Complex Data Modeling and Computationally Intensive Statistical Methods

鉴于近年来学界对新发现的中古时期文献和考古资料的广泛关注，北京大学中国古代史研究中心将在2017年 内举办 “文本性与物质性交错的中古中国：中古研究新前沿国际研讨会”（Textuality and Materiality in Medieval China: International Symposium at Peking University），本卷《唐研究》作为会议论文专集，希望重点讨论中古中国历史资料中文本性和物质性的关系，以此来重新评估5到10世纪文本与物质资料的历史价值。这一评估可以从各个角度来展开（艺术、经济、历史、文学以及宗教），尤其涉及以下几个方面的问题：1. 中古的文本性与物质性，2. 文本性与物质性的交错，3. 文本与物质制作的多重目的，4. 文本与物质的消费实践。各篇论文将就上述议题展开讨论。

「入圍的有～」 你一定聽過他的聲音！ 台灣最低調卻又最烙印人心的聲音， 國家級典禮司儀 —「德仔」的人生紀實 完整陳述與配音工作、廣播、劇場、辯論、政治與同志身分交織的心緒歷程 「對我來說，自己是這麼的普通，我的人生除了好運了些之外毫無神奇之處。」—賈培德 你從什麼角度看待自己的人生呢？ 人生的歷程往往是由許多意外與機會形塑而成，重點是你在面對的這些時刻，有沒有辦法接住他們的勇氣！ 資深媒體人得德仔，從配音工作、廣播、劇場、辯論、政治與同志身分，他接受不同挑戰（伴隨著些許誤打誤撞？），一路走來不畏懼與他人不一樣的人生。 廣播—「廣播節目是我的私密小房間」，他這麼說 配音—無論是哪種配音員，你絕不能用「老天賞飯吃」來形容他們的工作 辯論—成立「中華辯論推廣協進會」是因為中年危機？ 劇場—「人生沒有機會重來」，是德仔愛上演戲的最大理由 同志—身為少數公開出櫃的公眾人物之一，他的初衷只是單純想對社會產生正面的影響 政治—對於公共議題的關注與使命感，是想證明自己比多數人更愛台灣 德仔認為堅持做對的事不只是為了他人，更重要的是為了讓自己快樂。大從事業、婚姻等等人生重大選擇，小到日常生活飲食習慣，都要勇敢的忠於自己，也是這些專屬於自己的各種細節定義了每個人無可取代的存在。 如果我們有一天要總結自己的人生，要為自己這個人下一個評語時，能不能夠很有信心地告訴自己：「我是一個善良、正直的好人」呢？如果在大方向上總是朝著正確的方向前進，那麼就可以很有自信地、沒有躊躇與懷疑地讓自己快樂了。 名人推薦 「醺醉，條理，叛逆與邏輯，不知為何能如此調和地顯現在德仔身上。」 —「台灣新生代知名女作家（誤）」羅毓嘉 「我好怕德仔，他是個犀利的老實人。」 —「中廣流行網Midnight You and Me主持人」豆子 「這位骨灰級斜槓人生始祖，也該是時候分享他的才華、熱情和生活之間如何達到如此高端的理想平衡。」—「劇場女神」謝盈萱 「臺灣人最熟悉的好聲音！感謝德仔這次不藏私，用一本好書，跟大家分享自己的人生與智慧。從配音到辯論，從婚姻平權，到社會觀察，體現了在不同位置都能積極參與公共事務的典範！」 —「前行政院長、民進黨黨主席」蘇貞昌

This book is a study of social and cultural change in the lower Yangzi delta. This region, Ming China’s economic heartland, flourished commercially and culturally during the sixteenth century, and its elites maintained strong political ties with the central government at Beijing. Drawing upon a large body of contemporary writings, the author discusses important socio-economic and cultural trends wherein scholars and scholar-officials entered the marketplace while the merchant class improved its status and importance. For all the benefits they brought about, these developments sowed the seeds of trouble. The author explains how unconstrained profit-seeking eroded the social and moral fabric of society and widened the gap between rich and poor. Toward the end of the sixteenth century, economic conditions worsened. Bitter resentments gave rise to popular riots against predatory great families. Eventually, mass revolts across the empire and Manchu’s invasion dealt a crushing blow to th

