…… 随着国际交流的增多和我国高等院校双语化教学的趋势,为景观设计、风景园林等专业师生编写一本题材对路、语言难度适中、能反映西方现代风景园林理论和实践概况的专业英语教材,已经成为一种需要。
本教材主要供景观设计(包括风景园林、环境艺术设计和园林设计等)相关专业本科生和研究生使用,同时也适用于具有大学英语四级水平或相当水平的专业人员。本教材旨在进一步提高他们对西方现代风景园林基本情况、常见理论和经典作品的了解;提高英语应用水平,特别是查找、阅读和理解风景园林专业英文文献,以及用英文交流专业内容的实际能力。
本书的编写主要遵循了以下几个原则。
(1)注重选择经典材料。本教材选材范围涉及西方现代风景园林发展有重大影响的名**篇,重要英文教材、**设计师和**作品、权威机构发布的宣言和公告,在其中选择语言难度适中,符合我国高等教育实际情况的篇章。
(2)突出展现西方现代风景园林概况。本教材全面介绍西方风景园林学科的发展历史、主要理论、代表人物和经典作品。编者主要选择了20世纪70年代初到90年代末的内容,也选择了部分21世纪以来的思想和作品,以及少量能反映学科和职业发展历史的60年代以前的经典篇章。本教材除作为专业英语教材之外,也适于用作西方现代景观设计双语教学教材,以及西方园林史和园林规划设计等课程的教学参考书。
(3)力求从实际出发,注重教材的实用性和针对性。考虑到我国高等院校风景园林专业英语教学的一般状况,对有一定难度的语言点做了注解,增加了背景情况介绍、获取扩展阅读信息的途径等。文后问题和作业注重和我国风景园林规划设计实际问题的结合,以及从英文查询到英文专业论文写作的循序渐进训练方法。
