Borges created two collections of poems in 1965 and 1969 respectively. The six-stringed guitar is another name for the guitar. The book contains eleven poems written by Borges about guitar tunes and advises readers to make up for the music they cannot hear by imagining "a person sitting on the threshold of his house or in a store holding a guitar while playing and singing." "Ode to Shadows" is the author's fifth collection of poems. In addition to the often mentioned mirrors, labyrinths and swords, two new themes have been added: old age and ethics.

The four-hand collaboration between Borges and famous artists, fantasy and reality, past and present, space and time, those abrupt endings die over and over again in the writer's writing, and are resurrected again and again in the readers' hearts. Capture the light of philosophy in the name of literature, and build an exquisite labyrinth of literature with extraordinary imagination. "The Complete Works of Borges: The Third Volume" includes the literary essays of Borges, the Argentine poet, novelist, critic, translator and master of Spanish literature, as well as fantasy stories, game articles, movie scripts, literary reviews, speech records, etc. Co-authored by Borges and Adolfo Bioy Casares and others. There are 12 volumes in total, which fully demonstrate Borges's writing exploration and achievements outside the well-known literary fields. Attached are 12 volumes with titles of works: "Original Manuscripts", "Introduction to English Literature", "Introduction to American Literature", "Suburbanites Believer's Paradise", "Chronicles of Bustos Domec", "New Stories of Bustos Domec", "Six Mysteries of Isidro Parodi", "Two Visions Worth Remembering", "Models of Death", "The Language of Buenos Aires", "About Martin Fierro", "Germanic Medieval Literature".

This collection of essays, published in 1930, is Borges's introduction and evaluation of the life and works of Argentine poet Evaristo Callego, as well as his imagination of Argentine city life. Evaristo Callego is a poet rooted in the city. The suburbs he writes are completely different from the environment in which Borges grew up, full of laughter but tense at any time. Tango, six-stringed harp, dagger, hero, traitor and other keywords of suburban life merged into the world in Borges's eyes.

"I taught English literature at the university for a full forty semesters, and not only that, I also tried to convey my love for English literature." "Professor Borges: Twenty-Five Literature Lessons" brings together the complete content of the English literature course that Borges taught at the School of Philosophy and Literature at the University of Buenos Aires in 1966. In these twenty-five lessons, Borges takes us on a true journey through English literature, always staying close to his own readings and works. The journey begins in the mists of time, beginning with the arrival of the Angles, Jutes, and Saxons in England, continuing to the work of Samuel Johnson; wandering to Macpherson, the Romantic poets, and the Victorian era; offering a panoramic view of the lives and works of the Pre-Raphaelites; and ending in nineteenth-century Samoa with one of Borges's favorite writers, Robert Louis Stevenson. What ties these lectures together is an authentic enjoyment of literature, the affection with which Borges approached each work, and his desire to share his enthusiasm for each author and period he studied.

"The Book of Sand" + "Shakespeare's Memory" are the final works of Borges' novels. This book is a collection of novels by Borges, the Argentinian poet, novelist, critic, translator, and master of Spanish literature. It includes Borges's short story collection "The Book of Sand" published in 1975 and his 1983 short story collection "The Memory of Shakespeare". They are the writer's last two consecutive novels. Among them, "The Book of Sand" contains thirteen chapters and is Borges's top work in his later writing period. Facing a "book of sand" with endless pages, at first it was a sense of happiness that we took for ourselves, and finally we realized that it was a terrible monster and the source of all troubles. This book is the embodiment of Borges's book worship complex and symbolizes the infinite universe and world. People try their best to break through the unknown, but in the end they experience the infinite and confirm their own insignificance and powerlessness. "Shakespeare's Memory" contains four chapters, including "August 25, 1983", "The Blue Tiger", "The Rose of Paracelsus" and "Shakespeare's Memory". In each chapter, there appears another "I" coexisting with "I", the blue "pebble" that can be derived, the "rose" that is reborn after destruction, and the "memory of Shakespeare" that appears in each chapter. The "memory of Shakespeare" that a person remembers seems to be the presentation of dreams. In fact, Borges uses dreams to explore the relationship between the three human abilities-memory, understanding, and fantasy. Memory is like a cave. It is not a superposition of the past, but a mixture of various possibilities with unclear meanings.

A collection of essays, published in 1936, containing eight articles. Among them, "The History of Eternity" sorts out and denies the history of "eternity" in Platonism and Christian theology, and "Two Commentaries: Approaching Almotaxin" attempts to prove the "circular" nature of time... "Eternity," "reincarnation," and "cycle" all point to the proposition of time.

