A novel dialogue between Buddhism and Western psychology, grounded in original Pali texts. As mindfulness and meditation become mainstream therapeutic tools, their deep Buddhist roots are often stripped away and limit their effectiveness for clients from Buddhist cultural backgrounds. Early Buddhist Teachings: A Theoretical Foundation for Counseling restores these practices to their original context, offering a culturally congruent counseling model grounded in Pali scriptures and core Buddhist principles. This informative volume explores key Buddhist concepts including dependent co-arising, non-self, and impermanence, and places them in conversation with Western psychological theories. Supplemented with practical assessment tools and intervention techniques, this work provides mental health professionals with a new framework for integrating Buddhist teachings into counseling. For therapists, students, and counselors seeking to expand their approach, Early Buddhist Teachings offers a vi

The COVID-19 pandemic was a global crisis that affected millions of lives and brought mental health challenges to the forefront. In Hong Kong, the situation was worsened by uniquely strict COVID-19 regulations, quarantine measures, and travel restrictions.

打字機上的遺作，史家列文森未竟的關懷 中國歷史的特殊性如何與普遍的世界史相調和？什麼是列文森追尋的「新形式的世界主義」？ 「人的本性不是普遍的，但他的歷史是。」 附魏斐德（Frederic Wakeman, Jr.）長序，詳述《儒家中國及其現代命運》之後的新「三部曲」 麻省理工學院教授、列文森之子托馬斯．列文森（Thomas Levenson） 作序葉文心、歐立德（Mark C. Elliott）、董玥、黃樂嫣（Gloria Davies）、齊慕實（Timothy Cheek）、白傑明（Geremie R. Barmé） 聯合撰寫長篇導讀 在完成《儒家中國及其現代命運》之後，約瑟夫．列文森（Joseph Levenson, 1920–1969）原擬圍繞「地方主義與世界主義」寫作新的三部曲。因他猝然去世，未能完篇。本書為該三部曲第三卷的部分內容，基於在香港中文大學搜集的20世紀以來西方戲劇的中文譯本等資料展開研究：面臨中國文化認同的現代困境，新興的世界主義者如何以各自的方式回應過去與當下、普遍與特殊等根本性的焦慮；而他們的對手，「他們的同類，他們的兄弟」—地方主義的文化革命者們，在怎樣的層面上與他們產生深切的共鳴。 書前附有列文森的學生與同事、加州大學伯克利分校歷史系教授魏斐德（Frederic Wakeman, Jr., 1937–2006）的長篇序言，依據列文森的著述、未刊筆記和草稿，介紹這一研究的前前後後，及其在列氏思想脈絡中的延續和突破。

列文森（Joseph R. Levenson） 舒扶瀾（Franz Schurmann）加州伯克利中國通史講義殘稿，首次中譯 並非歷史信息與細節的疊加 「我們試圖讓歷史學習成為深化思想複雜性的過程」 麻省理工學院教授、列文森之子托馬斯．列文森（Thomas Levenson） 作序葉文心、歐立德（Mark C. Elliott）、董玥、黃樂嫣（Gloria Davies）、齊慕實（Timothy Cheek）、白傑明（Geremie R. Barmé） 聯合撰寫長篇導讀 1960年代，約瑟夫．列文森（Joseph R. Levenson, 1920–1969）與舒扶瀾（Franz Schurmann, 1926–2010）在加州大學伯克利分校開設中國歷史課程，其講義中關於「早期中國」的部分在列文森身後出版，即本書《詮釋中國史：從源起到漢亡》。 與一般中國通史不同，本書在敘述史實之外，逐章引入對思想史中關鍵概念和框架的辨析，進而對歷史書寫和研究作出深刻的反思。在列文森看來，中國歷史不僅是某種基於朝代更迭、簡單遞進的連續過程，而是「極度的多樣性，一次又一次地將中國重構成統一的整體」。

The first exhaustive English-language history and analysis of the Chinese opera genre, Kunqu. In Kunqu: A Classical Opera of Twenty-First-Century China, Joseph S. C. Lam offers a holistic and interdisciplinary view of Kunqu, a 600-year-old genre of Chinese opera that has been fashionably performed inside and outside of China. The first comprehensive and scholarly book on Kunqu written in English, this book explains how and why the genre charms and signifies Chinese culture, history, and personhood. Approaching the genre from several perspectives, ranging from those of performers and producers to those of casual audiences, dedicated connoisseurs, and scholarly critics, Lam also employs a judicious blend of Chinese and international theories and methods. Herein, he establishes the significance of Kunqu not only in the sphere of Chinese music but among the cultural heritage and performing arts at a global level as well.

