It is not only the interpretation of Chu dialect, place names, plants, costumes and other unique Chu culture in the inherent impression, it also uses a relatively coherent line to use poetry to tell the story of Qu Yuan's extraordinary life. There are countless allusions in the book, and the commentary is very interesting, such as the struggle between the tribal leader Yi of the poor country and his subordinate Han Zhuo; the fortune teller Ling Feng divined for Qu Yuan to discuss the encounter between the emperor and his ministers; such as the prince Qiao who became an immortal, but could not withstand a blow from a human weapon, and finally the yang energy left the body and turned into a big bird and flew away; there are also several great gods in "The List of Gods", and all the people between the emperor and the princes, performing human dramas over and over again.

Even if their lives are short, they will die without regrets and shepherd the nine states together. It is the blessing of the people.

Not long after the Song of Chu was sung, Chu was gone, Qin unified the world, and the writings and chariots moved in the same direction. In the sky above the rise and fall of his family and country, Qu Yuan's clear and distant gaze stayed forever, the clear sky was vast, and his singing finally became silent.

This book is Lao She's classic drama. Friends who like Lao She's works should not miss it. "Teahouse" is structured into three acts. It takes the rise and fall of a large teahouse called Yutai in old Beijing as the background, and shows the social landscape of Beijing and the life changes of different people from all walks of life in the nearly 50 years from the late Qing Dynasty to the Beiyang Warlord period and then to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Each scene describes an era, with people from all walks of life in Beijing coming in and out of this big teahouse. What the whole play displays are magnificent historical pictures, vividly explaining the inevitable demise of old China and the inevitability of the birth of new China. There are nearly 50 characters appearing in the script. There are many characters but distinct personalities. You can "know the person by hearing their voice" and "outline the outline of a character in a few words." The work depicts the dismal management of the ancestral "Yutai Teahouse" by teahouse owner Wang Lifa. Although he is shrewd, tactful, and devoted, he is ultimately unable to stop the decline. It reflects the trend of Chinese society from the side.

Nobuko Yoshiya, Fumiko Hayashi, Yoko Ohta, Haruko Ushijima, Kikueda Koizumi, Inoko Sata, Shigure Hasegawa and others came to China one after another and created a large number of literary works. Based on an overall review of Japanese female writers' opportunities to come to China, their footprints in China, and their works related to China, this book mainly conducts case studies focusing on specific writers' war writings.

Departure: I Work as a Bailiff in the Court

Prepared By Shanghai Higher People's Court

101K0

This book comprehensively reviews the development footprints of the Shanghai Judicial Police Force over the years, and is compiled and compiled based on the content of radio talk shows. This book has three characteristics: First, it has a wide coverage, covering all aspects of judicial police work, from criminal trial police support to cooperation with enforcement, from security inspections to litigation-related petitions, and from talent training to practical training. It faithfully and completely presents the spiritual outlook of the Shanghai Court Judicial Police in the new era. Second, the characters are highly representative. The storytellers come from Shanghai's third-level courts and specialized courts, including court leaders and heads of judicial police departments; there are experienced "old mages" and backbones in their prime years, as well as fledgling and energetic young bailiffs. They panoramically reflect the important role of judicial police in the execution of court trials from different angles. Third, the stories are deeply appealing. There are those who jumped into the cold river to rescue the person being executed regardless of danger, and those who climbed the swinging ladder on the 10,000-ton ship in the wind and waves just to deliver a verdict. There are those who have great love and donated hematopoietic stem cells to the leukemia boy, and there are those who are not afraid of pain in actual combat training to act as "emotional witnesses", and there are those who warmly "squat" just to get a closer understanding of the elderly's demands. This book is a microcosm of how the Shanghai Court Judicial Police have fulfilled their original mission and served the people wholeheartedly for many years.

A neurologist asks: How does our empathy for animals profoundly affect human health? What is home? Are companion animals part of our family? How can animals help treat mental illness and trauma? Is there a strong correlation between violence against animals and violence against humans? Are we hurting along with animals? How to walk with animals? What happens when we make or break connections with animals? How are humans neurologically designed to empathize with animals? How does violence against animals go against our nature? An expert in animal ethics and neuroscience, Dr. Akhtar studies the relationship between humans and animals and how empathy for animals enriches ourselves. Companion deftly combines medicine, social history, and individual experience to show how closely the well-being of humans and animals is intertwined. Woven throughout is Akhtar's own story. As a child, she encountered bullying at school and sexual abuse at home. Until she meets a puppy named Sylvester, everything changes. Dr. Akhtar asks, what do we gain when we recognize our kinship with animals? She travels the country telling the stories of a variety of people, including a veteran, a serial killer, a gang member and a rancher. Living Together is a journey to understand the nature of human health and ask how our empathy (or lack thereof) for animals affects human health in the deepest sense.

Dangerous Acquaintance (translation Documentary)

(us)robin Warshaw

The best predictor of the level of violence in a country is the level of violence and threats against women in that country. Dangerous Acquaintances is the first-ever representative national survey of sexual violence in the United States. Based on a survey of American college campuses, this book reveals a shocking fact: 25% of women have experienced rape or attempted rape, and more than 80% of them know the attacker. While the victimized women bravely came forward to tell the truth, staged protests and filed lawsuits, the parents of the boys involved also established some organizations, fearing that their sons would be falsely accused and even counter-sued the school. The author's investigation found that it was American culture that made rape possible. Many boys spend their teenage years being constantly flirted with by friends and older men, while many girls are told to save their first time with the right person. The writing of this book stems from the first large-scale rape study in the United States conducted by Ms. Magazine in the late 1980s. Sadly, 30 years later, statistics on acquaintance rape show that the phenomenon has not diminished. "Dangerous Acquaintances" presents numerous case studies on and off campus to help people understand rape as a cultural phenomenon and attempts to provide women and men with strategies to address the rape epidemic. The ultimate goal of exposing the prevalence of rape and sexual assault in American society to everyone's eyes is to make people think: the root of oppression lies in forgetting. Maybe we should remember: history repeats itself.
