The order of China’s dynasties can be a complicated puzzle for students of Chinese history. The Harvard professors William Kirby and Peter Bol offer this trick: a song that names the major dynasties, the Republic of China and the People’s Republic of China (or as the lyrics have it, “Mao Zedong”) to the tune of “Fr re Jacques。”
對于學(xué)習(xí)中國歷史的學(xué)生們來說，中國朝代的順序可謂是終極難題。哈佛大學(xué)的兩位教授維廉 柯比(中文名柯偉林)和包弼德給大家想出了這個妙招：用法國兒歌《雅克兄弟》的曲子改編歌來記憶中國過去主要的朝代、中華民國和中國人民共和國(視頻歌詞中用的是“毛澤東”)。
小編注：法國兒歌《雅克兄弟》Fr re Jacques 就是兒歌《兩只老虎》的法語原版。
The singing professors are teaching a free course on China through HarvardX, the university’s branch of the nonprofit online learning program edX. “If you sing this song once a day, you will always remember the sequence of Chinese dynasties,” Professor Bol says on the video. “You will also drive your friends and family crazy,” replies Professor Kirby。
視頻中這兩位唱著歌的教授目前正在HarvardX 網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程中教授有關(guān)中國的公開課，HarvardX是哈佛大學(xué)在非盈利在線教育項(xiàng)目edX平臺上發(fā)布的網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程。視頻中我們可以聽到包弼德教授說：“如果你每天唱一遍這首歌，你肯定能記住中國朝代的順序”�？聜チ纸淌趧t回答說：“那你朋友和你家人估計(jì)得被你唱瘋了吧。”
