The Authorship of Place is the first monograph dedicated to the study of the politics, history, aesthetics, and practices of location shooting for Taiwanese, Mainland Chinese, and coproduced art cinemas shot in rural communities since the late 1970s. Dennis Lo argues that rural location shooting, beyond serving aesthetic and technical needs, constitutes practices of cultural survival in a region beset with disruptive and disorienting social changes, including rapid urbanization, geopolitical shifts, and ecological crises. In response to these social changes, auteurs like Hou Xiaoxian, Jia Zhangke, Chen Kaige, and Li Xing engaged in location shooting to transform sites of film production into symbolically meaningful places of collective memories and aspirations. These production practices ultimately enabled auteurs to experiment with imagining Taiwanese, Mainland Chinese, and cross-strait communities in novel and contentious ways. Deftly guiding readers on a cross-strait tour of promin

Prized by Chinese and foreign merchants as an essential commodity along a vast trade network, silk served multiple roles throughout the ancient world: as fabric for garments, as a form of currency and method of tax payment, and as a medium and subject matter for professional artists and the literati class. Over the centuries, silk fabrics have remained synonymous with beauty and are entwined throughout Chinese art and literature. Extending from the Qing dynasty to the mid-20th century, UMAG’s silk textile collection encompasses a diverse range of subjects and formats that include hanging scrolls, framed panels, banners and robes. Each artwork exemplifies the sophisticated craftsmanship of the artisans and the collective stories of the Qing dynasty’s textile industry. 絲綢在龐大的貿易網絡中，一直是備受中外商旅追捧的商品。它在古代世界所扮演的角色極為豐富──絲綢既是一種紡織原料，亦是一種貨幣和用以賦稅之物，更是藝術家和文人的創作媒介和題材。多個世紀以來，絲綢是美的象徵，它與中國藝術和文學緊密交織。香港大學美術博物館所藏清代至二十世紀中葉的中國絲織物，題材豐富，形式多樣，包括立軸、掛屏、幡及龍袍等。每件織物既展現出工匠的鬼斧神工，亦訴說着清代紡織業的種種故事。

Translated from the original French publication, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of twentieth-century Chinese literature and examines the relationship between Chinese literary theory and modernity. Jin Siyan surveys the work of leading writers including Zhang Ailing, Bei Dao, and Mu Dan. She seeks to answer some fundamental questions in the study of Chinese literary history, such as: How does contemporary Chinese literature go from historical narrative to the narrative of the I, where rhythm and epic merge into writing, and where the instinctive load of the rhythm substantiates the epic? What are the steps and the forms of mediation that allow such a transition? Is the subject the only agent of the transition? What is its status? What is the role of poetic language that led to the birth of the subject and which separates it from empiricism? What are the difficulties faced by Chinese writers today? Young Chinese writers set off in search of a totally new writing to rediscove

「新創台灣」計畫分為兩個階段，目標是希望能夠從外國人的角度重新檢視台灣的新創生態圈 。 台灣現在越來越受到國際社會的關注，台灣不但擁有高品質的生活水準，在許多方面推動進步的政策，最近更成為了國際肯定的防疫典範，這也讓更多外國人開始考慮來台創業 。 這個計畫的第一階段是推廣我們的指南書。 《新創台灣：外國人在台創業指南》 藉由這本書，我們希望為想在台灣成立公司的讀者提供平衡而且全面的指南，內容則會聚焦在外籍創業家所需要的重要資訊。 這本書不只分享台灣政府的官方觀點、採訪了政府內部人士還獨家採訪了許多民營企業與外籍新創的創辦人 。 基於我們多年的財經記者經驗，我們嘗試以最客觀的角度來撰寫這本書，我們採訪了20多位新創的產業人士與專家還有許多在台灣的外籍新創的網路社群組織也參考了50多個網站的資料，就是希望讓這本書在出版後能夠為讀者帶來最多、最有幫助的實用資訊。 計畫的第二個階段，是讓更多新創生態圈的人士關注我們整理出來的資訊與觀點，包括政府部門、民營企業與創業家。 我們希望各方都能針對台灣現在的創業政策與流程，同步接收到最新而且正確的資訊。 舉例來說，我觀察到雖然台灣政府政策一直有在進步，但似乎總是缺乏了非常關鍵的元素讓這些新政策能有效傳播的管道，這導致台灣雖然有資訊與言論的自由，整體經濟卻往往無法完整受惠於政府推動的新政策，這會有點可惜。 我們想邀請大家一起加入「新創台灣」計畫，在社群平台上用#StartupTaiwan這個 hashtag，向你的朋友與社群推廣台灣，我們希望藉此達成更遠大的目標，讓台灣受到更多外國人才的關注，甚至讓正在考慮回台灣的旅外台灣人能更加認識台灣的創業環境與潛力 。 Startup Taiwan is a two-fold campaign aimed at examining Taiwan’s startup ecosystem, from a foreigner’s point of view. As Taiwan gains the attention of the international community because of its consistent top-ranked standard of living, landmark

