英華傳奇 : 千里尋找香港字

https://www.mpweekly.com/culture/%E9%A6%99%E6%B8%AF%E5%AD%97-%E9%91%84%E5%AD%97-%E6%B4%BB%E5%AD%97%E5%8D%B0%E5%88%B7-169188

“鑄造西式中文活字的先驅者,是英國倫敦傳道會傳教士戴爾。戴爾先在一八二八年前往馬六甲的英華書院籌備鑄字,其生產正式在一八三五年展開。一八四三年,戴爾客死異鄉,同年英華書院連同其印刷設備、字模字粒遷至香港。”

“受益於香港字,英華書院校長理雅各出版《中國經典》,德國漢學家羅存德排印香港第一本兩文三語的《英華字典》,王韜創辦世上首家華資中文日報《循環日報》,數之不盡的重要刊物得以誕生,推進中國現代化進程。而翻鑄出售的活字,不但出售到全中國,更廣及世界各地,促進中西文化交流。”

“一讀內容,阿翁便知,「十九世紀的香港,只有英華書院的明體四號字」”

【DSE 摘星校友】林思行

英華書院應屆DSE考生林思行(右)今年以5科34分的佳績,成功升讀心儀的中大地理與資源管理學系,而中文獲5**無疑有助他得償心願。
 
這位獲中文科全卷(卷一至卷三)5**佳績的校友周二(13日)更在《明報》《星笈中文》中,與年輕讀者分享他的「摘星」心得。
 
看林思行作文卷《微笑以對》的大綱便可知道,他確曾有一番經營:他強記歷史人物的生平和名言,才能夠引项羽、李白、蘇軾等古人為例,並恰當運用到論述中。
 
花間採蜜,萃取提煉;成如容易,卻也艱辛?林思行的高中班主任兼中文老師胡詠怡(左)憶述他中六那年勤背例子,同時多作多寫,作文成績才得以突飛猛進。
 
我們固然毋須再考文憑試,但林思行積極備戰,精準應對的做事態度,對大家豈不也是人生摘星的一個啓發?
