我先讲两个故事,这些故事让我觉得和今天中国电影所谓的文化自觉、中国故事以及在世界电影中的中国形象,似乎有某种联系。国际学术对话的语言不对等第一个故事是我在国内出席一个大概百人规模的国际学术会议,在这个会议上有七位来自欧美的学者,他们使用的会议语言是英语。第一天是他们的演讲,所以大会安排的工作语言是英文,但是没有安排翻译。换句话说,他假定与会的中国学者都应该掌握英文,可以用英文介入到学术的对话环境中去。 Let me start with two stories that make me feel that there seems to be some connection with the so-called cultural consciousness of Chinese films today, the Chinese stories, and the image of China in world cinema. The Language of International Academic Dialogue Is Not Equivalent The first story was that I attended an international conference about 100 people in China. There were seven scholars from Europe and the United States who used the conference language in English. The first day was their speech, so the working language arranged by the conference was in English, but no translation was arranged. In other words, he assumes that all Chinese scholars attending the conference should master English and be able to intervene in the academic dialogue environment in English.
