两汉诸予论风俗

我国历来是一个重视风俗的国度,至迟在西周时代就已建立了采风制度。及至春秋战国时代,风俗开始成为先秦诸子讨论的中心议题之一。“风”、“俗”两字首提者为孔子,“移风易俗,莫善于乐”。“风俗”一词,最早提出则是苟子,“广教化,美风俗”。不仅如此,能否移风易俗也成为时代进步的标志之一。秦国就是一个成功转变风俗的国家。入秦汉之后,风俗有了进一步的发展,     

试论民俗文化的特征和保护

民俗文化是以口头、风俗或行为等形式创造和传播的文化现象,与生活紧密相连,体现了人们日常生活的行为规范、道德伦理、认知方式和思维模式。民俗文化是一个地域、民族或族群经过长时间的积累、传播、吸取和改造后,形成的相对稳定的生活方式

民俗文物的征集保护与利用

<正>民俗是一般民众的生活文化和活态传承文化,民俗文化以其独特的历史进程,形成了特有内涵底蕴。民俗文物则是随民俗而传承下来的一种物态文化,反映着各民族人民的生产生活及不同的社会风俗。一件近现代的民俗文物,可能就是几千年前民俗文物的伟承和再现。     

两汉诸子论风俗

我国历来是一个重视风俗的国度,至迟在西周时代就已建立了采风制度。及至春秋战国时代,风俗开始成为先秦诸子讨论的中心议题之一。“风”、“俗”两字首提者为孔子,“移风易俗,莫善于乐”。“风俗”一词,最早提出则是荀子,“广教化,美风俗”。不仅如此,能否移风易俗也成为时代进步的标志之一。秦国就是一个成功转变风俗的国家。入秦汉之后,风俗有了进一步的发展,甚至成为后世许多风俗的源头。有秦一代,史料缺乏,不好妄下评论。相对而言,两汉的风     

试述民俗文化活动的主要特点

民俗文化伴随人类的产生而产生。它一经产生就规约了特定的生产方式与生活方式,并呈现出集体性、传承性、地方性、变异性、丰富性、实用性。民俗文化是人们在长期的生产实践和社会实践中创造的语言和行为模式。或者说是民族共同创造和遵守的行为规则。在长期生产生活实践中形成的古老风俗、习惯、信仰为主要内容,以满足人们精神生活需求为目的的文化活动;用以表达思想情感的重要手段,它产生并贯穿于浩瀚历史长河的劳动过程。

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. The Deqen Tibetan Ethnic Group Autonomous Prefecture, founded in September 1957, is the only Tibetan autonomous prefecture in Yunnan Province but one of 10 in the
