STOP YOUR TAPE Section 4.
In this section you will hear introductory lecture to a course on South-East Asia. First read the summary of the lecture made by a student and look at questions 30 to 40. As you listen complete the summary, using no more than three words for each answer. The first one has been done for you as an example. My name is Paul Stange.I'm the coordinator of this course. It's called South-East Asian Traditions. I'm also the author of the study guide and course reader and you should have those in front of you. As well as these you'll need two textbooks for the course; there's the one by Osborne and there's another by Legge. I'll talk a bit more about the reading materials in a moment. Now if you haven't got these materials, you can buy the textbooks at the university book shop and you can collect the study guide and the course reader from me on your way out of the lecture. The purpose of this lecture is simply orientation. What I'm going to do is introduce myself, talk you through the course, and give you some additional advice--apart from in the study guide--on dealing with the various assignments for the course. First of all,the materials. You'll find the two textbooks very clear and they give a good,basic coverage of the history of the region. Most of the readings in the reader are fairly easy going, but I have to warm you that two of them are quite difficult. These are the readings by S mail and Bender. And,of these two,the one by Bender is perhaps the more challenging. But don't let that put you off, because understanding these two readings is important to help you develop a clearer understanding of the cultures. In other words they'll help you acquire greater sensitivity to the differences between the various cultures in the region. Now,the course itself. The course has multiple aims.It's primarily a history course. But it's not only a history course. It is,in most respects a cultural history course focusing on South-East Asia. Nevertheless the course is,as you'll see from the materials, an introduction to the South-East Asian studies components of the Asian studies program. In looking at the cultural history of South-East Asia there are two major influences to be considered: the Chinese and the Indian. It is important lot to forget the extensive influence that these two countries have had in the region. China has been trading throughout the region since at least the sixth century,
so many of its cultural and social traditions have influenced the countries in the area.And religious prac tices from India have helped form today's culture.So we'll be looking for the links and the connections
between traditional patterns and today's developments in the region. I think you can now begin to see how these past influences might form a background for the present-day social practices. And in the same way this course will form a basis or background for second and third year courses,with their focus on the modern period, and in particular the economic and political situation of the region. So that's the outline of the course. I'd like to go on now to look at what you have to do, you assignments and so on. That is the end of the Listening Test. You now have half a minute check your answers.