China’s ascent to the ranks of the world’s second largest economic power has given its revolution a better image than that of its Russian counterpart. Yet the two have a great deal in common. Indeed, the Chinese revolution was a carbon copy of its predecessor, until Mao became aware, not so much of the failures of the Russian model, but of its inability to adapt to an overcrowded third-world country. Yet, instead of correcting that model, Mao decided to go further and faster in the same direction. The aftershock of an earthquake may be weaker, but the Great Leap Forward of 1958 in China was far more destructive than the Great Turn of 1929 in the Soviet Union. It was conceived with an idealistic end but failed to take all the possibilities into account. China’s development only took off after—and thanks to—Mao’s death, once the country turned its back on the revolution. Lucien Bianco’s original comparative study highlights the similarities: the all-powerful bureaucracy; the over-explo

經濟學大師 熊彼得、海耶克 大力推崇的經濟學經典—— 這本150年前的經典著作告訴我們：為什麼政府常犯錯、為什麼法律不正義，什麼才是健全的經濟邏輯。 本書的作者巴斯夏（Frederic Bastiat）是十九世紀的法國經濟學家、政治家。 經濟學大師熊彼得（Joseph Schumpeter）稱讚巴斯夏是「有史以來最出色的經濟新聞記者」。 海耶克（F.A. Hayek）稱他是「政治經濟評論的天才」。 在〈看得見與看不見的〉（That Which Is Seen and That Which Is Not Seen）這篇文章中，巴斯夏以一個小孩打破了玻璃窗為例，說明一個行為或政策，即使在當下有看得見的結果（通常是某種利益），也可能有看不見的後果（通常是某種傷害）。然而，每當政府推行新政策，往往只看到「看得見」的部分、忽略了「看不見」的部分，或是只看到短期效應、忽略了長期效應，而導致政策失敗、人民受害，造成種種不公。 以破窗戶的寓言為開端，所探討的主題包括：課稅、政府補助（產業、藝文活動、教育）、公共建設、公務員、貿易保護主義、就業問題、節儉的矛盾等等。 這篇文章寫於1850年，但直到今天，仍持續發揮影響力。作者著書立說，大力宣揚經濟自由、私有產權、人權的理念，以及為何應該採取自由貿易，並且節制政府的權力。在他辭世百年之後，重新又開始被人們討論，知名經濟作家亨利．赫茲利特（Henry Hazlitt）就是受到這篇文章的啟發，而寫出經典之作《一課經濟學》。其中的破窗戶寓言，首次提出「機會成本」的概念，雖然要到五十年後這個名詞才被確定下來。 在另一篇名作〈論法律〉（The Law）當中，巴斯夏批評當時盛行的社會主義思想，說明政府施政不是萬靈丹，政府只應該具有「有限的」功能——保護人民的生命、自由、財產安全，它不能什麼都做。利益團體常常藉由法律，掠奪平民百姓的財產，這就是「合法掠奪」，也就是所謂「五鬼搬運法」。作者說： 「法律有時會與掠奪者站在一起，甚至會親自進行掠奪，好讓受惠者免於羞恥、危險與良心不安。」 「我們這個時代盛行著一種幻覺，以為透過彼此犧牲一些利益可以造福所有的階級——以法律為幌子，實際上進行的卻是全面掠奪。」 「法律會被誤用，主要有兩個原因：不智的自私，和錯誤的博愛。」 最後一篇文章〈蠟燭製造商的請願書〉（The Candlemakers P

As we present in one book the poems of thirty poets who had helped to shape modern China, we anticipate readers to find the contents rich, revealing and meaningful. Our readers will see from the words of the poets a clear view of who is what, and identify wise decisions from selfish mistakes. They will then understand history in human dynamic terms.

China stands as a major “Red Swan” challenge to the social sciences. The resilience of the Communist party-state, in combination with a rapidly expanding and internationally competitive economy, challenges conventional models of economic development and political change. This book focuses on crucial governmental action programs and examines the manner in which they were developed, formulated, implemented, adjusted, and revised. It finds that Chinese policy making has been driven by a distinctive political methodology—an unusual combination of long-term national agendas with versatile local policy experimentation—that serves as an effective mechanism for policy innovation and correction, and thus provides strong adaptive capabilities in a perpetually shifting economic, technological and international context. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An original and persuasive book by one of the leading scholars of China’s policy-making process. The paradox of China’s successful market reforms is that they wer

Previous collections of photographs illustrating the lost world of Old Hong Kong have tended to focus exclusively on black-and-white images from before the Second World War. In this new collection of photographs from the period 1948-1969, Otto Lam has instead selected a dazzling array of images in glorious full colour, most of them taken by overseas visitors to Hong Kong, including some of the earliest surviving colour views of the city and its environs. These evocative images demonstrate what a vibrant place Hong Kong was during this crucial period in the colony's rapid economic growth and modernisation. This volume, covering a wide range of images from daily life in post-war Hong Kong, comes at a time when a new generation of citizens is taking a greater interest in the rich and largely intangible heritage of their city.