A collection of essays, published in 1932, which includes book and film reviews written by Borges and discusses his views on literature and art. For example, "Gaucho Poems" and "Argentinian Writers and Tradition" focus on the local literary style of Argentina; "The Other Whitman" and "Flaubert and His Iconic Goals" turn their attention to world literature; "Achilles and the Eternal Race of the Tortoise" and "The Metamorphosis of the Tortoise" explore the philosophical propositions that the author has in mind. The article covers a wide range of topics. Borges said: "My life lacks life and death. It is this lack that makes me reluctantly like these trivial things."

Eliot's 60th anniversary edition, the pioneering work of the New Criticism in British and American literature; a must-read document for English literary theory and writing courses; subverting "tradition" with tradition and defending individuality with impersonality. What is tradition? How should poets, or artists, view the relationship between their creations and tradition? Eliot gave a conclusive conclusion in his famous article "Tradition and Individual Talent": Tradition is not a blind or timid adherence to the successful methods of the previous generation, but something with a much broader significance. It contains historical consciousness and is not inherited. To obtain it requires a lot of labor. This work was the foundation of New Criticism and directly influenced the birth of later critical classics such as Bloom's "The Anxiety of Influence" and Leavis's "The Great Tradition". The "impersonality" theory mentioned in the article - poetry is not the release of emotion, but the escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but the escape from personality. It has also become a crucial theory in modern literature, and has had a huge impact on Roland Barthes's "The Author is Dead" and Michel Foucault's "What is the Author". In addition to this article that provides a comprehensive and holistic reflection on literature, the collection of the same name "Tradition and Individual Talent" also includes Eliot's evaluation and appreciation of specific poets, focusing on the discussion and analysis of the literary creation of the Elizabethan era. As a poet who is highly conscious of the nature and process of poetry creation, Eliot's creation and his criticism are closely linked. This anthology allows us to better appreciate his creations through his criticism, and at the same time, it also helps us better understand the nature of literature.

"Gitanjali" means "poetry" in Hindi. It consists of 103 poems, which were selected by Tagore when he was 50 years old from his three collections of poems - "Navidya", "Kaya", "Gitanjali" and poems scattered in newspapers and magazines since 1908. Tagore integrated modern Western humanism and scientific thought with traditional Indian religion, devoted himself to absorbing the positive meanings of various Indian teachings, and combined modern Western civilization with the spirit of Indian classical philosophy to create a unique "poet's religion." The profound connotation of this philosophy of life is fully reflected in "Gitanjali". As a representative work of pantheism, "Gitanjali" describes the poet's praise of God, his desire for God's arrival, his disappointment in missing God, and his carnival in union with God. It embodies the poet's yearning and contemplation of the infinite world. Isha, Old G's translation enables readers to feel the poet's life passion and invisible power from the lines of poems, guiding readers into the world of passion and love built by the poet.

The well-known social trend observer Kenichi Ohmae's predictions are completely accurate. It is a best-selling topic book that spreads from East Asia to the world; low birth rate, super aging, consumption reduction... The whole world is becoming a "low desire society", how to face the decline of beauty? When the "low desire society" finally becomes today's unchanging reality, how can the government and the people revive it? "Low Desire Society" is a best-selling social observation masterpiece published in 2018 by the famous Japanese management scientist and "Mr. Strategy" Kenichi Ohmae. The book focuses on Japan's current socio-economic status and characteristics, and summarizes social problems that other mature countries have not yet encountered into one word, "low desire society" - population decline, super aging, and loss of upper class. There are more and more young people with ambition and desire; citizens hold a large amount of financial assets, and companies have high internal reserves, but they fail to use funds effectively. Whether it is monetary easing policy or public investment, it cannot improve consumer confidence, and money-spreading policies cannot revitalize the economy... Faced with the problem of a "low desire society", even if stocks continue to rise, it is not a happy time. However, Ohmae Kenichi also pointed out that he is not trying to blame young people for having low desires, because this tendency to have no desires and desires is also a reasonable choice in the context of the times. What must be considered is how citizens and businesses should respond in a "low desire society". The "low desire" young group has a serious impact on enterprises, and subsequent generations may also have similar values. Companies must truly analyze their thoughts and behaviors, accurately grasp their values, and re-formulate various strategies and business models. In response to problems such as low desire, insufficient manpower, and a sluggish economy, "Low Desire Society" cites the practices of countries with similar precedents in Europe and the United States and puts forward a series of corresponding strategic suggestions, such as urban redevelopment, how to use idle land, improvement of immigration policies, optimization of supporting construction of tourist destinations, stimulating consumption of "mature adults", transformation of talent education, etc. The observations and countermeasures made in "Low Desire Society" are very helpful for readers to understand Japan's socio-economic status and development, and also serve as a warning. At the same time, based on the above observations and the understanding and sense of crisis that "in the 21st century, the key to achieving a career is to cultivate and possess top talents," Ohmae put forward the concept of "education with global aspirations" for parents and young people, which is also very enlightening for domestic readers.

