On June 6, 1982, war broke out on the Lebanese border, and Israeli troops invaded southern Lebanon in three groups. Late that night in Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, the poet Khalil Harvey walked to the balcony of his home with a shotgun in his hand, facing the sea and the school bell tower, aimed it at his head and pulled the trigger. His body fell over the railing and fell to a cluster of jasmine flowers downstairs. Eight days later, Israeli troops approached Beirut. The final straw for Harvey was not only the shame of the country's defeat, but also the despair of the entire Arab nation's revival. For more than half a century, countless Arabs, including Harvey, have envisioned a dream palace of unity, progress, and modernity for their world. However, the quarrel between traditionalists and reformists, the confrontation between secularism and theocracy, local hatred of the West, and increasingly narrow nationalism eventually exhausted the hope in the hearts of Arabs. In this book, Lebanese scholar Fouad Ajami reviews Arab history since the 20th century from the perspective of politics, culture, and literature through a pair of eyes from inside the Arab world. He follows the life and thinking paths of Arab intellectuals such as Harvey, Adonis, Mahfouz, and Munif, from the mountains of Lebanon to Egypt to the Arabian Peninsula, telling the story of the revitalization and suffering that this great and tenacious nation has experienced over the past few decades, trying to answer a question that has been pondered for nearly a hundred years: Where is the path to modernization in the Arab world?

Yoshihiko Amino was one of the most original historians in Japan in the 20th century, and he single-handedly created a new situation in the study of Japanese medieval history. In this book, he shows the changes in Japan's country and society before modern times from many aspects such as the popularization of writing, currency circulation, class and discrimination, women's social status, the origin of the emperor and Japan's national title, and the differences in culture and life in different regions. He breaks the existing common sense and rethinks and interprets Japanese history. In his writings, medieval Japan was not an isolated island country, and its residents were not just farmers who worked on the land. Nor were they just warriors with strong armor, nobles vying for power, and emperors of the eternal line. In sharp contrast is the dynamic Japanese history driven by trade, circulation and competition. A large number of non-agricultural populations are active on these stages: mountain people and sea people who live on mountains, rivers and seas, various craftsmen who form guilds, various sects of New Buddhism that are deeply involved in social changes, women who enjoy a certain degree of freedom and actively participate in social activities, and fully participate in social activities. Merchants who make use of the land and sea transportation network, geishas, beggars, and witches who run around begging for a living, various "non-humans" with "filth" on their hands, lords and bureaucrats who work hard to run estates and territories... Together with the farmers, they constantly adapt and transform the environment in order to survive and develop, and create an economy, politics, society and culture with their own characteristics.

The articles included in this book are divided into five parts. The first part is related to the "Era Division Theory"; the second part selects daily "customs"; the third part focuses on the dramatic changes in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, discussing issues of national consciousness and order; the fourth part is a legal history essay related to ownership and trial; the fifth part is a methodological article centered on the study of Chinese history in Japan. These articles may seem scattered, but from the perspective of the author's academic life, they are like branches and leaves growing on a tree trunk, with the same root and concern flowing through them: to understand the social phenomena of the Ming and Qing dynasties based on the thinking of people at that time, and to place the changes in these social phenomena from a broad perspective and grasp them from the perspective of comparative history.

On August 24, 1572, Saint Bartholomew's Day, with the connivance of King Charles IX of France, the Protestant military leader Coligny was killed by soldiers of the Catholic Duke Henry I of Guise. Soon, Catholics wearing hats with crosses on their heads and white armbands on their arms were walking through the streets of Paris, hunting down "heresy" in the name of God. The executions quickly turned into mass killings. However, just a few days ago, the city of Paris was still joyful and peaceful, and a grand wedding symbolizing reconciliation had just been held at Notre Dame Cathedral. The bride was Margaret, sister of Charles IX, and the groom was Henry of Navarre, a Protestant, the future Henry IV. In just a few days, why did a wedding sincerely seeking peace turn into a "bloody wedding"? Why did the execution of a handful of Protestant leaders turn into a massacre that spread almost across France, and how did it stir up the international situation? In a series of events, what roles did Charles IX, the Medici Queen Mother, Catholic dignitaries, and the King of Spain play? French historian Alet Jouenne analyzes the circumstances surrounding the sudden occurrence of executions and massacres, examines the reactions of Protestants and Catholics at home and abroad at the time, and retells the story of the Massacre of St. Bartholomew. In her opinion, this bloody day changed the direction of French history: the fate of Catholicism in France completely changed; Protestants no longer believed that France would become a Protestant country and began to form an identity; people's desire for order after the turmoil and killings strengthened the monarch's authority and opened the door to absolute autocracy; reflections on religious schism and the trauma it caused also questioned the royal power and even laid the groundwork for the Great Revolution. The Massacre of St. Bartholomew is undoubtedly a tragedy. It regards others as heretics out of fear and twists differences into threats. It is far away but has never really gone away.