Why is Selflessness a way to Wisdom? This book is a real story, but more than that it is also a book for academic life education purpose. It first contains real stories from eleven suicide prevention telephone hotline volunteers of the Samaritan Befrienders Hong Kong (SBHK) who had been serving for more than 25 years. They came from all walks of life such as engineer, businessman, teacher, nurses and housewife. There were episodes of unforgettable conversation between volunteers and clients, stories of how volunteer managed the situation when a suicide attempt was ongoing at the other end of the phone. Based on these stories, the author, who are also a long-serving volunteers of SBHK himself, combined with several academic references to explore relationships between empathy, selflessness, virtues, transcendence, wisdom and Eudaimonia (ultimate happiness) which human being should be aware of and to try to understand. This book consists of two parts. The first part is a series of stor

A sincere life experience sharing from a Catholic As a lay Catholic, in this book Cindy Yuen Chan asks the question: how one can learn to be more forgiving? Starting from reflecting on her own faults and herself as being an offender, Cindy shares how Catholic teachings brought more forgiveness into her life and helps her to live a grateful life. This book shares her insights while exploring how forgiveness relates to salvation, empathy and justice.

It is our choice …. When the Cock Crows for the Second Time is worth reading; not only to Catholics and Christians, but also people who do not yet know Jesus. The book was

For so many around the world, it was in the cinema that they saw their first glimpse of martial arts. Through the films of Lau Kar Leung, among others, they came to appreciate the power and skill of many kung fu techniques. However devotees and practitioners of kung fu and Hung Kuen were aware of the much longer tradition of these arts and in particular, the contribution of both the Lam family and the Lau family. In 2009 the Hong Kong Government endeavoured to identify and recognize forms of intangible cultural heritage. It was this awareness of a vibrant part of Hong Kong history and culture which led to the creation of the Hong Kong Martial Arts Living Archive, and from this the exhibition, Lingnan Hung Kuen Across the Century: Kung Fu Narratives in Hong Kong Cinema and Community. In the exhibition and this companion book, the histories of the Lam and Lau families are traced, and their role in preserving and creating new stances and forms and bringing Hung Kuen to a wider audience th

In a career of public service spanning 30 years, Dr. Leong Che-hung had always been there when Hong Kong people needed him. His faith in serving his own people had taken him from the operating theatre to the Executive Council and Legislative Council representing the medical constituency, and he was successively appointed as the Chairman of the Hospital Authority, the HKU Council and the Elderly Commission, among others. Now, for the first time, Dr. Leong uses each phase of his professional and public career as a spur to reflect on what makes Hong Kong tick. Opinionated, perceptive and often prescient, he tells the inside stories of the city’s most challenging health care crisis and most treasured medical triumphs. Throughout the book, he thinks passionately about many pressing issues facing Hong Kong, and why they are not only challenges but also opportunities. In the end, this is a book more about the history and future of Hong Kong than the life of one of its inhabitants.

This publication accompanies an unprecedented exhibition highlighting four of the magnificent chinoiserie tapestries of Chinese Emperor Qianlong, woven after designs by François Boucher at the famous Beauvais manufactory from 1758–1760. The large and well-preserved textiles form part of the royal French commission by King Louis XV, objects of which were presented to Qianlong in 1766. These celebrated tapestries are joined by another historic set of culturally related depictions in print—The Battles of the Emperor of China. The engravings were ordered by Qianlong, drawn by Jesuit painters at the Imperial Court in Beijing and then printed in Paris 1769–1774. The ‘culture’ of these prints follows King Louis XIV’s influential images of the Histoire du Roi and presents Qianlong as both a war hero and as the undisputed leader of China in the mid-eighteenth century. These depictions date to the exact same time period, one that coincides with the high demand for chinoiserie in France—culmina

