黄帝传说探源

20世纪二三十年代,疑古派学者提出层累地造成中国古史说,对传说时代的五帝史和夏史给予了全面否定,流波滔滔,至今未息。然细考文献,黄帝传说并非始于战国,早在西周即已出现,黄帝也不是层累造作的神话人物,而是中国上古时期部族共同体的一位杰出领袖。从最初的来源上说,黄帝传说是基于历史的真实而非想象的产物,只是历经几千年的沧桑岁月,历史本相不免失真走样,但其中蕴含着事实真相的果粒,不可一概视为虚妄而尽行弃之。可行的做法是精心鉴别这些传说性质的史料,去伪存真,考而后信,过滤出真实的历史信息,用于上古史的重建。充分结合文献和考古资料,深入探讨五帝时代中国早期文明形成的基因和路径,对于坚定文化自信,推动传统文化的创新和发展,无疑具有积极的意义。

诗人希罗多德的做戏式“欺骗”

希罗多德的纪事笔法师承荷马诗作,他的《原史》由诸多大故事构成,每个大故事包含若干子故事,子故事又夹杂小故事。"大流士当王"的故事只能算子故事,古典学界公认,其中极为著名的"政体论辩"段落是《原史》的枢纽。要理解"政体论辩",不可能将这个文本从其故事织体中抽取出来孤立地看待。从头到尾读完"大流士当王"的故事,我们很难不同意这样一种说法:希罗多德的作诗笔法刻意把雅典城邦走向民主政治的经历与大流士当王的经历叠合在了一起。这个谐剧式的故事表明,希罗多德关切一个属于人世的恒在问题:政治共同体必须有王者吗?倘若必须有王者,那么,如何区分王者与僭主?希罗多德未必意在就解决这一问题提出自己的方案,他不过是以诗人身份讲了一个故事,同时呈现了一个严肃的政治哲学问题。因此,我们必须关注,希罗多德如何以作诗方式呈现严肃的政治哲学问题,而这与关注他作为诗人如何写史是一回事。

Evaluation of Several Phases in the Development of Management Accounting

This paper discusses three issues, raised by Relevance Lost （Johnson ＆ Kaplan, 1987）, about historical evaluation of the development of management accounting. The first issue is when management accounting system was formed; the second is how to evaluate its development in subsequent decades; the third is how to evaluate the development of practice and research of management accounting in almost twenty years after Relevance Lost was published. The role of Relevance Lost in practice and theoretical research of management accounting is widely recognized, and the disagreement with it in this paper is in the specific area of the development history of management accounting. The authors of this paper believe that the development, through having its ups and downs over time, is generally speaking a continuous process, not separated by disconnected phases, leaping from one to another. Along with the progress in practice and research, researchers and practitioners are deepening their understanding about the theoretical foundation and practical development of management accounting. The history of development of management accounting is consistent with the process people gradually understand it.

Israel's Image in US and Chinese Media:Discrepancies and Causes

Israel's image is positive in Chinese media, which focuses on China-Israel cooperation and Israel's economy, history culture, science and technology. The image is of a culture-rich nation with a tough ethnic nature and powerful science and technology facets. In US media, Israel's image is negative, with the focus on political polarization, social and racial fragmentation, conflict with Palestine, and deterioration in foreign relations. Chinese and US media have totally opposite directions in topic focus and value identification.

Retaining Truth, Seeking Goodness and Preserving Beauty： Principles of Translating Tsangyang Gyatso＇s Poems Into English

Tsangyang Gyatso＇s poems were widely circulated and still enjoy popularity. He was an influential living Buddha （Renpoche） in Tibetan Buddhism and a talented and legendary historical figure. Nowadays, more and more scholars, poets and translators have devoted to the study of his works. Here we will focus on discussing the English translation of his poems and their value. We analyze texts of the Tsangyang Gyatso＇s Poems （Chinese-English） and seek to further study the translation principles such as ＂retaining truth, seeking goodness and preserving beauty＂. By doing this, we strive to improve the quality of translation, give consideration to the construction of the four elements such as poetic meaning, emotion, tone and intention, to enable the reader to achieve the senses and the acquisition of images, to provide more perfect translation in the ＂Tsangyang Gyatso Vogue＂, to promote the dissemination and sharing of Tibetan culture and to inject new vitality.

