镇海老屋

我在梦里见过我祖居地宁波镇海的老屋. 我并不出生在镇海,中年以前也无缘面识我父亲出生的地方.像我这样在户口簿的籍贯栏目里填甲地,而在出生栏里却填乙地的人,如今是越来越多了.比如我就生于上海,我的儿子北上生在了鞍山,到我孙子已生在了北京.报户口的时候,我儿子不假思索就给孩子写下籍贯"宁波"两字,我看了直发愣.     

《周易》中的古歌

《周易》本是我国先秦时代的占筮书。自从孔子作《易传》以来，学者又相继挖掘出其中深湛的哲学内涵。至于人们留意到《周易》中的古歌，是较晚近的事情了。对《周易》古歌进行系统的研究，则开始于20世纪新文化运动以后。这一研究拓展了《周易》研究的领域，扩充了先秦诗学研究的范围，对《易》学和《诗》学两个重要领域的研究都产生了推动作用。

来到乌江龚滩镇,我目睹并亲历了摇摆舞及歌谣之乡:那江风怒号的乌江峡谷;一栋栋原始简朴的吊脚屋楼;几百手牵手的土家乡民;隔山对唱的山歌……乌江龚湍龚滩处于巴、夷之地武陵地域,地处乌江急流东岸,三面环水,一面着陆。此地以土家族为主,苗、仡佬、回、侗、布依、汉族等多民族聚居。在龚滩,乌江水深流急,崖岸陡峭,急湍险恶,汹涌翻滚,故原名龚湍。这里,古代是通往五溪和夜郎的咽喉,为黔、蜀要道,渝、黔、湘、鄂交通重镇。翻越了武陵龙头山脉而来的龚滩土家先民,好不容易找到了乌江边上缓坡的凤凰山麓。横亘在眼前的高深的峡谷,悬岩峭壁下咆…