Fragmented Memories and Screening Nostalgia for the Cultural Revolution argues that films and TV dramas about the Cultural Revolution made after China’s accession to the WTO in 2001 tend to represent personal memories in a markedly sentimental, nostalgic, and fragmented manner. This new trend is a significant departure from earlier films about the subject, which are generally interpreted as national allegories, not private expressions of grief, regret or other personal feelings. With China entering a postsocialist era, the ideological conflation of socialism and global capitalism has generated enough cultural ambiguity to allow a space for the expression of personalized reminiscences of the past. By presenting these personal memories—in effect alternative narratives to official history—on screen, individuals now seem to have some agency in narrating and constructing history. At the same time such autonomy can be easily undermined since the promotion of the sentiment of nostalgia is of

From early times, Daoist writers claimed to receive scriptures via revelation from heavenly beings. In numerous cases, these writings were composed over the course of many nights and by different mediums. New revelations were often hastily appended, and the resulting unevenness gave rise to the impression that Daoist texts often appear slapdash and contain contradictions. A Library of Clouds focuses on the rewriting of Daoist scriptures in the Upper Clarity (Shangqing) lineage in fourth- and fifth-century China. Scholarship on Upper Clarity Daoism has been dominated by attempts to uncover “original” or “authentic” texts, which has resulted in the neglect of later scriptures— including the work fully translated and annotated here, the Scripture of the Immaculate Numen, one of the Three Wonders (sanqi) and among the most prized Daoist texts in medieval China. The scripture’s lack of a coherent structure and its different authorial voices have led many to see it not as a unified work but

Comfort Women Activism follows the movement championed by pioneer activists in Japan to demonstrate how their activism has kept a critical interpretation of the atrocities against women committed before and during World War II alive. The book shows how the challenges faced by the activists have evolved from the beginning of their uphill battles all the way to contemporary times. They were able to change social attitudes and get their message across. Yet the ambiguous position of post–World War II Japan’s government—which has consistently rejected any sign of guilt over its imperialist past—has kept the activists on their toes. Pivotal and serendipitous turning points have also played a crucial role. In particular, in the early 1990s, the post-Soviet world order assisted in creating the appropriate conditions for the movement to gather transnational support. These conditions have eroded over time; yet due to the activists’ fidelity to survivors, the movement has persisted to this day.

This is a most unusual book. For several decades Xi Xi has been widely known for her award-winning poetry and fiction. This time, she has chosen to write about the teddy bears she began making in 2005, after treatment for cancer, in order to improve the mobility of her right hand. She made the bears herself from scratch, choosing some of her favourite characters from history and legend such as the Taoist philosopher Master Zhuang, the Mongol ruler Genghis Khan, and Beauty and the Beast. She also created exquisite items of clothing for them and wove a series of delightfully witty essays around them, giving her readers fascinating insights into Chinese culture, and into the ways in which Chinese clothing and fashion have evolved through the ages. This is a book for all who love literature and teddy bears.

The Drunkard is one of the first full-length stream-of-consciousness novels written in Chinese. It has been called the Hong Kong Novel, and was first published in 1962 as a serial in a Hong Kong evening paper. As the unnamed Narrator, a writer at odds with a philistine world, sinks to his drunken nadir, his plight can be seen to represent that of a whole intelligentsia, a whole culture, degraded by the brutal forces of history: the Second Sino-Japanese War and the rampant capitalism of post-war Hong Kong. The often surrealistic description of the Narrator’s inexorable descent through the seedy bars and night-clubs of Hong Kong, of his numerous encounters with dance-girls and his ever more desperate bouts of drinking, is counterpointed by a series of wide-ranging literary essays, analysing the Chinese classical tradition, the popular culture of China and the West, and the modernist movement in Western and Chinese literature. The ambiance of Hong Kong in the early 1960s is graphically

Leung Ping Kwan brought as much talent and inspiration to the writing of his short stories as he did to his poems. ‘I have drawn on magical realism to explore the absurdity of Hong Kong,’ he wrote of the story ‘See Mun and the Dragon’ (1975) in which we find him using a simple, clipped style. The later story ‘Drowned Souls’ (2007) was written in a more symbolic, lyrical and more complex manner. Although the two stories are separated by over thirty years, and are in many ways so very different, dragons play a prominent part in both. The dragon has always been a fascinating creature, a complex embodiment of the timeless soul of China, symbol of the universal power of the imagination, of the creative energy and transformative possibilities of the Tao. Both of these enchanting stories are anchored in the author’s idea of freedom and liberation.

