Download or read book Collection of Ancient Chinese Cultural Relics Volume 6 written by and published by ATF Asia. This book was released on 2020-02-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, a collection of ancient Chinese cultural relics from the Northern and Southern Dynasties from 960 to 1279. It covers jade and bronze ware, gold and silver ware and porcelain ware, pottery, porcelain, painting, calligraphy, and handicrafts. There are 363 relics in the book. In 960, Zhao Kuangtin, commander of the imperial guard troops of the later Zhou Dynasty staged a mutiny at Chenqiao and proclaimed himself emperor. He named his new dynasty the Song Dynasty and chose Dongling Kaifeng for the capital. This dynasty now called the Northern Song in history, gradually eliminated rival regimes and ended the separation of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, co-existing with the Liao Regime established by the Qidan ethic group and Western Xia Regime established by the Dangxian ethic group. In 1127 Emperors Huizong and Quinzong were taken captive by the Jin Dynasty established by the Jurchen people, thus ending the Northern Song Dynasty. In the same year, Zhao Gou, then King King, established the imperial court of Song and moved the capital to Linhan (present day Hangzhou City in Zhejiang). This is what history calls the Southern Song Dynasty, and formed a glance at the Jin and Western Xia. In this period, thanks to easy politics and a relatively emancipated ideology, great achievements were obtained in various scientific technologies, theoretical trends, academic schools, religious thought and literary creation and the arts also showed an unprecedented prosperous science. Jade ware penetrated various aspects of social life, and he shapes, decorations and patterns all showed a distinctive secularisation. The invasion of northern nomads introduced a new cultural atmosphere to the Central Plains. The porcelain kilns could be found everywhere and finally developed into eight major systems: Ding, Yaozhou, Cizhou, Jun, Yuezhou, Longquan, Jingdezhen blueish white porcelain and Jian kilns. As well, there were four major royal kilns: Ru Kiln and Jun Kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty and Xiunesisi Kiln and Jiaotanxia Kiln of the Southern Dynasty. The arts of calligraphy and painting were typical representatives of the flourishing culture in the Song Dynasty. During this period an imperial art academy was founded, enlisting folk artists and a large number of professional painters were trained. Calligraphers of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties inherited previous styles but also emphasised the representation of the individual subjective will. Other handicrafts developed: gold and silver ware tended to be light, handy and graceful. In the Song Dynasty, people has less costly funerals so less jade has been unearthed. Those that have are in: Sichuan, Zhejiang and Jiangxis. The emphasis is on practical utensils, drinking vessels, dress adornments and accessories. At the same time, there was progress in the technologies of jade carving: layered piercing and large-scale jade ware. This book, the sixth in a ten-volume collection, brings to the English-speaking world a series of books from China which has been complied by an Expert Committee of the Chinese Society of Cultural Relics. There are 363 descriptions.

Book excerpt: It was in a context of unprecedented economic growth that educational planning developed in the 1960s. At the time, educational planners were entrusted with orchestrating the tremendous expansion of schooling, with the aim of both universalizing education and providing national economies with the qualified manpower needed. Such rigid mandatory planning is not suited to today's world, but other forms of planning such as policy analysis, policy dialog, labor market analysis, and strategic management are still valid.

Download or read book Spaces and Identities in Border Regions written by Christian Wille and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial and identity research operates with differentiations and relations. These are particularly useful heuristic tools when examining border regions where social and geopolitical demarcations diverge. Applying this approach, the authors of this volume investigate spatial and identity constructions in cross-border contexts as they appear in everyday, institutional and media practices. The results are discussed with a keen eye for obliquely aligned spaces and identities and relinked to governmental issues of normalization and subjectivation. The studies base upon empirical surveys conducted in Germany, France, Belgium and Luxembourg.

