澳门旅游博彩形象的实证研究

澳门博彩业回归后迅速发展,随著"澳门历史城区"被列入"世界文化遗产",该行业更出现前所未有的繁荣景象。然而,除了"赌城"的形象外,澳门的旅游博彩形象还有甚么元素呢?本文结合了"结构法"与"非结构法",针对澳门旅游博彩形象进行问卷调查,来了解它的内涵及意义,并尝试提出一些适合澳门旅游博彩形象发展的建议,以利澳门这个"龙头"产业的可持续发展。     

中国古诗英译的女性隐喻视角

中国文学肇始之初,诗人们就已多方采用妇女和爱情来宣泄真实心境和对现实的不满.此后这方面,在中国文学的历史长河中涌现了不少佳话佳作,诸如爱情圆缺、仕途得失、寒秋扼腕、春意凝望,总有一个牵动人心的丰满女性.为什么会有这种独特的现象?原因在于,古代社会,包括中国封建社会,人们的等级观念无处不在.在社会生活中,女人从属于男人,而男人则从属于统治集团.因此,(男)诗人们常常扮演女性形象以抒胸中块垒,而不直露,避免伤雅失礼.     

形象导向型旅游地开发策略探析——以若尔盖湿地为例

形象导向型旅游地开发代表着当今区域旅游开发的发展趋势.以若尔盖湿地为例,一方面它需要依托九寨沟和黄龙两精品景区,并共享两精品景区丰富的旅游客源;另一方面,它更需要按照一系列定位原则,通过形象导向型旅游地开发策略的实施,整合优势资源,进行差异性和互补性开发,逐步凸显自身的特色及优势,把自身做强做大,并最终与九寨沟、黄龙等知名景区间实现联动互促.     

论《玉台新咏》中的女性美及其审美价值

《玉台新咏》是南朝徐陵编纂的一部以女性为主题选诗结集的诗歌总集,其中表现的女性美越来越被人们重视和欣赏。这种美包括容貌、姿态、服饰的外在美和人情、人格的内在美,具有体现古代女性的创造力和纯洁人们道德、美化人们心灵的作用。     

对文学作品中女性意象的心理机质探究

当代文学创作和文学评论对女性意象的描写与分析多从女性所处的现实社会环境入手,即按因果规律来解释女性意象,使得作品和评论中的女性意象缺乏人性美,未达到人性审美层次。女性个体不应仅仅从外部和个体分析,还应当从女性心理结构入手,分析女性深层心理因素。     

‘Being called sisters’: Masculinities and black male nurses in South Africa

This study contributes to an understanding of the geographies of masculinities, by demonstrating how black South African male nurses negotiate hegemonic masculinity through citing masculine gendered acts. The research draws on qualitative data gathered from interviews with 15 black male nurses aged between 26 and 50 years who have worked in the paediatric, trauma, orthopaedic, oncology and midwifery fields for a period of not less than two years. It is argued that the colonially imposed hierarchies of race, gender and occupation merge with culturally specific pre‐existing African masculinities, and that this informed how the black male nurses experienced their gender identity in the occupation. The study demonstrates how, because of their career choice, the gender identities of the male nurses were positioned as marginalized and subordinate to the modes of a hegemonic masculinity, a gender identity only available to them momentarily. In this context, it was found that the modes of gender performativity in which the nurses negotiated and subverted their subordinate and marginal status was with the complicity of patients and other healthcare workers. This upheld the more generally assumed hegemony of masculinity in the hospital workplace. The study traces these experiences to the discourses of black masculinities during South Africa's pre‐colonial, colonial and apartheid eras and in the present day. In doing so, this study contributes to an understanding of the geographies of masculinities by demonstrating the locally specific modes of masculine performativity through which black male nurses negotiate their gender in South Africa.     

Quantifying the similarity of 2D images using edge pixels: an application to the forensic comparison of footwear impressions

We propose a novel method to quantify the similarity between an impression (Q) from an unknown source and a test impression (K) from a known source. Using the property of geometrical congruence in the impressions, the degree of correspondence is quantified using ideas from graph theory and maximum clique (MC). The algorithm uses the x and y coordinates of the edges in the images as the data. We focus on local areas in Q and the corresponding regions in K and extract features for comparison. Using pairs of images with known origin, we train a random forest to classify pairs into mates and non-mates. We collected impressions from 60 pairs of shoes of the same brand and model, worn over six months. Using a different set of very similar shoes, we evaluated the performance of the algorithm in terms of the accuracy with which it correctly classified images into source classes. Using classification error rates and ROC curves, we compare the proposed method to other algorithms in the literature and show that for these data, our method shows good classification performance relative to other methods. The algorithm can be implemented with the R package shoeprintr.     

鲁迅与波德莱尔的话语共鸣

《野草》和《巴黎的忧郁》是鲁迅和波德莱尔的散文诗集,两位伟大的作家选择了相同的文体,运用象征手法,选择特有的意象,表达时代的抑郁和苦闷。由此形成了两者的话语共鸣,体味出新的审美典范。散文诗以其特殊的话语形态表达作者的心理情感及其想像空间,鲁迅与波德莱尔一方面具备写作散文诗的特质,另一方面时代也促成了他们选择这样的话语形态,由此透过两位大作家的文字,我们体味到两者文本之中的话语共鸣——精神的忧郁、心灵的苦闷;同时也体味到世界文学的共鸣。     

数字媒介时代文学中图像符号的叙事

在21世纪的数字网络媒介语境中,用图像符号进行叙事表达渐成主导。文学文本中的图像符号的功能也在扩大,有的图像符号在文学文本中主要起装饰美化和引发读者兴趣的作用,有的图像符号的叙事功能已经无法被语言文字取代。图像符号作为文学的辅助性符号,与语言符号一同在文学文本中组织叙事,这不但影响了文学文本的形态和审美,对文学的形态、形象和意蕴也产生了重大影响。     

象征主义视野下的梦窗词

梦窗词大异于传统审美旨趣,古今毁誉甚殊。词作的晦涩难解,是造成对其评价褒贬不一的根由所在。梦窗词幽隐朦胧的艺术特征类似于象征主义的美学风貌,其创作的形式技巧与象征主义诗学也具有诸多暗合之处,这种相通处主要表现在以下两方面:一是意象化的整体隐喻,二是直觉性的生命意识。
