In the approximately 300 years since 1718, Greece has built a modern nation-state on the ruins of a vanished civilization. After Roderick Beaton tells the story of the birth of the Greek nation-state at the beginning, he directly introduces the plot of the story into modern times and analyzes the grudges and resentments between Greece and other EU member states after the economic crisis.

Beaton sees modern Greece as a living entity, a living entity, encouraging us to re-examine a people and history whose glorious past we have so long commemorated. The country and its people were struggling to build their future as part of the modern West. As an important country that affects the situation in Europe and a great country in the history of world civilization, Greece, between the East and the West, has too many mysteries, which this book will reveal one by one.

"Secret" is a classic collection of novels by Junichiro Tanizaki, a representative writer of Japanese aestheticism, including "Swastika", "Secret", "A Certain Motive for Crime" and other short and medium-sized novels. The novella "" uses the criss-cross meaning of the Japanese character "" to symbolize the intricate emotional relationship between two men and two women in the novel; the short stories "Secret" and "Some Motive for Crime" both have elements and colors of suspense reasoning. The former tells the story of "I" living in seclusion in a temple and the failure of pursuing "another world", while the latter is the psychological confession of a prisoner. The world of Tanizaki's novels is full of absurdity and weirdness, seeking beauty in ugliness, affirming goodness in praise, and thinking about the meaning of survival in death. The three novels all reflect Junichiro Tanizaki's aesthetic concepts very well and are permeated with his strong awareness of human emotions and psychology. Whether it is the Miyuki world that expresses demonism and "ugliness is beautiful", or the oriental culture that pursues Japanese classical beauty, Junichiro Tanizaki's works are permeated with a strong sense of human emotions and psychology. Yukio Mishima once evaluated Tanizaki Junichiro's works as "the peonies blooming brilliantly against the gloomy background of naturalistic literature".
