2023年，香港中文大學迎來六十周年校慶。值此重要時刻，當反思大學使命—「結合傳統與現代，融會中國與西方」的歷史意蘊與時代價值。大學圖書館藉此難得機會，舉辦紀念展覽，展示館藏中日益豐富的西方漢學珍本。 本圖錄記錄了展出的藏書，並一一簡述概況，涵蓋從十五至十九世紀中葉的書籍、地圖和手稿。珍藏之中不乏最優秀的早期漢學著作。其中許多作品均由利瑪竇、湯若望等知名耶穌會教士撰寫，他們縱然人數不多，但在深入接觸近代早期中國社會與文化的過程中，一手創立了近代漢學，留下了近距離觀察中國的珍貴記錄。隨著這些傳教士的著作傳回歐洲，關於中國的歐洲書籍愈加準確詳細，歐洲人對中國的了解也與日俱增。本圖錄透過豐富的圖像，以及細緻的介紹和描述，呈現出一幅生動的早期歷史圖景，展現西方對中國持久而深入的興趣和理解，以及中西淵源的交疊與關聯。透過本圖錄，讀者亦可藉此思索如何更好地「結合傳統與現代，融會中國與西方」。 In 2023, The Chinese University of Hong Kong celebrates the sixtieth anniversary of its foundation.

During the early stages of its development, Taiwan’s New Literature was intimately connected with realism.The year 2022 is the one-hundredth anniversary of fiction writing in Taiwan, and also the one-hundredth anniversary of modernist literature in the English-speaking world. For the former, this is the one-hundredth anniversary of the publication of Chui Feng’s “Where Will She Go?” For the latter, it is the one-hundredth anniversary of the publication of James Joyce’s (1882–1941) novel Ulysses, and Anglo-American writer T. S. Eliot’s (1888–1965) poem The Waste Land. When the Alphabet Lab was first established, it also paid tribute to the contribution of modernism in the development of post-war Taiwan literature. In this special fiftieth issue on “Taiwan Fiction and ‘Realism,’” we once again identify and trace out the pathways and objectives of Taiwan’s writer apostles over the past one-hundred years.台灣新文學的發展，以追風的〈她要往何處去〉為濫觴，發表於1922年，至今剛好一百年。台灣新文學發軔時，歐美現代主義發展已達到高峰，台灣必然受到影響，可見現代主義與現實主義，

From the No.1 International Bestselling author of The Atlas SixCHICAGO, SOMETIME. Two people meet in the armory of the Art Institute by chance. Prior to their encounter, he is a doctoral student who manages his destructive thoughts with compulsive calculations about time travel; she is a bipolar counterfeit artist undergoing court-ordered psychotherapy. After their meeting, those things do not change.Everything else, however, is slightly different.Both obsessive, eccentric personalities, Aldo Damiani and Charlotte Regan struggle to be without each other from the moment they meet. The truth - that he is a clinically depressed, anti-social theoretician and she is a manipulative liar with a history of self-sabotage - means the deeper they fall in love, the more troubling their reliance on each other becomes.ALONE WITH YOU IN THE ETHER is a glimpse into the nature of love, what it means to be unwell, and how to face the fractures of yourself and still love as if you're not broken.Reader re

封面人物 蔡恩雨 音樂主播台 流行天團聯手古典巨星 ～～從BLACKPINK聽見帕格尼尼和李斯特～～ 流行樂壇每隔一陣子，就會出現致敬/引用古典音樂的例子，最近輪到了韓國女子天團BLACKPINK！今年推出的新專輯單曲〈Shut Down〉，強烈的節奏伴隨著小提琴高亢堅定的旋律，貫穿整首歌曲，非常洗腦之餘，你是不是也覺得似曾相識？配得上女子天團BLACKPINK的，當然也不是省油的燈，歌曲〈Shut Down〉的主旋律正是取材自古典名曲--帕格尼尼的第二號小提琴協奏曲--第三樂章！ 東洋動漫館 〈Daylight〉 ～～電視動畫《平凡職業造就世界最強》主題曲～～ 本次介紹的歌曲《Daylight》是電視動畫《平凡職業造就世界最強》第二季的的片頭主題曲。如果你也聽過本作第一季的主題曲《Flare》，不難發現這兩曲都是快歌（這在魔幻類的日本動漫歌曲相當常見），而且都是英文歌曲。然而筆者挑選《Daylight》作為本期的介紹曲目，除了它是今年才推出的新曲這個原因外，還有另一個理由，就是兩首歌的曲調相較起來，《Daylight》更富於旋律性得多。用容易明白的話說，一般強調快歌屬性的歌曲，有的旋律可能會更接近嘻哈歌曲般的唸誦性質，不然就是旋律性並不夠優美，沒有歌調的性質，並不是說寫歌的人比較不會寫旋律，而是因為這樣的歌曲強調的是它較節奏面向的特質，像《Flare》就是個很好的例子。而也有些快歌，聽起來會比較像抒情歌曲的加快版本，像《Daylight》就是。也就是說，如果將《Daylight》的旋律改編成較慢板的抒情曲，會有還不錯的效果，但相同的手法如果用在《Flare》身上，會比較彆扭，效果大概沒那麼好。 專題報導 作曲不用等靈感 ～～作曲手法解析 Part.1～～ 你還在坐等靈光乍現、天降靈感嗎？ 快試試這次馨嬅老師所提供的方法，保證文思泉湧，音樂繆思馬上就來找你囉！ ◎流行鋼琴雙月刊雜誌 ◎一網打盡港台日韓最in的哈燒金曲 ◎獨家推出忠於原味的鋼琴獨奏＋伴奏完整套譜 ◎揭露鍵盤編曲必殺技 ◎橫跨古典與流行，揉合東西方音樂元素

本書選取兩份17世紀後半，描繪荷蘭統治台灣樣貌的荷蘭語古文獻，以中英文雙語翻譯，並蒐錄原史料全文。〈費爾堡長官報告〉由1649–1653 年間擔任大員長官的尼可拉斯‧費爾堡（Nicolaes Verburch）書寫，以殖民當局的角度出發，描寫荷蘭治下原住民、教會工作、殖民政府運作等情形。另一份史料〈東印度對談〉於1665 年以小冊子形式出版，從基層人物的觀點以文學筆調譏諷殖民地社會奇特現狀，乃是荷蘭東印度公司的對外宣傳品。兩份史料中對東印度公司、費爾堡治理台灣持截然不同的立場，讀者當能藉此書概覽荷蘭人統治台灣之大要，採取多方比較而求其實況，不失於單一觀點。This work includes two selects documents, with translation, concerning the Dutch rule overTaiwan(Formosa) in the last half of the 17th century.
