试论天水与四川佛教石窟之关系

天水是古丝绸之路上的重镇,丝绸之路东西往来的陕甘蜀通南北交汇的咽喉,历来为兵家必争之地,交通之要冲.佛教及佛教文化艺术传人中国,东西南北传弘,古镇天水(秦州)无疑会起到桥梁作用.天水历史上曾多次归属陕西、四川统辖,尤其是丝绸之路沿秦岭西行的南侧路线从麦积山石窟下通过,它与陕甘南通巴蜀的大道交汇在天水.佛教及佛教文化艺术沿丝绸之路的传弘,天水与巴蜀必定存在一定的关系,本文谨就佛教和佛教石窟艺术及佛教思想在两地传弘相互间产生的关系谈点己见,以求教方家.

试论天水民间文学资源的挖掘及其利用

天水民间文学类型丰富,现存有部分神话、民间传说、民间歌舞、民间戏剧等。在天水旅游业的发展中,这一资源具有多种旅游价值。然而,天水民间文学资源在旅游开发利用中还不尽如人意。应重视天水民间文学等人文旅游资源的开发与利用,以促进天水经济、文化和社会的可持续发展。     

中国古代青金石颜料的电镜分析

运用扫描电子显微镜、电子探针微量分析等仪器分析手段对甘肃敦煌莫高窟、西千佛洞、永靖炳灵寺、天水麦积山、青海乐都瞿昙寺等地石窟寺、寺院彩绘艺术中所应用的青金石颜料进行了显微形貌和成分分析。结果表明：从西秦、北魏、西魏、北周、隋、唐、五代、宋、西夏、元、明十余个朝代,千余年间,不同地区所用青金石颜料的微量元素大致相同。在敦煌莫高窟、天水麦积山石窟样品中发现了Zn元素,经XRD分析证实,颜料中有ZnO存在。     

来麦积山，爱上天水

如何前往天水位于甘肃东南部,西安兰州两大城市中间,陇海铁路、310国道横贯全境,国道316和陕、甘、川、宁、青相接的省际公路畅通,在建的天宝高速公路2009年竣工通车,天水经定西至兰州的高速公路也正在建设之中,天水军民合用机场2008年下半年投入使用。全市主要景区都在距中心城区50公里的半径之内,麦积山风景名胜区距天水市主城区秦州区45公里,距天水火车站25公里,景区内外公路相通,出游十分便捷。西安到天水约4～5小时车程,兰州到天水约3小时车程。     

天河注水

陇右地区的另一座丝路重镇就是天水。天水最初为秦于前266年所置邽县,属陇西郡。汉武帝元鼎三年（114）从陇西郡中分出置天水郡,东汉更名为汉阳郡,三国时复名天水,先后分属蜀、魏。西晋时置秦州,治所上邽（今天水市）,唐以后属陇右道,为陇右秦州。秦州之名一直沿用至清末,民国以后,改秦州为天水,并一直沿用至今。     

古树的罪与罚

天水自古便是盛产“大木”之地。这是大自然独给天水的厚赐。天水地处暖温带半湿润向半干旱气候的过渡地带,属于华北、华中、蒙新及喜马拉雅植物的交汇点,加之域内渭河水系之山地、丘陵、河川     

历史文化古城—天水

“羲皇故里”天水,历史悠久,人文荟萃,是中华民族远古文明的发祥地之一。早在距今7800多年以前,人类便在这块土地上开始了童年时代的生活。我国历史上第一个中央集权制国家——秦的祖先也是在这里发育壮大起来的。天水因此成为丝路古道上一颗璀璨的明珠,一座古老的历史文化名城。辉煌的历史文化天水古称秦州,又名邽县、成纪、上邽。据史籍记载,天水在三代属雍州,秦属陇西郡,汉置天水郡,三国设秦州。郦道元《水经注》载,汉时上邽故城“五城相接,北城中有湖,有白龙出是湖,风雨随之,故汉武帝元鼎三年改为天水郡。”这便是“天河注水”的传说,也是“天水”一名的由来。     

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.     

Tibetan-Inhabited Area in Deqen in Development

Deqen, honored as “Shangri La”,is located in the area where three rivers meet to form one in the Henduan Mountains straddling the borders of Yunnan, Sichuan and Tibet.
