Liah Greenfeld

利亚·格林菲尔德在艺术、经济、历史、语言文学、哲学、政治、宗教和科学等问题上发表了大量文章，并澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究了英国/英国、法国、德国、以色列、日本、荷兰、俄罗斯/苏联和美国的文化。 Upon the publication of 民族主义：通往现代性的五条道路 (Harvard University Press, 1992), she has emerged as a preeminent authority on nationalism, a distinction reinforced by the publication of 资本主义精神：民族主义与经济增长 (Harvard University Press, 2001). On the difference between Greenfeld’s work, considered the one major alternative to the dominant paradigms in political, historical, and economic sociology, and other approaches see Charles Tilly, 身份、边界和社会关系, Boulder, London: Paradigm Press, 2005, ch.1.

格林菲尔德教授于1982年获得耶路撒冷希伯来大学社会学和社会人类学系的博士学位。 就在那年秋天，她在美国芝加哥大学学院担任博士后讲师，这是她在美国的第一个教学职位。 此后，她于1985年至1994年在哈佛大学担任社会科学助理和约翰·l·勒布副教授。 1994年，格林菲尔德加入波士顿大学，担任政治学和社会学教授。 在不同时期，她曾在r.p.i.、麻省理工学院和巴黎高等社会科学澳门威尼斯人注册网站研究学院担任访问学者。 She has also been a recipient of Olin, Earhart, and N.R.C. fellowships, a member of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, New Jersey, and a Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars in Washington, D.C. In 2002, she received the Kagan Prize from The Historical Society for the best book in European History (资本主义精神.) 2004年，她被选为伦敦经济学院的盖尔纳讲座（Gellner lecture）讲师。 格林菲尔德澳门威尼斯人注册民族主义的著作已被翻译成10种语言，并吸引了源源不断的受其影响的访问学者到波士顿大学在她的指导下学习。 （仅2010-2011年，她就被邀请指导6名访问学者：3名来自中国，1名来自法国，1名来自保加利亚，1名来自巴西。） In 2009, the translation of 民族主义 into Russian was included in Glavnye Knigi 2009 Goda (Most Important Books of 2009). The translation of 资本主义精神has been particularly influential in China and in Asia more generally. 2010年5月，他被香港岭南大学聘为杰出兼职教授。

Since delivering the 2004 Gellner Lecture, titled “民族主义 and the Mind,” Greenfeld’s teaching and research has increasingly concentrated on the mind in the context of culture, which has led her to her current interests in neuroscience, psychiatry, mental disease, and the comparative study of creative imagination. 2008年，她被伯明翰阿拉巴马大学授予爱尔兰杰出访问学者奖，并发表了题为“疯狂与现代性：心灵的钥匙？”” on her new theory of mental disease (in particular, schizophrenia and manic-depressive illness) in modern society. 此前的爱尔兰奖得主包括丹尼尔·丹尼特（Daniel Dennett）和斯蒂芬·平克（Stephen Pinker），以及著名的认知心理学家和神经科学家。 The difference between her approach, which in a 2005 essay she has named historical or sociological 唯心主义 – not to be confused with psychological or philosophical 唯心主义s – and the approaches such as Dennett’s or Pinker’s is discussed on www.mindofmodernity.com，由David Phillippi建立的博客（英国大学，2007年）。

In another life–before she moved with her parents from Russia to Israel in 1972–she tried her hand at being, first, a child-prodigy, playing violin on TV at the age of 7, and then a poet, receiving the Krasnodar Region’s Second Prize for it (and a bust of Pushkin) at 16 and publishing a collection of poems, under a properly Russified alias in Komsomol’skaya Pravda.