Groundwater Management under the Kabu-ido System in Noubi Plain, Japan, 1810s-1860s

The purpose of this paper is to clarify how the Kabu-ido system can be employed to successfully regulate groundwater pumping. This was accomplished by analyzing surviving historical documents, including budgetary notes and a diary. The Kabu-ido system was a customary institution for groundwater management in a ring levee area of the Noubi Plain in Japan that consisted of three programs： restriction of groundwater pumping through a permit system, groundwater pricing and economic compensation. The system was created in the 1810s and survived for 100 years. This paper covers the Kabu-ido system from the 1810s to the 1860s, the first half of the 100-year history. Excessive groundwater pumping is not a new environmental problem. Although many case studies have investigated remedial actions, few have investigated how local residents addressed the problem before the 20th century because of a lack of documents. The Kabu-ido system is an exception in which of the procedure was documented in writing. The historical data indicate that it was a pioneering institution for groundwater management.

Glacier change in the western Nyainqentanglha Range,Tibetan Plateau using historical maps and Landsat imagery:1970-2014

Glaciers in the western Nyainqentanglha Range are an important source of water for social and economic development. Changes in their area were derived from two Chinese glacier inventories; one from the 197o 1：5o,ooo scale Chinese Topographic Maps series and the other from Landsat TM/ETM＋ images acquired in 2009. Analyses also included boundaries from 2000 and 2014 Landsat TM/ETM＋ images. A continuing and accelerating shrinkage of glaciers occurred here from 1970 to 2014, with glacier area decreasing by 244.38±29.48 km^2 （27.4%±3.3%） or 0.62%±0.08% a^-1. While this is consistent with a changing climate, local topographic parameters, such as altitude, slope, aspect and debris cover, are also important influences. Recession is manifested by a rise in the elevation of the glacier terminus. The shrinkage of glaciers with NE, N and NW orientations exceeded that of other aspects, and glaciers with SE and S orientations experienced less shrinkage. Changes in the average positive difference of glaciation （PDG） show that the western Nyainqentanglha Range has unfavorable conditions for glacier maintenance which is being exacerbated by a warming climate since 1970.

Thereby the problems with existing washing machines such as heavy twist and wear, uneven wash of clothes, long washing time, and high water and power consumption are solved.

Controls of seed quantity and quality on seedling recruitment of smith fir along altitudinal gradient in southeastern Tibetan Plateau

Alpine treeline ecotones are harsh environment for tree establishment due to low temperature. Tree establishment at treelines requires favorable climate, suitable microsites, and viable seeds. But most researches have been addressed treeline microclimate and its effects on tree regeneration, the knowledge of seed quantity and quality and its controls on seedling recruitment were limited. We measured seed rain, soil seed bank, seed germination rate and seedling recruitment in natural forests in combination with seed transplanting manipulation to evaluate the controls of seed quantity and quality on seedling recruitment of Abies georgei var. smithii （smith fir） along altitudinal gradient, with focus on treeline ecotone in the Sygera Mountains, southeastern Tibetan Plateau. Both seed quantity and seed quality of smith fir decreased with increasing altitude and was thereby associated with decline in seed germination rate. Seed quantity and seedling recruitment were better in north-facing slope than in south slope. The treeline ecotone above 42oo m appeared as the threshold altitude to sharply decrease seed quality and seedling recruitment. The emergence and overwintering rates of transplanting seeds from 3600-38oo m also went down remarkably above 4200 m at north-facing slope. It also underpins the fact that treeline ecotone is the bottleneck of seedling recruitment. Our results suggest that seed quantity and quality are the principal limitation of treeline upward advance. This study also provides evidence to support stable treeline position in southeastern Tibetan Plateau.

Prospective Consensus Building-Ethical Consideration on History of Reason and List of Risks＊

In consensus building process in medicine, it is said that it is crucial for its participants to understand why each stakeholder, patient, his/her family, physician, nurse, etc., in decision-making has his/her own opinion. In order to understand this condition more deeply, I develop the notion of ＂reason of opinion＂ to characterize the process as ＂prospective consensus building.＂ This prospective consensus building should satisfy the requirements of having ＂history of reason＂ and ＂list of risks.＂ The former requirement, history of reason, can be characterized by making clear when one started to form the reason of an opinion, how one formed the reason, what kind of relationship is supposed to be between the present opinion and its reason, and what kind of result is expected to come out after a decision making. The latter requirement, the list of risks, should display what kind of outcomes are supposed to come out in each alternative of the decision making. Prospective consensus building makes it possible, firstly, for the stakeholders to understand the patient＇s needs more deeply. For the patient, secondly, the each stakeholder would be able to become aware of his/her own sense of value and to confirm what he/she expects from the result of his/her decision-making. For all the stakeholders, thirdly, it would make it possible to decrease the amount of risks of misunderstanding and to share their expectations for their well-being. Finally, the stakeholders can reach a satisfactory consensus and find a way to the better solution.

