  • Along with the development of culture, dress of the Chinese people has also evolved over the last several thousand years, transcending its original functions of covering and protecting the body. As a result it has risen to become a complicated system of symbols full of intricate meanings. According to de Saussure's theory of "signs," signs are represented by the elements signified (meaning) (referent) and signifiant (sound) (exponent). "Phoenix crowns" were the headpieces most highly esteemed by women in ancient China. Actually, the name "phoenix crown" points to the fact that the headpiece is adorned with a phoenix design. The history and symbolism of the phoenix crown's use as a headpiece in Chinese weddings spans 1200 years in all, originating in the Qin Dynasty (241-210 BC) as a phoenix hairpin, evolving into the phoenix crown during the Song Dynasty (960-1276 AD), and continuing through the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1644-1911 AD), and the modem republic. It is not simply an ornamental headpiece, but instead represents the thousands of years or rich inner meaning the Chinese attribute to "dragons" and "phoenixes." This paper depicts the glorious past of phoenix crowns, using the metaphor and metonymy theories of semiology and semantics, and through the cross-verification of literature research archeological findings and reports, and old Chinese wedding photographs, in order to examine the inherent meanings of the phoenix crown in the Chinese culture.nings of the phoenix crown in the Chinese culture.

  • The objective of this study was to explore the symbolism associated with phoenix patterns in China and the temporal aesthetic characteristics of these patterns found in Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. The study involved collecting examples of clothing designs featuring phoenix patterns from China Fashion Week and the Vogue website, spanning from spring and summer of 2016 to fall and winter of 2022. After collecting and organizing these examples, representative cases were selected for analysis. The objective was to identify effective techniques for incorporating phoenix patterns within the context of Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes and provided insights for future clothing design and textile pattern design research. Phoenix patterns boasted a lengthy history and were laden with symbolic meaning. Early renditions of phoenix patterns found at Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang were relatively simplistic in design, mainly employing elements like rhythm, coordination, balance and symmetry to convey a sense of nature and gravity. Over time, these patterns evolved under the influence of the prevailing cultural backdrop, employing repeated emphasis to portray notions of abundance and tenacity. Furthermore, regarding the use of phoenix patterns in clothing, there were four prevalent expression techniques: embroidery, beading, printing, and knitting. Traditional techniques like embroidery and beadwork often prioritized aesthetic features like coordination, emphasis, and symmetry, thereby showcasing the opulent characteristics of phoenix patterns. On the other hand, printing and knitting techniques used a single phoenix pattern or a modified version to simplify designs by emphasizing or repeating aesthetic characteristics while adhering to a modern artistic approach.

  • William Shakespeare's dirge, "The Phoenix and the Turtle," is still a crux in the Shakespearean canon and interpretation. The poem is still believed a dark allegory dealing with some arcane and obscure courtly matters and politics. However, we cannot recover its allegorical significance. This interpretive situation enforces us to read the poem as a self-conscious artwork in terms of its paradoxical language and meta-poetic metaphors. Paradox, as a subspecies of metaphor, challenges categorical and judgmental absolutes, and produces a sense of wonder in reconciling the logically contradictory opposites. In this poem the urn containing the ashes of the phoenix and the turtle is the icon of the mysterious unity of art, born of the wonderful marriage of male and female. Shakespeare's poem demonstrates in itself the magical power of poetic language in transforming an elegy into an epithalamion. The union of the phoenix and the turtle defies the singularity of their respective entity, and at the same time it retains their distinctive particularity of the two-ness. This neo-Platonic mystery of the "married chastity" is a paradox which confounds reason and verifies the poetic truth of imaginative intellect. The marriage of Christian perichoresis is crystallized in the artwork of the urn, which is admired at by posterity, though the marriage was issueless, due to its passing virtue. "The Phoenix and the Turtle" depicts the metaphor-making process and its effect, the poem.

