Detection of parasite eggs from a moat encircling the royal palace of Silla, the ancient Korean Kingdom

We conducted a paleo-parasitological study on soil samples from the ancient moat ruins of Weolseong palace, of the Silla Dynasty (BC 57–AD 935) of Korea. Based on the cultural remains found in the mud-soil layer, the layer was precipitated onto the floor of a moat between the 5th and 8th centuries AD. We found Trichuris trichiura eggs only in that mud-soil layer, whereas no parasite eggs were identified in the other archaeological strata of the ruins. As T. trichiura eggs are shed only in human feces, we speculated that palace toilet contents were continually drained into the moat; therefore, at a certain point in time after construction, the moat finally became a ditch around the palace. Structures in the stone embankments of the moat, possibly designed to make the water flow continuously in one direction, might reflect the Silla people's efforts to alleviate the ever-increasing problems inherent in a moat.     

从工会法律地位的演进看工业化时期英国政府劳资政策的嬗变(1799—1974)

自1799年《反结社法》颁布至《1974年工会和劳资关系法》出台的近两百年间,英国工会的法律地位经历了从非法状态到被有限承认再到享有法定特权的漫长历程,伴随着工会地位的这种转换,英国政府的劳资政策也相应发生了从立法打压到建立仲裁调解制度再到确立集体谈判制度的历史嬗变。

Amplification and sequencing of Trichuris trichiura ancient DNA extracted from archaeological sediments

Despite high prevalence of Trichuris trichiura infection, PCR-based analysis on T. trichiura from archaeological samples has not been established so far. In the present study, we sought to perform PCR-based amplification of T. trichiura aDNA using the sediments from medieval tomb of Korea. The presence of Trichuris eggs were first detected by microscopic observation; then confirmed by PCR-based aDNA analysis. Obtained sequence showed 100% homology to that of the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSUrRNA) gene of T. trichiura but distinct from that of other Trichuris species. PCR-based aDNA analysis in this study can serve as effective method to confirm the presence of T. trichiura eggs in the soils or coprolites collected from archaeological sites.     

《野玫瑰》风波的再解读

<野玫瑰>是抗战中期西南联大教授陈铨的一个话剧作品,以美女、间谍、爱情、汉奸等元素反映沦陷区人民反对日本侵略者的斗争,情节曲折离奇,人物复杂多面,搬上舞台后立即引起轰动,受到国民政府教育部的嘉奖.然而在抗战中期国共冲突政治背景下,该剧的上演引发了国共两党在文化领域的一场激烈冲突,誉之者以为是现实主义杰作,贬之者斥之为是对中国人民抗战精神的亵渎.本文依据可靠史料重新解读风波的来垄去脉,辨析争论双方在政治理论、文艺表现手法等方面的不同取向,探讨争论背后的用意和故事.
