Power and love are always difficult to have at the same time, but truth and death go hand in hand - in the spring of 1502, Arthur Tudor, who was only sixteen years old, died unexpectedly. The young crown prince who had the same name as the ancient British king passed away before he could realize his ideals of governing the country. The king and his wife lost their beloved son, and his young widow Catherine had to wait for the king's brother to come of age to remarry him... In the autumn of 1514, a newborn baby stopped breathing in his infancy. Queen Catherine suffered the loss of another son, and the Tudor dynasty still had not yet welcomed the expected heir. Only the last of the Plantagenets, Margaret Pole, might know why. That was a curse, derived from the power of the water goddess Melusina-those who murder the princes in the tower will also be cut off from their own escape. The book "The King's Curse" tells the story of the troubled life of Margaret Pole, a descendant of Plantagenet. Her noble birth was the reason why she was deposed by the Tudor family. She fell into abject poverty and lived in hardship for a time. After Henry VIII succeeded to the throne, she regained the favor of the royal family and her status rose. She was even later named Countess of Salisbury. Queen Catherine's inability to give birth to an heir becomes a dark cloud hanging over the Tudor royal family. Margaret remembers a secret curse passed down in the family: the descendants of anyone who murders the Plantagenet Prince in the Tower will suffer the same fate. As Henry fell out with the queen, Margaret, who sided with Catherine, once again lost the king's trust, and her fate became precarious... Readers who want to understand the history of the Tudor Dynasty can feel the intensity of the various struggles surrounding the throne of England at that time from the book.

Why did Jane Boline, who once narrowly escaped death, go to great lengths to return to the court that had swallowed up her husband and his sister? And can Anne's cousin, Catherine Howard, who is only fourteen years old, recreate the glory of the Boleyn family? The legacy of the Boleyns is power, wealth, and the seed of tragedy... The protagonists of "The Legacy of the Boleyns" are three court women - Anne of Cleves, Henry VIII's fourth queen, Catherine Howard, the fifth queen, and Jane Boleyn, the sister of the second queen. These three women, who had a very close relationship with Hengba in his later years, were at the center of the Tudor political storm: The shadow of Henry's bad habit of "killing his wife" has always shrouded Anne. During this unhappy marriage, she also personally experienced this capricious monarch's pursuit of power and desire; Catherine had witnessed the tragedy of the queen's cousin, but she still had to fly into the flame to pursue everything she didn't deserve; while Jane, on the surface, was friendly with all the queens, but actually had an ulterior dark side...

"Aspects of the Novel" is a series of lectures given by Forster in Cambridge in 1927. It was widely praised in the history of literature and had an important influence on later literary creation and literary criticism. This book is characterized by a clear, comprehensive and easy-to-read structure. The author uses his own writing as a starting point and conducts in-depth analysis against famous works in literary history, including some sharp comments on writers such as Fitzgerald and Henry James. In this series of lectures, Forster talked about the relationship between novels and reality, proposing the view that novels are both larger than reality and smaller than reality; he proposed the views of "flat characters" and "round characters", which became terms often used by later critics; he proposed that "the function of the novelist is to reveal the hidden life from its roots". The discussion of narrative angles and artistic expressions such as patterns and rhythms is particularly pioneering and inspiring.

The beauty of Japan is popular all over the world, and Yasu Kawabata is indispensable for its success. He regards beauty as his "belief" and uses beautiful words to expand the realm of aesthetics.

Mr. Chen Dewen, a famous translator and scholar, has studied Kawabata Yasunari for decades, carefully sorted out, integrated and translated this book, which completely and accurately presents Kawabata's aesthetic ideological system and presents the essence of Japanese oriental aesthetics in a textbook style. People with high emotional intelligence, simply put, have strong empathy. The first thing is to have a keen sense of perception and be able to distinguish between beauty and ugliness. Reading Kawabata's prose is like communicating with Kawabata Yasumimoto himself, listening directly to the gentle words of this "sensitive and beautiful oriental soul", and understanding the mystery of the beauty of Japan and the East.

Oki fell in love with a girl Neko, but it ended with the girl giving birth prematurely, dying of a baby girl, and having a mental breakdown.

Different from the simple content of the early works, "Beauty and Sorrow" expresses various clues and emotions such as first love, unethical love, same-sex love, teenage revenge, etc. It expresses deeper psychology and the deeper secrets of human nature, and reflects Kawabata's more advanced narrative skills in the late period. It is more mature, has more breadth and depth, and is more readable. It is praised by Mishima Yukio as the "methodological work" that best reflects Kawabata's writing ability.

100,000 years ago, there were at least 6 different human species on the earth, but today only 1 remains, Homo sapiens. What happened to cause the rest of the human species to disappear? What will happen to us Homo sapiens? The famous Israeli historian Yuval Harari pioneered the combination of history and science to tell the complete story of the history of Homo sapiens from the Big Bang to the present. Professor Yuval Harari believes that in the long evolutionary history of Homo sapiens from an inconspicuous animal to the ruler of the earth, three key revolutions took place: the cognitive revolution, the agricultural revolution and the scientific revolution. The cognitive revolution gave Homo sapiens the ability to create imaginary orders and fictional stories, completely surpassing other species; the agricultural revolution allowed Homo sapiens to move from a hunter-gatherer life to a settled life, with revolutionary changes in lifestyle and social organization; the scientific revolution allowed Homo sapiens to become a god-like "creator" and gain dominance over the entire earth. Professor Yuval Harari also reminded us to look forward, because in the past few decades, we have begun to violate the law of natural selection, which has been the law of life for the past 4 billion years. Today, we have not only gained the ability to design the world around us, but also gained the ability to design ourselves. Where will this lead us, and what kind of human beings do we want to be? It's time to redefine "human". "A Brief History of Mankind" is a global bestseller that abandons the old interpretive framework and proposes subversive ideas, giving us a new understanding of our own existence.

This book collects letters written by Flaubert to his lovers, friends, senior writers and disciples between 1847 and 1880. It is divided into four series: love and sex, personalization and impersonality, art first, and inner mission. The content covers many aspects such as literary creation, love, friendship, travel, artistic concepts, trends of the times, religious beliefs, etc. In Proust's words, Flaubert's letters not only reflect the author's literary and artistic concepts, but are also filled with friendship and family affection. They are an important reference for studying Flaubert. Flaubert argued that novelists should not reveal themselves in their works, just as God should not reveal himself in nature. Therefore, his letters become the key to reveal the author Flaubert hidden behind the characters in his works, and are an indispensable supplement for readers to understand Flaubert's era and works.