Chinese-speaking popular cultures have never been so queer in this digital, globalist age. The title of this pioneering volume, Boys’ Love, Cosplay, and Androgynous Idols: Queer Fan Cultures in Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan already gives an idea of the colorful, multifaceted realms the fans inhabit today. Contributors to this collection situate the proliferation of (often online) queer representations, productions, fantasies, and desires as a reaction against the norms in discourses surrounding nation-states, linguistics, geopolitics, genders, and sexualities. Moving beyond the easy polarities between general resistance and capitulation, Queer Fan Cultures explores the fans’ diverse strategies in negotiating with cultural strictures and media censorship.

This edited volume seeks to highlight the development of play therapy in various countries and cities in Asia. The editors discuss how mostly Western play therapy approaches are adapted for use in Asian countries. Having existed for years in the West, play therapy is still in its early stage of development in most Asian countries including Mainland China, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. This is the first play therapy book written by experts from specific Asian cultures for practitioners and students who are working in the mental health field for Asian groups. Each chapter first describes play therapy development in that particular culture and then uses a case study to illustrate how play therapy can be adapted to suit specific cultural beliefs and environments in order to connect parents with their children or to address clients’ needs. This text will be welcomed by professors, clinicians, and parents of all cultures East and West.

俳句式的極短詩作，極簡的基調。由現代詩主流中昇華而出的新聲音。 ◎中英雙語對照Chinese – English。首數是333，加上英譯部分則為666首。 ◎一種良性的「脫胎換骨」；跨越了「現代詩」，奔回那源頭「詩歌」來！ ◎在「質」的方面產生了「良性變異」，風格命名為「自然神秘」，迥異於當前仍是詩中「顯學」的「現代詩」！ 倘若一輩子只寫「現代詩」作品，便是不能「找到詩歌裡的自己」（to find the self of the poetry），也便是讓自己的「我的詩歌自我」（my poetry self）成為「現代詩」的「殖民地」！──白家華 儘管雨珠居住在雲朵的淨潔之屋裡， 它們仍然樂意降落到地上來協助小野花盛開。 Even though the raindrops dwell in the clean houses of the clouds, they are pleased to fall down to the ground and help the little wild flowers blossom.

Tracing its origins back to 1822 in Whampoa, the Mariners’ Club in Hong Kong was established to meet a specific need for an Anglo-Chinese society defined by that most dubious of activities, seafaring. Its creation was anything but straightforward, and in this can be seen the mutable and often tortuous relations between the various religious bodies, the local population, the transient sailors, the emerging captains of industry, and the growing regulatory reach of the colonial government. The club evolved through many embodiments and witnessed the growth of Hong Kong from a collection of mat-sheds on the foreshore, through colony to its current status. Throughout its turbulent past it has been occasionally marginalized but has always served as an important base for the key actors in the main commercial activity in Hong Kong: seafarers. This is a history of one of the most enduring institutions of Hong Kong, and the first of its kind. Using the Club’s own records as well as a wide rang

This book is an attempt to clarify the history of San On County — the broader Hong Kong area — centring on the troubled years of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It is based on an in-depth study of the San On County Gazetteer, which allows for a detailed discussion of the role, attitudes, and personalities of the San On magistrates, who were the heads of the county administration during this period. Particular focus is given to Zhou Xiyao (magistrate 1640–1644) and Li Kecheng (magistrate 1670–1675). The study finds that they, and at least some of the other magistrates of this period, were genuinely concerned about the county and its people, and tried as best they could to provide good and effective government for them.

The first of its kind, this book presents a comprehensive collection of leading patent cases from nine major Asian jurisdictions which are analyzed by eminent scholars and legal practitioners from Asia, Germany, and the United States. It contains thirty case reports covering six topics which best reflect the current trends in Asia in patent law, namely specialized IP court (or division), compulsory licensing, the intersection between patent law and competition law, injunction, damages, and choice of jurisdiction and law in cross-border patent litigation. Each case report explores a landmark case by deconstructing the legal background and the legal reasoning of the decisions, and then discussing the commercial and/or industrial ramifications. The present volume is a useful guide for practitioners, lawyers, and judges alike, a primer for students and businessmen entering the IP world, and a reminder for policymakers, both within Asia and further afield.
