论战国末秦汉之际巴蜀文化转型的机制

从战国末叶秦灭巴蜀到秦汉之际,是巴蜀文化的转型时期.在这个时期中,巴蜀文化从先秦独立王国形态和民族性质的文化,向秦汉统一帝国内的地域形态和以秦汉文化为符号的中华文化的亚文化转化.巴蜀文化在转型过程中,发生了极为深刻的文化解构、文化重组和文化整合.其结果,一方面,巴蜀文化经过分化和重组,获得了持续发展的动力和生机;另一方面,通过与秦汉文化的整合,使它在保留其精髓的基础上表现出整体进化的新姿态.创造性适应(变革)与连续性发展(继承),成为巴蜀文化转型的重要内容.     

Teachers Moving Forward on a Cultural Self-Awareness Spectrum: Diverse Children,Museums, and Young Adult Literature

This case study research investigated preservice and in-service teachers’ (N = 23) experiences and understandings as they participated in a multicultural children and young adults’ literature course that incorporates visits to a Holocaust museum. A graduate level course was redesigned within a framework of social justice pedagogy by focusing on critical analysis of multicultural literature, teacher inquiry, as well as a civic engagement project. Findings from this study illuminated how this course design encouraged teachers to move beyond a focus on tolerance and acceptance, and toward a social justice orientation through critical exploration of issues such as racism, oppression, and the ways bias and privilege operate within their own lives, schools, and society.
