Cultural Childhoods不同文化的童年

1 When I look back on my own childhood in the 1970s and 1980s and compare it with children today, it reminds me of that famous sentence "The past is a foreign country: They do things differently there" (from L. P. Hartley's novel The Go-Between). Even in a relatively short period of time, I can see the enormous transformations that have taken place in children's lives and in the ways they are thought about and treated.

每当我回顾20世纪七八十年代我的童年时光,并将它与现在孩子的童年相比较时,就会想起句名言:“往昔是异国他乡,那里有着不同的习俗”(可参见L.P.哈特利的小说《传信人》)。甚至在相对短暂的一段时间内,我也能够察觉到儿童的生活以及人们对待儿童的方式上所经历的巨大变化。

2.Looking further back I can see vast differences between contemporary and historical childhoods. Today, children have few responsibilities, their lives are characterized by play not work, school not paid labour, family rather than public life and consumption instead of production. Yet this is all relatively recent. A hundred years ago, a 12 year old working in a factory would have been perfectly acceptable. Now, it would cause social services' intervention and the prosecution of both parents and factory owner.

回顾更久远的岁月,我可以看到现在和古代童年生活的巨大差别。如今的儿童责任很少,他们生活的主要内容是玩耍而非工作,上学而非劳动,在家里呆着而不是和外界交往,消费而非生产。这种变化也是最近才显现出来的。一百年前,12 岁的孩子在工厂打工是完全可以接受的事情,而现在,这会招来社会服务机构的介入,其父母和工厂主会被起诉。

3. The differences between the expectations placed on children today and those placed on them in the past are neatly summed up by two American writers, Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre English. Comparing childhoods in America today with those of the American colonial period (1600–1776), they have written: "Today, a four year old who can tie his or her shoes is impressive. In colonial times, four-year-old girls knitted stockings and mittens and could produce intricate embroidery: At age six they spun wool. A good, industrious little girl was called 'Mrs‘instead of 'Miss' in appreciation of her contribution to the family economy: She was not, strictly speaking, a child."

有两位美国作家,芭芭拉·埃伦里奇和迪尔德丽·英格利希,她们简要地概括了过去和现在人们对儿童的期待的差异。在比较美国现在的儿童和殖民地时期(1600–1776)的儿童时,她们写道:“今天,如果一个四岁的孩子能自己系鞋带就很了不起了。而在殖民地时期,四岁的女孩会织长筒袜和连指手套,能做复杂的刺绣,六岁就能纺毛线了。一个善良勤快的女孩被称为‘夫人’而不是‘小姐’,这是为了表彰她对家庭经济的贡献,严格说来她不是一个孩子了。”

4 These changing ideas about children have led many social scientists to claim that childhood is a "social construction". They use this term to mean that understandings of childhood are not the same everywhere and that while all societies acknowledge that children are different from adults, how they are different and what expectations are placed on them, change according to the society in which they live.

对儿童的看法不断变化着,这使得许多社会科学家宣称童年是一种“社会建构”。他们用这个术语来说明不同的地区对童年的理解是不一样的,虽然所有社会都承认儿童与成年人有区别,至于他们之间有何不同,人们对儿童又有何期待,不同的社会给出了不一样的答案。

5 Social anthropologists have shown this in their studies of peoples with very different understandings of the world to Western ones. Jean Briggs has worked with the Inuit of the Canadian Arctic and has described how, within these communities, growing up is largely seen as a process of acquiring thought, reason and understanding (known in Inuit as ihuma). Young children don't possess these qualities and are easily angered, cry frequently and are incapable of understanding the external difficulties facing the community, such as shortages of food. Because they can't be reasoned with, and don't understand, parents treat them with a great deal of tolerance and leniency. It's only when they are older and begin to acquire thought that parents attempt to teach them or discipline them.