Leung Ping Kwan is one of Hong Kong’s most acclaimed poets. His poems display a unique blend of the literary and the down-to-earth, of the modern and the traditional, of the serious and the humorous, of the local and the universal. In his own words, ‘I want my poems about things to be a dialogue with the world, to learn and be inspired by the shapes, smells and colours of things….’ This collection has been carefully curated, and is arranged under ten thematic sections: Lotus Leaves, Hong Kong, Macao, Foodscape, After the Book of Songs, Strange Tales: After Pu Songling, Clothink, Museum Pieces, Places and Friends, and Bitter-Melon and Others. These translated poems, and the delight they bring, are a celebration of the continuing legacy of a remarkable Hong Kong poet.

美×藝術×哲學 我們的身邊充斥著各式各樣的設計作品，從公共空間的裝置藝術，到藝術館內靜靜陳列的藝術品，因而欣賞藝術成為了像呼吸一樣自然的事情。 然而我們或多或少都曾經為了美與藝術背後的哲學問題感到困惑：怎樣才算美？藝術到底是什麼？而觀眾、藝術家與作品之間的三角關係又是什麼？ 一九九九年，著名的黑人藝術家克里斯．奧菲利(Chris Ofili)在美國的布魯克林博物館展出了一件喚作〈聖母瑪利亞〉(The Holy Virgin Mary)的作品，而引發了軒然大波。時任紐約市市長的魯道夫．朱利亞尼(Rudolph Giuliani)甚至揚言要把布魯克林博物館的預算砍光，究竟讓朱利亞尼大為光火的〈聖母瑪利亞〉是怎樣的作品呢？奧菲利又想透過這部作品傳達什麼藝術理念呢？ 引發爭議的藝術作品當然不只出現在二十一世紀的現在而已，早在上個世紀就有許多藝術作品不斷地衝擊著觀眾的藝術標準。例如第二次世界大戰之前，當時德國著名的女導演蘭妮．萊芬斯坦(Leni Riefenstahl)替希特勒與納粹黨拍攝了一部紀錄片，稱作〈意志的勝利〉(Triumph of the Will)。在這部實為政治宣傳的影片中，萊芬斯坦運用精巧的攝影手法展現了對納粹主義的擁護，甚至企圖宗教化納粹精神以達到宣傳納粹執政的正統性。由此可見，藝術不僅僅是博物館裡的陳列品，更是能夠左右個人、社會，甚至國家的思想工具。但到底藝術與社會、國家之間又有什麼樣的關係呢？ 隨著網路資源的快速與便捷，一件藝術作品的欣賞與相關知識的吸收可以快速透過網路來完成，然而再發達的網路資源，也無法令人滿意地回答種種美與藝術背後的哲學問題： ▲藝術的功能是什麼？ ▲美有規則嗎？ ▲藝術家與藝術作品之間的關係是什麼？ ▲而觀眾又在作品與藝術家中間扮演什麼角色？ ▲究竟一個社會需不需要藝術？ ▲日常用品也可以是藝術品嗎？ ▲到底怎樣才算藝術？ 在本書中作者另闢蹊徑，擺脫以往用「唯美」的藝術作品來介紹美學，反而從七個迥異的主題下手，藉由美學與藝術哲學內最「冷硬」、最尖銳的議題來挑動讀者的哲學神經。這些議題還包括了對藝術體制的批判、藝術與詮釋問題、創作與靈感、解構藝術、藝術與性別／種族、藝術的本質等爭議，範圍除了涵蓋當代歐陸美學與分析美學兩大傳統外，也不忘討論美學史上重要的哲學家。 循著七種美學的「不流行讀法」，帶領讀者一窺藝術、美與哲學背後

