The church is in urgent need of funds for rescue operations and looks forward to the generosity of believers. Rumors spread quietly among the people, some were frightened, some were suspicious, and some believed. Three brothers-in-law with different personalities-a scientist who converted to Catholicism, a writer with limited talent, and a timid businessman-were involved in this fraud case one after another.

The spirit of exploration leads globalization and completely changes the historical trajectory of mankind. In 1519, Magellan led five sailing ships and more than 260 people to set sail from Spain in search of a sea route to the Spice Islands. Their adventures take them from participating in Brazil's grand carnival to experiencing the shocking and bizarre customs of the South Pacific. On the way, Magellan was so ambitious that he did not hesitate to use torture and murder to control the people on board, and also launched several fierce mutinies in the fleet. During the voyage, the fleet members suffered from hunger and disease, and many died. Magellan was not spared either. He was violently killed in a tribal conflict in the Philippines, and his body was missing. Three years later, a ship full of desolation, pain, and weathered weather returned to Spain carrying 18 emaciated crew members. This was a rebellion and murder that spanned the globe, as well as a tragic victory. "Magellan and the Age of Discovery" truly reproduces the complete process of mankind's first voyage around the world. It is a story about the exploration of the entire earth. It refreshed the Western world's understanding of cosmology and geography, subversively changed the way explorers sailed in the ocean, promoted global economic, trade, and cultural exchanges, and expanded the Maritime Silk Road. The Age of Discovery did not have the beauty and romance imagined by later generations. There was indeed wealth and dreams there, but it was also accompanied by rough seas and endless killing. Compared with that era, human exploration of the world has now extended from land and ocean to space. Aerospace engineering, undersea exploration, and geocentric exploration, the next "Great Age of Navigation" is coming.

The author of this book, Lawrence Berglin, carefully studied the hundreds of existing versions of Marco Polo's biography, consulted first-hand historical materials in 6 languages, and personally traced and vividly reproduced Marco Polo's great adventure on the Silk Road, trying to answer people's long-standing questions about Marco Polo and his legendary journey. "Ocean Conquerors and New Sea Routes: Columbus's Four Voyages" The era of maritime civilization has emerged, and the prelude to globalization has slowly begun. Christopher Columbus's voyage across the Atlantic to the Americas and his safe return in 1492 in search of a trade route to the East was a watershed event in world history. It directly promoted world integration. The European trade center moved from the Mediterranean coast to the Atlantic coast, and the world market gradually formed. Ocean voyages and conquests brought wealth and glory, but also concealed terror and murderous intent. Columbus's voyage to discover the American continent established a connection between the New World and the Old World, which greatly promoted the development of capitalism. With the rise of Western maritime civilization, globalization began to slowly unfold, and the politics, economy, and culture of the entire world began to undergo earth-shaking changes. The exploration spirit of "Magellan and the Age of Discovery" leads globalization and completely changes the historical trajectory of mankind. It truly reproduces the complete journey of mankind's first voyage around the world. This is a story about the exploration of the entire earth. It refreshed the Western world's understanding of cosmology and geography, subversively changed the way explorers sailed in the ocean, promoted global economic, trade, and cultural exchanges, and expanded the Maritime Silk Road.

If "The Book of Songs: The Quiet Girl" is used to describe the passionate love feelings of the couple Darcy and Elizabeth (Litz) in the novel "Pride and Prejudice" at that time and place, except for changing "the corner" to Pemberley Manor, the rest of the description is generally appropriate.

After repenting, she realized that she was deeply in love with Darcy, but she could not express her love for him. Two young hearts met, followed each other, and even accompanied each other countless times, but they never collided. The two hearts are looming, sometimes far and sometimes close. To say close, neighbors are just one step away. To say it's far away, it's so close to the end of the world, just like a passerby. Therefore, whether Darcy was anxious or scratching his head, it was all in silence.

She originally wanted to get rid of her parents' control and live with her lover after graduation, but Leonard's illness made it impossible for her to refuse her parents' help.

"Nature is as obedient to what it is engaged in as the hands of a dyer." Auden, one of the greatest writers of the 20th century, has newly included a 10,000-word postscript from the famous collection of essays by translator Hu Sang. "The Dyer's Hand" collects the splendid prose works of W. H. Auden, a generation of literary giants, including his famous lectures as professor of poetry at Oxford University. The articles in the book cover a wide range of topics but are related to each other. They all put forward their own views on poetry, art, and various situations in life.

A classic among classics of World War II novels, a masterpiece that removes the last fig leaf of war, the Iron Curtain, and human nature. The Naked and the Dead is considered to be the greatest of all novels about World War II (and some even think of all novels about war). Mailer was only 25 years old when he wrote this work, making him one of the most classic American writers of the 20th century. The novel is set on Anopope Island, a fictional tropical island in the South Pacific during World War II. It tells a panoramic story of how the U. S. Military, under General Cummings's strategic planning, broke through the Japanese defense lines and completely captured the island. The novel focuses on describing how a group of soldiers from the reconnaissance platoon, who came from grass-roots backgrounds and were almost social outcasts, succumbed to the iron curtain of the army. When they were ordered to complete a reconnaissance mission behind enemy lines that was difficult and dangerous, with little hope, the most instinctive and naked side of human nature was exposed. The novel also creates an opposing camp represented by two middle-class officers, Major General Cummings and Second Lieutenant Horn, and explains the laws and nature of war and the development of human society. The work also uses a special narrative technique to give a biographical appearance to each character in the book, thus forming a wonderful and real microcosm of American society, making this work beyond the scope of ordinary war novels. The work uses a Tolstoyan-style sympathetic approach without losing its seriousness. Through this group of losers on the battlefield of life who won the battle to attack the island, the work ponders whether the morbid and degenerate society has reached the point of despair? Can power theorists manipulate the course of historical development at will?

The human body is grief. It is filled with depressions, soft places, and easily injured places. Arms, armpits, chest, between thighs. This body was born to embrace people and to be embraced by others. Don't you think it's weird sometimes? Our bodies have eyelids and lips. They are occasionally closed from the outside and can also be locked tightly from the inside. Without any reason or warning, a woman becomes speechless. The first time was in the winter when she was 17 years old. She felt that the sentences emitted from her tongue and hands were tied up like white spider webs, and she was very ashamed. She could hear and read every word clearly, but she couldn't open her mouth to make a sound. What made her speechless lips tremble again was a strange foreign language-a French word. Her mother passed away half a year ago and she got divorced a few years ago. After three lawsuits, the woman finally lost the custody of her nine-year-old son. After sending the child away, she suffered from insomnia. The unbearable weight of the crystallization of words was placed in the middle of her beating heart like cold explosives.

The psychiatrist who was over fifty years old judged that she was temporarily aphasic due to the stimulation of recent life circumstances, but she just wrote "No, it's not that simple..."
