商品描述
This book explores intersections between sense of place, the formation of identity, indigeneity and colonisation, literature and literary study, the arts, and a revisioned school curriculum for the Anthropocene. Underpinning the book is a conviction that sense of place is central to the fostering of the change of heart required to secure the survival of human life on earth. It offers a coherent overview of seemingly disparate realities on a geographically and historically sprawling canvas.
The book is a work of literary non-fiction, drawing on a range of sources: literary works and criticism, theoretical research, empirical studies and artworks. Of its very nature, the book enacts an extensive cultural critique. After establishing a cross-disciplinary foundation for "sense of place", the book describes its relationship to identity with reference to such terms as attachment, dispossession, reclamation and representation. It shows how a hopeful narrative for planet stewardship can be developed by the uptake of indigenous and traditional discourses of place. It concludes with the envisioning of a place-conscious curriculum, and ways in which an activist agenda might be pursued in the Anthropocene.
"Terry Locke has written a book that will resonate for many readers internationally. It brings together environmental concerns; issues of identity, place and space; and the role of education in a fast-changing world. All this is imbued with Terry's customary incisiveness, wit and a literary sensibility that makes Sense of Place an enjoyable as well as instructive read. This book is highly recommended for students, teachers, lecturers and a more general public interested in finding their own place, stability and wellbeing amid current social, climatic and political uncertainties." -- Richard Andrews, Emeritus Professor of Language Education, University of Edinburgh
"An intriguing mixture of memoir, poetry and scholarship, this book opens up the crucial issue of place and its complicated significance in an increasingly vulnerable lifeworld. Bringing together place consciousness, lineage, the arts, activism, and climate change, it asks important questions about where we live and how we live, and demonstrates why it matters, now more than ever, to attend to indigenous wisdoms and knowledges, in revisioning curriculum for a more attuned, integrated and harmonious future." -- Emeritus Professor Bill Green, Charles Sturt University
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書探討了地方感、身份形成、原住民性與殖民、文學與文學研究、藝術,以及為人類世修訂的學校課程之間的交集。書中基於一個信念,即地方感對於促進心靈轉變以確保人類在地球上生存至關重要。它提供了一個在地理和歷史上廣泛的畫布上,對看似不相干的現實進行的連貫概述。
這本書是一部文學非虛構作品,引用了多種來源:文學作品與批評、理論研究、實證研究和藝術作品。由於其本質,這本書進行了廣泛的文化批評。在為「地方感」建立跨學科基礎後,書中描述了其與身份的關係,並提及了依附、剝奪、重獲和表徵等術語。它展示了如何通過採納原住民和傳統的地方話語來發展出一個對於地球管理的希望敘事。最後,書中展望了一個以地方為意識的課程,以及在當前人類世中如何追求激進主義議程的方式。
「Terry Locke 寫了一本將會引起許多國際讀者共鳴的書。它將環境問題、身份、地方與空間的議題,以及教育在快速變化的世界中的角色結合在一起。所有這些都充滿了 Terry 一貫的敏銳、機智和文學敏感性,使得《地方感》成為一本既愉悅又具啟發性的讀物。這本書非常推薦給學生、教師、講師以及對於在當前社會、氣候和政治不確定性中尋找自身位置、穩定性和福祉的更廣泛公眾。」 -- Richard Andrews,愛丁堡大學語言教育榮譽教授
「這本書是一個引人入勝的回憶錄、詩歌和學術的混合,開啟了地方及其在日益脆弱的生活世界中複雜意義的關鍵議題。它將地方意識、血脈、藝術、激進主義和氣候變遷結合在一起,提出了關於我們生活的地方和生活方式的重要問題,並展示了為何現在比以往任何時候都更需要關注原住民的智慧和知識,以便為一個更為調和、整合的未來修訂課程。」 -- Bill Green,查爾斯斯圖特大學榮譽教授
