前言
北京大學出版社2008年最新引進了一套國外暢銷的《英語寫作原版影印系列叢書》,并邀請我為這套叢書寫序,談談我對英語寫作教學與研究的一些認識。我仔細翻閱后,覺得這套書特色十分鮮明,其中有幾本再版達十次以上,經久不衰,非常樂意在此推薦給我國的廣大讀者。 在經濟全球化和網絡高度發(fā)達的今天,學好英語已變得十分重要,英語口頭與書面語的表達能力已逐漸成為當今的核心競爭力之一,從第二語言學習的社會文化觀看,能否流利地運用外語進行口頭或書面交流已直接關系到學生的就業(yè)和未來發(fā)展。中國的英語寫作教學有許多問題需要深入探討,引進國外優(yōu)秀的英語寫作教學與研究成果,對于更新我國的英語寫作教學觀念和方法,改革當前的英語寫作教學具有重要意義?! ∫?、國內外二語寫作研究概覽 第二語言寫作的教學與研究在國際上一直受到重視,國外的寫作教學研究十分活躍,以美國為例,美國普度(PuRDuE)大學每年定期召開二語寫作學術研討會,2008年6月6-7日召開的第7屆寫作年會的主題是:外語寫作教學:原理與實踐。二語寫作擁有自己的研究隊伍、研究機構、學術期刊。概括起來,國際二語寫作研究集中在四個領域:(1)寫作過程研究,重點關注認知操作模型、寫作構思策略、學習者的個體差異以及寫作過程的階段性變化;(2)寫作結果研究,采用文本分析、錯誤分析、對比分析、對比修辭分析、語料分析等方法;(3)寫作社會文化因素研究,影響寫作的社會結構、語域知識、動機和需求等因素;(4)寫作教學研究,如教學過程、學習策略、語言水平發(fā)展、課堂教學環(huán)節(jié)、寫作測試、網絡寫作課件開發(fā)等。國際二語寫作研究近期關注四個熱點:(1)批評對比修辭學,(2)母語寫作遷移,(3)寫作教師教育,(4)計算機輔助寫作與研究。
