A reexamination of the reasons for the closure of the Dunhuang Library Cave

Abstract

Cave 17 or the cave library is located on the northern wall in the hallway of Cave 16 in Mogao Caves, Dunhuang. The murals on the cover layer of Cave 16 are closely connected with the reason why the cave library was sealed. The transformation tableaux of the thousand Buddhas on the cover layer of Cave 16 seems to reflect the thought of the Final Dharma, which could be dated in the late Guiyijun period when Dunhuang was ruled by the Cao family. In 1052, the trend of the Final-Dharma thought flourished in the Liao Dynasty. With the frequent communications between the Guiyijun regime and the Liao, this trend came to Dunhuang and merged with the original thought of the Final Dharma in this region, which tremendously impacted the Buddhist community in Dunhuang. So the local Buddhist community made the transformation tableaux on the mural of Cave 16 and also transformed Cave 17 for storing Buddhist texts as a response to the coming Final Dharma. These activities seem to have led to the eventual sealing of Cave 17.

沈阳故宫藏珐琅器

珐琅器是中国古代工艺品中最晚形成的一个品种,俗称景泰蓝。它在中国诞生和推广使用的时间相对较晚,元代时,始由西亚阿拉伯地区和欧洲引入中土,当时称为“大食窑”,以后又有“拂郎嵌”之名（杨伯达《论景泰蓝的起源》,《故宫博物院院刊》1979年9期）,但当时制作和使用量都相对较少。明代,随着宫廷中实用器物越来越走向艺术化,     

莫高窟第138窟智惠性供养像及相关问题研究

本文在对莫高窟第138窟主室东壁门上智惠性供养图像全面分析后,表明了第138窟作为阴家大窟,智惠性与洞窟的密切关系,同时表明此智惠性与《阴处士碑》所记阴嘉政妹安国寺法律并非同一人,而是另有所指。学者们认为此洞窟系张承奉为其母亲营建功德窟的可能性并不大。传统研究认为阴季丰、阴海晏与第138窟的关系问题,也有待作更进一步考察的必要。     

一城两市:近代海州城市格局变迁研究(1855-1938)

清代末期,苏北地区的贸易因大运河的衰败而逐渐转向沿海。王朝试图用业已繁盛的青口港代替淮关的部分功能,因而设计了海州——青口为主线的城市格局。清末民初,沈云沛和许鼎霖等地方士绅逐渐主导了海州,他们通过实业开发、开埠、争取铁路等方式使新浦镇取代没落的青口镇成为海州新的出口,从而形成海州——新浦的城市格局。民国中期,国家主导下陇海铁路及连云港的修筑使新浦镇成为海州的中心城市,连云港成为国家的港口,海州地区形成新浦-连云港的城市格局。海州城市格局的转变既是区域发展的结果,也是海州政治力量变化的反应。然而,海州的内在政治语境和经济困境一直限制着城市的进一步发展。

A new species of Aboilinae (Orthoptera: Prophalangopsidae), Aboilus perbellus, is described and illustrated based on three well-preserved forewings recovered from the Middle–Upper Jurassic Daohugou beds of Inner Mongolia, China. The new species differs from all congeneric forms in its special forewing coloration and features of its wing venation. To date, three types of forewing coloration have been found among different species of Aboilus at Daohugou, suggesting that these taxa inhabited different ecotopes.     

博物馆场域中符号权力与公共性理念的张力——基于布迪厄文化再生产理论的考察

博物馆具有多重属性,在某些层面上甚至体现出充分的张力.一方面,博物馆虽然对所有公众开放,但其知识生产与传播的各个环节渗透着符号权力,使具有较多文化资本的阶层能够保持其优势,维护了社会现有结构的稳定性;另一方面,博物馆也追求公共性理念,努力促进社会公平与民主,推动知识共享与多元参与.总体而言,博物馆在发展过程中朝着公共化...     

科学地研究和宣传党的历史——纪念《关于建国以来党的若干历史问题的决议》通过30周年

中共十一届六中全会通过《关于建国以来党的若干历史问题的决议》至今已经30年了。决议最核心的一条就是确立毛泽东同志的历史地位,坚持和发展毛泽东思想,决议为统一思想,维护全党、全国人民的团结奠定了重要的政治和思想基础,更是我们进一步搞好党史特别是建国后党史的研究、编撰和宣传的重要向导。党史是一门党性很强的学科,不能把党史工作看成是书斋里的事业,它是在思想斗争最前线的一项战斗性的工作。因此,自觉地把党性和科学性有机地结合起来,即怀着强烈的政治责任感,把党史工作当做一项严肃的科学工作来对待,这是我们必须坚持的原则和方向。
