具体描述
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.
评分##断断续续读了好久，最近终于收束了。老头子太有劲，彻底点燃了我对东南亚的热情和兴趣。
评分##充满深刻的感悟。真正有志于学者应该打破各种边界，沉迷在自己的小壳里可能舒服，但一定可鄙。
评分##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!
评分##Blend // 目的从不是简化问题，也不是寻求二元的答案 // nationalism和internationalism // 能跳出椰壳碗的青蛙都是幸运的
评分##愿奇才博识做五总龟，不为四寸之学耳。
评分##"...How to use a language to make things so remote also frightening, tragic and understandable."
评分##愿奇才博识做五总龟，不为四寸之学耳。
评分##成长及田野经历的部分太精彩。学术部分的话，保持一种开阔的跨学科/地域视野固然重要，不过安德森这种cosmopolitanism毕竟还是一种旧欧洲瓦解之前的所谓布尔乔亚知识分子的精神乃至阶级遗留，年轻人看了不要太冲动。。。
