中唐敦煌石窟造像的涅槃思想

本文以敦煌中唐时期的涅槃像与涅槃经变为主,探讨其中涉及的思想内涵,并重点讨论莫高窟第44窟与第158窟.第44为中心柱窟,对延续北朝中心柱窟的涅槃思想有其意义;第158为涅槃窟,在涅槃的主题思想下,统合显密,并以十方三世净土来诠释主尊涅槃佛之清净法身体性.中唐石窟造像的涅槃主题仍以法身为核心,法身实相本就清净,但早期义学以中观为主导,故强调其不生不灭,唐代唯识思想兴盛,相对于染依而强调其清净本性.法身之清净体性与实相不悖,而更能彰显涅槃常乐我净之最高境界!

东周楚式戈斑纹的成分与相组成

为探讨东周楚式戈斑纹的处理技术,采用金相显微镜、SEM、EDS、EBSD研究了上海博物馆藏的楚式斑纹戈的成分、显微组织和相组成,讨论了其制作工艺.结果表明:东周楚式戈富锡层厚度不均,以十余μm左右的厚度居多,最多处由4种不同物相组成,分别为η相、ε相、σ相及(α+δ)共析相.富锡层与基体之广日j没有明显的分界线.与现有其它富锡工艺研究成果进行比较,认为此件楚式戈与其它地域的富锡技术具有共同的工艺特征,应为热镀锡工艺.但在工艺参数掌控方面应呈现地域上的差异.     

“中英友好奖学金计划”与新时期留学教育的发展

改革开放初期,爱国华人包玉刚向中英两国政府提出了中英友好奖学金计划,该计划得到了中英两国领导人的认可,并一同实施该计划。中英友好奖学金计划历经十年,为中国培养了大批的优秀人才,推动了中国高等教育事业及社会经济的发展;创造了一个全新的留学教育模式,为以后留英教育提供了经验,加强了与华人华侨的联系,发展了中英关系。三边互动的中英友好奖学金计划教育交流模式,有利于香港政权的平稳交接以及回归后的稳步发展,也有力地推动了中英两国关系全面发展。这种三边互动是改革开放初期中国政府勇于探索、积极创新的产物,它不仅表明了中国政府能够采用多种形式发展留英教育事业,同时也证明了中国政府能够团结一切可以团结的力量进行社会主义现代化建设。     

朱子四德說續論

對於四德而言,朱子的討論包含了三種分析的論述,即"從理看","從氣看","從物看"。但總起來説,應當承認,朱子的思想不斷發展出一種論述的傾向,即不再把元亨利貞僅僅理解爲理,而注重將其看作兼賅體用的流行之統體的不同階段,如將其看作元氣流行的不同階段。由於天人對應,於是對仁義禮智的理解也依照元亨利貞的模式發生變化,即仁義禮智不僅僅是性理,也被看作生氣流行的不同發作形態。這導致朱子的四德論在其後期更多地趨向"從氣看"、"從物看"、從"流行之統體"看,使得朱子的哲學世界觀不僅有理氣分析的一面,也有流行統體的一面,而後者更可顯現出朱子思想的總體方向。     

地方志与文学研究

地方志为中国献之大宗,其数量之巨,门类之广,传承之久和庋藏之富,在献领域中,几无能与其伦比。举凡一地之自然环境、政事旧闻、经济物产、化艺术、风俗民情、名胜古迹等,无不包容,实为百科全书式之地情书,而与学研究尤多关联,今择数例而辨析之,供治学参考与采择。[第一段]     

Postcolonial cultural governance: a study of heritage management in post-1997 Hong Kong

This paper seeks to unpack the politics of heritage preservation in post-1997 Hong Kong. Referring to international frameworks on heritage preservation, it seeks to position Hong Kong’s cultural resource management on par with international discourses for the advancement of heritage governance. Debates surrounding heritage are indeed a part of the wider picture of Hong Kong’s cultural and identity politics and the Hong Kong-China relationship. By examining various contested cases of heritage conservation, and by linking those debates back to the government’s responses within the context of cultural governance, we suggest that heritage management has become a hot stove for cultural politics in post-colonial Hong Kong with deep repercussions in the political, social and economic spheres. The paper examines the rising social debates concerning the removal and conservation of built heritage, and the various government attempts to address these debates. It argues that the current heritage governance mechanism has failed to meet social needs and provide an articulated heritage policy. We propose that a coherent organisational structure is required to better accommodate diverse and contradictory views and discourses surrounding heritage and cultural governance and to tackle the various cultural challenges in postcolonial Hong Kong.     

《馆藏文物防震规范》关键技术——防震安全设计研究

《馆藏文物防震规范》WW/T 0069-2015,基于馆藏文物防震安全提出馆舍、展陈和文物全系统防震安全理念、设计方法和具体措施。本研究针对馆藏文物防震设计方法、适用范围、展柜及文物安全性判别等关键技术问题展开研究。首先,提出了"地震波+馆舍+展柜+文物"的全过程全系统防震设计理念;其次,针对浮放展柜及文物,进行地震作用下安全性分析研究;第三,与Getty博物馆研究成果对比,验证本研究理论的正确性与可靠性。分析得出:文物防震安全与文物高宽比、支撑接触面摩擦系数、安放处加速度峰值等因素有关;引入了抗滑动安全系数和抗倾覆安全系数进行设计,可充分保证文物安全性。     

Chen Yao-huang,Integrate and Divide： The Communist Revolution in Hebei Area, 1921-1949 （in Chinese）

For decades, the victory of the Chinese Communist Party （CCP） has been fascinating historians of modem China who work outside of the People＇s Republic of China. After recognizing the complexity of the Chinese Revolution, they have tended to focus on specific regions, applying the approaches of a variety of disciplines including sociology, a trend that gave rise to the field of ＂base area studies,＂ marked by the publishing of Mark Sheldon＇s The Yenan Way in 1971. This new book by Chen Yao-huang is another remarkable contribution to the study of base areas.
