中岳汉三阙

中岳嵩山的三处汉代石阙,是我国现存年代较早的石阙,阙身的画象和镌刻文字为国内外历代金石学家所宝重,一九六一年国务院公布为全国重点文物保护单位(封底)。阙,是建造在城门、宫殿、祠庙、陵墓前的两个对称建筑物。是我国古代劳动人民在建筑工艺上的一项成就。古时“缺”和“阙”通用,两阙之间空缺,作为道路,所以,这种成双矗立的建筑物称为阙。这种建筑形式早在二千七百年前的周代就有了。

登封汉代三阙

阙,是我国古代建造在城门、宫殿、祠庙、陵墓前的两个对称建筑物,两物之间空缺,作为道路,故称之为"阙",古时"缺"和"阙"二字是通用的。阙的建筑形式早在距今二千七百年前的周代就有了,《诗经·郑风》中就有"纵我不往,子宁不来?挑兮达兮!在城阙兮"的记载。阙的用途主要是表示大门。城阙还可以登临瞭望、察看敌情,所以也有把阙称为"观"的。宫阙和城阙多置于皇宫门前和交通要道上,统治阶级还常常把封建王朝的法令、布告悬挂在上面,用以昭示国人。秦始皇统一中国后,曾在东海边上立石,以示秦     

先秦古都城门的装饰建筑研究——以阙与象魏为视角

"阙"是我国古代王都宫门或者城门之前的装饰建筑形式,是悬挂法令之处。阙最早出现在西周,直至春秋时期,只有周王室与鲁国的城门之前才有这种形式。战国时期,"阙"成为各个诸侯国都城门之前的建筑。战国中期,秦孝公十二年(公元前350年),商鞅按照魏阙的样式"筑冀阙、宫庭于咸阳"。冀,先秦时期指晋南;文中所说的"冀阙"就是立在魏国旧都安邑宫门之前的阙。从此我国古代的"阙"又有"冀阙""魏阙""象魏"之称。

Telling small stories: spaces of knowledge and the practice of geography

This article examines how the practice of learning geography, and the arenas in which knowledge-making takes place, can be usefully positioned within changing histories of the discipline. It contends that networks of action – understood through the intersection of social sites, subjects and sources – present a conceptual framework and narrative focus for the re-consideration of specific episodes from geography's past. The interventions made here are informed and illustrated by a 'small story' about the doing of geography. Based on different personal accounts, the story revives a series of events, encounters, dialogues and images dating back to the winter of 1951 at Glenmore Lodge, Scotland. This educational institution in the Cairngorm mountains offered children from urban areas the opportunity to learn field studies and the skills of 'outdoor citizenship'. Initially, the focus falls on Margaret Jack, a 14-year-old field-course participant. Her learning experiences are traced through personal letters, a diary and a field journal dating from that time, and her recent recollections of this event. Margaret's account dovetails with the story of her field studies instructor, Robin Murray. Robin's role is traced through his learning experiences as a geography undergraduate at Aberdeen University, and the recent recollections of Catriona Murray, his wife.     

Das Wissen der Schulden. Recht,Kulturtechnik und Alltagserfahrung im liberalen Kapitalismus

The Knowledge of Debt: Law, Media Technique, and Everyday Experience in Liberal Capitalism. Performing an object such as ‘the economy’ hinges on practices of formatting knowledge. The article proposes to look at such instituting moments in connection with social conflicts over the legitimate rules of exchange. This is exemplified by way of recounting the story of the codification of Swiss bankruptcy law in 1889. In order to homogenize the legal procedures of debt collection and bankruptcy, two subject categories were instituted: ‘merchants’ and ‘non-merchants’. These different categories were thought to account for the diverging temporalities and spaces of credit exchange in everyday economic life. The introduction of the commercial register, a media-technical apparatus, enabled a formal distinction between ‘merchants’ and ‘non-merchants’. However, this boundary was contested and proved to be porose.     

Two radiocarbon dates for freshwater shells from hierakonpolis: Archaeological and geological interpretations

Shells of two species of freshwater bivalve (Unio willcocksi Bullen Newton and Etheria elliptica Lamarck) from the predynastic Gerzean (Nagada II) Decorated Tomb at Hierakonpolis, Egypt have given dates of 5000±90 bp for the tomb, and 12,900±120 bp for an episode of Nile terrace accumulation (correlated here with the Sahaba-Darau aggradation event). The archaeological and geological significance of these results is discussed, together with an outline of problems associated with radiocarbon dating of shell. Comparisons are made with the few other radiocarbon dates available for the Predynastic period in Egypt and possible reasons for the presence of shells in the tomb are considered.     

Some chronological implications of a fossil molluscan assemblage from a neolithic site at Brook,Kent, England

The later post-glacial history of a valley in the chalk escarpment near Brook, Kent, is described, based on molluscan stratigraphy, archaeological evidence and radio-carbon dating. Differences in size and colour banding, respectively, of fossil and living representatives of two species of land snails, Pomatias elegans (Müller) and Cepaea nemoralis (L.), are correlated with climatic change during the post-glacial period. The problems of the use of fossil shells of these species as samples for radiocarbon dating are discussed.     

China's Dynamic Industrial Sector: The Internet Industry

A Singapore-based economic geographer explores and analyzes the spatially uneven evolution of the Internet industry in China, arguing that the country's immense regional disparity in the provision of Internet services is best explained by the interplay of place- and path-dependence. The author demonstrates how the highly uneven regional endowments in relevant industrial and entrepreneurial resources have led to the substantial and persistent regional imbalance within China's emerging "new economy." His initial survey of the country's 100 leading Internet content providers (firms), identified from a listing of ca. 11,700 commercial websites, is selectively augmented to reflect an increase of over 70 million Internet users in 2007, reaching a total of 253 million in June 2008, and thus overtaking the United States as the world's largest Internet market.
