東方詩哲紀伯倫——以詩與寓言交織出靈魂最深的低語。他的作品闡述愛、生命、自由、靈性、自然以及人類處境等普世主題。這是一本讓人願意「一生重讀」的作品，每天一篇紀伯倫，讀懂人生的悲傷與祝福。紀伯倫（Kahlil Gibran）是黎巴嫩裔的美籍詩人、哲學家與藝術家，公認為阿拉伯現代文學的巨擘，也被譽為旅美文學的旗手與靈魂人物。他在文學與繪畫領域皆有卓越成就，尤其以融合東西方思想、靈性與詩意的文字風格聞名於世，開創了獨具一格的「紀伯倫風格」。他的作品情感濃烈、意蘊深邃，文字灑脫自然，富有節奏感與音樂性，讀來朗朗上口、餘韻悠長。在東方文學史上，紀伯倫的創作兼具理性與感性，不僅蘊含哲理性的冷峻與嚴肅，也展現出詠嘆式的浪漫與抒情。他善於在看似平易的語句中揭示深刻的生命智慧，並以妙喻啟發人心，在詩歌、散文與小說創作上皆自成一格，不落俗套。本書收錄紀伯倫的四部經典作品——《沙與沫》（Sand and Foam, 1926）風格極簡卻富有哲理，《暴風集》（The Storm, 1920）探討人性的光明與黑暗，批判社會的舊習陋俗；《瘋子》（The Madman, 1918）透過「瘋子」這個角色批判社會偽善與宗教僵化，《流浪者》（The Wanderer, 1932）蘊含哲學與靈性意義，值得品味。每部皆展現其獨特的風格與思想面貌，既是他藝術創作的縮影，也為現代讀者開啟一扇探索心靈與人生的窗口。若你曾經懷疑信仰、困惑人生，或想更誠實面對自己，這本書將是你的同行者。它不解釋萬物，但讓你渴望理解自己。在這充滿噪音的世界裡，它是一座寂靜高峰，給你時間與空間重新定義「活著」的重量。★導讀推薦中央研究院歐美研究所兼任研究員----單德興★共感推薦 （依來函順序刊登）․國立政治大學阿拉伯語文學系退休教授----鄭慧慈․國立臺北藝術大學藝術跨域所教授----楊凱麟․知名作家----彭樹君

美國著名女性都市計劃學者Jane Jacobs在她的世紀經典名著「The Death and Life of Great American Cities」（1961）裡曾經說過：「無趣、沒有活力的城市， 事實是因為自身埋藏了走向毀滅的種子。……而活力、多樣、緊湊的城市，具備了處理問題的充足能力，因此保有不斷再生的種子。」Charles Landry在其經典之作 「The Creative City: A Toolkit for Urban Innovators」（2000, 2008）一書中，特別提到「21世紀將是城市世紀，『創意城市』成為一種行動的號召。……『創意』就是當今城市的命脈，應該將城市的觀察焦點放在『人』的身上。」在創意城市理論中，Richard Florida（2002）提出「創意階級」與「3T」理論，主張美國城市應該制訂足以吸引「創意階級」前來的政策才行，堪稱是先驅者，但其理論在「地方經濟的發展」上仍有不足。Florida為了彌補先前理論的不足，分別於2005年發表一篇名為「The world is spiky」的論文，以及2008年出版專書「Who’s Your City? How the Creative Economy is Making Where to Live the Most Important Decision of Your Life」，進一步主張「尖峰都市」（Spiky City）與「地點」（Place）對當今每個人生活的重要性，而其重要性是來自於「創意經濟」，Florida自此即可將他的「創意理論」與「城市地方經濟」彼此關聯起來。他的研究結果顯示：「世界是平的」此一神話並非事實，全球多元化與分殊化造成城市經濟結構已大不同，選擇居住地點也決定了人們的「幸福」。個性開放者群聚是區域創新及經濟成長的驅動因素。「開放」與兩個特別的因素有關：一是「美感」，二是「好奇心」。區域創意及創新與多元化、活力以及開放有關，但與社會資本無關。然而，正當全世界關注並熱愛「創意城市理論」之際，Thomas Hutton在他的2016年新書「Cities and the Cultural Economy」中特別提到：文創經濟在城市中可能造成的不公平現象，並且預先告訴文創經濟研究者與政策制定者，必須設想有效方案。Florida也於2017年出版一本新書：「T

Playful, interactive, and full of whimsy, Sean Taylor's collection of poems invites little ones to get their fingers, hands, and wiggles ready. One little friendin the playground . . . sliding.Two little friends playing chase and . . . hiding.What better way to get little ones excited about poems than to make them part of the delivery? In the hallowed tradition of nursery rhymes and songs like "Itsy Bitsy Spider," this imaginative collection entices children to use their fingers, hands, and sometimes whole bodies to bring a variety of verses to life. Whether the subject is sailing ships or stomping dinosaurs, falling snow or popping bubbles, jumping onto waterslides or riding a crowded elevator, Sean Taylor's rhythmic read-aloud verses pair with Fiona Woodcock's fresh, colorful illustrations, offering clues to the finger actions kids can follow--unless they're happily acting things out already, using shapes and movements all their own.
