博雅英语4（第二版）_李淑静总主编_9787301354940

古希腊、古罗马倡导的博雅教育（Liberal Education），旨在传授广博的知识，培养独立完善的人格和优雅的气质，使人不仅获得专业技能，而且陶冶品学才识，成为完全的人。与之相辉映，中华文化传统如《论语》之 “子曰：君子不器”，以及《大学》之“大学之道，在明明德，在亲民，在止于至善”，也强调人应该有完善的人格，不能像器具一样，只满足某一种用途。《博雅英语》作为北京大学教材建设委员会设立的大学英语教材改革项目，正是要达到这样的目的，将大学英语课程的工具性和人文性有机统一，使之作为高等学校人文教育的一部分，体现高等教育区别于基础教育的特点，以教材的思想性带动语言学习，不仅增强学生的英语综合应用能力和自主学习能力，而且发展学生的跨文化交际能力和批判性思维能力。《博雅英语》力图达到经典与时代的结合、西方文化与中华文化的互动、人文素养与科学精神的交融，彰显教育的根本——立德树人、使学生在批判性的英语学习中，吸收优秀的文化、观念和正确的价值观，培养跨文化国际视野和中国情怀，树立文化自觉和文化自信，未来成为中外文化交流及“讲好中国故事，传播好中国声音，阐释好中国特色”的重要力量。