管理大師怎會談生態願景？本書內容包含：美國文化與企業經營發展、對經濟學大師凱因斯的評論、企業管理的角色及管理創新、社會創新、企業社會責任與企業倫理、科技帶動的組織型態、日本文化與日本企業成功的分析等等，包羅萬象。閱讀杜拉克文章能幫助我們跳脫出既有的思維框架，獲得新的靈感與能力釋放！ 本書收錄的31 篇文章，是作者在四十餘年中陸續完成的作品，最早的一篇是第10章〈凱因斯：經濟是個神奇的體系〉，寫於1946 年；最新的一篇〈後記：一個社會生態學家的省思〉，是1992 年特地為本書所寫。本書涵蓋多門學科，主題包羅萬象，但全是有關「社會生態」的文章，探討的都是人為環境。這些文章研究個人和社會，或是個人和社群之間的互動，試圖將經濟、科技、藝術，視為社會經驗的不同層面，以及社會價值觀的多種呈現。全書沒有任何理論性的文章，最接近理論的，要屬第11 章〈管理的角色〉和第22 章〈資訊、溝通和理解〉；前者試圖提出一套管理理論，說明它在「組織型社會」（society of organizations）中，特定的社會功能；後者是從邏輯和感知（perception），也就是溝通和意涵兩方面，來探討資訊。不過，這兩篇文章絕非「純粹」的理論。而就算是偏向探討「實務性」，討論「該怎麼做」的文章，仍是有理論基礎，或是至少具備理論層面。本書行文淺顯易懂，希望讀者能夠樂在其中。

This is the first collection of essays in English, contributed by well-known experts of Chinese literature as well as scholars of a younger generation, dedicated to the poetry of Du Fu, commonly regarded as the greatest Chinese poet. These essays are engaged in historically nuanced close reading of Du Fu’s poems, both canonical and less known, from new angles and in various contexts, and discuss a series of critical issues, including the local and the imperial; the body politic and the individual body; poetry and geography; perspectives on the complicated relation of religion and literature; materiality and contemporary reception of Du Fu; poetry and visual art; and tradition and modernity. Many of the poems discussed in this book were written in the backwater town of Kuizhou, far from Du Fu’s earlier residence in the capital city Chang’an, at a time when the Tang dynasty was going through devastating social and political disturbances. The authors contend that Du Fu’s isolation from

Promoting All-Round Education for Girls presents the history of Heep Yunn School, one of the oldest girls’ schools in Hong Kong. Amalgamated from two British mission schools founded in the 1880s for destitute girls and daughters of Christian parents, and renamed Heep Yunn School in 1936, the institution has witnessed and responded to the dramatic changes of Hong Kong over the years. By the time of the outbreak of the Second World War, Heep Yunn had expanded to offer a full Chinese middle school course for girls based upon Christian principles of all-round education. The school expanded rapidly after the war and became a bilingual institution to meet the demand for English language education. Eventually English would become the primary medium of instruction soon after the introduction of nine-year universal education in 1978. Heep Yunn strives to provide a full-fledged all-round education in the midst of political and education reforms. The school opted to switch its status from a gove

歐內斯特．索薩是當代知識論的巨人。他在知識論的大部分範圍都有非常重要的貢獻；特別的是，他獨力開創了兩個當代知識論裡最重要的哲學觀念和理論：他在1980 年稱之為「德性觀點論」的德性知識論，以及在1999 年提出的「安全條件」作為知識的必要條件這一主張。 本書介紹和討論了索薩教授在目的規範德性理論（virtue theory of telic normativity）和德性知識論（virtue epistemology）中的重要思想。索薩論證，其德性知識論是目的規範德性理論的特例，從而置之於一更普遍的哲學框架之中。他在各章的論述中，展示了如何處理和解決由目的規範德性理論與德性知識論而產生的課題，描繪出目的規範德性理論的一幅清晰圖像。

English Explained explores the areas of English grammar that are most affected by misinformation and confusion and supplies the learner with the knowledge to finally grasp the workings of this multifaceted language. The fifty sections of English Explained cover the misunderstood, the misleading, and anything that appears to break the standard grammar ‘rules’ we are all taught. The book has been written, in the first instance, for teachers and prospective teachers (TESOL/TEFL) whose first language is not English. A key aim of the book, then, is assisting both students and teachers on a practical level by equipping them with the knowledge and the awareness to answer any challenging questions a teacher or an enquiring student may pose over the course of an English class. It will also prove invaluable to students of all disciplines who seek a better grasp and understanding of English grammar—essential for achieving competency in both writing and reading.

