Look! Here’s a New Idea! Using Information Technology to Facilitate the Use of Expository Text

Talking electronic stories are now an accepted part of many infant children’s early reading experiences and research has suggested that they have benefits in terms of reading development. Linda Pagett here describes the impact on her class of children of the non-fiction equivalent of these talking stories – the simple talking topic ‘books’ produced by Sherston Software. Her favourable report suggests that simple books like these have much more potential than might at first be realised.     

纪实小说的写实特征与价值体现

对于争议中的纪实小说，不应丙作单向度的判断，而应给予多维的审美批评，就写实特而言，或以新闻的叙事立场进行“实体化”写实，体现其信息价值，或以个人的亲历与经验侧重于“主体化”写实，体现其,坐 体实验上，则显示出“边缘化”的写实风格，实践着学现代审美理想与追求。     

Representing the Inuit in Contemporary British and Canadian Juvenile Non-Fiction

The article draws on research conducted in Britain and Canada into representations of the Inuit in juvenile non-fiction. Through the examination of text and pictorial representations in reference books, and geographical and historical non-fiction, attention is drawn to the continuing prevalence of a wide range of stereotypes. With the help of a discussion group of Inuit and other residents of the Arctic, key issues are confronted and strengths and weaknesses of a variety of representations identified. The article concludes by recommending various approaches that would result in a more balanced image of the Inuit, and by analogy, of other indigenous people worldwide.     

Exploring adolescent development through the use of popular non-fiction novels

The purpose of this review is to examine the utility of using journalistic accounts of adolescence to convey the complexities of adolescent development. Three non-fiction texts are considered: Wonderland by Michael Bamberger, A Tribe Apart by Patricia Hersch, and A Hope in the Unseen by Ron Suskind. The safe environment provided by these books gives prospective teachers an intellectual space to consider their future teaching and to hear the voices of their prospective students. Moreover, exploring these non-fiction texts helps prospective teachers understand today's adolescents and allows them to reflect on adolescent identity and development using a real-world setting.     

新时期以来非虚构小说研究述评

自从1966年,杜鲁门.卡波特用非虚构小说一词描绘他的小说《冷血》以来,非虚构小说就从美国流行开来。时至今日,40多年过去了,非虚构小说在中国的发展并不尽如人意,不如它在国外发展迅速,成绩骄人。但自2010年第2期开始,《人民文学》开辟＂非虚构＂新栏目,陆续刊发十几篇作品,在文学界引发了一场关于非虚构小说的新一轮讨论。笔者拟从非虚构小说产生的背景、非虚构小说的定义、非虚构小说与其他纪实小说的关系、非虚构与真实的关系、关于非虚构小说的理论研究、非虚构小说存在的问题及意义几个方面展开,力图为非虚构小说研究勾勒出一个较为完整的图像,理清其新时期以来的发展脉络。     

Reading research in Hungary

Much recent reading research in Hungary has focused on the formation of readers’attitudes and value judgements. This paper reports the results of a number of such studies, based on research with various groups, including library users, ‘killed-worker’ students, and children. A‘more books’programme has been found to be successful in developing a more discriminating approach to literature, but there is concern over national trends in reading. International studies have shown Hungarian students to be comparatively good at science but poor at reading. More books are being bought, and the proportion of women readers is increasing, but adults are spending less time on reading, and have a growing interest in non-fiction. The results of reading research in Hungary are not regarded as of purely theoretical interest. Such results are regularly used by librarians and by educational administrators.     

非虚构叙事与时代精神

＂非虚构＂一般涉及文学性＂非虚构＂与非文学的＂非虚构＂两大类型。＂非虚构＂体现着一种时代精神。＂非虚构＂自身存在着一些深层悖论,远不像预想的那样简单。     

关于古籍注释的多元思考

古籍注释已有数千年历史,前人在这方面作了大量工作,为祖国传统化的延续与发展作出极大贡献。今天的古籍整理和注释,在借鉴前人成果的基础上更当有所发展。只是我们应有一些与前人不同的观点和方法。古籍内容跟当时的历史背景与环境有着密切的联系,古籍注释必须考察当时的历史环境;古籍注释必须注意方言这个领域;古籍注释应懂得一定的科学知识;古籍注释需要考虑战略、战术等战争方面的因素;古籍注释还可以从考古发现中得到启发。     

Reading the Multimodal Ologies: New Literacy Challenges or Old Wine in New Bottles?

