Diagnostic analysis of the lesions and stability of Michelangelo's David

This work presents an account of the results of diagnostic analyses on the lesions that were first detected in Michelangelo's David in the mid-1800s. After summarizing the events that may have affected the statue's stability and the state of deformation, the authors present the results of the Finite Elements Method (FEM) tests conducted on the digital model of the statue's surface. The analysis of these results made it possible to identify the static conditions that generated the cracks in the lower part of the left leg and in the tree trunk of the David. Lastly, the current situation was analyzed from the perspective of both deformation and stresses, evaluating the statue's stability also as regards its structural response to the seismic activity at the level expected for the Florence area.     

The Impact of David Bearman on Modern Archival Thinking: An Essay of Personal Reflection and Critique

This essay is a preliminary assessment of David Bearman as the leading archival thinker of the late twentieth century. Bearman has revolutionized thinking in archival circles around the world by offering a defence of traditional archival notions of provenance, evidence, recordness, and contextuality that equals the noblest statements of a Hilary Jenkinson, and by positing a relevant, dynamic, engaged future for archivists to transform the Information Age into a Record-Keeping Age. The essay is both a personal reflection and critical analysis. There are three main themes: an assessment of Bearman's ideas and their overall importance to general archival theory; a more specific exposition of the nature and importance of the University of Pittsburgh Project and of where Bearman sees that its results are leading archivists and their profession and institutions in future; and a critique of some of the implications, if not the conscious intentions, of his ideas and methods that seem to exclude the cultural, historical, and heritage dimensions and uses of archives, public or private. The overall aim of the essay is to push the archival discourse to the next stage by challenging and constructively critiquing as well as extolling the work of this archival pioneer.     

《瓦尔登湖》的内蕴与基督教的精神向度

“死亡”与“救赎”是基督教文化的核心观念,而梭罗的散文代表作《瓦尔登湖》正表现出了强烈的死亡意识和救赎意识,并由此奠定了《瓦尔登湖》的精神结构与话语系统。对死亡的关注和罪恶的反思,是梭罗的基督教文化精神的充分体现,而其深广与执着的救赎意识更是将这种文化精神推向了极致。     

也谈归纳法的有效性证明问题

归纳法曾受到英国哲学家休谟的质疑,在哲学史上对归纳法有效性的证明也存在许多争论.运用唯物辩证法从归纳客体、认识与实践、归纳与演绎关系、逻辑蕴涵四个维度对归纳法有效性进行证明,并对其在实际操作中有效性的保证措施及其在科学发现中的合理运用策略作出探讨.     

《蝴蝶君》:两极间的摇摆——黄哲伦的文化策略分析

黄哲伦的《蝴蝶君》对普契尼歌剧《蝴蝶夫人》的解构和颠覆,反映了美国华裔作家对西方文化的东方主义构想的抵制与反抗。但《蝴蝶君》呈现的另一种东方主义,让我们看到了身处两种文化冲突中的美国华裔作家既要力图摆脱西方主流文化强势影响,寻求自身文化主体地位的准确定位,又要争取主流文化认同的矛盾心态。《蝴蝶君》是黄哲伦文化策略的体现。     

论黄哲伦在《蝴蝶君》中对东方主义的不完全解构

美籍华裔剧作家黄哲伦从其特殊的文化身份出发,创作了剧本《蝴蝶君》。该剧倒置了东方主义长期以来构建的东西方关系,颠覆了西方人眼中的东方女子刻板印象,讽刺了西方白人对东方女子不切实际的幻想,向西方文化霸权提出挑战。但作为自幼接受白人主流文化教育的第二代华裔移民作家,黄哲伦对东方主义的解构又是不完全的。这种不完全解构是作家所处的社会历史环境、个人经历及民族文化身份共同作用的结果。     

A response to David Kirk: personal/professional views from US authors

This paper represents the views of two scholars in the USA with respect to the scholar lecture presented by David Kirk at the 2012 BERA – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy (PESP) Special Interest Group meeting. We discuss how two unique features of the American universities have an impact on both the corporate nature of our work and our scholarship. These features are described as ‘the notion of outreach scholarship’ and the ‘nature of giving.’ In addition, we discuss our different situations and how they affect our ability to do the best academic work. We can, and by consequence, give our best efforts to resist the hegemony of corporatization.     

众叛亲离的“大卫王”斯图潘家族与大卫王家族对比研究

威廉·福克纳的代表作《押沙龙,押沙龙》取材于《圣经》(撒母儿记)。本文作者认为小说人物中惟有斯图潘与大卫王对应关系明确。押沙龙在小说中则没有明确的人物对应关系,而且具有指向的模糊性和多义性。
