This book was selected from a vast collection of Tang and Song poems by Yu Pingbo, a master of Chinese studies. The selection of words is slightly broader, and he strives to reflect the stylistic characteristics of the poet and the development path of his words. This book contains 251 poems from the Tang Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, divided into three volumes. The first volume contains poems from the Tang and Five Dynasties, and is divided into three parts: 1. Tang Dynasty, 2. "Huajian", and 3. Southern Tang Dynasty; a total of eighty-seven poems. The middle and second volumes are composed of Song poems, totaling 164 poems. The middle volume is titled "Song Ci I", and the second volume is titled "Song Ci II", which is equivalent to the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty.

"Han Poems" selected by Shen Deqian aims at "tracing the roots of Tang poetry" and systematically combs the development of poetry in the Han Dynasty. It not only presents the dual peaks of "Yuefu narrative" and "literati lyricism", but also conveys his literary concept of "poetry as the foundation and style as the sect" through comments. The political lyricism of emperors and heroes, the political and religious function of court poetry, the social picture of Yuefu poetry, the artistic breakthroughs of literati's five-character poetry and narrative poetry, and the true records of folk suffering are all presented in extremely rich ways.

Shen Deqian's "Chen Poetry" section tries to include the works of major Chen poets in the Southern Dynasties, and more comprehensively demonstrates the characteristics of the poetic style of this period that tended to be extravagant and gaudy. Although Shen had reservations about this style of judgment, he still regarded it as an important link in the development chain of poetry and believed that it was helpful in understanding the evolution of poetry before the rise of Tang poetry. The poets Xu Ling and Yu Xin can be read carefully. The poetry of the Northern Wei Dynasty mainly embodies simplicity and vigor, loyalty, filial piety, justice, and the collision of grassland culture and Central Plains culture. The "Poetry of Mulan" that readers are familiar with is one of the best works.

This book starts from the events that happened in the United States in a summer of 1927, and tells the prosperity, absurdity and madness of the entire 1920s. In 1927, the U. S. Economy was in excellent condition, with an inflation rate of 0 for four consecutive years. 50% Of the world's gold is in the United States, and most of it is stored in the basement of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The United States manufactures 85% of the world's cars, shoots 80% of the movies, and produces 42% of the goods. President Coolidge only worked 4 hours a day and spent most of the rest of the time napping. Moreau, a banker at J. P. Morgan, had 32 servants in his home, which was occupied mostly only on weekends. In 1929, Raskob, chairman of the Democratic Party of the United States, said that anyone can make a fortune from stocks. But in fact, he anticipated that the stock market was about to collapse and had already cashed out most of his stocks...

In this generally recognized great work, Polanyi's main concern is: the causes of the decline of Western civilization in the 19th century. From the perspective of socioeconomic history, Polanyi outlined the conflict between the requirements of the capitalist world economy and the pursuit of social welfare within the nation-state.

This theme is the summary of Polanyi's life thought.

"The Age of Louis XIV" is the eighth volume of the "The Story of Civilization" series of "Utopia Classics Hall". From the signing of the Treaty of Westphalia to the death of Louis XIV. France reached the pinnacle of culture and art under the rule of the "Sun King". Dutch democracy casts a ray of light on monarchical Europe. Britain's Glorious Revolution established the rule of law and freedom for future generations. The theme of this era is the "Great Controversy" between faith and reason. Although faith still occupies the throne, reason is blooming in the new theories of Hobbes, Locke, Newton, Spinoza, and Leibniz. Thinkers engaged in "intellectual adventures," believing it possible to understand the universe and even form a "clear and intelligible conception" of God. They have different opinions on science and philosophy. Compared with the 18th century, which was called the "Age of Reason," this period is more appropriately called "rational."

"The Age of Innocence" is a 1920 work by Edith Wharton. In 1921, the book won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature, making Mrs. Wharton the first female writer to win the award. In this work, May and Newland, a pair of golden girls from the upper class, are about to get married. At this time, the bride's cousin Ellen escaped from a bad marriage and returned to New York from Europe. She was plagued by rumors. Her arrival shook Newland's mind. At first, Newland was worried that Ellen's stain would affect the family about to get married. Soon, he began to be attracted to this woman who ignored the obsolete rules of New York's upper class society, and he had doubts about whether he wanted to marry May, the perfect product of old New York society. This is a dilemma between red roses and white roses, as well as a struggle between social stereotypes and individual freedom. Compared with "Fun House", "The Age of Innocence" is a novel with a softer and more elegant tone. In her biography, Wharton wrote that the book "The Age of Innocence" allowed her to "temporarily escape from the present, return to her childhood, and return to an America that has long disappeared... In 1914, the world I grew up in and heard was destroyed." Many scholars and readers also agree that "The Age of Innocence" is fundamentally a story that attempts to reconcile the contradictions between the old and the new world.

