«每個人的故事都有它的意義——透過挖掘劉宰的生命故事，探索南宋士人的崇高使命感 «不再侷限皇帝達官顯要的歷史——重新建構南宋基層社會樣貌 ◎「與士大夫共治天下」不是說說而已——致仕歸鄉仍有志於社會 劉宰是何許人也？劉宰並非南宋重臣名宦，身分僅為地方士人官僚，他在官途順遂且尚處壯年之時，毅然辭官返鄉。由於他過往擔任地方基層官的種種經驗，加之家鄉鎮江府金壇縣位處南宋與金的邊境，是當時南宋政局動盪的首衝之地，於是他選擇「退而不休」，不只積極號召、凝聚鄉親人力，更多次推動大型社會公益活動。 ◎小人物立大功——誰說只有權有勢的官宦才能影響政局及社會 縱然劉宰不似同時代的史彌遠、韓侂冑等人威名赫赫，劉宰雖已脫離官場，他仍時常與當權者通信，並且依據自己在地方地所聞所見，提供政策解決方案，同時對時局提出建言。他作為政府官方與地方士人的中介，促使南宋地方政府與基層社會緊密連結，展現南宋時代的獨特士人社會力。 作者結合地理環境和時代政局的變動，描繪劉宰一生所關注、推動以及與時代環境緊密連結的家國事業，藉由認識劉宰他的人格特質以及他所代表的南宋時代的士人社會力微觀研究出發，剖析環境與資源對區域的發展影響，建構出更完整的南宋社會樣貌，試圖從與過往不同的視角理解南宋在中國歷史轉型期的關鍵地位。 Huang Kuanchung is a social historian, political historian, cultural historian, and intellectual historian all at once.

"I recommend to every Architect, designer and those who have a passion for New York to own this magnificent book…there is no better on the extraordinary Beaux Arts of New York." —Lemeau, Decorator's Insider"This great, beautiful, glossy, polychromatic slab of a book more than does justice to an epic period in architecture when some of the world’s most luscious buildings were designed for some of the most unpleasant people in American history." — Timothy Brittain-Catlin, World of Interiors"New York would be little more than another faceless glass-and-steel city were it not for its Gilded Age buildings and institutions... An American Renaissance: Beaux-Arts Architecture in New York City, written by Phillip James Dodd with photography by Jonathan Wallen, is a gilded embrace of this legacy."— The Critic?The Gilded Age, also referred to as the American Renaissance, is an era associated with unparalleled growth, technological advancement, prosperity, and cultural change.

In a society of lemmings, can a bear ever belong?The Society of Distinguished Lemmings aims to be distinguished in absolutely everything. It takes an awful lot of rules to be so distinguished, including: no rolling around, no climbing about, and certainly no splashing in the mud! But Bertie has had quite enough of the society and all its rules. After venturing outside, Bertie discovers a bear, who is very unlike a lemming. With the bear's help, Bertie learns that prancing about in the wild is quite a lot of fun! But when the other lemmings find out about the bear, they decide everything about him will have to change if he's ever to fit in. Will the Society ever accept Bertie's new friend, or is the bear simply too big and clumsy of a creature to be distinguished?This hilarious tale features valuable themes of finding new friends, challenging peers, and questioning the rules. Readers will return to the story again and again to discover the quirks of every distinguished lemming while als