First published in 1968, this volume of essays, posthumously edited by the author’s brother Professor C. T. Hsia (a prominent Columbia University professor of Chinese literature), focuses on Chinese literary criticism relating to the work of leftist Chinese writers, including Lu Hsün, Chiang Kuang-tz’u, the “Five Martyrs,” and Chü Ch’iu-po, who were sympathetic to the ideals of the pre-1949 Chinese communist party. As one of the few foundational texts to provide a critical overview of the aesthetics and politics of China’s leftist literary movement, The Gate of Darkness examines the conflicting dilemmas between leftist authors’ own ideals and the strict ideological frameworks imposed by the propaganda policies of the Chinese communist party in the early twentieth century.Hsia’s essays are exciting reading precisely because Mr. Hsia approached his subject not merely with the index-cards of a historian but also with the sensitive eyes of a novelist. Tsi-an Hsia is a creative and compassi

焚風一把青 颱風襲台之前，一度出現「焚風」――真是個好聽的名兒。不過所謂「焚風」，即危難前夕先頭部隊，魔鬼的指爪。狂風未至，暴雨未下，一陣一陣飛沙，氣溫飆升至36-37。C，相對濕度只得47%左右，又熱又乾。此時人人都在戒備狀態，街頭冷冷清清。 「焚風」對農作物造成的傷害，同颱風一樣嚴重。每當台灣風災，海陸空交通當然大受影響，島國更遭洗劫，死傷失蹤者眾。 市面百物騰貴，尤其是農作物。西瓜賣至

傳奇歷史學家列文森開創性著作，全新翻譯「梁啟超的思想是他的牢籠。」他的自相矛盾，他的一變再變，是要為怎樣的一個問題提供答案？當找到這個問題，就找到了思想史的關鍵。 麻省理工學院教授、列文森之子托馬斯．列文森（Thomas Levenson） 作序葉文心、歐立德（Mark C. Elliott）、董玥、黃樂嫣（Gloria Davies）、齊慕實（Timothy Cheek）、白傑明（Geremie R. Barmé） 聯合撰寫長篇導讀 《梁啟超與近代中國思想》是美國歷史學家約瑟夫．列文森的第一部專著，從「變形記」、「美麗新世界」、「追憶似水年華」三階段追索中國近代知識人梁啟超的思想嬗變，探求他身處歷史和價值撕裂的煎熬之中，如何從傳統突圍、擁抱進步主義和現代西方，卻又在生命的最後十年主動走向不合時宜，「一夫當關把守舊中國的疆土」。作者的視野並不限於思想者個體，而是以歷史與個人的交互作用貫穿全書，通過梁氏思想中種種「必然的前後矛盾」和「理性上的不完美」，不斷反觀歷史，揭示近代中國思想史鮮麗複雜的面貌及其變化的本質。 「梁啟超經歷了漫長的回家之路，他在半途碰見了年輕的一代。 他幾乎徹底心碎後才到達了反傳統文化之境，而年輕人從他手中接過的是一種自然狀態、一份免費禮物、一個出發點。對他而言只是冰山一角的想法（水面之下深埋著他對傳統文化的赤忱），對年輕人來說是基石。他們追隨了他一段時間，並沒有說要永遠追隨他。 這就是為何《新青年》的『新青年』們看似在說跟梁啟超一樣的話，卻很少跟他一起說。因為二者的語言並非真正相同，『一樣的』思想並不一樣。 當一戰改變了這些思想進行的環境，梁氏的思想從根源上決定了他的不合時宜。」