Professor Han Dawei's academic career can be divided into two stages. Before the 1990s, he was mainly engaged in Xiongnu studies, and after 2000, he was mainly engaged in Chinese Confucian classics research. His Confucian classics research has a distinctive feature, that is, it discusses Confucian classics from the perspective of philology, focusing on the inheritance of Confucian classics. Professor Han hopes that by writing the "History of Chinese Confucian Studies" series, he can summarize his approximately 20 years of research on Confucian classics and fill the gap in the Western academic community that does not yet have a general history of Chinese Confucian studies. "History of Chinese Confucian Studies? Zhou Dynasty Volume" involves the study of Chinese Confucian classics texts using Western Confucian study methods. Such research is also based on historical facts and explores the academic mechanism of Confucian classics in the Zhou Dynasty. It is a rare research work on the history of Confucian classics.

Currently, human society is facing three major challenges: technological subversion, ecological collapse and nuclear war. The identity of "country" is no longer sufficient to meet today's challenges. No country can solve global problems independently. Artificial intelligence and biotechnology are subverting the original social structure and distribution methods, and data has become the most important resource. When data giants know themselves better than we do, and when "online" becomes a way of survival, how to regulate the ownership of data? Can a global community that upholds human freedom and equality be established? Artificial intelligence and biotechnology have given humans the ability to reshape and redesign life. How can we use this ability to stage a new drama? In a world where information is bombarded with information that is often useless, clarity is a power. For various issues related to the destiny of mankind, Yuval Harari did not give simple answers in "A Brief History of Today", but triggered us to think further.

This book is one of the research results of the famous sinologist Professor Nicolas Standaert on the exchanges of historiography and historical chronology between China and Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It mainly examines the role of a special genre of history books that appeared in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties - "Gangjian style" historical books - in the cultural exchanges between China and the West, and its impact on Western writing of ancient Chinese history. This book is mainly divided into two parts. The first part discusses the genealogy of Gangjian's historical works in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and the narratives of Chinese history and chronology by Europeans who came to China, as well as their sources of Chinese historical materials. Based on the comparison of the two, the core point of the book is introduced - the interweaving of cultures in Chinese history writing; the second part focuses on ancient Chinese history. Focusing on the Chinese Emperor Ku and his wives and concubines, we trace Ku's life trajectory and the legend of his wives' "miraculous birth" through different records in different texts, and use this as a main clue to reconstruct the genealogy of historical texts and the differences between different types of historical books, and explore Europeans' interpretation of Chinese historical texts from the perspective of cross-cultural hermeneutics.

This book does not seek to prove historical events or chronology, but is committed to guiding readers to think and explore the new mission of current history - how to re-understand and study history? Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas, connected by the ocean, were successively reconnected through religion, media, and electronic technology. The author uses various means such as contemporary photography, film, opera, music and even comics to present the current situation of the integration of mixed cultural and historical heritage in the post-colonial world. He uses the diversity of several continents in the world as the basis for rewriting history, and depicts a history of the intersection between Islam and Christianity, and the cultural spirit of capitalism and socialism. In this book, readers will experience the different positions and mentality of European colonists, colonial elites, colonial natives and mixed-race descendants, traveling between North America where Mexico is located, South America where Peru and Brazil are located, Europe represented by Portugal and Spain, the Muslim world of the Ottoman Empire, and China and Malaysia in the Far East.

"A History of Europe" is the representative work of British historian Norman Davis. It designs a time and space coordinate system for European history, presenting a rare overall historical impression. It combines traditional narrative methods with close-ups, and accommodates various strange things and ideas that are often ignored by serious historians. It has become a valuable and convincing European general history work in recent years. "European History: The Age of Empires (approximately 330-1493)" tells the history of the European Middle Ages. The central theme of the Middle Ages was the reorganization of Christianity into a new imperial system: from Charlemagne's coronation to the Grand Duke Ivan III of Moscow proclaiming himself Tsar. The foundation of this new system is inseparable from the activities of neighboring peoples such as the Vikings, Magyars, and Mongols. With the addition of new nations, the Christian community continues to expand, and division and decline are brewing within this community. By the late Middle Ages, people realized that the Christian church was riddled with disease, but they were helpless on how to cure it. The Black Death was regarded as God's punishment for the sins of the Christian world. However, the dark society already contains the tendency of change and innovation. It can be said that Europeans in the late Middle Ages were babies born from disaster...

"Memoirs of the Roman Civil War" is a memoir written by Caesar after the civil war. Although the civil war ended with Pompey's defeat, the republican forces opposing Caesar remained strong after the war. In order to declare the inevitability of his victory over Pompey and at the same time avoid arousing fierce resistance from the opponents, Caesar used the third person "he" in most cases in the book to show that Caesar was objective rather than subjective. Unfortunately, this book does not stitch up the irreconcilable contradictions between republicans and monarchists, slavery and feudalism. In the end, Caesar was assassinated, and a new civil war broke out again... This civil war was a key battle in Rome's transformation from slavery to feudalism, and republic to monarchy, and had a profound impact on the historical trend of the entire Europe.

