论苏格拉底死亡事件的美学意义——兼论另一种理解美学史的方式

我们所理解的"美学"从属于苏格拉底开创的西方形而上学"传统",而这一传统的形成又与苏格拉底的死亡事件存在着内在密切关联:正是这一"事件"使得苏格拉底的形而上学思想通过"教化"超越了个体生存的价值维度成为"传统",形而上学意义上的美学也应运而生。但是,苏格拉底悲剧般的"事件"昭示出走出形而上学迷局的道路:回归肉身。这条道路影响了尼采及以后的非理性主义美学家们和后现代美学家,使得"肉身"成为当代美学关注的重要问题。     

Body image,aging, and identity in women over 50: The Gender and Body Image (GABI) study

We conducted a qualitative study of 1,849 women over age 50 to capture the thoughts, feelings, and attitudes that women at middle age have about their bodies and the experience of aging. Via an open-ended question online survey, four primary themes emerged: (a) the physical and psychological experience of aging; (b) the injustices, inequities, and challenges of aging; (c) the importance of self-care; and (d) a plea for recognition of the need to maintain a contributory role in society. Results highlight the complexities of women’s psychological and physical aspects of aging and point toward important topics worthy of further study in this growing population.     

The impact of age,BMI and sex hormone on aging males’ symptoms and the international index of erectile function scores

Objective: To analyze the impact of age, BMI and sex hormone on aging males’ symptoms (AMS) and the 5-item version of the international index of erectile function (IIEF-5) scores in middle-aged and elderly Chinese men.

Methods: A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Jiashan County. A total of 969 men, aged between 40 and 80 years old, were admitted. Physical examination and the sex hormones were measured, and AMS and IIEF-5 scores were assessed.

Results: The oneway ANOVA analysis indicated older age groups had higher AMS total-scores, somatic and sexual sub-scores, and lower IIEF5 scores (all p?r_pairwise) analyses showed the significant associations between AMS and age or sex hormone (cFT, Bio-T, SHBG, and LH) levels, and similar for IIEF5. However, when age was adjusted, the correlation coefficients (r_partial) weakened, and correlation significance disappeared, except LH (for AMS: r_partial?=?0.096, p?=?.009; for IIEF-5: r_partial?= ?0.140, p?=?.001). Multiple linear regressions confirmed the influence of increased age and LH on the AMS and IIEF5 scores.

Conclusion: CFT, Bio-T and SHBG failed to yield any additional predicting information when age was adjusted. To improve the male reproductive health, future research should pay more attention on aging-related comorbidities and how to improve general wellness.     

Intensities of mobility: kinetic energy,commotion and qualities of supercommuting

This paper explores the intensities of long-distance commuting journeys in order to understand how bodily sensibilities become attuned to the regular mobilities which they undertake. More people are travelling farther to and from work than ever before, owing to a variety of factors which relate to complex social and geographical dynamics of transport, housing, lifestyle, and employment. Yet, the experiential dimensions of long-distance commuting have not received the attention that they deserve within research on mobilities. Drawing from fieldwork conducted in Australia, Canada, and Denmark this paper aims to further develop our collective understanding of the experiential particulars of long-distance workers or ‘supercommuters’. Rather than focusing on the extensive dimensions of mobilities that are implicated in broad social patterns and trends, our paper turns to the intensive dimensions of this experience for supercommuters by developing an understanding of embodied kinetic energy, commotion and quality. Exploring how experiences of supercommuters are constituted by a range of different material and bodily forces enables us to more sensitively consider the practical, technical, and affective implications of this increasingly prevalent yet underexplored travel practice.     

Laying the foundation for a global body of knowledge in public relations and communications management

An internationally recognised body of knowledge is both possible and necessary for the future success and professionalisation of public relations. Through extensive content analysis of 31 credential schemes, education frameworks, and scholarly articles produced across six continents, the Global Alliance for Public Relations and Communications Management has developed a foundational list of knowledge, skills, abilities and behaviours (KSABs), which entry and mid/senior-level practitioners across the world should possess. This study and list of KSABs is laying the foundation for development of an internationally accepted framework which professional associations and academic institutions across the world will be able to use to benchmark professional credentials and curriculum outcomes.     

大学英语主体交互式课堂教学模式探索

从传统课堂教学模式的不足入手,论证大学英语主体交互式课堂教学模式的必要性、交互形式及操作策略,可以得出结论：主体交互式课堂教学模式是一种极具活力的教学模式。这一教学模式对大学英语教学模式改革具有深远的意义,值得在大学英语课堂教学中进行尝试、实践和推广。     

以人为本与执政主体意识的复归

“以人为本”作为科学发展观的核心,是我党在不断深化对社会发展规律认识的基础上提出来的,既符合坚持全心全意为人民服务的宗旨,同时又体现了立党为公、执政为民的本质要求;其更是一种全新的社会发展理念,表明我党对社会主义现代化建设的认识达到了一个新的高度,是全面建设小康社会、推进社会主义现代化建设的一个重要战略思想。从根本上讲,“以人为本”体现了我党执政主体意识的复归诉求：从单一低位到合目的的统合和复归;从对位到合位的统合和复归;从管统到民主自治的统合和复归。     

身体的隐喻——对张爱玲小说的一种解读

文学文本中女性的身体成为建构其主体意识的重要组成部分,其身体、欲望的觉醒具有反抗男权、颠覆既有的性别秩序的意义。张爱玲的小说具有独特、鲜明的女性视角,小说中的女性身体叙事,从另一个角度揭示了文本所具有的对男权文化的反抗和颠覆性质。     

中国传统四合院建筑的发生机制

从原始社会文化遗址发掘的考古资料入手,通过对居住建筑布局演变过程的阐述,揭示出传统四合院建筑格局的发生机制不是封建礼制下的伦理序位,而是抽象化的人体图式;提出如果从人体图式是中国传统四合院建筑发生机制的观点出发,那么可对四合院建筑的形式、布局、称谓以及文化内涵等方面做出比较合理和完整的阐释。     

论十七年文学的主体建构

新中国建立后,十七年文学上接延安文艺的传统,致力于为意识形态服务,围绕新中国的发展组织叙事。现代性时间的引入成为文本叙事中的路标,标示着战斗和革命的进程。时间常常在革命胜利或主人公的牺牲与成长时戛然而止,产生的修辞效果是主人公成为不完全主体,其非自足性强化了创造历史的集体意义和意识形态的有机力量。在叙述者于统一价值规范下的自觉创作取向背后,真正隐藏着的叙述者是“阶级”话语。
