooklyn, and her relationships; first with a baker called Gershon, and later with successful Joe, Benji's grandfather. Gradually we piece together snippets of Bubbe's life, gaining an insight to some of the things that have formed her cantankerous personality. The journey culminates on the Lower East Side in a moving reunion between Rosa and Gersh

In the early 1980s, Mary Hall is a little girl growing up in poverty in Camden, New Jersey, with her older brother Jacob and parents who, in her words, were "great at making babies, but not so great at holding on to them." After her father leaves the family, she is raised among a commune of mothers in a low-income housing complex. Then, no longer able to care for the only daughter she has left at home, Mary's mother sends Mary away to Oklahoma to live with her maternal grandparents, who have also been raising her younger sister, Rebecca. When Mary is legally adopted by her grandparents, the result is a family story like no other. Because Mary was adopted by her grandparents, Mary’s mother, Peggy, is legally her sister, while her brother, Jacob, is legally her nephew.Living in Oklahoma with her maternal grandfather, Mary gets a new name and a new life. But she's haunted by the past: by the baby girls she’s sure will come looking for her someday, by the mother she left behind, by the fat

Pearl develops Freudian psychoanalytic theory in a complex account of the ways in which grief is expressed and worked out in literature, showing how key texts from the AIDS crisis by authors such as Edmund White, Michael Cunningham, Eve Sedgwick – and also, later, the archives of The ACT UP Oral History Project - lie both within the tradition of gay writing and a postmodernist poetics. The book demonstrates how literary texts both expose and construct personal identity, how they expose and produc

《Jazz Cosmopolitanism in Accra》是一部融合回憶錄、民族誌、傳記與音樂史的深度之作，從迦納首都阿克拉的在地視角，重新思考爵士樂的全球流動與文化意義。作者 Steven Feld 為聲音人類學的重要開拓者，他以長時間的田野傾聽，貼近描寫當地爵士音樂人如何在日常生活中，將非洲音樂傳統、非裔美國爵士精神與個人生命經驗交織在一起。書中聚焦多位關鍵人物，包括實驗性鼓手 Ghanaba（Guy Warren）、以 John Coltrane 為精神核心的薩克斯風演奏者 Nii Noi Nortey、深受前衛爵士鼓手啟發的傳統打擊樂大師 Nii Otoo Annan，以及以喇叭音樂為司機送行的 por por 車隊文化。透過這些故事，作者提出「acoustemology」的概念，將聲音視為理解世界的方式，也藉此挑戰以美國為中心或過度單一化的爵士史敘事。Jazz Cosmopolitanism in Accra is a richly textured exploration of jazz as an African diasporic art form, told from the perspective of musicians in Ghana’s capital city. Drawing on memoir, biography, ethnography, and music history, Steven Feld—pioneer of the anthropology of sound—listens closely to how Accra’s jazz players engage the world through what he terms an “acoustemology,” a way of knowing shaped by sound.Centered on the lives and creative practices of figures such as Ghanaba (Guy Warren), Nii Noi Nortey, Nii Otoo Annan, and the por por horn ensembles of Accra’s drivers, the book traces complex mus

Douglas Wood asks this question in the style that has made him an internationally bestselling author. He answers it by focusing on the world of one child, then moving to another child’s world farther away, and then yet still farther, to the ends of the Earth, before bringing the text back to its starting point. Stunning artwork provides a beautiful sweeping look at a world that is simple yet complex, one in which the sun always rises to reveal a new day, a new life, and a new chance.

本書為 Anthony Reid 關於「東南亞商業時代」的重要研究之最終卷，聚焦十五世紀至十七世紀中葉之間，東南亞在全球貿易體系中迅速變動的關鍵時刻。當歐洲正經歷文藝復興與早期資本主義轉型時，東南亞同樣因香料貿易的蓬勃發展，迎來城市化、商業化與國家結構重組的深刻變革。作者指出，貿易導向的城市興起，使國家權力趨於集中與專制，伊斯蘭教、基督教與上座部佛教也在新的政治結構中快速傳播，改變了人們對信仰與個人道德的理解。Reid 將這些變化與歐洲、日本的歷史發展相互對照，同時也審慎分析東南亞在私人資本累積與國家穩定性上的限制。書末探討十七世紀中葉的危機，如何使東南亞逐步退出世界經濟舞台長達數百年。本書以嚴謹學術與清晰敘述見長，是理解東南亞歷史與全球早期現代化進程的重要經典。In The Lands Below the Winds--the first volume of a two-volume set chronicling the rise of Southeast Asian culture during the years from 1450 to 1680--Anthony Reid vividly explored everyday life in the different societies of the region, from diet, housing, commerce, and law to sexual and family relations, patterns of warfare, and popular entertainment. In doing so he enables us to perceive the underlying coherence and splendid variety in the complex mosaic of Southeast Asia.
