口述史在地方志领域的地位与价值

对于地方志和口述史的关系,可以追溯到地方志的源头,地方志在各个发展时期不同程度地运用了口述史成果。口述史方法在地方志领域的运用可以填补文献资料的空白,可以补救文献资料的偏差和讹误,可以完善地方志记述的内容,有利于正确认识并科学反映事物。并探讨口述史对地方志的四点理念启示:一是将历史的讲述权交还给当事者,二是重视第一手资料,三是多元的历史视角,四是关注历史与人的关系。     

抗战时期的浙江地方银行

抗日战争时期浙江半壁江山沦陷,然而,在游击区和未沦陷的山区,浙江人民仍进行着艰难的开发与建设。建设离不开资金,金融业无疑在其中扮演了重要角色。浙江地方银行作为一家省级银行,在浙江南部的艰难环境中,运用各种手段从事经营活动,在自身获利的同时,也为浙南山区的开发和坚持抗战做出了不可磨灭的贡献。     

关于《新唐书》的书法问题

北宋中期,《新唐书》在宋祁、欧阳修的主持下,历十七年终于修成。然而人们对《新唐书》的批评很多,集中在书法问题上,包括史料的取舍、语言的采用、褒贬体例等。《新唐书》之所以在书法上出现这些问题,主要原因是修书组织存在重大缺陷,而且修史官员对春秋笔法理解方面有较大的差异,文人修史存在着如修史者的态度、主观好恶、修史风格等许多弊病。     

打开可以“望见生动情景的视窗”——读王子今教授《秦汉儿童的世界》

儿童或者说童年是每一个成年个体生命最初的“身份”,这已经是我们今天习以为常的认识。然而,在过去半个多世纪的儿童史研究者眼里,儿童(Child)概念却并非如此简单,它被认为是一个由成年人“建构”的文化概念,童年(Childhood)则是一种“结构性”存在,而不是指生理上或年龄上可以与成年人一分为二的自然而然的人生阶段。儿童史研究者正是从与儿童相关的一切历史现象的社会文化史意义出发,将目光转向被历史书写者和史学研究者长期有意或无意忽视的儿童主题。     

关于《吴越春秋》一段疑难文意的解释

《吴越春秋·吴太伯传》"吾以伯长居国,绝嗣者也,其当有封者,吴仲也,故自号勾吴,非其方乎?"一段文意存在着疑难,不易理解。以往的注释和翻译大都有问题。其实句中"绝嗣者也"的"绝"字应该是"继"字之讹。句中"吾以伯长居国,继嗣者也"是用太伯在周的身份,即以"继嗣者"扣合"勾吴"的"勾(句)"的通假字"后",而"其当有封者,吴仲也"是用应该接受分封的吴仲的名字中的"吴"字扣合"勾吴"的"吴"。     

乾清宫空间功能的转换与制度变迁（上）

乾清宫是明清皇宫中位于内廷的宫殿,在明代是皇帝的寝宫,清康熙八年,皇帝居住场所从保和殿迁入乾清宫,这座明代皇帝寝宫遂被改造成清帝的理政中心。随着乾清宫空间功能的改变,清代一些重要的制度也随之出现,如乾清门御门听政、乾清宫召对臣工、懋勤殿秋谳勾到等。而且乾清宫功能的转变,直接影响了外臣进入内廷的行为方式。本文通过对文献资料的梳理,论证了乾清宫空间功能转变的原因、过程及相应制度的产生。     

Investigation on the Yinjiawopu Site,a Medieval Salt Production Workshop in Northeast China

In 2014 and 2015, the Research Center for Chinese Frontier Archaeology at Jilin University and the Jilin Province Archaeological Research Institute jointly conducted two excavations at the Yinjiawopu Site, in Da’an City, Jilin Province, Northeast China. One burial, two canals, five leaching pits, two house-foundations, four hearths, 103 pits, two ditches, and over 800 pieces of artifacts dated from the 12th to the 13th centuries a.d. (the Liao-Jin period) were found. Analysis shows that these features belong to a salt production workshop. This study marks the first discovery of a salt production site in Northeast China. The archaeological, ethnographic, and historical materials from the site allow a reconstruction of the chaîne opératoire of salt-making by the inhabitants of the Northeast China Plain during this period. This study sheds light on the exchange and control of salt, on the activities and daily life of the inhabitants of the region, and on their relationship with the environment.     

A new species of Loricera Latreille from Eocene Baltic amber (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Loricerinae)

Cai, C., Liu Y. & Huang, D., February 2017. A new species of Loricera Latreille from Eocene Baltic amber (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Loricerinae). Alcheringa xx, xxx-xxx. ISSN 0311-5518.

Loricerinae is a small, distinctive subfamily of ground beetles, comprising only one genus Loricera Latreille. Only one fossil species is known to date. Here, we describe a new species, Loricera groehni sp. nov., belonging to Loricera based on a well-preserved adult in Eocene Baltic amber. Loricera groehni is tentatively attributed to the obsoleta group of the subgenus Loricera s.str. based on the relatively long antennomere 3 and punctate elytral interval 7. The discovery of a new species morphologically close to the extant Loricera species from western China and northern India suggests that the obsoleta group was more widespread in the Eocene than it is at present. The distribution pattern of Chinese Loricera is probably relictual. The fossil species, possessing conspicuous stiff setae on the basal antennomeres, was probably a specialized predator of springtails.
