美國哥倫比亞大學出版社２３日在華盛頓舉行了《如何讀中國文學》系列叢書啟動儀式。這套叢書由美國伊利諾伊大學教授蔡宗齊和北京大學教授袁行霈共同主編，中美兩國學者共同參與。

蔡宗齊表示，編寫這套叢書的初衷在於，打破西方漢學界中國古典詩歌教學中學術研究和日常教學之間、翻譯作品和原文之間、文學教學和語言教學之間、文字美和音韻美之間的四道鴻溝。

據介紹，該系列叢書計劃出版十冊，主要面向母語為非漢語的本科生和研究生，目前已發行《如何讀中國詩歌：導讀選集》《如何讀中國詩歌：語言教本》和《中國詩歌文化：先秦到唐》三冊。

此外，哥大出版社還將出版《如何讀中國小説》《如何讀中國戲曲》《如何讀中國散文》《如何讀中國文學批評》四部文學導讀集，以及三部配套的語言教本，全套叢書計劃於２０２０年出齊。

哥大出版社成立於１８９３年，是美國知名學術出版機構之一。

導讀集分為六個部分，提供一百四十多個詩、騷、賦、詞和曲詩的例子，突出了中國詩歌豐富多樣的主題、形式和韻律特徵，每一章節都由專門研究特定時期或流派的學者撰寫的。詩歌以中文和英文呈現，並在一旁附註拼音音調，有對中國語言特徵和詩歌習俗的解釋，以及閲讀建議。這些詩歌的錄音可以在線免費獲得。這些特點促進讀者與中國古詩文本的密切接觸，並幫助其從中獲得審美享受和洞察力。

In this "guided" anthology, experts lead students through the major genres and eras of Chinese poetry from antiquity to the modern time. The volume is divided into 6 chronological sections and features more than 140 examples of the best shi, sao, fu, ci, and qu poems. A comprehensive introduction and extensive thematic table of contents highlight the thematic, formal, and prosodic features of Chinese poetry, and each chapter is written by a scholar who specializes in a particular period or genre. Poems are presented in Chinese and English and are accompanied by a tone-marked romanized version, an explanation of Chinese linguistic and poetic conventions, and recommended reading strategies. 

Sound recordings of the poems are available online free of charge. These unique features facilitate an intense engagement with Chinese poetical texts and help the reader derive aesthetic pleasure and insight from these works as one could from the original.
