I wanted to start the year with a blog post that reflected my 2010 and perhaps talk a little about my 2011, while i recuperate from my 双牙之行. However, I have decided to do some documenting job instead. Have been reading and googling and digressing on some knowledge that I have came across. So the next few posts will just go into the interesting weblinks section. Count it as a documentation of my 2010 too.
First to be linked would be the book that I am currently reading : When Languages Die.
I am becoming a big fan of K.David Harrison! Remember the film "The Linguists", which inspired one of my first post when i started my MSc? Seriously, I love theoreticians who see the real world and talk about real things out there in the world. His knowledge as a theoretician and his intellectual pursue is more than just that. The documentation work that he and his team do may not reverse this trend but it adds on to knowledge of the world and reshape how our history, how our knowledge of human civilisation and even human cognitive processes might be written.
Okie, more links to appear...
