本書透過梳理北宋前期的政治過程，分析宋代古文運動展開的歷史脈絡。上篇探討1008至1033年的所謂「天書時代」，如何在真宗與徐鉉後學的合作下，融合漢唐經學、讖緯學、道教思想於一體；下篇探討仁宗朝的古文運動如何在批判天書時代的政治文化中誕生。為探討此一政治過程，本書所關注的士大夫群體遠多於范仲淹及其政治支持者，從而深化仁宗朝古文運動的歷史過程。本書認為，天書時代是趙宋君臣將漢唐君主對「太平」的想像與操作，進行總結性的重組與展示，以為統治的正當性張本；天書時代在仁宗朝的破產，意味著此時士大夫反省，甚至放棄漢唐儒學所賦予的政治理念。是故，從天書時代到古文運動，可謂是中國政治史與儒學史典範轉移的關鍵時期。【名家推薦】這本改寫自博士論文的論著，在經過用心地大幅修改之後，不僅論證更為詳密，讀來也更容易掌握北宋前期的政治過程。全書的重點在指出，宋仁宗時代再興的古文運動，不僅是一項文學運動，也是一項針對從宋真宗大中祥符以後，到仁宗初期劉太后掌政期間，即本書所稱「天書時代」盛行的讖緯與道教化經學的經典重新解釋運動，且有其現實上的政治關懷。本書以文化資源如何運用於政治的考察，對北宋前期政治史的演進過程提供了一個新的觀察角度；而文中所涉及的個別問題，也注意到不少過去學者所未注意的歷史現象。此一新觀察角度，足以和學界原有的觀點並存，共同豐富我們對北宋前期歷史的認識。── 梁庚堯（臺大歷史系名譽教授）Based on a brilliant, critical reading of the primary sources, Chang Wei-ling presents a new and powerfully persuasive re-interpretation of the first 100 years of Song political and intellectual history. Meticulously researched, this work integrates the history of a distinctive “Great Peace” (taiping 太平) religious and political culture in the Zhenzong era (997-1022) and the later reaction against thi

Reverse paintings on glass occupy a special place in Chinese art, spanning the genres of glass working, export art, folk art, erotica, and meiren hua (paintings of beauties). Their unique appearance is the result of a challenging production process in which artists layer pigments in the reverse order of the normal painting procedure–highlights first, then mid-layers, and finally base colours. The final product is viewed in reverse from the opposite side of the glass, which must also be considered when creating the paintings. A product of the encounter between East and West, the manufacture of glass paintings in China was stimulated by European glass paintings brought to the imperial court by traders and diplomats in the seventeenth century. Initially made in Canton for Western consumers, by the eighteenth century their production had spread throughout China, with subjects and styles adapted to suit local tastes. The glass paintings in the Mei Lin Collection represent this later floweri

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.

Relationship maintenance encompasses a wide range of activities that partners use to preserve their relationships. Despite the importance of these efforts, considerably more empirical focus has been devoted to starting (i.e. initiation) and ending (i.e. dissolution) relationships than on maintaining them. In this volume, internationally renowned scholars from a variety of disciplines describe diverse sets of relationship maintenance efforts in order to show why some relationships endure, whereas others falter. By focusing on 'what to do' rather than 'what not to do' in relationships, this book paints a more comprehensive picture of the forms, functions, and contexts of relationship maintenance. It is essential reading for scholars and students in psychology, communication, human development and family science, sociology, and couple/marriage and family therapy.
