"I was born into this world to soothe the pain and disappointment of women in the world." This book is a selection of short stories by the Japanese Meiji era female writer Higuchi Kazuyo, including 11 of her most outstanding works. Higuchi Ichiyo wrote in classical Chinese, and his style imitated Ihara Saizuru's eclectic style.

Although her works mostly describe the turbulence and tragedy of women in the times, her writing is not weak, but full of tenacity and sober lamentation that sees through the world. She observes the characters of the times with empathy from the bottom, and is keenly aware of the completely different outcomes of people from different classes in a changing world. The protagonists of these works include craftsmen who have been abandoned by the times, maids who steal money for their families, and ordinary girls who have lost their love. Most of their lives are tragedies, but they all accept their fate with tenacity and end with a touch of sadness.

In the book, Nietzsche created the important concepts of "Apollinian spirit" and "Dionysian spirit", using this as an entry point to reinterpret ancient Greek culture with a unique perspective and wise language, and then explore the origin, essence and function of art and even the meaning of life. Nietzsche believed that the art of Apollo (Apollo) is manifested in sculptures and epics, which is a dream art; the art of Dionysus (Dionysus) is manifested in music, which is the art of drunkenness. Greek tragedy originated from the chorus of Dionysian sacrifices and was the product of the fusion of "Apollinian spirit" and "Dionysian spirit". Nietzsche regarded the "Dionysian spirit" as the fundamental foundation of Greek art, that is, "the affirmation of life... The will to life that rejoices in the endlessness of its vitality." He believes that when Greek tragedy reached its peak, the enemy that caused its demise also emerged, that is, the critical spirit of Greek Enlightenment philosophy represented by Socrates. Greek tragedy "died to destruction" in the opposition between Dionysus and Socrates, but Nietzsche predicted that the "Dionysian spirit" will surely reappear, and a new tragic era will surely come.

"Pride and Prejudice" is a novel written by the British writer Jane Austen. It was originally written in 1796 under the name "First Impression". It was revised and published in 1813 under its current name. The novel is set against the background of middle-class life in rural England from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It presents the social picture through various stories about the five daughters of the Bennet family and their mother's search for an ideal marriage partner. The work focuses on the emotional entanglement between the second daughter Elizabeth and Darcy: the two had misunderstandings due to pride and prejudice, and gradually eliminated their misunderstandings after experiencing family scandals, property disputes and other incidents, and finally achieved an ideal marriage. Through the profit-based marriage of Charlotte and Collins and the vanity-based union of Lydia and Wickham, the novel clearly opposes the concept of marrying for property, money and status, emphasizing that the sincere feelings between men and women are the cornerstone of marriage. Austen uses irony and delicate dialogue to depict characters. His language style is both humorous and critical, showing the world and human feelings under a conservative social atmosphere. The work has been adapted into movies and TV series many times since its publication.

271K0

"The Complete Essays of Montaigne" has a total of 107 chapters and more than 1 million words. It was published in three volumes in France from 1580 to 1588. Since then, the book has never been out of print. "The Complete Essays of Montaigne" is a voluminous volume with extensive quotations, brilliant literary talent and moving eloquence. Together with Bacon's "On Life" and Pascal's "Thoughts" (already included in the "Most Classic English Library"), it is known as the three classics of modern European philosophical prose. Since then, the essay has been established as a literary style. The background of the creation of "The Complete Essays of Montaigne" was during the French Civil War. The cruelty of the religious war deeply hurt Montaigne's heart. The sorrow and pain of the chaos of his family and country ran through the process of writing the essays. However, as a thinker, he tried to maintain a sense of rationality and depth in his creations. He turned his anger into fresh and exciting words. By talking about himself, humanity, and the world, he guided people to understand the true meaning of life contained in the words. The content of Montaigne's essays is complex and roughly focused on three aspects. The first is the author's self-writing and expression. Montaigne advocated pursuing a life of self, and his essays recorded his simple and natural lifestyle, his true appearance, and his personality. In the "Preface", Montaigne made it clear: "Reader, this is a sincere book... I wrote this book purely for my family and myself." "I would rather appear in front of readers in a simple, natural and ordinary manner without making any artificial efforts, because what I depict is myself." Famous "Love Life" is his reflection on the value and meaning of life: "Our life is gifted by nature, and it is extremely superior"; "Seeing that my time in life is limited, the more I want to increase the weight of life." Secondly, the essay records the author's experience and thinking of reading ancient sages, and then questioning human nature. In "On Hermitage", Montaigne explores the true purpose and correct way of hermit life by introducing the poems of Horace, Virgil and others. As a humanist, he emphasizes putting people first and believes that people are the most beautiful existence in the world. He highly admired the wisdom of Socrates and agreed that human wisdom should not be used to destroy oneself. Self-righteousness is the greatest weakness of human beings.
