Multiculturalism in taiwan

This study explores the contradictions and challenges in the development of multiculturalism in cultural policy in Taiwan. The approach used involves an exposition and critique of the two dominant models of multiculturalism in Western theory – namely, liberal multiculturalism and postmodern multiculturalism. From the perspective of liberal multiculturalism, I argue that ignorance of multicultural citizenship limits the scope and impact of multicultural policy. I then go on to suggest that postmodern multiculturalism addresses problems related to the visibility of cultural differences and shifting identities. Through analysing the various contradictions and challenges inherent in these two approaches, this study hopes to identify appropriate forms of multiculturalism capable of taking into account both multicultural citizenship and the dynamics of cultural diversity.     

Residual doses and sensitivity change of post IR IRSL signals from potassium feldspar under different bleaching conditions

The residual doses and sensitivity change for potassium-rich feldspar (K-feldspar) have been studied using the post-infrared infrared stimulated luminescence (pIRIR) and multi-elevated-temperature post-IR IRSL (MET-pIRIR) protocols. Laboratory simulated poorly-bleached and well-bleached samples were those K-feldspar grains bleached using a solar simulator for 10 minutes and 8 hours, respectively. The residual doses rise with stimulation temperature and time. The poorly-bleached sample has larger residual doses than the well-bleached sample, especially at high stimulation temperatures. The high-temperature pIRIR signals contain a large amount of hard-to-bleach signals. A decrease of luminescence sensitivity was observed after conducting a high-temperature-treatment in the measurement cycles. The sensitivity decreases significantly between the first and the second cycle. The extent of decrease in sensitivity shows a clear temperature trend. The higher the stimulation temperature of pIRIR signals is, the larger the sensitivity decreases. This decrease is more severe for the poorly-bleached sample than for the well-bleached sample, and could possibly lead to problems in sensitivity correction.     

长城保护工程勘察设计工作回顾性分析

本文通过对2000年以来长城保护方案及有关批复意见的系统梳理,重点从勘测、勘察、设计定位与保护原则、工程技术手段及设计文本与图纸等方面对目前勘察设计中存在的共性问题进行了系统分析;同时,根据不同结构类型的长城,还对现存主要病害和技术措施进行了抽样分析.在此基础上,本文从保护规划体系、立项审核、保护维修工作原则、勘察设计要求及项目实施与管理等方面提出了建议.     

千手观音造像髹漆贴金层修复方法研究

作为近年我国修复保护项目的重要工程之一,“大足石刻千手观音造像抢救性保护工程”髹漆贴金层修复是此次修复工程的重点和难点之一.考虑到千手观音的综合价值,以及作为宗教类文物的特殊性,贴金层该如何修复影响着整个保护工程的最终效果.2013年7月,修复工程组技术人员完成了针对髹漆贴金修复效果的本体试验,并得到了专家认可.本文主要介绍此次试验的前期准备和具体实验内容,讨论保护理论与修复操作的实践结合办法.     

贵州银子坛墓地出土铜锡器的初步分析

为研究黔西地区铜器时代金属制作技术及水平,本文采用金相显微镜和扫描电镜,对贵州银子坛墓地出土13件铜器和2件锡器进行了金相观察和化学成分分析,发现中水银子坛墓地出土的战国到西汉时代的铜器,有红铜、锡青铜和铜锡铅合金多种材质,而锡器有纯锡器以及锡铅合金,合金配比已具有一定的水平。制作技术有铸造和锻造工艺,并能应用冷热加工技艺。本文对研究古夜郎地区金属器的制作技术有一定的价值。     

《左传》女性人物称名的文化意义

《左传》中人物的称名十分复杂,反映了春秋时期的各种社会关系和文化现象。《左传》中女性人物的称名较男性简单,而且命名规律更为明显,体现了当时的血亲家族观念和婚姻文化。     

庄浪出土汉代铜环权实测对比初探

权衡是我国古代衡器的总称,汉代权衡的器形分鼻钮形和圆环形两种。在甘肃省出土的汉代权衡文物中,鼻钮形的较多,且多为石质。圆环形权衡文物,以1972年定西口镇出土的5件环权(其1为石权,余皆铜权)最具代表,除此,未见相关出土报道。1967年在农田水利基本建设中,甘肃省庄浪县朱店镇吴沟村村民张东仓在一土坑汉墓中挖出一件灰陶“魂瓶”,从中发现铜环权11枚,五铢铜钱4枚,全部上缴县博物馆收藏。由于当时文物管理上的混乱,把后来零星收藏来的另外4枚铜环权混在一起,分不清楚,所以共有15枚(见图),环权全系青铜质地,呈扁平状环形,外径,厚度不一。…     

从[f]声母缺失看陕南镇坪移民

陕南镇坪话属西南官话,但具体所属,尚无定论。本文通过镇坪方言[f]声母缺失,追根溯源,证明镇坪移民有可能来自湖北应山,而非学界所认为的黄州和麻城。黄州和麻城话都有声母[f]和[■],镇坪话没有。而早前移民到黄州和麻城的江西人,他们的方言也包含[f]声母,可证明黄州和麻城并非镇坪移民。两地县志载明成化年间大批应山人曾逃难至荆襄,而当时政府正引导荆襄民众移民至镇坪,开荒种地,进一步证明镇坪移民可能来自湖北应山。
