本書在自然與身體感受性的脈絡下，思考禮儀中的象徵在修身及教化中所扮演的關鍵地位。本書溯源到文化源頭的先秦、兩漢時期，說明自然節氣如何影響身體經驗，在對天道的體察中，從而形構物的象徵與身體隱喻。本書透過秦漢禮儀中象徵的細部分析，說明象徵符號與自我的形構、身心轉化，人我關係定義以及倫理的秩序有密不可分的關係。「象徵」既反映著自然風土與物之質性，同時也反映著不同的地方文化所形成的文化心理及身體經驗。修身與教化的理想在體察自然節氣和風土、透過象徵以調節人情中亦得到實踐。This book investigates the key role of symbolism in self-cultivation and moral education in the context of nature and bodily senses. Through detailed analysis of symbols in the etiquette of Qin and Han China, this book illustrates the inseparable relationship between symbolism and self-construction, transformation of body and mind, the definition of human-self relationship, and the order of ethics. “Symbol” not only reflects the landscapes and things, but also reflects the cultural psychology and physical experience formed by different local knowledge. The practice of self-cultivation and morality is also in the process of interpreting nature and regulating human sentiments through symbols.

近半世紀來，拜造船科技的日益精進，使得船舶的性能與噸位不斷創新突破，而COVID-19疫情造成的供應鏈斷鏈，更讓海運業創造了前所未有的榮景。聯合國貿易和發展會議多年來皆估計全球貿易量的80％，以及貿易總價值的70％是經由海上運輸完成的。因此維持海運業的運作順暢與安全發展一直都是全球各大強權與沿海國的基本共識。然遺憾的是，科技的發展並未讓海上事故發生率相對減少。回顧自1960年代貨櫃船問世以來就一直穩定成長，而當前最盛行的趨勢，就是全世界各大航商唯恐落人後的競相訂造超大型貨櫃船投入市場營運。也因為海運業者忠實奉行貨櫃船「規模經濟（Economies of scale）」愈大愈好的論點，連帶的造成港口、物流鏈、交通管理，以及人才培育配套不足，甚至跟不上發展趨勢的潛在性風險與衝擊。因此，除了海上交通密度變高外，新一代船舶不僅船型變大變寬、船速變快，前者會嚴重阻礙駕駛員視野；後者會限縮駕駛員因應緊急事故的時間。因而操船者必須調整船舶操縱方式與思維，並備妥完善的備套設施，否則將有處理不完的海事。筆者特蒐集多起在關鍵水域（Critical area）發生的海事案例，進而依據事故後調查的相關資訊探討解析事故肇因，於各案例解析中提供心得分享，期我海上同仁引以為鑑，並提升我航海同行的職場警戒，期以達致防範事故於未然之效。

我在你的話語中讀出它從你手勢的歷史習得它你溫暖而明智的雙手合攏塑造並界劃出輪廓漸成的形狀──里爾克《時禱書》1840年11月12日，羅丹生於法國巴黎，父親是警官，母親是裁縫。近視的他在校表現不佳，被父親送往培養建築裝飾工匠的「小美院」，可望在奧斯曼大改造下的巴黎成為一位商業雕刻師。然而，在小美院中展露天分的羅丹始終考不進培養「真正的藝術家」的「大美院」。憤恨之餘，他一邊當石膏匠賺錢，一邊自修，找尋自己認同的藝術使命。他設法以微薄的收入持續創作雕塑。不過長達十年的歲月裡，主流的巴黎沙龍從未接受他的作品，直到《青銅時代》問世。在羅丹即將嶄露頭角之際，1875年12月4日，小他三十五歲的里爾克出生於奧匈帝國治下的布拉格，母親出身富裕家庭，父親是平凡的火車站長。父母將他送進軍校，期望他出人頭地，然而氣質陰柔的他在軍校中屢受欺凌，只有文學和寫詩是他心靈的寄託，也成為他唯一的志願。可是里爾克一直不知道該如何成為一個藝術家。他認為男孩必須先成為男人，才能成為藝術家，他一直渴望轉變，但不知該如何做。他來到沃普斯韋德村，一個拒斥學院傳統的藝術家聚落，在那裡遇見羅丹的學生、雕塑家克拉拉．維絲陀芙（Clara Westhoff），兩人相戀結婚。但是才剛成為父親，他便想要逃離。他的逃離帶他來到羅丹身旁，來到剛踏入新世紀的巴黎，時為1902年8月。「我來找你，不只是為了寫一篇專題研究，而是為了要問你：我該如何生活？」這次短暫的貼身採訪中，擺盪不安的里爾克為羅丹工作室中俯拾皆是的生命力與他觀察自然的方法所震撼，他相信羅丹也擁有改變他生命的力量。當年逾六旬的雕塑家告訴年輕詩人他的座右銘：「你必須工作，不斷地工作。」（Travailler, toujourstravailler）他彷彿找到了生命的方向，從此奉為信條。三年後，里爾克成為羅丹的祕書，備感榮幸的他住進雕塑家在巴黎市郊的家，與之朝夕相處。他亦步亦趨地跟隨著羅丹，在他的目光中找到自己的定位。其間，他在龐大的工作壓力下完成了著名的《時禱書》（The Book of Hours），逐漸受到文壇重視。然而才過了九個月，頑固的羅丹在一次盛怒中當場開除里爾克。三十一歲的詩人彷彿被精神上的父親趕出家門，展開在歐洲各地漂流的浪子之旅。在決裂的苦悶、情感生活的疏離與摰友離世的打擊中，里爾克依然堅持羅丹所言：「工作，不斷的工作。」他試圖透過「共感」（empa
