翔游在西部高原上的黑色精灵

<正>黑颈鹤是我国特有的物种,也是唯一翔游在西部高原上的鹤类。它在云贵高原上越冬,青藏高原上繁殖,或深居简出,或成群嬉戏,或恬静文雅,或高歌炫舞,既神秘又公开地生活在这片广袤而神奇的土地上。在黑颈鹤的越冬地——贵州草海和云南大山包,流传着这样一句俗语:晚不过三月三,早不过九月九。这是对黑颈鹤迁徙时间的描述。意思是说,黑颈鹤离开越冬地的时间,最晚不会超过农历三月初三,而回到越冬地的时间则不早于九月初九。同样,在黑颈鹤的越冬     

Western Arrernte Pmere Kwetethe Spirits

This article explores the difference between the meaning and use of TGH Strehlow's term pmara kutata (his spelling) and of pmere kwetethe (modern spelling) in contemporary Western Arrernte society. The expression pmara kutata features prominently in TGH Strehlow's oeuvre. He defined pmara kutata, as the ‘centre of a local totemic clan’, ‘sacred site’ and the ‘everlasting home’ where an important local totemic ancestor originated and /or passed to his last rest. Interestingly enough the term pmara kutata or pmere kwetethe seems to have undergone a semantic shift. In contemporary Western Arrernte society pmere kwetethe is used to denote a range of spirit beings with different characters that dwell on and in the landscape. In English the expression pmere kwetethe is sometimes glossed as ‘the spirits of the land’ or ‘the invisible people‘.     

Contemporary French philosophy

Scholarship on the French Atlantic empire traditionally and uniquely focuses upon Africa as a source of slave labour for the American colonies. However, this article explores how, in the second half of the eighteenth century, Africa emerged as a viable alternative for colonial expansion. Uncertainties about a colonial future in the New World directed French expansionist attention away from the Americas and towards the African continent, expanding its role beyond a source of labour. The intellectual underpinnings for a transfer of empire first surfaced within the Physiocratic School of political economy. The article examines the emergence of such ideas and their reception within the colonial administration of the Ancien Régime. It also shows how expansion into Africa became central to the imperial agenda of the first French Republic. Exploring Africa as a substitute to colonial America helps expand the lens through which Africa is examined as part of the Atlantic World. It also reveals continuities between Ancien Régime colonialism and later French republican imperialism.     

顾莹:真实去记录第三极生灵

顾莹常挂在嘴边的一个词,就是真实。“真实是野生动物摄影的第一要素,其次才是美和科学。千万不要只为了追求所谓的美,而去伤害它们。”有人说她是最勇敢的女摄影师,能够从凶猛的棕熊脚下逃脱。有人说她是最善良的“荒野女猎人”,一直在用“野性”的镜头,喚起人们的“人性”。
