古代目录中史部故事类到政书类的演变

故事本意系指旧事,司马迁继承其父遗愿时曾表示:"请悉论先人所次旧闻,弗敢阙."以后又曰:"余所谓述故事,整齐其世传,非所谓作也."①从对旧事的引录叙述,渐指旧日事例及前朝的典章制度,《汉书·楚元王传附刘向传》:"是时,宣王循武帝故事,招名儒俊材置左右."又《汉书·苏武传》:"卫将军张安世荐(苏)武明习故事,奉使不辱使命."故事意指典章制度,史志中一直沿用至明代.     

The digital restoration of painted patterns on the No. 2 Qin bronze chariot based on hyperspectral imaging

The No. 2 Qin bronze chariot unearthed from Qinshihuang's Mausoleum is world famous for its huge size and colourful painted patterns. However, since it had been buried for a long time and was affected by its harsh environment, its painted patterns have been severely damaged. The traditional restoration methods, which mainly rely on expert experience, are manual, inefficient and lack scientific support. Moreover, to protect the important cultural relics, any invasive operations, such as sampling analysis, are strictly prohibited. This paper presents a method that combines hyperspectral imaging and computer technology for the digital virtual restoration of the bronze chariot's patterns. It is non-destructive, more efficient and more scientific. The method reproduces the damaged patterns with the following approaches: restoring the missing edges of the patterns; and distinguishing the different pigments. The obtained result implies that the method can digitally reproduce some of the damaged patterns, and that it can be used as a reference for recreating the patterns of the other painted bronze.     

Insecurity and Pastoral Development in the Sahel

In this article it is argued that conventional agro-ecological and organizational concepts used in pastoral development are strongly biased towards the formulation and enforcement of norms. This leads development experts to attempts to control pastoralists and their herds. The policies and development interventions based on these assumptions have been largely unsuccessful. As a consequence attention for dryland areas and pastoral development has declined among researchers and development agencies. An important reason for this failure is the fundamental misfit between these normative concepts and the reality of dryland ecosystems and pastoral society. In order to show this, an alternative view on rangeland ecology and pastoral society is presented, supported by a case study of Fulbe pastoral society in dryland Central Mali. The authors argue that approaches to pastoral development must be revised in the direction of the dynamics inherent in the pastoral way of life.     

京西村落里的花会--庄户、千军、台古幡会

对于北京民间花会的研究,总的来说是集中在对以碧霞元君信仰为背景的妙峰山香会的研究上,而其中又以北京城的香会组织与活动为研究重点。民国时期的北京香会的研究主要有：1925年顾颉刚、孙伏园等5位学者对妙峰山庙会的实地考察,在《京报副刊》先后6期发表“妙峰山进香专号”,后于1928年9月收录另外几篇相关文章,以《妙峰山》为名结集出版。同年,李景汉根据自己的亲自考察,在《社会学杂志》上发表《妙峰山“朝顶进香”的调查》一文。1929年,顾颉刚和魏建功、白涤洲等人一起再次对妙峰山进香活动进行田野调查,后以调查专号形式在《民俗》第六九、七十合刊上发表文章9篇、附录3篇和田野照片近40幅。此外还有与妙峰山香会有关的专著两部,一是奉宽的《妙峰山琐记》,
