2015年,南京图书馆藏的一份不为人知的手稿引起了学界的重视.经鉴定,这一矿冶著作是被认为失传已久的《坤舆格致》的一个抄本.《坤舆格致》此前被普遍视为耶稣会士汤若望(Adam Schall von Bell,1592~1666)对阿格里科拉(Georgius Agricola,1494~1555)的《矿冶全书》(De re metallica,1556)的中译本.然而,仔细阅读文本可以发现,该书除了编译《矿冶全书》中部分内容外,至少还收录了另外四位欧洲学者的著述,他们是万诺乔·比林古乔(Vannoccio Biringuccio,1480~1539)、莫德斯蒂努斯·法克斯(Modestinus Fachs,?~1595前)、拉扎勒斯·埃克(Lazarus Ercker,1528/30~1594)和何塞·德·阿科斯塔(José de Acosta,1539/40~1599/1600).本文通过这一个案研究,展示了上述学者的著作是如何来到中国、因何被选为《坤舆格致》的参考书目,以及最终是如何被使用和吸收的.从这一过程可知,汤若望和他的合作者不遗余力地进行这项雄心勃勃的知识转移工程,将欧洲的技术以最好的方式呈现给了崇祯皇帝.“,”In 2015,a previously unknown manuscript was discovered in the Nanjing Library.It contained a Chinese mining and metallurgy handbook,and was identified as a copy of the Kunyu gezhi坤輿格致,known as the lost Chinese translation of Georgius Agricola\'s (1494-1555) De re metallica (1556) by Jesuit Adam Schall von Bell(1592-1666).A closer look at the text,however,reveals that,besides parts of Agricola\'s book,content by at least four other European authors was included:Vannoccio Biringuccio (1480-1539),Modestinus Fachs (?-before 1595),Lazarus Ercker (1528/30-1594),and José de Acosta (1539/40-1599/1600).This study demonstrates how their books became available in China,why they were selected as sources for the Kunyu gezhi,and how they were eventually used and incorporated.From this,it becomes apparent that Schall and his collaborators spared no effort to conduct this ambitious knowledge transfer project,and to present European technology at its best to the emperor.

通过确立科学判断中国古代家养动物起源的系列依据(如形体测量、病理现象、年龄结构、性别比例、数量比例、考古现象、食性分析和DNA研究),可以断定:距今约10000年,在河北省南部出现狗;距今约9000年,在河南省南部出现猪;距今约5600~5000年,在甘青地区出现绵羊;距今约5000年,在甘肃省东部出现黄牛;距今约4000~3600年,在甘肃省东部出现马;距今约3300年,在河南省东部出现鸡.这些家养动物分别起源或出现于不同的时间和不同的地点,但基本上都位于中国的北方地区.“,”A series of c
坩埚炼铅是中国特有的一种传统炼铅技术,即在坩埚中用金属铁从硫化铅中还原出铅.近年来在北方地区发现一批辽金元时期(公元一千纪后期至二千纪前期)的坩埚炼铅遗址,为研究该技术提供了契机.本文将基于文献和考古两方面证据,以使用的坩埚为重点,对该技术进行综合研究.首先,回顾有关坩埚炼铅的文献资料,详细介绍清代甘肃坩埚炼铅的情况,以及20世纪土法坩埚炼铅的工艺流程;其次,总结近年来坩埚炼铅遗址的发现情况,通过坩埚和炉渣的分析来复原坩埚的制作工艺、铁还原法等技术;最后,阐述坩埚炼铅的技术特征,并探讨技术起源与发展等问题

通过对相关文物及论述的重新检视,提出韩国庆州佛国寺所出《无垢净光大陀罗尼经》是不可能刻印于朝鲜的,也不能作为朝鲜发明雕版印刷术的依据.根据唐代最早雕版印刷的陀罗尼经咒,可以推测出印刷术产生的时间上限为唐玄宗开元年间.印度瑜伽密教的入华及其在社会大众间的广泛传播,正是促使印刷术产生最重要的社会因素,并促成了在复制经咒时从分块捺印向整版雕印、从印制梵文向汉文的演变.“,”A re-examination of the artifacts and research pertaining to woodblock