社会人类学家在研究那些跟西方国家持有不同世界观的民族时也表明了这个观点。琼·布里格斯研究过加拿大北极地区的伊努伊特人,她描述了在这些社会群落中成长是怎样大体上被看成是一个获得思想、理性和理解力(伊努伊特人称之为ihuma)的过程。

小孩子不具备这些素质,所有才容易生气,常常会哭,无法理解群落所面临的诸如食物短缺之类的外在困难。由于无法跟他们讲理,即便讲了他们也不明白,父母对他们很宽容、很温和。一直要等到他们年龄大一点,并开始有自己的思想时,父母才会尝试着去管教他们,约束他们。

6 In contrast, children on the Pacific island of Tonga, studied by Helen Morton, are regularly beaten by their parents and older siblings. They are seen as being closer to mad people than adults because they lack the highly prized quality of social competence (or poto as the Tongans call it). They are regularly told off for being clumsy and a child who falls over may be laughed at, shouted at, or beaten. Children are thought of as mischievous; they cry or want to feed simply because they are naughty, and beatings are at their most severe between the ages of three and five when children are seen as particularly wilful. Parents believe that social competence can only be achieved through discipline and physical punishment, and treat their children in ways that have seemed very harsh to outsiders.

相反,根据海伦·莫顿的研究,太平洋岛国汤加的儿童经常挨父母和哥哥姐姐的打。人们认为儿童和成年人相比更像疯子,因为他们缺乏被大家看重的社会能力(汤加人称之为poto)。小孩子经常因为笨手笨脚而挨骂,他们连摔跤都会被嘲笑、呵斥,甚至被打。

人们认为儿童很顽皮,都是因为淘气他们才哭闹,或者要东西吃。在大人看来,三至五岁的儿童尤其任性,因此他们打这个年龄段的孩子也打得最狠。父母们相信,只有靠训导和体罚才能使孩子获得社会能力,所以他们用一种在外人看来非常严厉的方式对待孩子。

7 In other cases, ideas about children are radically different. For example, the Beng, a small ethnic group in West Africa, assume that very young children know and understand everything that is said to them, in whatever language they are addressed. The Beng, who've been extensively studied by another anthropologist, Alma Gottlieb, believe in a spirit world where children live before they are born and where they know all human languages and understand all cultures. Life in the spirit world is very pleasant and the children have many friends there and are often very reluctant to leave it for an earthly family (a fictional account of a spirit child's journey between the spirit and the earthly world is given in Ben Okri's novel, The Famished Road). When they are born, they remain in contact with this other world for several years, and may decide to return there if they are not

properly looked after. So parents treat young children with great care so that they're not tempted to return, and also with some reverence, because they're in contact with the spirit world in a way that adults aren't.

在其他的例子中,有关儿童的观念则截然不同。例如,西非的一个叫孟加拉的很小的族群认为,不管说什么、用什么语言说,小孩子都能听明白,并且能理解。另一位人类学家阿尔玛·戈特利布对孟加拉族进行了广泛的研究,孟加拉族人认为小孩子出生前居住在灵界,在那里他们通晓人类所有的语言,能理解所有的文化。灵界的生活很惬意,小孩子在那里有很多朋友,他们通常极不愿意离开那儿,来到地球上的家庭中(本·奥克雷的小说《饥饿之路》就描述了一个小孩在灵界和人世之间往返的故事)。他们出生后仍然与那个世界保持长达数年的联系,如果没有得到良好的照顾,他们就可能要返回灵界。因此,父母们悉心照料孩子,以免他们受到诱惑,回归灵界,而且对他们也有几分敬畏,因为他们具备大人所不具备的通灵的本领。

8 There's a tendency to view children in the UK, and in the Western world in general, as incompetent and dependent. But this isn't the case throughout the world. In many societies children work and contribute to the family in whatever way they can from a very early age. A good example of this is childcare. In the UK, it is illegal for a child under the age of 14 to look after another child unsupervised, because they're deemed incompetent and irresponsible. In other cultures, this is not the case. Michelle Johnson has written about the Fulani of West Africa describing how by the age of four, girls are expected to be able to care for their younger siblings, fetch water and firewood and by the age of six will be pounding grain, producing milk and butter and selling these alongside their mothers in the market.

