本文以概念場理論為指導，選取“憂慮”“思念”“猜度”“思謀”“意欲”五個心理概念場，從詞匯系統及詞義系統相結合的角度重點考察了漢語史上這五個概念場典型成員的變遷。在具體研究過程中，先從用法分析、義域廣狹及頻率比較幾個方面考察不同時期這些典型成員的演變，而後又驗諸方言，鉤沉它們的歷史痕跡。通過研究發現：(1)五個概念場主導詞的更替過程一方面伴隨著新舊成員義域的擴大與縮小及使用頻率的增減，另一方面又伴隨著新舊成員用法的完備與萎縮，因此主導詞界定除了義域寬及頻率高兩項標準外，用法完備亦是一個重要的參照系。(2)五個概念場主導詞的主導義位演變有A-B-C-D…型、A-B-A型、A-B-A-B型以及A-A型四種類型。(3)主導義位與主導詞關係密切，前者是後者的必要條件而非充分條件。(4)義位在義位系統中所處地位的高低、概念在概念場中所占系統份額的多少以及詞形所承載語義負擔的輕重是制約詞在相關概念場中獲得主導詞資格的主要因素。

The fragile Antarctic environment consists of a closely linked system of the lithosphere, atmosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere. Changes in this system have influenced global climate, oceanography and sea level for most of Cenozoic time. The geological history of this region therefore provides a special record of important interactions between the various components of the Earth System. Antarctic Marine Geology is a comprehensive single-authored book to introduce students and researchers to the geological history of the region and the unique processes that occur there. Research literature on the region is widely disseminated. The book is intended as a reference for all scientists working in Antarctica, and will also serve as a textbook for graduate courses in Antarctic marine geology.

Spunky southern private investigator Sarah Booth Delaney tackles a string of strange accidents while celebrating the holiday season in Carolyn Haines's cozy A Garland of Bones Sarah Booth has traded in hosting this Christmas season for a road trip with her besties. Each little Delta town has a special Christmas activity, and Sarah Booth's bff and detective partner, Tinkie, has arranged to rent a limo for the gang and drive to Columbus, MS, to stay in a B&B. Visions of Christmas shopping, parade floats, and romantic rendezvous are already dancing in their heads. But Christmas cheer soon turns to Christmas fear when, at one event after another, people keep getting hurt. Christmas karaoke gets ugly when one singer's microphone gives her an electric shock. A party during a historic home tour ends with a fall down the stairs for one of Columbus's most disreputable "players." And when the woman who hires Sarah Booth to find the villain behind the so-called accidents is nearly killed with

The Reverend John Furniss Ogle (1823–65) was an academic, a Church of England clergyman and a committed missionary. Born into a wealthy religious family and educated at Cambridge, he worked as a tutor and minister before undertaking missions in the Falkland Islands, Europe and Africa. First published in 1873, this collection of Ogle's letters was compiled shortly after his death at sea during a mission to Algeria. Interspersed with detailed commentary by the book's editor, the Reverend James Aitken Wylie (1808–90), the letters trace Ogle's early childhood, his studies at Cambridge, his embarking on a religious life, and his determined missionary enterprises. They offer a revealing insight into life in nineteenth-century Europe and Africa, and portray Ogle as humble man, dedicated to his pursuits and to the welfare of others.
