Abstract

Heuberger 2003 analyzed monolingual English (learners’) dictionaries with regard to anthropocentrism, an ideology that regards nature primarily from the viewpoint of its usefulness to human beings. Focusing on reference works published in the mid-1990s, that article identified strong anthropocentric biases concerning animals within definitions. 20 years later, the present article revisits the learners’ dictionaries examined in said study and investigates whether the treatment of animals has become more objective in the current editions.
单语英语学习者词典中的人类中心主义--再探讨
Heuberger 2003 年分析了单语英语(学习者)词典中的人类中心主义,这是一种主要从自然对人类有用的角度看待自然的意识形态。这篇文章以 20 世纪 90 年代中期出版的参考书为重点,在定义中发现了有关动物的强烈人类中心主义偏见。20 年后,本文重新审视了上述研究中考察的学习者词典,并调查了当前版本中对动物的处理是否变得更加客观。
