试论张謇政治转型时期的“新思维”

由传统迈向现代的进程与知识精英思维方式的转变关系密切。近代中国,理性思辨既是推动知识精英思维方式转化的核心因素,也是推动政治思想革新、民族新生的重要前提。因为,现代社会与传统农业社会不同,许多问题绝非“吃一堑长一智”旧式思维套路所能处置的。张謇是精英群体中思维方式率先西化的典型代表,他将东西方思维方式结合在一起分析思考中国的现实及将来,形成了对时局的独特看法,主张政治上要渐进与公正,教育上要独立与务实。     

New insights into the ancient silver production of the Wallis area, Switzerland

This paper discusses the results of a study of the exploitation history of the metallogenic region of the Wallis, Switzerland. Periods of exploitation in this mining district are determined by comparisons of the lead isotope fingerprint of the mines with those of dated artefacts presumed to have a local origin based on the style of craftsmanship. The approach is based on the study of silver mines in the Wallis area and illustrated by three examples of local craftsmanship: (1) silver jewellery from the Late Iron Age, (2) a reliquary shrine from the Early Middle Ages and (3) silver coins from the Late Middle Age.

论古文字通假的文献释证法

破古文字通假,形音义释读在上下文中得以密合,是第一步的基础性工作,之后必须具备文献求证的实验过程。文献求证如何有效地进行,是古文字考释的方法论问题。本文以王辉《古文字通假字典》(2008年)为举证范围,从所据文献之有效度的强弱入手,将古文字通假的文献释证法分作六种类型依次加以论述。     

洛阳博物馆藏原慈宁宫大佛堂无量寿佛造像

1973年,柬埔寨国王西哈努克亲王要来访问洛阳,柬埔寨是个佛教信仰的国家,西哈努克亲王本人也是个佛教信徒,来洛阳自然要到白马寺（后西哈努克亲王并没有来）①。赵朴初向周总理提出,从故宫调拨一批佛像、法器等佛教文物到白马寺,周总理很快即批准同意了。同年外交部副部长韩念龙同志带领各国使馆人员到河南参观,看到白马寺当时的状况,对外影响很不好。在这种情况下,河南省委提出并报周总理批准,于1972年对白马寺进行了一般性整修。②在得到国务院批准后,从1973年3月开始,到5月结束,洛阳方面历时3个月,用车30余辆,运回文物2300多件,     

“Have You Considered My Servant Job?” A Reflection on the Book of Job

Abstract

The Book of Job is often viewed as a story of unnecessary and undeserved suffering. A man who is “blameless” in the eyes of God is put through senseless anguish and misery simply because God and the Adversary have a wager. It is a story of a whimsical God who does not understand or care about human beings and their sufferings, and of an insignificant and yet defiant being who epitomizes human dignity and fortitude. This and other similar accounts make God villainous and human sufferings mysterious and incomprehensible. This article seeks to cast these issues in a different light by exploring some of the key terms in the Prologue and the speeches of God in the Theophany. The exploration ends with some reflections on Job in the Epilogue of the Book.
