试论唐代山水画的基本特征及其新变——从第217窟、第103窟的《化城喻品》到《胡人鼓乐骑象图》

莫高窟中描绘经变画《法华经之化城喻品》始于隋代,经初、中唐发展,至盛唐时期达到高峰,晚唐之后就较少看到。隋和初唐的《化城喻品》重在描绘取宝路途中所遭遇的艰难险阻,到盛唐时期,《化城喻品》既表现取宝路上的艰难不易,又更着意于渲染危岩山峦中的山青水秀,在敦煌莫高窟壁画中占有非常重要的地位。盛唐早期和中期的第217窟和第103窟的经变画《化城喻品》承袭关系明显,而第103窟的经变画《化城喻品》与藏于日本正仓院的琵琶捍拨绘《胡人鼓乐骑象图》,在构图、布局、山水等方面,亦有诸多的相似处,表明三者之间存在着密切的关系,从中可看到唐代山水画的基本特征、变化与发展。

Sojourners in Time： Revisiting Thornton Wilder＇s The Happy Journey to Trenton and Camden

Thornton Wilder＇s works are often characterized as transcending time. Our Town （1938） remains a widely produced piece of dramatic literature nearly 75 years after winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1938. However, many of Wilder＇s one-act plays are less well-known and subsequently are less often produced. The Happy Journey to Trenton and Camden （193 l） predates Our Town （1938） and yet is written in a similar style, utilizes the stage manager motif, and reflects upon issues of life and death found in Our Town （1938）, The Bridges of San Luis Rey （1927） and many other of Wilder＇s works. ＂Sojourners in Time＂ reflects upon the time period and place in Wilder＇s one-acts within the context of a contemporary journey in order to determine what, if any, aspects of this piece translate to current times.

The Idea of ＂Architecture Stage＂： A Non-material Architecture Theory

The purpose of this study is to find ＂the new theory＂ in the process of having quality ＂form＂ in architecture field which is usually visualized by the ruler through his ideology of his architectural work which is created by his architects. The study is about an urban design in architectural field related with space-power-knowledge. To reveal the meaning of the architecture objects is need to analyze the architectural object ＂form＂ as the culture-material, and to reveal the meaning of the objects through the hidden things related to the presence of the metaphysical data. To find ＂the new theory＂ used ＂grounded theory research＂, the method is part of qualitative research which refers to Glaser and Strauss.

Assessment of Exposure to Toxic Metals through Food with Reference to Some Towns in Russia

In big countries, nutrition profiles and foodstuffs chemical contamination may differ significantly between different regions and even between areas within a region. Thus one should assess toxic exposure through food on not only national but also local level. We have developed and distributed a personal questionnaire for estimating average daily consumption of 44 types of foodstuffs, and for 12 of them-the percentage contribution of the main sources of supply. Depending on data analysis results, we choose the most important foodstuffs for determining their chemical contamination. We tested this approach in 7 industrial towns and found differences among them, as well as among children and adults, with regard to toxic exposure through food. People with a relatively high income consume more milk, cheese, meat, fish, poultry and fruit but less bread and potatoes than those with medium or low income. About 80% of consumed potatoes are grown locally and thus depend on each area＇s contamination. Although daily intakes of toxicants do not exceed WHO tolerable levels, their contribution to the total environmentally dependent dose is important. The approach developed by us can be used in epidemiological and risk assessment studies when they are performed on regional or local level.

Brand Origin Recognition Accuracy on High-Involved Products： Cellphone Brands in China as a Case

The competition anaong cellphone brands in the world is getting fiercer and fiercer in 3G era. This paper intends to examine the level of consumers＇ brand origin recognition accuracy of high-involved products （referred to hereafter as BORAx）, investigate the factors facilitating BORAHI, and trace the implications of BORAHHI on brand evaluation, especially in cellphone industry. The BORAHI is measured in China through cellphones as the product object and a consumers＇ cognitive model of BORAhn is built. The paper concludes that： Chinese urban consumers have a fairly high BORAHHI; better-educated consumers demonstrate higher BORAHHI scores for foreign brands; rmle consumers have higher BORAHI scores than fe-rrules consumers; consumers lower in ethnocen-trism exhibit higher level of BORAHI for foreign brands, and ethnocentrism has no effect on BO-RAHI for local brands; international experience is not related to BORAHI for local brands; internation-al experience is positively related to education and income respectively, but it is negatively related to age. This research finds that the consumer behavior in China, one of emerging markets, is significantly different from that in developed countries.

