作者通过对传统的语言文化观之回顾及批判,试图从英语的全球化和地方化的角度解读新型的语言文化观。这种新型的语言文化观,肯定英语的全球化不会剥夺英语的本土文化内涵,反而体现了英语语言文化与当地语言文化的一种互动与融合,也必将使英语成为学习外来文化的工具。 Through reviewing and criticizing the traditional view of language and culture, the author attempts to interpret the new concept of language and culture from the perspective of globalization and localization of English. This new concept of language and culture affirms that the globalization of English will not deprive native English culture of English. Instead, it embodies an interaction and integration between English language culture and local language culture and will surely make English a tool for learning foreign cultures .
