藏传佛教造像的几个类型

大乘佛教宣称三世十方有无数佛,并由此将佛推向神话。佛教传入藏区青藏高原时,大乘佛教已成定势,在此基础上产生的藏传佛教自然拥有许多佛。特别是藏传佛教形成时期正是佛教金刚乘极盛时期,藏传佛教在其形成过程中充分吸收了佛教金刚乘教义,因而在藏传佛教中产生了庞大的佛、菩萨、护法神等佛教神像体系。

清末西藏新政述论

清末西藏新政是在英、俄等国加快侵略西藏的步伐、清政府统治西藏面临困难的情况下实施的。政治上调整行政体制和整肃吏治,经济上发展实业,军事上训练新军和加强兵备,化上兴办学堂和创办报纸,是清末西藏新政的主要内容。西藏实施新政后,政府机构的办事效率有所提高,农牧工矿和交通电信业得到发展,近代化军队产生,近代化得到传播,清政府加强了对西藏的统治,维护了对西藏的主权,有利于抵御外来势力的侵略。帝国主义国家的干涉和破坏,清政府的腐败,新政的某些措施脱离藏族地区的实际,最终使西藏新政归于失败。这一切给人们留下了深刻的启示和教训。

西藏西部壁画风格探析

本文对11世纪至16世纪西藏西部壁画艺术的发展轮廓作一简要概述,探讨它们与西藏中部地区同时期壁画艺术的不同风格特点。笔者所选择的范例,其用意主要在于揭示西藏西部独特的绘画语汇,它们在许多方面都与西藏中部的绘画风格具有显著的区别。本文也期望对消除目前流行的一些关于西藏西部绘画风格方面的误解有所助益,这种误解存在于各个方面,例如一些学者之所以产生误解是由于西藏西部的大量资料证明,约13世纪末镀金的青铜器具有明显的西藏中部的风格所导致。
