奥运圣火为何要由女祭司点燃

由最高女祭司点燃奥运圣火,其实和古希腊的传统有关。在希腊神话中,火是赫菲斯托斯的神圣象征,是普罗米修斯从宙斯手中偷得赠送给人类的礼物。因此在每个古希腊城邦的中心,都有一个燃烧长明圣火的祭坛,而城邦居民每家每户也都有长明圣火,以供奉女灶神赫斯提亚。

谈《山海经》的祖先崇拜和英雄崇拜

《山海经》作为我国重要的典籍之一,具有多学科的价值。本文从祖先崇拜和英雄崇拜的视角对《山海经》的民俗学价值予以探究,探讨祖先崇拜时适当地与同样产生年代较早的壮族、瑶族祖先崇拜加以比较,从中可以窥见二者惊人的相似性。     

古希腊奥运会衰落的原因--竞技精神的消弥

古希腊奥运会衰落的原因很大程度上是由于参加比赛的运动员奥运竞技精神的消弥。这其中体育价值体系的变化对奥运会参赛者的身份产生了深刻的影响,富家子弟不但越来越少参加比赛,而且还嘲笑那些刻苦锻炼的公民。人们的思想和政治道德观念也发生了深刻的变化。公民们已丧失了从前的爱国主义精神,人人贪图安逸、追求享受,而对本城邦的安危漠不关心。古希腊人对冠军的极度崇拜为竞技职业化推波助澜。     

浅论高中生如何比较欣赏中外古代雕塑

一、中国古代较少纯粹的雕塑艺术品,这是一般人不重视中国古代雕塑的主要原因 西方雕塑发源于古代希腊.古希腊人重视人体,将神塑造成完美的有血有肉的人.他们崇拜神,也崇拜和神一样完美的英雄--战士与运动家.在古希腊人心目中"神"是完美的人,对"神"的赞美实际上是对人的颂扬,如此形成传统,在西方世代相传,成为一种纯粹的雕塑艺术.

漏洞百出的教育

Many college freshmen arrive woefully unprepared to do college work, and as disadvantaged populations continue to grow, the share of the American work force that has made it through college is expected to plummet. Many experts blame that educational failure not just on high schools but also on colleges. School & College, a special report by The Chronicle, looks at efforts to fix the system. What reforms would better prepare students for college? What should schools and colleges be doing differently? How should state and federal officials help?     

只要努力,不要后悔

There are numbers of crossroads on our long and unpredictable life journey where we totally have no idea about which direction to choose. No matter what our decision is, we should not turn back, but face the music and go ahead instead.

Sister Carrie, an Adherent of Desires

Sister Carrie is one of the most controversial characters in American literature.Thought as a "fallen woman" firstly,she was defined as a "new woman" by some critics later. However, by digging into the motivaton behind the whole process of Carrie's "success", the relationship between Carrie and her creator (the author), the social conditions of then American, it can be found that Carrie has never been free-standing on her thought and she has never found her real-sdf even after becoming a famous actress. In a society dominated by mass consumerism Carrie is only an adherent of her own desires. She also is a representative of all those country girls flooded into cities, a symbol and a sacrifice of the urbanization of America in a time countryside was overcome by cities.

The Reader Response Approach to Teaching of English Literature

During interview with English majors, it was found that a majority of students expressed disappointment with their experience of English literature classes. Students' dislike of learning English literature appears to be the major problem of teaching English literature in China. Reader response approach is a good way to solve this problem. In this paper, I explain the rationale behind the reader response approach, such as its origin, definition, features, assumptions, and strategies. Then I illustrate how reader response approach works as a teaching strategy by presenting several teaching models. At last I evaluate its usefuiness for teachers and present the advantages of reader response approach in Chinese context.
