Oestrogen Rising 2016: Ireland’s stained and bloodied cloths

A weaver, seamstress, laundress and artist, in this essay I shall spin a yarn, tangle a web, and construct a text(ile) of the inter-weave of narrative and identity that I define as my intellectual, textual, somatic and material/visual practice obsessions. My work explores ‘the places in-between’ in the entanglements of Irish and Northern Irish gender and identity, and in the abject fabrics of death and of desire. As an Irish feminist, sense-making of the complexities, conundrums, challenges and contradictions of my land, my cloth, my body and my culture owes much to Irish women before me who fought for female suffrage, and Irish women now – north and south of the border that divides the island of Ireland – who still struggle for equality of citizenship, social justice, human rights, and full reproductive autonomy. My contention is that when we accept that Ireland herself is a many-layered cloth, a stained and bloodied cloth, a cloth marked irreversibly by history, conflict, denial and abuse, stained by its own repression, marked through denial of all its people’s rights and needs, and bloodied by its greatest export, the haemorrhage of its people, then – polemical, didactic or reflective, with more compassion, empathy, humility and heart – we just might make peace with our past.     

气候变冷与市场经济衰退——以北朝为例

北朝时期,由于气候变冷,粮食产量减低,为了养活同样的人口,需要更多的人从事农业生产活动;这一时期农民主要种植粮食作物而不是种植经济作物,导致交换减少。这二者是北朝时期市场经济衰退的重要原因。

北魏河内太守及其相关问题论考

河内太守是北魏时期河内郡的最高行政长官,除领兵治乱、维持治安之外,教化百姓、发展经济、征收赋税等也是其重要职责。由于河内战略地位重要,河内太守也负有接纳归附民众等特殊责任,因此受到中央政府重视,享有较高的政治待遇。因政治形势的变化,北魏时期河内太守的任、升、降都呈现出复杂化倾向。     

北宋西京洛阳的文教成就

北宋时期,西京洛阳的文化教育一度十分发达,是京师开封之外又一重要文化教育和学术研究中心。悠久的古都历史,深厚的文化积淀,良好的教育传统、文教设施和师资以及开放自由的学术风气,使洛阳成为四方文人士大夫荟萃之地,无论其官学还是私学都取得了巨大发展,开创了洛阳文化史上又一个辉煌时代。西京文化教育的兴盛与藏书丰富、人才荟萃等因素息息相关。学术创新无疑又增进了其文化教育的吸引力,促使藏书量进一步增加,从而实现了西京文教事业发展的良性循环。

Building Strength Through Challenging Homophobia: Liberation Workshops with Younger and Midlife Irish Lesbians

Drawing on the theoretical framework of liberation psychology, this article details workshops on liberation psychology conducted in Ireland with lesbian and transgendered persons aged from early 20's to late 50's. Both younger and older lesbians in the workshops benefited from the opportunity to focus on oppression and to explore options for transformation. The workshops illustrated many of the strengths and vulnerabilities associated with living with homophobia and demonstrated the value of action and engagement. Midlife lesbians were more aware of the systemic nature of homophobia and of the negative emotions related to that. They saw many of these as understandable and even necessary reactions to oppression rather than as negative patterns. These older lesbians tended to be more accepting of the course their lives had taken and of the ways in which choices had been influenced by homophobia and heterosexism. They tended to be more relativistic in their views on coming out, viewing coming out as a decision for each context rather than an overall principle. They valued the importance of community and of activism, and though they were aware of some of the challenges, they also had more positive experiences in this area. These strengths can facilitate managing both homophobia and aging more effectively.     

君主嫉臣文才的文化心态分析--南北朝文学史中的一种奇特现象

西晋文学征实,齐梁更重“形似”,熟记典实多少,往往被认为是文人富有才华的重要标志。时代形成的文化挑战,异域文化和宗教文化给予文学活动新的激发,带有竞赛性质的集会唱和所导致的创作方式、作品功用变化,也是逞才炫博风气氤氲的原因之一。帝王心中早年积存的“阴影”,愈益激发了其内心的荣誉感与报复欲。但在接受心理中,君主的势位还会增加人们的逆反心理,使其受到贬抑,有如文人的命运坎坷引人较多的同情和偏爱一样。
