★獻給巴黎「莎士比亞書店」和世界各地的書店。對某些人來說，我只是一堆磚塊和幾片門窗，但當席薇亞發現我之後，我就不僅僅是一間房子！我變成一間有魔力的書店，作家們聚集於此，他們的書也能夠找到好歸宿…媒體推薦由書店自述，述說巴黎人最愛的「莎士比亞書店」及其創始人的故事。文字充滿神奇、童話般的魔力，與插畫家的印象派風格相得益彰。──學校圖書館期刊插畫家將書籍的神奇和作家華麗登場的夜晚，幻化成一場流動的饗宴。精采的圖畫使一個具有真實歷史的故事變得生動且有趣。──柯克斯書評內容簡介很久很久以前――在巴黎的一條小街上，我沉睡了多年。然後，席薇亞來了，改變這一切，用像春天般清新的美國自由精神。她是一位熱愛生活，也熱愛詩歌的人，帶著夢想來到巴黎，並且實現了夢想。席薇亞第一次見到我的時候，這裡沒有太多東西，兩把椅子、一張桌子、滿是灰塵的老鏡子﹔角落裡有個暖爐，當冬天的烏雲把白天變成黑夜時，暖爐的爐火帶來溫暖與光亮……《席薇亞的書店》講述了賦予它生命的女主人，以及聚集在書店的人們的故事。在20世紀初，席薇亞在巴黎開設「莎士比亞書店」，很快的，這家書店成為許多知名作家和藝術家的聚會場所，他們在這裡交談、辯論和分享彼此的想法。是的，書籍不僅僅是文字，它們也包含了重要的思想。同樣的，書店不僅是書的流通場所，也承載了自由和美好的夢想！書末附有資料性的文字，介紹了「莎士比亞書店」的時空背景，以及書中登場的文學家和藝術家。關於莎士比亞書店 Shakespeare and Company1919年，席薇亞‧畢奇(Sylvia Beach)在巴黎開設了「莎士比亞書店」，很快的，成為許多當代藝文人士喜愛的聚會場所。其中最知名的文學家為《老人與海》的作者海明威，還有法國存在主義哲學家─西蒙‧波娃。而這家充滿文學氣息的書店，被稱為「全世界最美的書店」，也是巴黎人最愛的城市地標。為什麼席薇亞會以大文豪「莎士比亞」為書店命名？她提到在識字不多的時代，莎士比亞（1564～1616年）的戲劇和詩文，讓大眾認識到文字的力量，她希望「莎士比亞書店」可以是作家與愛書人相遇的地方，也是一處可以激發人們創作靈感的地方。可惜的是，席薇亞的書店在第二次世界大戰期間被迫歇業﹔她因反抗納粹思想和幫助猶太朋友逃亡，而被短暫拘捕。現在的巴黎街頭仍有一家「莎士比亞書店」，雖然與當初席薇亞的書店地點不同，但創辦人同樣熱愛書籍和文學。下次拜訪巴

What does it mean to be queer in a Confucian society in which kinship roles, ties, and ideologies are of such great importance? This book makes sense of queer cultures in China—a country with one of the largest queer populations in the world—and offers an alternative to Euro-American blueprints of queer individual identity. This book contends that kinship relations must be understood as central to any expression of queer selfhood and culture in contemporary cultural production in China. Using a critical approach—“queering Chinese kinship”—Lin Song scrutinizes the relationship between queerness and family relations, and questions Eurocentric queer culture’s frequent assumption of the separation of queerness from blood family.Offering five case studies of queer representations across a range of media genres, this book also challenges the tendency in current scholarship on Chinese and East Asian queerness to understand queer cultures as predominantly counter-mainstream, marginal, and unde

"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.

Two legal systems founded on similar Enlightenment philosophical and political values use state coercion differently to regulate a liberty at the core of the Enlightenment: freedom of expression. This comparative study of France and the United States proposes a novel theory of how the limits of freedom of expression are informed by different revolutionary experiences and constitutional and political arrangements. Ioanna Tourkochoriti argues that the different ways freedom of expression is balanced against other values in France and the United States can be understood in reference to the role of the government and the understanding of republicanism and liberty. This understanding affects how jurists define the content and the limits of a liberty and strike a balance between liberties in conflict. Exploring both the legal traditions of the two countries, this study sheds new light on the broader historical, social and philosophical contexts in which jurists operate.

Benjamin loves chocolate. He also knows a lot about it. But one person knows more - his grandfather Marco, otherwise known as the Chocolate King.Benjamin's family arrive in France at the beginning of the 17th century, having escaped the Spanish Inquisition. They have nothing but the clothes on their backs and as many cocoa beans as they can carry. Back in Spain, Benjamin's grandfather Marco was El Rey de Chocolate, famed for his delicious hot chocolate drink, a recipe he claims he learned from an intrepid Spanish explorer.But now, if the family are to make a living, they must persuade the people of France to fall in love with Marco's strange mud-coloured concoction.

Then, one day, Benjamin causes chaos in the kitchen.Covered head-to-toe in chocolate, he stumbles into the street and straight into the path of the real King - the King of France. Finally, the family get the breakthrough they nee

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.

What happens to a snow angel after you leave it behind? A little girl discovers she has an unusual protector in a modern fairy tale with gorgeously detailed illustrations.

The crisis of masculinity surfaced and converged with the crisis of the nation in the late Qing, after the doors of China were forced open by Opium Wars. The power of physical aggression increasingly overshadowed literary attainments and became a new imperative of male honor in the late Qing and early Republican China. Afflicted with anxiety and indignation about their increasingly effeminate image as perceived by Western colonial powers, Chinese intellectuals strategically distanced themselves from the old literati and reassessed their positions vis-à-vis violence. In Mastery of Words and Swords: Negotiating Intellectual Masculinities in Modern China, 1890s–1930s, Jun Lei explores the formation and evolution of modern Chinese intellectual masculinities as constituted in racial, gender, and class discourses mediated by the West and Japan. This book brings to light a new area of interest in the “Man Question” within gender studies in which women have typically been the focus. To fully r

Eros of International Relations: Self-Feminizing and the Claiming of Postcolonial Chineseness is a distinctive work that explores the much-neglected Chinese perspective in broader international relations theory. Using the concept of “self-feminizing”―adoption of a feminine identity to oblige and achieve mutual caring as a relational strategy―this book argues that postcolonial actors have employed gendered identities in order to survive the squeezing pressure of globalization and nationalism in their own ways. Sovereign actors who have historically claimed to act on behalf of Chineseness have taken advantage of the images of femininity thrust upon them by transnational capitalism, the media, or intellectual thought.Shih illustrates the feminist potential for emancipation through a range of empirical examples, showing that women of various Chinese characteristics, acting on behalf of their nation, city, and corporations, reject the masculinization of their groups of belonging as remedy f

The crayons are back in this funny, festive book from the creators of the #1 New York Times bestselling The Day Crayons Quit and The Day the Crayons Came Home! In this Christmas story starring the crayons from The Day The Crayons Quit, Green Crayon is certain that he is the only Christmas colour in the box. Of course, Red, White, Silver and even Brown have something to say about that… When Green Crayon claims that green is the only colour for Christmas, other crayons let him know that there would be no Christmas without them either. No candy canes or Santa without Red, no snow without White, no bells or stars without Silver and no cookies or reindeer without Brown! The crayons agree that they all need to come together to make Christmas special! This humorous Christmas story is the perfect stocking filler for fans of The Day The Crayons Quit.
