内容简介
Kurt Vonnegut's absurdist classic Slaughterhouse-Five introduces us to Billy Pilgrim, a man who becomes 'unstuck in time' after he is abducted by aliens from the planet Tralfamadore. In a plot-scrambling display of virtuosity, we follow Pilgrim simultaneously through all phases of his life, concentrating on his (and Vonnegut's) shattering experience as an American prisoner of war who witnesses the firebombing of Dresden.
Slaughterhouse-Five is not only Vonnegut's most powerful book, it is also as important as any written since 1945. Like Catch-22, it fashions the author's experiences in the Second World War into an eloquent and deeply funny plea against butchery in the service of authority. Slaughterhouse-Five boasts the same imagination, humanity, and gleeful appreciation of the absurd found in Vonnegut's other works, but the book's basis in rock-hard, tragic fact gives it unique poignancy -- and humor.
作者简介
Born in 1922, Vonnegut grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana. His architect father suffered great financial setbacks during the Depression and was unemployed for long stretches of time. His mother suffered from mental illness and eventually committed suicide in 1944, a trauma that haunted Vonnegut all his life. He attended Cornell in the early 1940s, but quit in order to enlist in the Army during WWII.
Vonnegut was shipped to Europe, fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and was captured behind enemy lines and incarcerated in a German prison camp. As a POW, he witnessed the firebombing of Dresden by Allied forces, an event of devastating magnitude that left an indelible impression on the young soldier.
After the war, Vonnegut returned home and married his high school sweetheart. In addition to two daughters and a son of their own, he and his first wife adopted three children orphaned in 1958 by the death of Vonnegut's sister Alice. (He and his second wife adopted another daughter.) The family lived in Chicago and Schenectady before settling in Cape Cod, where Vonnegut began to concentrate seriously on his writing. His first novel, the darkly dystopian Player Piano, was published in 1952 and met with moderate success. Three additional novels followed (including the critically acclaimed Cat's Cradle), but it was not until the publication of 1969's Slaughterhouse Five that Vonnegut achieved true literary stardom. Based on the author's wartime experiences in Dresden, the novel resonated powerfully in the social upheaval of the Vietnam era.
Although he is best known for his novels (a genre-blending mix of social satire, science fiction, surrealism, and black comedy), Vonnegut also wrote short fiction, essays, and plays (the best known of which was Happy Birthday, Wanda June). In addition, he was a talented graphic artist who illustrated many of his books and exhibited sporadically during his literary career. He died on April 11, 2007, after suffering irreversible brain injuries as a result of a fall.

⑤教学生抓重点.教学难免有意外,课堂难免有突变,应对教学意外、课堂突变的本领,就是我们通常说的驾驭课堂、驾驭学生的能力。对教师来说,让意外干扰教学、影响教学是无能,把意外变成生成,促进教学、改进教学是艺术。生成相对于教学预设而言,分有意生成、无意生成两种类型;问题生成、疑问生成、答案生成、灵感生成、思维生成、模式生成六种形式。生成的重点在问题生成、灵感生成。教学机智显亮点.随机应变的才智与机敏,最能赢得学生钦佩和行赞叹的亮点。教学机智的类型分为教师教的机智、学生学的机智,师生互动的机智,学生探究的机智。机智常常表现在应对质疑的解答,面对难题的措施,发现问题的敏锐,解决问题的灵活。

而对于南、北两个方向的边缘族群,周人明显就没有这么客气了。南蛮、北狄分别被贴上了“虫”族和“兽”族的属性。对于周人高看西方的边缘民族,我们可以理解,毕竟于传统史观来看,也承认从黄土高原上走出的华夏民族,与这些位于青藏高原边缘的民族有者血缘上的联系。不过没有为东面的“夷”族贴上一个更为恶劣的标签,却让后世很多以华夏正统自居的人所看不懂。当然,要理解这一点首先要看得懂字义本身所带有的属性。不过对于后世很多人来说,这些都已经不重要了。无论是“西戎”还是“东夷”都已经彻底的沦为贬义词了。尽管在每一个历史时期,这四个方位的族群结构并不相同(特别是所谓“东夷”)。