Characterization of stereostructure by X-ray and technology of extracting in combination hydrolysis in situ of acankoreanogenin from leaves of Acanthopanax gracilistylus W.W.Smith

To study the stereostructure by X-ray and the technology of extracting acankoreanogenin from the leaves of Acanthopanax graeilistylus W. W. Smith （AGS）, the crystal structure was measured with a Bruker APEX-Ⅱ area-detector diffractometer instrument and the technology of extracting in combination hydrolysis in situ （ECHS） was compared with these of traditional methods. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P2b with unit cell parameters： a=（8.3652±0.0006） nm, b=（24.721±0.002） nm, and c=（14.5587±0.0011） nm, α=90°, β=97.850 （4） °, γ=90 °, V=2982.51 nm3, Dc= 1.179 mg/m3, and the molecular number （Z） of elementary structures was 2. The comparisons show that the extraction rate of acankoreanogenin with ECHS methods is much higher than that of traditional methods. Then, central composite design-response surface methodology （CCD-RSM） was adopted for optimizing the extraction rate of ECHS methods. The optimized values of extraction parameters are as follows： for the for extraction process of acid hydrolysis are that extraction time 110.8 min, solvent-herb ratio 11.5 and acid content 5.25%; the best extraction process of basic hydrolysis are that extract time 120 min, solvent-herb ratio 8.7 and the alkali content 8.79%. Finally, the extracts were purified with decolorizing carbon after alkali solution and acid-isolation and purity of acankoreanogenin was 98.7%.

The Deficiency and Embarrassment of Chinese Music History

Chinese music history is a rigorous discipline of analyzing, studying and describing Chinese music development and evolution process, which has typical historical factors. Chinese music covers a wide range, which includes China traditional opera, minority drama, local and regional opera, and the song and dance drama and music with the sense of the times.However, in the music history research and teaching in our country currently, because the current art education of the old system and the traditional mechanical reasons, study on the history of music lacks of effective view in the breadth and depth.Because of these reasons, there is a lack of the object of study and research methods, so in the course of study on the China music history, it has some deficiency and embarrassing phenomenon.In this paper, it takes the analysis on deletion and embarrassing situations in our country at present on the history of music, and finds out the corresponding solutions for it.

Some Remarks Regarding Originality and Historical Transformations of Chopin＇s Mazurkas, as Based on the Mathematical Systematic Method of the Tonal Structure Analysis

Musical analysis enables us to study the various elements of a musical work, for example texture, m dynamics, or harmony （including tonality）. Thanks to musical analysis we are able to trace the compos technique, or assess the artistic value of given work. In addition to traditional, descriptive methods of e it ody, onal music analysis, we can observe in 20th century the development of methods based on science （mathematics, otherwise statistics）. Such methodologies allow us to obtain a strict understanding of the structure of musical pieces Applying mathematical methods for musical analysis seems very reasonable in relation to the output of Frederic Chopin, due to large originality of the elements of musical pieces of this composer. Present paper was written as a result of research related to the applying of numerical method of analysis for exploring the tonal structure of Chopin＇s works. The author＇s research method enables a strict analysis of the chord＇s domination that can be classified under given key （range）--taking into consideration the harmonic functions. By the method of analysis we can get charts that depict whole diatonic vertical music material of the given piece. The main objective of the present study is to describe observations on the high uniqueness in the tonal construction of selected Chopin＇s mazurkas, especially, when compared to the miniatures of other composers of the first half of the 19th century and previously analyzed Chopin＇s pieces： etudes, preludes, and songs.

Discussion on the Coexistence and Fusion between Music and Literature

In the development process of human history, music and literature have their own unique characteristics, and also are closely related to each other. Both own a very long history and maintain an interdependent relationship with each other. The dances accompanied by music in China＇ s primitive tribes and the lyric poetry in the ancient Greek times can be said to be the coexistence form of music and literature. Although music and literature have undergone a whole development process from a unified development to an independent development, there are links always maintained between the two art forms. In this paper, the coexistence and fusion between music and literature are specifically introduced from different aspects.