在英国及其他西方国家,越来越多的人认为儿童缺乏能力,依赖性强。但也不是全世界的人都持这种看法。在很多社会里孩子从小就开始工作,寻找各种机会为家里挣钱。以看管孩子为例,在英国,14岁以下的儿童在没有成人监督的情况下照看其他孩子是非法的,因为人们认为他们缺少看孩子的能力和责任心。

而在其他文化里,情况并非如此。米歇尔·约翰逊曾写过西非的富拉尼族女孩四岁就得照看年幼的弟弟妹妹,要打水、拾柴,六岁就得舂米、挤奶、做黄油,并和妈妈一起到市场上去贩卖这些东西。

9 Across the world, among the Yanamam?of the Amazonian rainforest, another anthropologist, Napoleon Chagnon, has shown how different these children's childhoods are from Western ones, and also how differently boys and girls grow up in comparison with other parts of the world. He has written how a Yanamam?girl is expected to help her mother from a young age and by the age of ten will be running a house. By the age of 12 or 13 she is probably married and will have started to have babies. Boys on the other hand, have far fewer responsibilities. They don't marry until later than girls and are allowed to play well into their teens. Western notions of childhood simply do not "fit" in these cases, where children's competence and responsibilities are understood very differently.

另一位人类学家拿破仑·沙尼翁证实了在世界的另一端,地处亚马逊雨林的亚那马莫族孩子的童年与西方孩子的童年有什么不同,以及那里的男孩儿女孩儿们跟世界其他地方的男孩儿女孩儿的成长方式的差异。他写道,亚那马莫族女孩儿很小就得帮妈妈做家务,到十岁就开始管家。

到十二、三岁时可能就结婚生子了。男孩儿的责任则要少得多,他们比女孩儿晚结婚,可以

玩到十八九岁。西方的童年观在这里根本不适用,因为这里的人们对儿童的能力和责任有着完全不同的理解。

10 Social anthropologists ask questions about how childhood, and the role of children, is seen within the communities they study, rather than how it fits into Western ideas about childhood. By doing this they seek to avoid imposing outside ideas onto people with very different understandings of the world or of making value judgments on other people's ways of raising their children. While Westerners might take exception to eight- year-old girls working or to 12-year-old girls marrying, within their own communities such activities are seen as a normal and positive part of childhood. Indeed, seen through the eyes of non-Westerners, many "normal“Western childcare practices are seen as extremely bizarre and possibly harmful to children. Placing children in rooms of their own, refusing to feed them on demand, or letting them cry rather than immediately tending to them, are viewed very negatively in many societies and lead some to think that Westerners don't know how to look after children properly.

社会人类学家探寻的是在他们所研究的族群里人们是如何看待童年,以及儿童扮演的角色问题,而不是研究那些地区的童年观是否符合西方的观念。他们这么做是为了避免把外界的观念强加给那些持不同世界观的人身上,或者是为了避免对其他民族养育孩子的方式作价值观方面的判断。西方人可能会反对八岁的女孩儿打工,反对12岁的女孩结婚,

但在他们自己的族群里,这些事情被视为童年生活的一个积极的常态。

的确,在非西方人看来,许多“正常的”西方育儿方式极其怪异,可能对孩子是有害的。让孩子在自己的屋里呆着,想吃东西的时候不给他们吃,或者任由他们哭闹而不赶快去安抚他们,这些在很多社会里都是不对的事情,会让人觉得西方人根本不懂得如何照看孩子。

11 Childhood is a changing social phenomenon, of continual fascination and concern. Looking at it from a cross-cultural perspective shows the wide variety of childhoods that exist across the world and warns against interfering in or criticizing people whose lives, and understandings of the world, are very different to our own. All societies recognize that children are different to adults and have particular qualities and needs; what anthropologists and other social scientists are interested in are the ideas that each society has about the nature of childhood and the impact these views have on children's lives.

童年是一种处于变化之中的社会现象,具有持续的吸引力,并且不断受到关注。从跨文化角度来看待这个问题能展示出世界上各种各样的童年生活,并警示我们不要随意干涉或指责那些生活方式及世界观跟我们不一样的人。所有的社会都承认儿童和成年人是不同的,他们有自己独特的品性和需求;人类学家和社会科学家感兴趣的是每个社会对儿童的天性都有什么样的看法,以及这些看法又如何影响儿童的生活。

