  • No disciplines have seized on professionalism with as much enthusiasm as the humanities. You can, Mr. Menand points out, become a lawyer in three years and a medical doctor in four. But the regular time it takes to get a doctoral degree in the humanities is nine years. Not surprisingly, up to half of all doctoral students in English drop out before getting their degrees.

    没有哪个学科像人文学科这样热衷于专业化。梅南先生指出,你可以用三年成为律师,用四年成为医生。但在人文学科获得博士学位的正常时间却是九年。毫不奇怪,多达一半的英语专业博士生在获得学位前就退学了。

  • The key to reforming higher education, concludes Mr. Menand, is to alter the way in which “the producers of knowledge are produced.” Otherwise, academics will continue to think dangerously alike, increasingly detached from the societies which they study, investigate and criticise. “Academic inquiry, at least in some fields, may need to become less exclusionary and more holistic.” Yet quite how that happens, Mr. Menand does not say.

    梅南先生总结道,改革高等教育的关键在于改变“知识生产者被培养出来”的方式。否则,学者们的思维将继续危险地趋同,与他们所研究、调查和批评的社会日益脱节。“至少在某些领域,学术探究可能需要减少排他性,变得更加全面。”然而,究竟如何做到这一点,梅南先生并没有说。

  • A toothy grin (especially when there were gaps or blackened teeth) lacked class: drunks, tramps, and music hall performers might gurn and grin with a smile as wide as Lewis Carroll’s gum-exposing Cheshire Cat, but it was not a becoming look for properly bred persons.

    露齿的笑(尤其是牙齿有缝隙或发黑时)显得缺乏格调:醉汉、流浪汉和杂耍剧场的演员可能会做鬼脸、咧嘴大笑,笑容宽得像刘易斯·卡罗尔笔下露出牙龈的柴郡猫,但对于有良好教养的人来说,这可不是得体的样子。