《香港動盪：法與治的歷史與文化解讀》透過審視香港發生的騷亂與社會運動，重新研究法治（rule of law）、法律和秩序（law and order，有譯作法紀或治安），以及管治（governance）在香港歷史上複雜的互動關係。本書將法律視為動態的歷史與文化過程，而非靜態的規章或官僚系統。參與社會運動的各色人士，透過與法律互動來表述他們所期望的社會、經濟和政治秩序。 本書旨在挑戰關於香港政治和法律的傳統論述，以期透過嶄新的跨學科角度，探究過去一個世紀以來的社會運動、法律、政治秩序與管治的關係，並凸顯香港歷史上這些運動背後的文化及權力意義。 除了重新審視這些傳統論述，本書還通過跨學科視角，分析法與治的問題。本書所載的篇章，既重視本地發展，亦關注更廣泛的國際形勢，透過探究各種社會運動所產生之法治與法律和秩序觀念，及至其想像與文化意義，以揭示過去百年間持續發展的正義、法律和秩序觀念，如何透過文化話語和藝術創作微妙地互動。本書安排政治和法律學者，與文化和歷史學者通過社會運動的故事進行多角度對話，構成一部獨特的跨學科香港社運論文集。

Everyday Masculinities in 21st-Century China: The Making of Able-Responsible Men argues that a moral dimension in Chinese masculinity is of growing significance in fast-changing China. ‘Able-responsible men’—those who can create wealth and shoulder responsibilities—have replaced the ‘moneyed elite’ of the earlier reform-and-opening-up era as the dominant male ideal. With vivid and highly readable case studies, Wong presents a compelling account of the forces that coerce men to live up to the able-responsible standard. She demonstrates the impact this pressure has on the lives of not only boys and men, but also on women, and shows how it invites both complicit and resistant reactions. The book lays bare the socio-political context that nurtures the cultural expressions of hegemonic masculinity under the rule of Xi Jinping. The president himself has emerged in public consciousness as the embodiment of the ideal able-responsible man. Based on anthropological fieldwork in Nanchong, Sichu

“Knickerbocker's History of New York” is the book by Washington Irving, an American writer who was born in New York City on April 3, 1783. It is published in December, 1809, with which Washington living, at the age of twenty-six, first won wide credit and influence. Knickerbocker's History of New York is a satire on self-important local history and contemporary politics. Prior to its publication, Irving started a hoax akin to today's viral marketing campaigns; he placed a series of missing person adverts in New York newspapers seeking information on Diedrich Knickerbocker, a crusty Dutch historian who had allegedly gone missing from his hotel in New York City. Today, author Washington Irving is best remembered for the iconic tales "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle." However, Irving also produced a number of well-regarded works of history and biography. This brilliant volume combines fact and fiction, offering a satirica

本套书包括《艾格妮丝·格雷3册》和《威尔德菲尔庄园的房客6册》共9册。《艾格妮丝·格雷》Agnes Grey is the debut novel of English author Anne Bront & euml; (writing under the pen name of Acton Bell), first published in December 1847, and republished in a second edition in 1850. The novel follows Agnes Grey, a governess, as she works within families of the English gentry. Scholarship and comments by Anne's sister Charlotte Bront & euml; suggest the novel is largely based on Anne Bront & euml's own experiences as a governess for five years. Agnes, her sister Mary, and their mother all try to keep expenses low and bring in extra money, but Agnes is frustrated that everyone treats her like a child. To prove herself and to earn money, she is determined to get a position as a governess. Eventually, she obtains a recommendation from a well-placed acquaintance, is offered a position, and secures her parents'permission. With some misgivings, she travels to Wellwood house to work for the Bloomfield family. The choice of central character a

The History of Pendennis: His Fortunes and Misfortunes, His Friends and His Greatest Enemy (1848—1850) is a novel by the English author William Makepeace Thackeray. The novel took two years for him to write. Set in 19th century London, England, this novel features a young English gentleman Arthur Pendennis born in the country who sets out to seek his place in life and society. The novel portrays his love affairs with the callous Blanche Amory and poor Fanny. Both of them marry other people, and Pendennis finally weds Laura Bell, his adopted sister, who had always loved him. The characters include the snobbish social hanger-on Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan. Miss Amory and Sir Francis Clavering are somewhat reminiscent of Becky Sharp and Sir Pitt from Vanity Fair. In line with other Thackeray's works, Pendennis offers an insightful and satiric picture of human character and aristocratic society. The masterful characterizations include the snobbish Major Pendennis and the