"Memoirs of the Gallic War" is a memoir written by Caesar after he conquered Gaul. It uses a unique creative perspective and superb narrative method to tell the entire process of the eight-year fierce war with the Western European ethnic groups. During the war, the Roman legions commanded by Caesar gained unprecedented combat experience, and their combat effectiveness was astonishingly improved. Only by deeply understanding the Gallic War can we deeply understand why Caesar, who was at a disadvantage economically, politically, and militarily, was able to defeat Pompey, who was in an advantage, in the subsequent Roman Civil War. This war was of great significance and had a far-reaching impact. It profoundly shaped the political and geographical pattern of Europe, changed the development trajectory of many ethnic groups, greatly accelerated the spread of Roman civilization to the north, and the Greek-Roman civilization circle that laid the foundation of European culture took shape.

"Three Stories" is the last complete fictional work published by Gustave Flaubert during his lifetime. It was created over a period of 30 years and is recognized as the author's mature work. It is the concentrated expression of Flaubert's novel art. Turgenev did not wait for the French original to be completed as a book before he translated it into Russian. Falcaut said: "Those who know Flaubert, find him here; those who don't know him, know him here." Among them, "The Legend of St. Julian's Mercy" is based on a medieval story. The author eliminates the bad and retains the essence, bringing the ethereal legend back to reality; "A Simple Heart" turns decay into magic, turning non-legendary material into a moving short story; "Herodias" makes history come alive again, concentrating conflicts into one day, from morning to night, recalling the rigorous structure of drama.

"The Eye of the Storm" is the representative novel of Patrick White, Australia's first Nobel Prize winner for literature, establishing his status as a literary giant. The novel uses Mrs. Hunter's activities from her critical life to her burial as the story frame.

In Sydney, in a decaying mansion, Elizabeth Hunter, who is over eighty years old, resists the approach of death. In front of the hospital bed, a pair of children driven by profit, three nurses with different personalities, a clown-like housekeeper, and an upright but cowardly lawyer all staged a tragicomedy of intrigue, love and hate in this hypocritical and indifferent family. Elizabeth, who was once beautiful and dissolute, greedily grabbed everything and harmed her family and friends; but the approach of death allowed her to find the perfect state of goodness that she had never found throughout her life while half asleep. Just like what Elizabeth experienced on the island many years ago, the painful storm will cleanse away the emptiness and absurdity of life, bringing a pure and quiet eye of the storm.

It uses a lyrical style and delicate writing to describe the young Sinclair's journey of pursuing himself, firmly becoming himself, and exploring his own destiny. This psychological novel can be said to be Hesse's iconic and monumental masterpiece. Sinclair, who was born and grew up in the "light world", accidentally discovered a completely different "another world".

From then on, he began his lonely journey to find himself. In the years that followed, "Demian" appeared in different identities and became his guide every time he was searching alone and making difficult decisions. German literary master Thomas Mann commented: "This is a work that hits the nerves of the times with its extremely accurate description. A whole generation of young people are convinced that a spokesperson comes from the depths of their lives, and they are grateful and fascinated by him. Everyone's life is a journey to self, an attempt on a road, a quiet call of a trail. ." Speaking of Hesse, Paulo Coelho said: "Herman Hesse has already felt the inner turmoil of our generation, the inherent need to find his own way in youth; this need makes each of us demand what is naturally ours: our own life. This kind of prophetic vision will surely inspire people in the future."

Whether it is the elegant chapter of "The grass is green and the people are far away by a stream" or the rich chapter of "The phoenixes are singing and the green trees are floating in the dark fragrance", they are all the outpouring of his sincere feelings and the alienation and extension of another form of his poetry...

This book collects Xu Zhimo's exquisite prose of feelings, travel notes and narratives, and is divided into four series: "Hand Marks", "Self-dissection", "Heart Fragrance" and "Writing Thoughts".

This is a book that truly empowers women. Real strength is not about becoming tough, but about becoming gentle. All our external strength and roughness are manifestations of our inner fragility, while our inner strength and calmness manifest outwardly as gentleness and grace. There are people we don't like in life, but there is no one who is lower than us and unworthy of us. Those who are willing to be kind to the world in front of them will definitely be treated gently by the world. May we be strong in our hearts to think like men, but always insist on living like women. May we be gentle on the outside but wild on the inside, and live in the depths of happiness with restraint.

Philip Roth's late masterpiece was highly recommended by many authoritative European and American book review media, and was selected by the New York Times as one of the 50 best memoirs in the past 50 years. Philip Roth, who is good at weaving epics of human nature through novels, unexpectedly published a documentary work - "Legacy - A True Story" in 1991. The focus of his vision is no longer the vast society and grand propositions, but Ross's recently deceased father, an ordinary and humble old Jewish man. In the days before his death, his life was like a river soaked in trivial past events, flowing half-dark before the eyes of him and his son, a writer. The relationship between father and son has never been so close yet strange, both flesh-and-blood and yet estranged. When the life of a loved one enters the countdown, all the thinking and torture, all the fear and sadness, make people breathless - even if this person is Philip Roth, who is famous for his coldness.
