「濟慈的夜鶯歌會永遠在人們的記憶裡存著」 余光中、徐志摩也讚賞不已 世界浪漫主義詩歌代表作 中英朗讀雙語詩選 Ｘ 紀念藏書票 “That I can never tell what mood is best. I shall as soon pronounce which grace more neatly Trips it before Apollo than the rest.” 「我永遠說不出你哪種情致最好： 就想很難說哪位優雅女神 在阿波羅面前舞得最美。」 《夜鶯頌》、《伊薩貝拉》、《秋頌》等著名長詩，都是濟慈於1819 年所創作的作品。在胞弟逝世、身陷經濟壓力、愛而不得的痛苦下，濟慈將一切傾注於詩歌。 在弟弟離開人世、自己也身患重病，與心愛女子也無法長廂廝守，受困在現實所帶來的囹圄中，夜鶯即代表了詩人所渴望的自由與一切美好，他渴望如夜鶯一般，純潔、美麗，在空中自在遨翔。 “Beauty is truth, truth beauty” 詩歌鮮明如圖畫、又如飄揚樂聲，「美即是真，真即是美」，濟慈的詩完美地體現了西方浪漫主義的特點，以古文明為背景，寫象徵和神話，強調想像與自然，表現出理想和希望，抒發個人的主觀感受和情緒，卻在浪漫主義之下又同時兼具現實主義，既藝術地描寫美好的理想生活，又真實地再現當時的社會生活。也因為如此，他留下來的詩篇才能帶給我們無限的精神享受。 “But though I’ll gladly trace these scenes with thee, Yet the sweet converse of an innocent mind, Whose words are images of thoughts refin’d, Is my soul’s pleasure; and it sure must be Almost the highest bliss of human-kind, When to thy haunts two kindred spirits flee.” 「儘管我願意和你觀賞這些景物， 但我更樂於和純潔的心靈親切交談； 傾聽精妙思想中的意象及語言， 這是我心靈的快樂；我相信 這必定是人類最高的樂趣， 兩個投緣者的共棲之地。」

About MigrationsDiscover how the migration of peoples has shaped the modern world.This beautifully-illustrated book details the movement of people and cultures around the world - from the early migrations of Homo erectus out of Africa 50,000 years ago to modern refugee movements and migrations.Through striking photographs, evocative illustrations, and intimate first hand accounts, Migrations explores famous (and infamous) movements in history, from the Middle Passage and Trail of Tears to the California Gold Rush and the Windrush generation.While many traditional world histories focus on (mainly European) "exploration" and "discovery", Migrations explores the story of each continent and focuses on cultures rather than conquest.

二戰正式打響，英國男孩Solly被送往英國鄉間躲避倫敦大轟炸，在華沙的表親Bernie則因猶太身分日益危險，冒險前往蘇軍占領區，卻一度進了勞改營。兩名少年在信件裡傾訴彼此的經歷，互相鼓舞，兩人的書信往返，在動盪時代下見證殘酷與希望。Beginning in 1939, young Solly in London exchanges letters with his teenaged cousin, Bernie, in Poland. While Solly is evacuated and tries his best to adjust to life in the English countryside, Bernie's parents know that as Jews they're not safe staying in Warsaw, so they send Bernie to the Russian-occupied side of the country in the hope that he'll be safer there.Soon, though, he is arrested and sent off to a forced labour camp in Russia.As the cousins exchange sporadic letters, they try to keep their spirits up, trading jokes and observations about the world changing all around them.Then Bernie seizes the opportunity to join the "Anders Army" and fight the Axis powers, and tells Solly all about his experiences in Iran and eventually Italy, where he fights alongside the British at the famous Battle of Monte Cassino.Does Bernie survive and find a safe place to call home?

Nicola Davies and Jenni Desmond's first collaboration: a spectacular tour of Planet Earth and a powerful rallying cry. Where on Earth are you, right now? It's late where I am and almost everyone's asleep, but I'm awake, looking out into the night. Wondering...As the clock strikes midnight, a little girl and her sister visit animals of every shape and size, all around the world - discovering that, in some places, creatures have just started their day, where in others they're already busy hunting for food. Turning the popular concept of time-zones on its head and combining it with a powerful climate message and delightful illustrations, this book is narrative non-fiction at its most spellbinding. "Nicola Davies is one of the best children's writers in the business." Huffington Post"Jenni Desmond knows just how to make children's precious imaginations soar." Guardian
