澳大學生新書展示澳門人文景觀

澳門大學社會科學學院傳播系舉行學生畢業作品《散步不是風花雪月》(《傳人類2024》)新書發佈會。學生期望散步成為閱讀城市的一種方式,顛覆傳統的學習與認知,將目光帶到城市的流動之中。

《散步不是風花雪月》包括“生計”、“迷醉”、“扎根”、“采風”、“一隅”五個欄目,共20篇文章;通過採訪人物、專家學者及參閱古老文獻、舊報紙,透過五條別樹一幟的散步路線,講述澳門工業、娛樂業、東南亞華人社區、文化、九澳村落的前世今生等。

該書編輯、澳大傳播系學生鄺子洋表示,今年的出版刊物有別於以往的雜誌形式,設計出一本便携的書本,從中摸索把城市放進書本的可能性,勾畫街角的風景和痕跡。澳大校友蘇宏益表示,將來會親自走入書中的路線。

《散步不是風花雪月》將於二月始派往澳門各大圖書館,歡迎感興趣人士借閲。電子版本可瀏覽https://online.fliphtml5.com/nflqs/abhx/

《傳人類》是澳大社會科學學院傳播系大四學生的畢業作品,從2001年第一期出版至今已累計出版22期。《傳人類》關注澳門社會和文化議題,反映了澳大學生對澳門的觀察、理解與關懷。

UM students launch new book, showcasing human and cultural landscape in Macao

Students from the Department of Communication at the University of Macau (UM) held a book launch event for their capstone graduation project titled City Walk in Macau (Communicator 2024). Through this publication, the students aimed to challenge traditional learning approaches and mindsets, thus promoting strolling as an effective way to study the city of Macao and drawing attention to the act of walking in cities.

City Walk in Macau consists of 20 articles divided into five sections: Livelihood, Intoxication, Roots, Culture, and Corner. Through interviews with ordinary citizens, experts and scholars, as well as in-depth readings and analysis of old newspapers and historical documents, the students present articles that unveil stories about the industry, entertainment industry, Southeast Asian Chinese community, culture, and Ká Hó village in Macao, all through the lens of five distinct walking paths.

Elory Kuang, editor and student from the Department of Communication, highlighted that this year’s publication differs from the previous magazine format as it is presented as a portable book. The book includes sketches of landscapes and traces of street corners, allowing readers to carry it while exploring the city—a symbol of ‘city in the book’. UM alumnus Danny Su expressed his intention to visit the routes detailed in the book.

Starting from February, City Walk in Macau will be distributed to different libraries in Macao. Interested individuals are welcome to borrow the book. The electronic version can be viewed at https://online.fliphtml5.com/nflqs/abhx/.

Communicator is the capstone graduation project for fourth-year students of the Department of Communication in UM’s Faculty of Social Sciences. Since its inception in 2001, a total of 22 issues have been published. The publication explores various social and cultural issues in Macao, reflecting students’ observations, understanding, and affection for Macao.