In this article, the Ologies series of books are interrogated with a focus on whether they present new challenges for the reader or merely require previously acquired skills. The multimodal texts are unusual in that they combine non-fiction with fantasy while including tactile elements such as flaps, pull-outs and items to stroke. Ways of approaching multimodal texts are discussed with reference to the work of Kress, van Leeuwen and Moss. Finally, reference is made to Mackey’s research on multimodal platforms, applying her terms ‘playing the text’, the notion of ‘performance’ and ‘engaging in the rules of the game’. The conclusion leaves the question posed in the title open and suggests further research into actual readers will reveal more.     

《世说新语》非小说论是假命题

《世说新语》到底是不是小说历来说法颇多,这主要是由小说概念的复杂性和《世说新语》自身文本的多重性所决定的。但就现有材料而言,《世说新语》非小说论是错误的。     

生命教育视野下的幼儿图画书阅读

图画书不是插图书,不是认字书,也不是语言教科书。图画书运用"图"和"文"两种媒介,为幼儿创造了独特的阅读世界。从生命教育的角度看,阅读图画书就是幼儿与图画书、与同伴、与老师展开对话,共同建构多元化意义,从而引领幼儿享受图画书所创造的感性世界、故事世界、幻想世界的乐趣的过程。让图画书走进幼儿的日常生活,需要以合作共享为轴心建立生态阅读圈,以经验整合为轴心建立阅读系统。如此,逐步使阅读成为幼儿的生活方式,图画书才能真正以润物细无声的方式惠泽幼儿的生命。

非虚构文学的三个维度

理解非虚构文学应该从新闻、文学和方法这三个维度出发。在20世纪六七十年代的美国,人们也把非虚构小说归入新新闻写作,或者称新新闻写作为非虚构小说。同时,非虚构文学还是一种方法,既是一种写作方法,又是一种思维方法。     

乡村挽歌与身份迷失——解读梁鸿的非虚构文学《中国在梁庄》《出梁庄记》

梁鸿是中国当代非虚构文学创作领域的重要作家,其代表作《中国在梁庄》《出梁庄记》具有典型的非虚构特征。"梁庄"是中国社会转型期乡村现实的直接表征,也寄寓着作者对乡土中国社会病症的深层思考。乡民通过"扯秧子"的基本方式进入城市谋生,身份迷失和精神痛苦成为他们永远难以抹掉的印记。"纪实"和"虚构"作为一种"矛盾共同体",已经有效融入梁鸿的非虚构文学创作过程中,其利弊得失值得进一步探究。     

An Approach to Writing Non-fiction

There is plenty of evidence that non-fiction writing tends to have been neglected until quite recently. David Wray and Maureen Lewis discuss the importance of extending the range of children's writing and go on to introduce the use of writing frames, a strategy for scaffolding children's non-fiction writing. This strategy has been extensively trialled as part of the Exeter Extending Literacy Project and does seem to offer some worthwhile benefits in writing development.     

对图画书阅读视域下幼儿情感价值培养的思考

图画书贴近孩子生活,具有艺术性、文学性、文字和图画和谐共处等特点,对幼儿情感价值的培养有着独特的作用。但是在幼儿图画书阅读活动中却存在重功利轻兴趣、重意义轻感受、重讲授轻个性等问题。图画书阅读能使幼儿体验到爱的价值,使幼儿身心愉悦,促使他们把图画书阅读当作一件快乐的事情来享受。通过幼儿与材料的互动、师幼之间的互动,使幼儿阅读活动更加富有活力。
