　　留學(xué)個人陳述(一)

　　PERSONAL STATEMENT

　　***

　　The reason why I want to study MSc in Social Anthropology initially stemmed from my interest in Folk Literature, a module of BA in Chinese Linguistics and Literature I was learning in the third academic year at Hebei University. For the first time, I was aware of the interior meaning of those folk stories, proverbs, and songs. It motivated me to pursue the study of master programme in folklore at Beijing Normal University. The Institute of Folklore and Cultural Anthropology I am currently studying at holds the matchless calibers and research results in China. As most of my professors have overseas education experience, I get ample chance to know the advanced foreign system of education, as well as the studying life.

　　Furthermore, well is known that The United Kingdom has a long-established reputation on education of anthropology. Many of the required texts in my master specialty, i.e. folklore, are written by British, including Edward B. Tylor, Sir James George Frazer, Bronislaw Malinowski, Mary Douglas, and Jack Goody. I believe, for everyone who aims to receive superb training in anthropology, UK is the very place where they can realize their dreams.

　　The three-year master programme I am studying has modules pertinent to bodylore, feminism, marginal population, popular belief, and oral tradition, allowing me to acquire initial understanding of research objectives and approaches in folklore. Until now, I have also involved myself in several research projects, such as Study on Inheritors of Acrobatics and Sports (No. 07JJD740066), a sub-project of Study on Inheritors of Intangible Cultural Heritage, conducted by Institute of Chinese Intangible Cultural Heritage, Sun Yat-Sen University, and, Study on Mouton Cangyan Temple Flair (No. JJRZ2009028), a sub-project of Chinese Festivals Records, authorized by the national social science fund. Both of them entailed substantial fieldwork, which cultivated me with well-developed abilities of communication and

　　teamwork, date collection and analysis, in addition to writing and thinking skills. During these researches, I developed sound relationships with several tutors and many PHD students. They are engaged in varied fields and enjoying in the pursuit of academic objectives. It motivates me to plan my career.

　　My main research interests lie in several specialized areas in anthropology, including Folk Narrative, Food ways, and Urban Studies. The London School of Economics and Political Science, as one of the most advanced providers of research on anthropology, offers a wide range of projects by which I have been deeply attracted, apart from a rich and stimulating learning environment created by its high academic caliber and varied backgrounds of students. Virtually, over studying MSc in Social Anthropology, I long for studying the PHD program, and after that, I plan to initiate a career at research institutes or universities. By this, I try to introduce the research interests and orientation in anthropology to China, and to apply the research approaches to specific subjects in the society, considering that, anthropology researches in China currently have no significant global effect.

　　Thank you and best regards,

　　我之所以想學(xué)社會人類學(xué)碩士，首先源于我對民間文學(xué)的興趣，這是我在河北大學(xué)第三學(xué)年學(xué)習(xí)的中國語言學(xué)和文學(xué)的一個模塊。我第一次意識到這些民間故事、諺語和歌曲的內(nèi)在含義。這促使我追求北京師范大學(xué)民俗學(xué)碩士課程的學(xué)習(xí)。在民俗學(xué)與文化人類學(xué)研究所我現(xiàn)就讀于擁有無與倫比的人才和研究成果在中國。由于我的大部分教授都有海外教育經(jīng)驗，所以我有充分的機會了解國外先進的教育制度，以及學(xué)習(xí)生活。