City Networks of Online Commodity Services in China:Empirical Analysis of Tmall Clothing and Electronic Retailers

City networks have been a critical topic in the fields of urban geography and regional economics. Numerous studies have explored city networks, focusing mainly on infrastructure and industrial networks. Unlike traditional urban network of which the major measuring indexes are population sizes and entity industries, online commodity service networks could reflect well the influencing of emerging economies, especially the Internet economy, on city networks. This study analyzes and reveals structural features of China's city networks through online commodity services, providing the internet economic approach on city networks. Results indicate that the core cities of online commodity service networks are mainly concentrated in eastern coastal areas. In addition, spatial polarization and layer structure of network connections are obvious, descending from the centers in eastern China to peripheral cities in central and western China. Online commodity services of different cities show apparent differences and uncertainties in terms of specialization rates of international connection, which presents a tendency toward diversification. Online commodity service networks are not only associated with goods production, supply, and consumption in physical space but also reflect virtual information, capital, and technology flows, thus providing a new empirical approach for understanding city networks in information and internet economic age.

Selection of leading industries for coal resource cities based on coupling coordination of industry's technological innovation

Taking the city of Qitaihe is as an example in order to provide practical methods for the selection of leading industries for coal resource cities, this paper establishes the specific operation scheme for selection of leading industries according to the actual situation of coal resource cities based on the theory of coupling coordination together with the coupling coordination for technological innovation. The results show that the degree for coupling coordination of the technological innovation for each alternative industry differentiates with the development of coal resource cities. For example, the average degree of food processing industry from agricultural produce is 0.9. Therefore, coal resource cities should develop some industries related to coal industry, such as coking industry, some chemical and medicines industry and non-metallic mineral products manufacturing, in the near future, however, some industries with greater market and influence potentials and low carbon emissions should be attached much importance to in the future.

Tenure of Urban Land： Structure, Form and Transformation in Ribeirao Preto, Brazil

The purpose of this study is to explore the urban morphological aspects of cities governed by the juridical regime of emphyteusis, a recurrent situation in the northeastern part of the state of Silo Paulo, Brazil, with special attention to the city of Ribeirao Preto. The concession of lands to the Catholic Church was a recurring practice in Brazil during the colonial and imperial periods, when the cities were being established. As these lands were intended for the formation of patrimonial goods to show the devotion of the residents to a Catholic saint, the lands were not allowed to be commercialized. The tenure reveals a relation in which there is an owner--the landlord--who has direct control of the urban land. This owner allows another--the leaseholder--the useful domain of the land, thus giving the latter the right to use the land, the obligation to pay an annual tax and the responsibility to give the owner a percentage of the sales generated from the land. In 1845, farmers donated a tract of land to be used to glorify Silo Sebastiao. This land is now the city of Ribeirao Preto, and it is this conjuncture that defined the structure and the transformation of the original urban form of the current city.

Urban Consumer Attitudes to Fresh Produce Safety in China

The objective of this study was to explain the determinants of the fresh vegetables purchase decision by Chinese urban consumers in Beijing including awareness and attitudes to food safety, and their willingness to pay （WTP） more for specific safety characteristics when buying fresh vegetables. The research rationale arises out of a history of food safety scares and scandals in China, and a national government response to promote quality assurance and safety through labelling. The primary hypothesis was that an understanding of food safety systems and product labelling, and trust in supply chain integrity would be key determinants in consumer willingness to purchase and pay more for safety assured vegetables. Based on a questionnaire survey of consumers in Beijing, the analysis found that the major factors underlying the purchase decision of fresh vegetables were product freshness, convenience and competitive price rather than assured product labelling. The decisions whether to purchase assurance-labelled vegetables and WTP more for chemical residue-free product were analysed by binomial and ordinal multinomial logit modelling respectively. It revealed a WTP moreof between 20% and 40%. Monthly household income was a key determinant of both quality assured product and WTP, together with degree of concern over residues, trust in retailer and assurance labels and place of purchase. The results suggest much still remains to be done to build trust though rigorous monitoring and enforcement of food safety standards to improve supply chain integrity and consumer confidence.

含贝周遭见化城——《法华经·化城喻品》与宝顶山大佛湾造像之关系

文中以大足宝顶山大佛湾摩崖造像中出现的几例《妙法莲华经·化城喻品》为依据的题材和碑刻为主,结合其与周边造像的关系进行了探讨,认为这些题材的造像,不局限于一龛一窟,而是分散在多处,它们在其间既与周边造像有着密切的联系,又暗示宝顶山对信众而言具有"化城"性质。并认为大佛湾出现的多例鬈发人像以及誓词,与"化城喻品"中导师形象具有契合之处,其目的既体现出营建者的艰苦卓绝之志,也体现出对信众的谆谆教诲之意。从此角度来看,大佛湾具有较为浓厚的向世俗信众说教意味的性质。其目的不但表现赵智凤自身修行佛教的经历和观念,还表现出引导信众信仰佛法的弘法意愿。
