围绕着科技与文化在社会中的各自作用,在阿诺德与赫胥黎之间、利维斯与斯诺之间先后产生了两场争论。这些争论的意义在于,它们对科技力量构成了一种文化上的制约,防止了科学话语霸权的出现,维护了英国社会良性的语言生态。鉴于中国对科学技术的盲目崇拜,这些争论对我们启示颇多。 Around the respective roles of science, technology and culture in society, there have been two controversies between Arnold and Huxley and between Leavis and Snow. The significance of these debates is that they constitute a cultural constraint on science and technology forces, preventing the emergence of scientific discourse hegemony and preserving the benign linguistic ecology of British society. In view of China's blind worship of science and technology, these debates enlighten us a lot.