The oceanic cycles of the transition metals and their isotopes

The stable isotope systems of the transition metals potentially provide constraints on the current and past operation of the biological pump,and on the state of ocean redox in Earth history.Here we focus on two exemplar metals,nickel(Ni)and zinc(Zn).The oceanic dissolved pool of both elements is isotopically heavier than the known inputs,implying an output with light isotope compositions.The modern oceanic cycle of both these elements is dominated by biological uptake into photosynthesised organic matter and output to sediment.It is increasingly clear,however,that such uptake is associated with only very minor isotope fractionation.We suggest that the isotopic balance is instead closed by the sequestration of light isotopes to sulphide in anoxic and organic-rich sediments,so that it is ocean chemistry that controls these isotope systems,and suggesting a different but equally interesting array of questions in Earth history that can be addressed with these systems.

Seeing Rape as Rape： Philosophical and Historical Perspectives on Marriage Law

In this paper, I critically challenge the ability of legal reforms to recognize and integrate the way in which a rape victim sees rape. Current limitations to the law are mainly due to the accepted patriarchal view on law as a form of objective and rational knowledge, outside which there are only impracticable and irrational views. I investigate the case of marriage jurisprudence in the UK, as a prominent example, because it has long accepted marital rape as objectively and rationally part of a wife＇s duty. Even though changes have occurred which improve the marital rape jurisdiction and prejudicial disbelief concerning a woman＇s private life is still used in the courts to question the credibility of the victim. Over the past year, extensive efforts have been made to reform the management of rape cases. Whilst there is a need to acknowledge the seriousness of the accusation with rigorous legal principles which provide appropriate safeguards for the accused person as well as the complainant, especially bearing in mind the often ＂private＂ circumstances, with a concomitant lack of witnesses, it remains the case that the rate of attribution in attempts to secure successful prosecutions in rape case remains overwhelming. I show how a Wittgensteinian approach to law would take into consideration the shape ofgendered lives as they are experienced, and hence would not accept just one legal interpretation of marital law. The phenomenon of＂seeing-as＂ in Wittgenstein＇s philosophy can support the experience of being jolted into appreciating the feminist aspect of consent in marital sexual relationships.

Family history influences the early onset of hepatocellular carcinoma

AIM: To evaluate the relationship between a positive family history of primary liver cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development in Korean HCC patients. METHODS: We studied a total of 2242 patients diagnosed with HCC between January 1990 and July 2008, whose family history of primary liver cancer was clearly described in the medical records.positive family history of HCC and 2077 (92.6%) did not. The male to female ratio was 3.6:1, and the major causes of HCC were chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in 75.1%, chronic hepatitis C virus infection in 13.2% and alcohol in 3.1%. The median ages at diag- nosis in the positiveand negative-history groups were 52 years (range: 29-79 years) and 57 years (range: 18-89 years), respectively (P < 0.0001). Furthermore, among 1713 HCC patients with HBV infection, the number of patients under 45 years of age out of 136 patients with positive family history was 26 (19.1%), whereas those out of 1577 patients with negative family history was 197 (12.5%), suggesting that a positive family history may be associated with earlier development of HCC in the Korean population (P = 0.0028). CONCLUSION: More intensive surveillance maybe recommended to those with a positive family history of HCC for earlier diagnosis and proper management especially when HBV infection is present.

Historical Reconstruction of the Literary Family

The process of reconstructing the history of the literary family is also a process of logical construction. By focusing on the transformation of political and cultural institutions and sorting through the historical evolution both of literature and of distinguished families, we can describe the historical evolution of the literary family in Chinese dynastic history, that is, the succession and the orderly progress of its three forms over three periods. The first period from the Han Dynasty to the Northern and Southern Dynasties saw the emergence of＂literary families of classical scholars,＂ and their evolutionary successors, ＂literary families with hereditary power.＂ In the second period of Sui and Tang Dynasties, this latter group coexisted and to some extent merged with ＂literary families of scholar-officials＂ in a composite form. The third period of Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties witnessed the continuation and transformation of the mainstream form of ＂literary families of scholar-officials.＂ In addition to the above groups, there existed a multiplicity of other forms. To construct an academic paradigm of the history of the literary family, we need to integrate four levels of research into an organic unity： research on individual literary families, research on families in specific periods and in specific regions, and research on the literary family across history.
