Xiaojing Miao
Yang Jiong 楊炯 (650–ca . 694), though hailed both by his contemporaries and later generations as one of the “Four Elites of the Early Tang,” has yet to receive due scholarly attention. This article contributes to the study of Yang Jiong by examining his “Fu on the Bookcase for Reading While Lying Down” (“Wodu shu- jia fu” 臥讀書架賦). It demonstrates how the poet displays his literary genius by skillfully employing various allusions, using self-deprecating humor for assertive self-display, devising close echoes among different parts, and building an extremely well-balanced structure, written in verse of an elaborately parallel style. More importantly, he cleverly crafts a double text so that both the physical bookcase and he himself, the “mental bookcase,” become the dual subjects of the fu. The interplay between the bookcase, the poet, and his self-representation also contributes to the wider discussions of material culture, social norms, and literary expression.

This article discusses paleographic and linguistic aspects of the Kharoṣṭhī inscriptions on the Tillya-tepe and Pushkalavati coins and adduces some epigraphic and literary parallels. It proposes a syntactically separate reading of the two sides of the Tillya-tepe coin, and concludes that in spite of some differences of execution the coins may have been produced in the same workshop.
本文讨论了Tillya tepe和Pushkalavati硬币上的Kharoṣt 803 hi 772铭文的古地理和语言方面，并列举了一些金石学和文学上的相似之处。它提出了对Tillya tepe硬币两面进行语法上独立的解读，并得出结论，尽管在执行上存在一些差异，但这些硬币可能是在同一个车间生产的。

The “greatness” of the Mahābhārata, its mahat/mahā quality, refers primarily to its intended dynamism as a powerful engine generating the spread of Brahminic teaching throughout the world, casting “heathen” (nāstika) teachings and their patrons into shadow for all time. The Brahmin authors worked to accomplish this end in two main ways. First, they devised a tremendously engaging tale that depicted the decisive victory of a king (Yudhiṣṭhira Pāṇḍava) who accepted Brahmin claims to deserve monopoly-control over teaching the norms of society. Second, they made this tale an extensive magisterium of Brahmin ideology and philosophy, affording to all in society, women and śūdras as well as Aryan men, encouragement to seek the forgiveness of past wrongs at tīrthas and access to the teachings of mokṣa without Vedic initiation.
Mahābhārata的“伟大”，它的mahat/ maha ā质量，主要是指它作为一个强大的动力，在世界各地传播婆罗门教义，将“异教徒”(nāstika)教义和他们的赞助人永远笼罩在阴影中。婆罗门作家主要通过两种方式来实现这一目的。首先，他们设计了一个非常吸引人的故事，描述了一个国王(Yudhiṣṭhira Pāṇḍava)的决定性胜利，他接受了婆罗门的主张，应该垄断控制社会规范的教学。其次，他们把这个故事作为婆罗门思想和哲学的广泛训导，鼓励社会上的所有人，包括妇女和śūdras以及雅利安人，寻求宽恕过去在塔塔斯犯下的错误，并在没有吠陀启蒙的情况下获得mokṣa的教义。