  • 대추야자나무(Phoenix dactylifera)는 고대 메소포타미아, 이집트, 유다, 그리스, 로마에 이르기까지 생명과 축복, 승리를 상징하는 중요한 수목으로 정원과 과수원에 심겨졌으며, 열매와 그늘을 제공하였다. BC 2세기경에 임금에게 바치던 예물에도 대추야자나무 가지가 언급되고 있다. "대추야자나무의 가지"는 초막절에 사용되었고, 높고 귀한 것에 비유되기도 하며, 신전 벽에 커룹과 함께 새겨져 있었다. 성경에서 대추야자나무(Phoenix dactylifera)는 강한 바람을 받으면서도 곧게 자라기 때문에 의인에 비교함과 동시에 정직, 정의 및 공정을 상징하는 나무로 삼았다. 수난을 앞둔 그리스도가 예루살렘에 입성할 때 군중이 대추야자나무의 잎을 길에 깔고 예수님을 맞이했다고 해서 부활절 직전의 주일을 Palm Sunday(聖枝主日 성지주일)이라고 부른다. 중세에는 성지(聖地) 순례의 기념으로 대추야자나무의 잎을 가지고 돌아가는 풍습이 생겨서 순례자를 영어로 Palmer라고 부르게 되었다. 이 연구는 Phoenix dactylifera의 명명 문제를 고전과 한국, 중국, 일본의 성경 번역사에서 영향력 있는 성경 27가지 버전을 통해 분석하였다. 중국 성경에서는 대추야자나무를 자국에서 자라는 유사한 나무인 '棕櫚(종려 Trachycarpus fortunei)'로 번역하고 있다. 그러나 '종려(棕櫚)'와 대추야자나무는 열매와 잎에서 확연한 차이점이 있기 때문에 상징적인 의미를 전달하는데 한계성을 지닌 번역이다. 일본 성경에서는 대추야자나무를 뜻하는 'なつめやし(Natsumeyashi)'로 번역하고 있다. 우리나라 개신교 성경은 대부분 '종려나무'로 번역하고 있고, 가톨릭 "성경(2005)"에서는 '야자나무(38회)', '종려나무(5회)', 대추야자나무(3회)를 혼용하고 있다. 대추야자나무, 종려나무, 그리고 야자나무가 우리나라에 자라지 않는 식물이지만, 한국고전에서는 이미 오래전부터 중국이나 일본을 통해 해조(海棗), 야자(椰子), 종려(?櫚)로 알려져 구분해서 사용하였고, 각각 특성에 맞는 다른 명칭으로 불리어져 왔음을 알 수 있다. 중국고문헌에서도 종려나무와 해조(대추야자나무)는 확실히 구분해서 쓰고 있다. "재등화영대사전(?藤和英大辭典)(1915)"과 "모던조선외래어사전(朝鮮外來語辭典)(1938)", "라틴-한글 사전(1995)" 등에서는 'palm'을 '종려'로 번역하였기 때문에 혼란성이 가중된 것으로 보인다. 그러나, 라틴어 사전에서 "Palmae"는 palm tree 혹은 date palm으로 번역된다. 이 연구의 결과는 성경에서 Phoenix dactylifera의 더 정확한 번역은 '대추야자나무'로, 나무의 특성에 맞는 이름을 사용하는 것이 더 적절할 것이라고 본다.

  • It is said that the mainstream of the oriental culture is Confucian culture, but not be the unique culture of Korea. The religious object in Taoist ideology of immortality reflecting the awareness of cultural community and Korean identity was three spirits. Three spirits are one spirit in terms of main subject. Three spirits were named because they rule the heaven, the earth and human beings each in the reality. The custom performing the religious service to the heaven and the earth is not based on the Taoist ideology of immortality but only the superstition which we can't understand. However, we can clearly understand the reason why the ideology has been transmitted up to now in our awareness and culture when we understand the basis of that ideology. The theory on the origin based on the birthplace of Taoist ideology would be based on the shamanism of Eastern barbarianism and their cultural features. Accordingly, this paper aimed to identify the formative features of phoenix pattern and background of the formation of phoenix pattern based on the unique culture of Korea. Furthermore, the traditional craft works of Korea with the phoenix pattern which secured its position as the representative pattern of Korea will be investigated.

  • Sixteen microsatellite markers (simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers) were employed to examine the genetic stability of 27 randomly chosen date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) plants produced through somatic embryogenesis with upto forty two in vitro subcultures. No microsatellite DNA variation was observed among all micropropagated plants. Our results indicate that the micropropagation protocol used for rapid in vitro multiplication is appropriate and suitable for clonal propagation of date palm and corroborated that somatic embryogenesis can also be used as one of the safe modes for production of true-to-type plants of date palm. This is the first report on the use of microsatellite DNA markers to establish the genetic stability in micropropagated date palm plants.

  • 1979년 국가민속문화재로 지정된 광화당 원삼은 보존상태가 상당히 양호하다. 그러나 지정조사 시에는 없던 봉흉배가 부착되어 '봉흉배가 달린 유일한 자적원삼(紫赤圓衫)' 유물로 알려지면서 보존처리의 필요성이 제기되었다. 이에 지정문화재에 대한 잘못된 정보를 바로잡기 위한 과학적 분석과 동시에 지정 상태로의 원형 복원도 요구되었다. 본 연구를 통해 광화당 원삼에 대한 유물 이력을 조사하고, 현전하는 봉흉배와 봉흉배 수본(繡本) 등의 유물 조사를 병행하여 원형 복원에 대한 자료를 확보하였다. 직접적으로는 에너지 분산형 X선 형광분석을 실시하여, 봉흉배에 사용된 금속사가 은을 기본으로 티타늄 코팅한 것을 확인하였다. 티타늄으로 도금된 금사를 사용한 봉흉배는 1986년 광화당 원삼 사진에서는 확인되지 않았으며, TiN계 피막 도금법이 1990년대에는 여러 산업에서 활용되었다는 점에서 1990년대 초중반에 봉흉배가 부착된 것으로 추정할 수 있다. 특히 X선 형광분석을 활용한 금사의 과학적 분석 결과를 통해 보존처리의 핵심적인 근거자료를 확보하였다. 본고는 전세 유물 보존처리에 있어 유물 이력과 유사 유물 조사의 중요성에 대한 각성과 지정문화재에 대한 잘못된 정보를 바로잡을 수 있는 원형복원의 선례로서 의미가 있다.
