复制还是隐喻?——对“打猖”民间宗教活动的研究

以民间宗教活动中的"打猖"为例,基于治理的视角,论证了民间宗教"隐喻的隐喻"背后,其实是对"国家"和"社会"的"复制"。这种"复制"具体表现为:在治理背景上,民间宗教"复制"了"社会"的治乱兴衰和由乱至治;在治理空间上,民间宗教"复制"了"国家"的行政区划与权力空间设置;在治理目的上,民间宗教"复制"了国家的民本思想;在治理手段上,民间宗教"复制"了"社会"的流动机制和"国家"的惩戒机制;在治理合法性上,民间宗教"复制"了"国家"与"社会"的双重授权模式。中国的民间宗教并不等同于"社会",也不等同于"国家",而是由"国家"与"社会"共同"合谋"而"互构"出来的"第三域",是"国家"和"社会"之间的缓冲地带。     

何谓地方:现代性视野中的“地方”思想

在西方思想传统中,"地方"观念的产生来自资本主义"空间"扩张的冲击。出于对扩张性"空间"营造可见性"差异"的反对,现象学通过"还原"而呈现出人之具体实践的时间整体性特征,由此时间观念的改变而产生了与扩张性"空间"不同的"空间"观念,即"地方"。现象学之后,西方人文地理学将"地方"观念发扬光大,但产生了"地方"意义来自差异性"建构"还是"根著"于人之存在体验的分歧。海德格尔及其思想同道认为,"地方"的意义来自于"建构"与"根著"的合题。"地方"的本义是人借助于"物"实现"差异性聚集",由此"聚集"而实现一种"整体"性,在此"整体"性的庇护中人"能栖居",由此"能栖居"而获得"地方"体验。海德格尔的"地方"观念同时包含危险,他所指认的"物"本身的非现实性使"差异性聚集"有成为"差异性游荡"的倾向,由此会产生虚无主义的"游荡的地方"。后结构主义阵营的部分思想家发展了"游荡的地方"的地方观念,索亚、德·塞图等人则在将"地方"观的建构引向现实博弈的意义上提出了值得关注的"地方"思想。     

修志先立志

<正>咱们修志的人,在社会上常被称为"舞文弄墨的"、"耍笔杆子的"或"喝墨水儿混饭吃的",即所谓的"文化人"。其实,"文化人"里的分类可多去了,且不说那些"星"呀"款"呀"腕"呀"豪"呀"家"呀"师"呀什么的,有名有利,让人羡慕不已,就是大约属于     

邓小平与香港"后过渡时期"的中英外交斗争

邓小平为解决香港"十二年过渡时期"的"平稳过渡"和"顺利交接"问题,提出创造条件让"爱国爱港"的香港人逐步参与管理并且为1997年收回香港以后"港人治港"培养人才.由于英国在"十二年过渡时期"以"代议制改革"为核心的"非殖民化"的"光荣撤退",以及不惜牺牲中英合作关系和香港前途以香港为"磨心"进行的自"偷步民主"至"民主冲剌"的政治对抗,中国在中英合作的基础已经被破坏、"旧香港"与"新香港"之间的政治体制"直通车"已经"不通"的情况下,根据"以我为主"的原则按照中英"联合声明"和"基本法"的规定对香港特别行政区的政治体制"另起炉灶"筹备香港特别行政区.     

汉代的“亭”“市”陶文

在传世的汉代陶文中,常常可见到一种"某亭"、"某市"的戳记,如"菑亭"、"临亭"、"(幸夂皿)亭"、"南乡之市"、"荧市"、"东武市"、"曹市"、"代市"、"高市"等等;有的则只单印"亭"字、"市"字,或印"都市"二字。近年以来,在很多调查、发掘工作中,又发现许多带有同类戳记的陶器和陶片,如洛阳汉河南县城遗址所出印"河亭"与     

汉文化中人的“生涩”“夹生”与“成熟”

以汉语、汉字为主要媒介的汉文化,对于"人"的成长过程,经常使用从"生"到"熟"的隐喻性表述。通过详细梳理汉文化对"人"的"生"与"熟"这两种不同状态的描述,指出了汉文化对处在"生"与"熟"的中间状态,亦即所谓"半生不熟"或"夹生/半熟"状态的"人",也有着非常丰富的表象。在汉文化对人的"生"-"夹生/半熟"-"熟"等状态的分类中,内涵着汉文化的秩序及其价值取向。     

浅议年鉴编辑要处理好的几个关系

做好年鉴编辑,需要把握信息材料的精度和准度,提炼出事物的主体,使年鉴信息既有"点"又有"面"。年鉴编辑们必须处理好"简"与"繁"、"粗"与"细"、"忙"与"闲"之间的关系,只有这样做,才能抓住问题的本质,探寻解决的方法。

“中国制造”为何屡遭诋毁

最近一段时间,美国媒体铺天盖地报道"中国制造"的"质量问题":什么"有毒宠物食品"、"有毒牙膏"、"不安全玩具"、"不合格轮胎"……乃至输美水产品都出现了问题,好像中国制造的产品都是"有毒的"、"劣质的"、"有害的"。美国对中国产品质量的喧嚣,已经感染了欧盟和其他地区,他们也对"中国制造"神经兮兮起来。今年5月,巴     

郭店竹简《唐虞之道》“瞽瞍”补释

郭店竹简《唐虞之道》所记虞舜父亲的名字为"■寞"。学者已指出,第一字应释为"■",从"瓜"得声,读为"瞽"。第二字一般释为"寞",分析为从"宀"、"莫"声,但读为什么意见颇不一致。根据上博竹简《子羔》用作"瞍"的"卉"字从"艸(卉)"得声,本文认为"■寞"字所从之"莫"不是"从日在茻中"的"暮"字初文,而应该分析为从"日"、"艸(茻)"声,读为"瞍"。"寞"即文献中的"瞽瞍",二者为音近通用关系。

Bossler,Beverly, Courtesans,Concubines, and the Cult of Female Fidelity

Employing a wealth of detailed evidence, the author of the book portrays an ambitious picture of gender relations in the roughly five centuries from late-Tang to late-Yuan. In order to make the incredibly complicated picture more organized, Bossier divides the book chronologically into three time periods, the Northern Song （with a little part touching on the late Tang）, the Southern Song, and the Yuan. Within each time period, Bossier analyzes three major categories of women---courtesans, concubines, and wives--in that sequence. Such arrangement is a clear sign of her argument： from Song to Yuan, writings on men＇s romantic relationship with courtesans gradually gave way to wives＇ fidelity and obligations, which was being applied more generally to all women, including courtesans, courtesan-concubines, and concubines. The application of wifely virtue to all women promoted the status of concubines within the family, as they were expected to behave and be treated like respectable wives. As a consequence, wives＇ authority declined, especially when sons produced by wives and concubines received equal treatment. Such a practice stressed the importance of paternal side while ignoring the maternal one, hence greatly intensified the patriline.

Land,Stone, Trees,Identity, Ambition: the Building Blocks of Brochs

Brochs are impressive stone roundhouses unique to Iron Age Scotland. This paper introduces a new perspective developed from architectural analysis and drawing on new survey, fieldwork and analogies from anthropology and social history. The study of architectural design and constructional detail exposes fewer competitive elements than previously anticipated. Instead, attempts to emulate, share and communicate identities can be detected. The architectural language of the broch allows complex layers of individual preferences, local and regional traditions, and supra-regional communications to be expressed in a single house design. The proposed ‘productive households’ model moves beyond ideas of competing elites at times of stress, and invites a new debate by expanding a more complex broch concept beyond the Atlantic core.
