大革命时期中央银行初创资本金考

广东革命政府于1924年创立的中央银行,是中国历史上第一家以“中央银行”命名的国家银行,尽管严格讲它还不能算是真正的国家银行,却是后来南京国民政府中央银行的滥觞,在金融史上具有不可忽视的重要地位。特别是在北伐战争时,它担负起一切军政费用的支应和调拨的责任,对支援革命战争起了积极的作用。对于该行的开办资金,历来学界大都认为有粤币毫银1000万元,但根据对有关史料的分析和考证,这笔款项其实并不存在。     

The Religious Crisis of the 1960s: The Experience of the Australian Churches

The decade of the 1960s in North America and Europe is generally seen by historians and sociologists as a time of sudden and unexpected religious upheaval. But was this the case in Australia? This article examines the changes in belief and behaviour within Australia’s major churches during the ‘remembered sixties’ from c. 1964 to c. 1972, in relation to the cultural and social context, and the extent to which these amounted to a religious turnaround or crisis. Areas examined include the impact of radical theology, symbolized by the book Honest to God, and the ‘new morality’; the changes in Australian Catholicism initiated by the Second Vatican Council; the debate among Catholics over birth control and the papal encyclical Humanae Vitae; the decline in weekly church attendance, Sunday school enrolments and the membership of church youth organizations; the ‘crisis’ in the ordained ministry; changing attitudes in the churches towards social issues; and the responses of the churches to the Vietnam War. The religious unsettlement that occurred in Australia during this period was very similar to North America and Europe, though there were distinctive local emphases. The central issues in debate were common to all major denominations: the relevance and authority of traditional institutions and formulations of belief.

塞伦盖蒂的呼唤之顽强的角马

<正>在走投无路时,角马们会用并不锋利的犄角,顶向掠食者的肚子;它们在面对强大的狮子时,甚至不惜纵身跳下悬崖摔得粉身碎骨,向百兽之王显示宁死不屈的抗争精神。在非洲草食动物中,它们恐怕是最没有"特长"的一种,它们之所以能与天敌相抗衡并繁衍至今,唯一的武器就是顽强。     

The Portraiture of the Ancients

Analytical field survey of the major earthworks at Stanwick has provided a more detailed context for the various programmes of excavation than has hitherto been published. The account also emphasizes some of the problems that remain in the interpretation of this massive and extremely complex site. The recognition of some of the later changes in the landscape, interesting in their own right, contributes significantly to our limited understanding of the prominent late prehistoric and Roman phases.
