INTERCULTURAL INTERACTION- A Mulitidisciplinary Approach to Intercultural Comunication (Helen Spencer-Oatey and Peter Franklin)

General Editors’ Preface

Research and Practice in Applied Linguistics is an international book series from Palgrave Macmillan which brings together leading researchers and teachers in Applied Linguistics to provide readers with the knowledge and tools they need to undertake their own practice related research. Books in the series are designed for students and researchers in Applied Linguistics, TESOL, Language Education and related subject areas, and for language professionals keen to extend their research experience. Every book in this innovative series is designed to be user-friendly, with clear illustrations and accessible style. The quotations and definitions of key concepts that punctuate the main text are intended to ensure that many, often competing, voices are heard. Each book presents a concise historical and conceptual overview of its chosen field, identifying many lines of enquiry and findings, but also gaps and disagreements. It provides readers with an overall framework for further examination of how research and practice inform each other, and how practitioners can develop their own problem-based research.

The focus throughout is on exploring the relationship between research and practice in Applied Linguistics. How far can research provide answers to the questions and issues that arise in practice? Can research questions that arise and are examined in very specific circumstances be informed by, and inform, the global body of research and practice? What different kinds of information can be obtained from different research methodologies? How should we make a selection between the options available, and how far are different methods compatible with each other? How can the results of research be turned into practical action? The books in this series identify some of the key researchable areas in the field and provide workable examples of research projects, backed up by details of appropriate research tools and resources. Case studies and exemplars of research and practice are drawn on throughout the books. References to key institutions, individual research lists, journals and professional organizations provide starting points for gathering information and embarking on research. The books also include annotated lists of key works in the field for further study.

The overall objective of the series is to illustrate the message that in Applied linguistics there can be no good professional practice that isn’t based on good research, and there can be no good research that isn’t informed by practice.

MEMBACA NALAR STUDI AGAMA SAKRAL DAN PROFAN KARYA MERCIA ELIADE

oleh : Wisnu Wirandi Buku “ Sakral Dan Profan ” adalah sebuah dokumen yang sangat mendasar tentang pemahaman manusia tentang agama dan bagaimana ia menguji kualitas hidupnya. Mircea Eliade (1907-1986) tidak membuang-buang waktu dengan berupaya menjelaskan atau mendefinisikan pengalaman yang sakral dalam kerangka disiplin-disiplin yang lain. Misalnya, yang sakral sebagai sebuah pengalaman psikologis (Campbell) atau yang sakral sebagai sebuah fenomena sosiologis (Burkert). Sebaliknya, ia menganalisa yang sakral sebagai yang sakral. Eliade menunjukkan bagaimana ruang dan waktu yang sakral adalah sungguh-sungguh ruang dan waktu yang riil, nyata, permanen dan abadi; kebalikan dengan ruang dan waktu yang labil, selalu berubah-ubah dari dunia profan. Kalangan  homo religiusus  (orang-orang tradisional) menghidupkan kembali kebaikan-kebaikkan primordial dari dewa-dewa dan ritus-ritusnya, tentu saja tidak seperti manusia modern, dalam semua tingkah lakunya, karena tindakan-...

Allan P. Merriam, The Anthropology Of Music Capter XI, “Use and Functions”

(Allan P. Merriam) Gambar diunduh dari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_P._Merriam A.Merriam, The Anthropology Of Music Capter XI, “Use and Functions”                 Kegunaan (use) dan fungsi (function) music merupakan masalah yang sangat penting dalam etnomusikologi, karena hal ini menyangkut makna musik, tidak hanya fakta-fakta mengenai music. Tentu saja, dalam etnomusikologi kita selalu berusaha untuk mengumpulkan fakta mengenai musik. Tetapi lebih dari itu, kita ingin mengetahui pula efek / dampak music terhadap manusia, dan kita ingin mengerti bagaimana efek tersebut digasilkan.                 Menurut Merriam, para etnomusikologi sering-sering memakai istilah ‘kegunaan’ dan ‘fungsi’ secara rancu, bahkan para antropolog kadangkala berbuat demikian. Namun, kedua gagasan tersebut harus dibedakan satu s...
