苏南抗日根据地货币珍品──惠农银行券

苏南抗日根据地货币珍品──惠农银行券童子玉,马汉民惠农银行成立于１９４２年１２月,是我党创建的苏南抗日根据地的第一家银行,行址设在苏南丹阳延陵镇。１９４３年１０月,由于日军扫荡,战争形势紧张,惠农银行因此停办。惠农银行曾发行过货币（简称惠农券）,但由于该行历时不到一年,发行货币时间短,加上惠农券后来基本全部被收回销毁,故遗留下来的实物几乎是凤毛麟角。上海人民出版社出版的《中国历代货币大系·新民主主义革命时期人民货币》及江苏科学技术出版社出版的《华中敌后货币》二本专著中,虽然都记载了惠农银行,但都因没有钞票实物而没有附上惠农银行发行的货币,不免使人感到相当的遗憾。中国人民银行中国钱币博物馆珍藏有惠农券伍元、拾元各一种,这是研究苏南抗日根据地货币的珍贵实物资料。我们特将其披露,以飨广大读者。伍元券（图上）：道林纸质,横式,红色,票幅１３．２×７．６厘米,正面上方印有行名“惠农银行”四字,行名两侧是号码,右边为农村小景图,右下角有行长蓝色签字,左边有中文币值“伍元”两字,左下方有“中华民国三十一年印”字样,四角有大写中文“伍”字,下方花边框内满印中文“惠农银行伍元”字样。背面印有花纹图案,上方有英文行名“ＴＨＥＢ

Advances in Morphometrics in Archaeobotany

ABSTRACT

Morphometric analysis offers an alternative or augmentation to traditional archaeobotanical methods to address differences within and between plant species and their remains, refining and enhancing taxonomic resolution. Morphometrics, the measurement of size and shape, and the multivariate statistical analysis of generated quantitative variables, have long played a major role in biological research, including plant taxonomy and systematics, although its application in archaeobotany is relatively recent. Over the last few decades, there has been an increasing interest in the use of morphometrics for analysing a varied range of archaeological plant materials (mainly seeds, pollen, phytoliths, and starch grains). In particular, morphometrics have contributed to the study of the domestication and spread of many cereals world-wide, as well as that of other taxa including legumes, underground storage organs (USO), and fruits (such as olives, grapes, and dates). This paper reviews current methodologies, recent applications, and advances in the use of morphometrics in archaeobotanical research, discusses its role in exploring major research questions, and suggests possible future directions for its use.     

杏开二月

已经是二月仲春了,大地柔软,天气慢慢热起来了。一场习习的春雨,浇得人心头酥酥的。我第一次注意到,家门前的杏树开了。枝干上,星星点点,挑着几朵白,轻盈得很,把薄薄的心打开,驻足美的枝头,观赏人间烟火。背后是灰灰的庭院,低矮的     

Geography in Higher Education in Australia

Within the last 30 years, geographical information systems (GIS) have been used increasingly in the training of geographers. On the basis of the philosophy of technology and instrumental genesis, we sketch how the use of instruments interacts with learning processes and outline how this can be studied. We empirically analyse students' learning processes and the influences of teaching practice in an introductory course in GIS. We show that students have different strategies for creating their personal instrument for spatial thinking and how teaching interacts with the students' learning processes. Finally, we discuss how GIS may gradually alter future professional development of geographers.     

America in Speech and in Deed

The author's primary aim in what follows is to fully articulate Chantal Delsol's critique of late modern universalism as an attempt to depoliticize the individual for the sake of replacing politics with morality. The result of this depoliticization is a quasi-pantheistic cosmopolitanism that not only effectively denies the significance of individuality, despite rhetorically lionizing it, but also undercuts the freedom of individual conscience that makes moral choice possible. Genuine political prudence and moral judgment are subsequently replaced by the rigid exactitude of a technocratic analysis that reintroduces the "clandestine ideology" it was, despite protestations to the contrary, intended to eliminate. The unhappy paradox produced by the attempt to replace the necessary limitations of political judgment with the universality of a priori moral decree is that a new set of culturally and historically idiosyncratic political attachments are surreptitiously introduced beyond the pale of reasonable debate and disagreement. Delsol's measured response is not a precipitous rejection of universalism as such but a rehabilitation of it that recaptures the Christian moral realism at its core.
