The New York and the Josephine: two steamships of the Charles Morgan Line

Charles Morgan (1795 to 1882) was one of the most important figures in the development of steam packet service in the United States. Morgan's career spanned over a half century, during which he controlled some 117 steamships. Of the three known wrecks of Morgan Line steamers, two, the New York (1837–1845) and the Josephine (1867–1881), have been documented by the Minerals Management Service, a Federal agency responsible for overseeing the extraction of mineral resources on the Outer Continental Shelf. The two vessels document the changing technology of steam navigation through the middle part of the 19th century.     

武则天时代的考古学观察

~~和西上阳宫遗址尚未发掘 ,仅从《大唐六典》和《元河南志》等文献记载来看 ,其整体布局形式和作为正殿的观风殿两侧以楼阁为配殿的作法 ,以及沿河长廊的设置 ,都是宫殿艺术中大胆而灵活的创举 8。另外 ,值得注意的是 ,武则天辅政期间 ,还在东都洛阳宫城西苑以及两京大道旁 ,以异乎寻常的速度和规模新建和扩建了一批行宫 ,如昭应温泉宫 ;郑县神台宫 ;华阴琼台宫、金城宫 ;陕县绣岭宫 ;渑池紫桂宫 ;永宁崎岫宫、兰峰宫 ;福昌宫 ;青安连昌宫、兴泰宫等。严耕望先生在其巨著《唐代交通图考》第一卷中也曾有所提及。这是武则天转移政治空间 ,摆…     

博物馆讲述“她”故事:博物馆与女性主题展览

博物馆展览的女性文化属于社会建构的一种身份文化。因受传统男权文化的影响,"她"故事在"他"历史中,长期处于被叙事、被表征的从属地位。作为公共文化空间的博物馆,早期受"他"文化叙事模式的影响,展示中较多充斥着男权话语。20世纪80年代,受新博物馆学运动的多元叙事方式影响,女性主题叙事逐渐进入博物馆。近年,国内博物馆在展览实践中也开始改变传统"国之重器"观的宏大叙事模式,从"小历史"视角重新审视、诠释和再现女性文化,先后策划了一系列颇具变革性的女性主题展览,为消解男权表征体系中单调的女性形象,重构女性文化身份,实现"她"故事的自我讲述等提供了重要的公共文化平台。     

Performing race and gender: the exoticization of Josephine Baker and Anna May Wong

Josephine Baker and Anna May Wong are two exceptions to white hegemony in early show business. They became the first Afro-American and Chinese-American stars in the 1920s and reached international stardom in spite of their ethnicity but also because of it. Their careers and success were based on their exoticization. Baker and Wong's exoticism has much to do with ethnicity, but also with sex and gender. Their exotic dances on stage or on screen can be considered to be forms of erotic shows. This article shows how sex, gender, and race are entangled in their movies and burlesque shows. It also discusses the ways in which the agency and the audience of the performer should be taken into account, and analyzes how these performances were both rooted in Western imaginative geographies and connected to symbolic and material spaces.

明定陵出土帝后服饰（一）

服饰是人类文明的象征,也是一个国家和民族的文化象征。更是人们日常生活中不可缺少的生活物品,它体现了人们的思想意识和审美观念。古人最初的服饰只是为了遮体御寒护肤,随着社会的发展,服饰不仅限于保护人的身体,而且发展到装饰效果极强的饰物。

3．蔽膝 蔽膝,冕服中系在前面垂于腰带下,因在膝前,所以叫做蔽膝。由于最早衣服形成是先有蔽前之衣,所以后来把蔽膝施之于冕服上,以表示不忘古之意。蔽膝用在冕服叫“芾”,用在祭服叫“钹”。定陵出土2件。皆呈梯形,上窄下宽,红素罗面（为四经绞罗组织,经紧密,纬线较粗。经密：120根／厘米,纬密：14根／厘米）,     

仁宗张皇后与明初政治

在探讨明初政治时,往往对仁宗张皇后的作用注意不够。其实,无论在仁宣时期和正统初年皇位更迭中,还是这一时期委政内阁、休养生息政策的制定和实施,张皇后都起了十分重要的作用。此外,在抑制宦官势力,约束外戚等方面,她也功不可没。张皇后确实是彪炳史册的女政治家。     

武则天称帝与图谶祥瑞--以S.6502《大云经疏》为中心

一、引言 中国的封建专制制度,绵亘近三千年.据统计,大大小小的君侯、皇帝不下六百多人.他们之能够身登大宝,不外三途:一靠自己打天下,二靠祖荫承袭,三靠骨肉相残.但是无论在哪种情况下登基,他们都需要打出自己的招牌--制造理论根据;他们都需要显示皇天后土的支持--制造图谶祥瑞.一句话,他们都想争取平民百姓恭听恭顺,都需要愚弄百姓,都需要麻醉百姓.这类事件,古今中外概莫能外.
