The title comes from Schiller's classic distinction between two different literary styles: "naive" and "sentimental."

"In Search of Lost Time" is an epoch-making masterpiece and one of the most important novels in the literary world of the 20th century. Proust used fresh and smart writing to recreate the good times that have passed away with the help of a subconscious consciousness that transcends time and space. In the first volume, "Over Swann's House", the protagonist starts from his random thoughts before going to bed and writes about the complex psychological activities he performed as a child in order to wait for his mother's kiss. Also, starting from the taste of the Petit Madeleine cake, I recall the distant past through the sense of taste and evoke some involuntary memories. Then I wrote about Uncle Swann who came to his home as a guest, and turned to the third person narrative to tell the story of Swann's love experience.

"Hand over each other's darkest secrets so that we can never be separated." The final chapter of the family trilogy of Italian national writer Domenico Starnone. Pietro and Teresa's love life was full of swords and swords. After another argument, she had an idea: Tell me your darkest secrets and I'll do the same. Then we will be together forever. Of course, they broke up soon after. But the end of one relationship is often the beginning of the next, and when Pietro met Nadia, he immediately fell in love with her passivity and softness. However, a few days before the wedding, Teresa magically reappears. Along with her came the shadow of their mutual confession, which was almost a warning. From that moment on, the "confession" they exchanged will always be a threat: all good deeds in Pietro's life will be based on this dark secret. More importantly, Teresa always appeared on time at every crossroads in his life. Or was he always looking for her? With a gaze that is both complicit and distant, and with the aching lightness that only great narratives possess, "Confessions" depicts a man torn between himself and his ambitions. But it's really about each of us: how dangerous the foundations on which we build our identities are.

This book contains twenty-one literary and artistic theoretical articles by Russian writer Leo Tolstoy. These include comments on his creation of "Childhood" and "War and Peace", as well as discussion articles on the creations of Maurossin, Gogol, Chekhov, Shakespeare and others. The evolution of Tolstoy's worldview and the evolution of his literary outlook go hand in hand. In the late 1850s, the "Speech at the Russian Literary Love Society" opposed exposure to literature, and in the 1960s and 1970s, the essays required writing for the people. Literary essays in the 1980s and 1990s emphasized that writers should clarify "the difference between good and evil" in the things they described, criticizing the view of "art for art's sake".

An organization called "Blue Lion" called the Prime Minister's official residence, saying that it had "kidnapped" all Japanese citizens and demanded a ransom of 500 billion yen, otherwise it would "revoke" indiscriminately.
