王力先生外语学习理念的叙事分析

A Narrative Analysis of Wang Li’s Ideas on Foreign Language Learning

作为杰出的语言学家,王力先生不仅在汉语研究上著述颇丰,而且在外语学习及研究方面也卓有成就,他精通法语、越南语、英语等多种语言,但长期以来学界对王力先生外语学习理念的分析研究却不多。为此,借助叙事视角,文章先简要梳理王力先生外语学习及研究的经历,再以叙事角度为出发点,从四个方面分析其外语学习的理念,即:外语学习需改变自己的语言习惯、需注重感性认识和理性认识的结合、需有知难不怕难的决心和毅力、需兼顾阅读文献和语言研究的需要。

Wang Li,a well-known linguist in China,does not only have a prolific career in Chinese language studies, but also makes great achievement in foreign language learning and studies. He has a good command of many foreign languages, such as French,English and Vietnamese,but paucity of research has been conducted to study his ideas on foreign language learning. This paper first timelines Wang Li’s experience of learning foreign languages and then makes a narrative analysis of his ideas on foreign language learning, that is, to change the habit of learning foreign languages, to integrate perceptual knowledge with conceptual knowledge, to stay persistent and perseverant,and to use language in reading and research.
