王祯《农书》中的“飏扇”新解

过去学界对元代王祯《农书》描绘的飏扇存在误读,缪启愉先生认为插图所绘是飏扇的剖面图,李约瑟认为王祯只绘出了闭式的扬谷机。事实上《农书》两大版本系统最早的两个版本绘出的就是一具开式的卧轴飏扇。前人误读的原因一是对《农书》的版本渊源没有理清,二是对《农书》运用的绘图方法没有理解。此外,《农书》最早版本中飏扇并未出现圆筒状鼓风结构,因此不可将发明有这一结构的飏扇年代推前至元代。目前最早出现这种结构的风扇车见于明代画家杜堇创作于15世纪晚期的一幅画。     

西方文学象征主义视角下窥探王维山水田园诗印象

王维的山水田园诗是中国古代诗歌史上别具一格的一座宏伟高峰,纵观王维的山水田园诗,给人留下的总体审美印象是空灵静逸,意蕴悠远.他的诗方寸之间尽显人与宇宙、人与自然、人与生命等方面理趣的高度和谐统一.从西方文学象征主义的视角下窥探王维的山水田园诗,质地凹凸地呈现出一种淡泊宁静,空灵清逸的禅宗美学风格.     

A general class of distortion operators for pricing contingent claims with applications to CAT bonds

ABSTRACT

The current paper provides a general approach to construct distortion operators that can price financial and insurance risks. Our approach generalizes the (Wang 2000) transform and recovers multiple distortions proposed in the literature as particular cases. This approach enables designing distortions that are consistent with various pricing principles used in finance and insurance such as no-arbitrage models, equilibrium models and actuarial premium calculation principles. Such distortions allow for the incorporation of risk-aversion, distribution features (e.g. skewness and kurtosis) and other considerations that are relevant to price contingent claims. The pricing performance of multiple distortions obtained through our approach is assessed on CAT bonds data. The current paper is the first to provide evidence that jump-diffusion models are appropriate for CAT bonds pricing, and that natural disaster aversion impacts empirical prices. A simpler distortion based on a distribution mixture is finally proposed for CAT bonds pricing to facilitate the implementation.     

Wang Anshi and the origins of modern public management in Song Dynasty China

Wang Anshi (1021–1086) is well known as one of the greatest statesmen of classical China, but it is rarely recognized that his 1058 ‘Wan Yan Shu’ is one of the first texts of public management in the modern sense. This is because Wang addressed still current concerns of a civil service—selection, training, motivation, remuneration—often presenting solutions that are completely in line with today's perspectives. Wang's work is particularly relevant now given the current global state of public management—post-NPM but with no clear new paradigm having emerged.

《论衡》文学主题的矛盾

王充的《论衡》由于本人在思想方面的矛盾,导致了他的文学主题的矛盾。既疾虚妄,又没有摆脱虚妄;既厚今薄古,又对现实充满着愤世嫉俗。结合文本对这两方面的矛盾进行阐释并加以分析,以揭示思想对主题影响的一面,同时还原真实的《论衡》。     

王国维悲剧思想之转变——以《〈红楼梦〉评论》与《宋元戏曲考》为中心的考察

王国维是近代中国首先从西方引进悲剧理论的学者,为中国后来的悲剧研究开了先河.从《〈红楼梦〉评论》到《宋元戏曲考》,王国维的悲剧思想在考察视角的选择、悲剧精神的阐释和结构标准的界定方面虽然已经发生了转变,但却有一以贯之之处.随着对中国古典戏曲研究的系统深入,其悲剧思想从受叔本华的强烈影响到真正走进中国戏曲,从推崇出世解脱到看重“主人翁之意志”,从结构上的机械认定到灵活处理,已然发生了转变、发展而进一步成熟了.     

土地革命时期毛泽东思想对王稼祥的影响

王稼祥是中国共产党的重要领导人,在革命时期坚决拥护毛泽东在党内的军事地位,是毛泽东思想形成的重要支持者。在中国革命该走向何方、该如何走这一历史主题下,王稼祥摒弃本本主义思想的影响,将马克思主义理论同中国革命的具体情况相结合,用实际行动表明了他的主张——践行毛泽东的思想路线,在毛泽东思想初步形成时期——遵义会议时期发挥了不可替代的历史作用。     

造园组创办始末

1951—1953年创办的造园组对中国风景园林学科 和教育影响深远。基于档案文件，以时间为序，描述造园组成 立的背景、沿革和办学情况，讨论造园组停办的主要原因。研 究表明：造园组隶属于北京农业大学园艺系，清华大学营建学 系合办，北京市人民政府建设局协办；汪菊渊、吴良镛、陈有 民以及梁思成等先生在造园组成立和建设之中发挥了重要的作 用；造园组是一个相对独立的教学和行政组织；造园组的成立 依赖于一系列的背景条件。