Unit 3 Language points 1 For lack of a better terminology, one might name these: (1) the sensuous plane, (2) the expressive plane, (3) the sheerly musical plane. (Para 1) The expression for lack of a better terminology is used to introduce rather inexact terms. It means since we don’t have any exact terms, I’m going to use these rather rough terms. The word sensuous suggests physical pleasure which relates to your physical senses rather than to your emotions and thoughts. A plane is a level of thought, development or existence. The word sheer is used to emphasize the amount or degree of something. The sheerly musical plane refers to the level of the musical material, melodies, rhythms, harmonies etc. The sheer pleasure (Para 2, Line 2) means great or pure pleasure. 2 The only advantage to be gained from mechanically splitting up the listening process into these hypothetical planes is … (Para 1) The word hypothetical means to be based on situations or events that seem possible rather than on actual ones. Here, the planes are not real, they are just part of a model for analysis and discussion. 3 One turns on the radio while doing something else and absent-mindedly bathes in the sound. A kind of brainless but attractive state of mind is engendered by the mere sound appeal of the music. (Para 2) To bathe means to swim or wash yourself in a bath, river or lake. To bathe in the sound means to immerse yourself in the sound, like in water. To engender means to cause a feeling or attitude to exist. The expression engendered by the mere sound appeal means to be created only by the appeal or attraction of the sound. 4 Music allows them to leave it ... dreaming because of and apropos of the music yet never quite listening to it. (Para 3) The expression apropos of means relating to; it is used to introduce something else about the subject you are talking about. The expression is derived from French, and the final -s is silent in pronunciation. Unit 3 Art for art’s sake

Catching Crabs 1 In the fall of our final year, our mood changed. the relaxed atmosphere of the preceding summer semester, the impromptu ball games, the boating on the Charles River, the late-night parties had disappeared, and we all started to get our heads down, studying late, and attendance at classes rose steeply again. We all sensed we were coming to the end of our stay here, that we would never get a chance like this again, and we became determined not to waste it. Most important of course were the final exams in April and May in the following year. No one wanted the humiliation of finishing last in class, so the peer group pressure to work hard was strong. Libraries which were once empty after five o'clock in the afternoon were standing room only until the early hours of the morning, and guys wore the bags under their eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride, like medals proving their diligence. 大学最后一年的秋天,我们的心情变了。刚刚过去的夏季学期的轻松氛围、即兴球赛、查尔斯河上的泛舟以及深夜晚会都不见了踪影,我们开始埋头学习,苦读到深夜,课堂出勤率再次急剧上升。我们都觉得在校时间不多了,以后再也不会有这样的学习机会了,所以都下定决心不再虚度光阴。当然,下一年四五月份的期末考试最为重要。我们谁都不想考全班倒数第一,那太丢人了,因此同学们之间的竞争压力特别大。以前每天下午五点以后,图书馆就空无一人了,现在却要等到天快亮时才会有空座,小伙子们熬夜熬出了眼袋,他们脸色苍白,睡眼惺忪,却很自豪,好像这些都是表彰他们勤奋好学的奖章。 2 But there was something else. At the back of everyone's mind was what we would do next, when we left university in a few months' time. It wasn't always the high flyers with the top grades who knew what they were going to do. Quite often it was the quieter, less impressive students who had the next stages of their life mapped out. One had landed a job in his brother's advertising firm in Madison Avenue, another had got a script under provisional acceptance in Hollywood.The most ambitious student among us was going to work as a party activist at a local level. We all saw him ending up in the Senate or in Congress one day. But most people were either looking to continue their studies, or to make a living with a white-collar job in a bank, local government, or anything which would pay them enough to have a comfortable time in their early twenties, and then settle down with a family, a mortgage and some hope of promotion. 还有别的事情让大家心情焦虑。每个人都在心里盘算着过几个月毕业离校之后该找份什么样的工作。并不总是那些心怀抱负、成绩拔尖的高材生才清楚自己将来要做什么,常常是那些平日里默默无闻的同学早早为自己下几个阶段的人生做好了规划。有位同学在位于麦迪逊大道他哥哥的广告公司得到了一份工作,另一位同学写的电影脚本已经与好莱坞草签了合约。我们当中野心最大的一位同学准备到地方上当一个政党活动家,我们都预料他最终会当上参议员或国会议员。但大多数同学不是准备继续深造,就是想在银行、地方政府或其他单位当个白领,希望在20出头的时候能挣到足够多的薪水,过上舒适的生活,然后就娶妻生子,贷款买房,期望升职,过安稳日子。 3 I went home at Thanksgiving, and inevitably, mybrothers and sisters kept asking me what I was planning to do. I didn't know what to say. Actually, I did know what to say, but I thought they'd probably criticize me, so I told them what everyone else was thinking of doing. 感恩节的时候我回了一趟家,兄弟姐妹们免不了不停地问我毕业后有什么打算,我不知道该
