摘要
“大脑”是柏林自由大学于2005年开放使用的新语言学图书馆的绰号。这个名字不是指它的功能，而是建筑的室内外形式，这一点不是显而易见的，但通过更仔细地观察能发现建筑外壳组成了“大脑”头盖骨的形状,而室内曲线形的平台形式则令人联想起大脑的淘回。不仅“大脑”有绰号，它周围的大片建筑在几十年前就有了绰号：新图书馆也只能在它周围的建筑中才可以理解．即“Rostlaube”（德语的“铁锈桶”）。
The “Brain” is the nickname given to the new Philological Libray which opened its doors in September 2005 at Free University, Berlin. The name does not refer to the use of the building but rather to its exterior and interior form. Not immediately, but upon closer inspection, the outer shell resembles a cranium, the interior with its curved balconies is reminiscent of brain convolutions. Not only is the “Brain” wearing a nickname. The large structure surrounding it, bears a nickname since decades： The new library can only be understood within the context of its surrounding structure, the “Rostlaube” （rust bucket）.
