這是「經典閱讀:伊里亞斯《文明化過程》」的姊妹課程。二者同樣研讀創始自德國猶太裔社會學家伊里亞斯(Norbert Elias, 1897-1990) 的文明化過程研究。面對著起始於西方人自我圖像後而傳布全球的文明與野蠻這樣的對立概念與現實,伊里亞斯尋問著,文明究竟何謂、成壞又是何致。
本課不同之處在於,非是集中於單一扛鼎巨作,而是分進合擊,選讀伊里亞斯於文明化過程諸般脈絡面向中展現的多樣研究成果,包括《莫札特》、《宮廷社會》、《臨終者的孤寂》、《個體的社會》、《論時間》、《社會學是什麼》等等已有中譯,適合學生細讀的著作,以及身體、性別、知識、符號等等主題相關段落,乃至教育社會學、藝術社會學之後續延伸,並以其晚年大作《論德意志人》作為引子,以之開場。
這兩門課著力閱讀伊里亞斯,絲纏表裡,內蘊互見。可單修其中一門,以窺經典堂奧,也可無分先後,研習二課,更見廣博精深。
期許同學,透過如此經典研讀,能夠由外而內,由學問思辨的學習,進一步反思自身、反思當代。
各文本之研讀分量、相對比重,如有需要,可依課程進行與同學興趣,予以微調。This is a companion course to "Classic Reading: Ilias' "The Civilization Process"". Both of them also studied the study of the civilization process originated by the German Jewish sociologist Norbert Elias (1897-1990). Faced with the opposing concepts and realities of civilization and barbarism that originated from Westerners' self-image and spread around the world, Elias asked what civilization is and what makes it good or bad.
The difference of this course is that it does not focus on a single masterpiece, but it divides it into a group attack and selects and reads Ilias's diverse research results in various aspects of the civilization process, including "Mozart", "The Court" "Society", "The Loneliness of the Dying", "The Society of Individuals", "On Time", "What is Sociology", etc. have been translated into Chinese and are suitable for students to read carefully, as well as works on body, gender, knowledge, symbols, etc. and other theme-related paragraphs, and even subsequent extensions of the sociology of education and the sociology of art, and started with his late masterpiece "On the Germans" as an introduction.
These two courses focus on reading Ilias, intertwining the surface and the inside, and the inner meanings are intertwined. You can take one of the courses alone to get a glimpse of the classics, or you can study the two courses in no particular order to gain a deeper understanding of the subject.
I hope that through the study of such classics, students can learn from the outside in and from the perspective of academic thinking, and further reflect on themselves and the contemporary world.
The study weight and relative weight of each text can be fine-tuned, if necessary, according to the progress of the course and the interests of the students.