Deep study of the scriptures does not make people better or worse, nor does it make citizens more useful or harmful. The mind's self-talk is not inherently a social reality. The whole point of the Western classics is to enable people to make good use of their loneliness, the ultimate form of which is a person's encounter with his own death.

"My Loneliness is a Garden: Selected Poems of Adonis" is a selection and translation of seventeen collections of poems by the translator from the time when the poet entered the poetry world nearly fifty years ago. The poet Adonis is a rebel with a clear attitude, who fights against power and current customs with his indomitable stubbornness. His poems overlook all aspects of life from the perspective of all mankind. His chanting of the eternal themes of those poems reached an otherworldly, profound and timeless realm. His love poems are not afraid of the secular world and want to justify the body and sensuality; but there is no vulgar interest in being intimate with each other, but they show the desolation of life and time. Adonis considered himself a "spiritual exile." Poetry alone, however, was his true place of exile. In his eyes, poetry is supreme, and "the era when poetry ends is just another kind of death."

It is filled with romantic ideals of pursuing personal happiness, calling for individual liberation, and opposing the feudal system. It is deeply touching. It is a masterpiece of romanticism in the history of Chinese opera. Du Liniang is one of the most touching images of women in Chinese classical literature after Cui Yingying. Her life and death for love calls for the liberation of personality, freedom of love, and independence in marriage, and exposes the destruction of people's happy lives and beautiful ideals by feudal ethics. "The Peony Pavilion" is famous for its beautiful diction, its lyrics are organic and interesting, and its music and lyrics take advantage of both the vigorous and turbulent Northern music and the subtle and elegant Southern poetry. Ming Lu Tiancheng called it "thrilling, ingenious and endlessly innovative, truly worthy of the ages!"

"Faust" is Goethe's representative work, a poetic tragedy. It was created based on a folk legend in the 16th century. It is a masterpiece that Goethe devoted his whole life to writing. It describes the protagonist Faust's painful experience of searching for truth throughout his life, and reflects the history of the entire Europe from the Renaissance to the early 19th century.

"Hamlet" contains Shakespeare's four most famous tragedies: "Hamlet", "Othello", "King Lear" and "Macbeth". In order to avenge his father, Hamlet found that "the whole era was out of joint" and decided to take up the responsibility of "rearranging the world". The result was that his ambition was empty and he was unable to recover. Othello is an upright and honest man who trusts people but hates evil as much as he hates evil. He killed his wife and himself under the influence of an adulterer. In pursuit of the best and the most beautiful, he suffered evil retribution. King Lear lost his nature in the honor, pride, and self-confidence that power brought to him. He lost his role as a king and became an ordinary person. He could be equally or even greater, so he suffered a lot of pain. Macbeth was originally a meritorious hero with a kind and beautiful side in his character. However, driven by the temptation of the throne and ambition, he became a sinner who "went from blood to blood" and regretted nothing. The tragedies of these characters profoundly reveal the various social evils that have begun to appear during the period of primitive accumulation of capital, and show the irreconcilable contradiction between humanistic ideals and cruel reality, which has a high degree of general significance.

The influence of the Surrealist movement, the spiritual shock brought by his trip to America in 1929, and the emotional and psychological crisis he experienced changed Lorca's understanding of drama. He began to experiment with surrealism in his theater practice to explore new breakthroughs in drama structure, characters, and themes. This led to the creation of "The Love of Dom Perrin and Belisa in the Garden," "The Audience," and "Five Years Like This". These three alternative works were particularly subversive in his entire drama creation, in sharp contrast to his "Country Trilogy" with realism as the main style. One of them, "The Spectator," was even called an "impossible drama" by Lorca himself. These three dramas embody the author's poetic and aesthetic concepts. Behind the plots of the dramas are the author's profound thoughts on "how drama shows reality" and "what is reality". And deep thinking about "what is reality".

The queen finally succeeded in persuading him to stay, and Leontes finally succeeded in persuading him to stay.

Sixteen years later, Perdita, who was rescued by a Bohemian shepherd, grew up and fell in love with the Bohemian prince Florizel. However, she was strongly opposed by the Bohemian king. The two eloped to Sicily, which eventually led to the recognition of Leontes and Perdita as father and daughter, and Hermione's "resurrection" from the statue...
