吃是一个英文单词

Eating is generally understood as a human need that people satisfy in diverse ways. Eating, however, is also an English word. Other languages, using other words, order reality differently: they may fuse eating with breathing, or distinguish chupar from comer. Anthropologists flag such differences by leaving a few of their words untranslated, but what language do we think in? This isn’t necessarily English. We may be linguistically closer to those whose practices we study: them. Against this background, Eating Is an English Word argues that social scientists should let go of the dream of universal concepts. Our analytical terms had better vary. Annemarie Mol and her coauthors exemplify this in a series of material semiotic inquiries into eating practices.


吃通常被理解为人满足各种需求的方式。然而,吃也是一个英语单词。其他语言用不同的词语组织现实:他们可能将吃与呼吸融合起来,或者区分chupar和comer。人类学家通过保留一些未翻译的词汇来指出这些差异,但我们在想什么语言?这不一定就是英语。我们可能更接近那些我们研究实践的人。在这一背景下,《吃是一个英语词》一书主张社会科学家应放弃普遍概念的梦想。我们的分析术语必须有所不同。安纳·莫尔及其合著者通过一系列物质符号学探究来体现这一点,这些探究涉及饮食习惯。