Download or read book The Routledge Research Companion to Border Studies written by Doris Wastl-Walter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, the functions and roles of borders have been continuously changing. They can only be understood in their context, shaped as they are by history, politics and power, as well as cultural and social issues. Borders are therefore complex spatial and social phenomena which are not static or invariable, but which are instead highly dynamic. This comprehensive volume brings together a multidisciplinary team of leading scholars to provide an authoritative, state-of-the-art review of all aspects of borders and border research. It is truly global in scope and, besides embracing the more traditional strands of the field including geopolitics, migration and territorial identities, it also takes in recently emerging topics such as the role of borders in a seemingly borderless world; creating neighbourhoods, and border enforcement in the post-9/11 era.

Download or read book Enseigner le fran ais langue trang re et seconde written by Jean-Marc Defays and published by Mardaga. This book was released on 2018-10-29 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un ouvrage de référence pour tous les (futurs) enseignants de FLES ! L’enseignement du français langue étrangère et seconde (FLES) ne cesse de se développer dans les pays francophones ou non francophones, dans les écoles, les universités ou diverses autres institutions, tandis que le métier de professeur de FLES devient de plus en plus exigeant vu la spécificité et la variété de ses publics, de ses conditions et de ses enjeux. Cet ouvrage d’introduction et de référence est destiné aux futurs enseignants de FLES en cours de formation comme aux professeurs plus expérimentés qui souhaitent actualiser leurs connaissances et leurs pratiques, se réorienter ou se spécialiser pour enseigner le/en français à des allophones. À leur intention sont présentés de manière aussi systématique qu’accessible les différents aspects de l’enseignement du FLES, en alternant explications scientifiques, réflexions théoriques et conseils pédagogiques. L’approche humaniste ici adoptée place l’enseignant et l’apprenant au centre des perspectives et des préoccupations, et s’appuie autant sur leur motivation et leur créativité que sur les méthodes ou les ressources qui sont actuellement à leur disposition. Sans prescrire de règles générales, de solutions toutes faites, de leçons toutes prêtes, le propos est d’expliquer les tenants et aboutissants des démarches communicatives, interculturelles et cognitives en faveur d’un apprentissage stimulant, efficace, épanouissant. La première version de cet ouvrage a été primée par l’Académie Royale de Belgique et traduite en chinois. Découvrez ce nouvel ouvrage de référence pour les enseignants de FLES, qui reprend une approche scientifique, des réflexions théoriques et des conseils pédagogiques dans une perspective humaniste où l'enseignant et l'apprenant sont au coeur des préoccupations. EXTRAIT On n’a évidemment pas attendu les professeurs, les didacticiens, les manuels, les laboratoires et les multimédias, les stages en immersion pour pratiquer les langues étrangères. Les difficultés que l’on dit actuellement éprouver pour apprendre et enseigner les langues font oublier que le plurilinguisme est plus ancien, plus répandu, somme toute plus « naturel » que le monolinguisme auquel nous ont condamnés les nations modernes, avant que les relations, les institutions et les firmes internationales n’obligent maintenant à parler de nouveau plusieurs langues. La didactique des langues, maternelle ou étrangères, ne cherche finalement qu’à mieux comprendre, pour mieux la contrôler et mieux en profiter, notre capacité innée à apprendre des langues, quelles que soient les circonstances. En principe, un adulte n’aurait pas plus besoin d’un professeur de langue étrangère qu’un bébé d’un professeur de langue maternelle. L’enseignement n’est donc qu’une manière parmi d’autres d’acquérir une langue étrangère, et pas toujours la plus efficace... au contraire : un didacticien a déjà fait remarquer de manière désabusée que l’apprentissage des langues n’était un problème que lorsqu’il avait lieu en classe. A PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Jean-Marc Defays est professeur de didactique du français langue étrangère et seconde à l'Université de Liège où il dirige également le Département de français de l'Institut supérieur des langues vivantes. Il est aussi l'auteur de nombreux ouvrages et articles scientifiques de linguistique et de didactique.
