座談會簡介冼麗婷寫過無數中外人物訪問,包括史學鴻儒余英時,末代港督彭定康及著名作家白先勇。 波斯尼亞小酒店老闆、海南慰安婦、被IS斬首的日本記者後藤健二的母親,痛苦中願向她敞開心靈。跟人說話,心裏謙卑。寫一個人,氣度高貴。講座上,她將會和教育心理學家陸秀霞一起以朗讀及音樂,演繹文字人生;並會分享人物寫作的感動與重要意義。天涯咫尺,總有一張臉孔,在你心裏如歌,要麼你心動寫下去,要麼你心痛寫下去。人的威力,如此。座談會即場發售冼麗婷新作《見字如見人》,歡迎向作者索取親筆簽名。 講者介紹冼麗婷曾任職《蘋果日報》十七年,她把專訪過的本地及世界人物結集為《見字如見人》,如題,她對文字有信念,對人有希望。從小,她視每一次作文為重要表演,小學六年班的一天,為了不交「行貨」,詐病不上學。近年寫人物長文,為了趕報館死線,每天沐浴兩次的她,試過三天不洗澡。冼麗婷在香港樹仁大學新聞系畢業後一直當港聞記者,並在香港大學完成比較文學本科及碩士課程。她喜歡做麵包,聽到天然酵母吃得「卟卟」聲就想笑。主持人: 陸秀霞博士,教育心理學家,中文大學教育心理學系專業顧問出席此座談會的科大同學可獲HLTH1010課程中"Activities"單元的"Wellness and Personal Enrichment"1小時學習時數。同學須於入場及離場時出示學生證以作記錄。名額有限,歡迎校外人士參加,請各位報名留座。如有查詢,請聯絡 Ms. Alice Ho (lbalice@ust.hk; 2358-6707)

About the TalkDr. Susanna Ho of the Center for Language Education at HKUST will discuss and compare her two novels: Mother’s Tongue: A Story of Forgiving and Forgetting and her very recent, Who’s that Ant? Whose Dead End?. She will explore how she sees the world through the eyes of the main characters: a Nameless Woman, addressed as "Mum" in the first and an Ant in the other.In this book talk, she will share how she makes sense of her world through writing. Upon reading a section from the book, she will illustrate the source of inspiration, be it from a personal or world event, or a book that she was reading at the time of writing. We hope the presentation will illuminate both Dr. Hos work and the writing process itself.Copies of the books will be available for sale and signing.About the AuthorDr. Susanna Ho received her B.A. from University of Manitoba (majoring in English literature), her M.A. (Teaching English as a Second Language) from City University of Hong Kong, a PG Certificate of Education from the University of Hong Kong, and her PhD from Macquarie University, Sydney. At HKUST she teaches English for Academic Purposes and English for Specific Purposes at both postgraduate and undergraduate levels.Through her research in second language writing, interdisciplinary discourse, and autonomy in language learning, she explored her subjects’ writing practices and writing experiences and found each had a story to tell. It was through recounting their stories that her own childhood passion for writing was rekindled. Her first novel, Mothers Tongue: A Story of Forgiving and Forgetting was published in the USA in 2013 and her latest Who’s that Ant? Whose Dead End? is due out in early 2016.For enquiries, please contact Victoria Caplan at 2358-6756.
