本著作以引導聲部加上對位法則作為研究方法之基礎，將確認調進行 (key-defining progression) 及一對一對位的二聲部的聲部結構(voice structure)結合，從而延伸為三聲部或四聲部的引導聲部織體，以此作為線條流動方向及 agogic progression 的依據。具體將 Palestrina-Fux-Bach 的傳承，化為 agogic progression 在詮釋與表達的理論基礎，將傳統 agogic 在個別音符的流動擴展為三到四聲部的線條流動的 agogic progression 。硏究取向以和弦擴充(chord prolongation)及和聲進行為基底， agogic progression 發展出以聲部結構為經，確認調進行為緯，專注在三或四聲部的聖詠曲織體，成功地將個別音符的 agogic 延伸為流動的多聲音片 agogic progression。Tonal music is an art language with highly civilized products. As an art form, the vocabularies, syntax and techniques are integrated as one to portray the vast varieties of music emotion.Agogic is exactly such term used to describe human feeling and emotion. It not only describes degrees of speed, but also refers to the character of a composition. Since, the variety of agogic terms appearing on scores to describe all shades of human feeling and emotion.Music theory teaching should not be detached from human sentiment. Agogic, to author's view, is embedded in harmonic progression. She propo

This book offers a fresh English interpretation of the ancient channels in Chinese medicine, drawing from some of its most authoritative historical texts. It focuses on the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon (Huáng Dì Nèi Jīng), written between 200–300 BCE and widely regarded as the cornerstone of modern Chinese medicine. By examining this revered text, the book provides a unique perspective on how the channels were originally conceptualized and how they have evolved over time. In addition to exploring the channels outlined in the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon, the book offers a comparative analysis of ancient and modern interpretations, illuminating their continuity and transformation. It brings the earliest documented descriptions of these channels to life, offering readers a rare glimpse into the roots of Chinese medical theory. The book provides an in-depth examination of the Eight Extraordinary Vessels, moving beyond their brief mentions in the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon.

一步步掌握 Spring Boot 的用法， 建立 Java 後端工程師必備的技術能力！ 【書籍簡介】 本書內容改編自第 15 屆 iThome 鐵人賽 Software Development 組的優選系列文章《Spring Boot 零基礎入門》。在現今 Java 的工作中，Spring Boot 這項技術已經是不可或缺的一部分，打開各大徵才網一看，大部分的 Java 工程師職缺都會要求求職者有使用過 Spring Boot 的經驗，甚至已經到了「不會 Spring、不談就業」的程度，因此學習 Spring Boot 已經是成為 Java 工程師的必備條件。 但是 Spring Boot 中所包含的技術非常多，對於剛入門的人來說，要從哪裡開始學起會是一個大問題，並且網路上的資料比較零碎，用東拼西湊的學習方式，也很難能夠真正的了解 Spring Boot 中的特性。 因此本書的目標在於幫助沒接觸過（甚至沒聽過）Spring Boot 的人，了解 Spring Boot 到底是什麼，並且能夠運用 Spring Boot 搭建一個簡易的後端系統。如果你打從心底想要從頭開始學習Spring Boot、或是你想了解業界目前最流行的 Spring Boot 的用法，那就跟著這本書一起，從零開始入門 Spring Boot 吧！ 【目標讀者】 ❏ 想學習 Spring Boot，但不知道從何入門 ❏ 看過 Spring Boot 的相關介紹，但不了解實際要如何運用 【閱讀完本書之後，你可以學到】 ❏ 了解什麼是 Spring Boot，以及如何運用 IntelliJ 這套軟體開發 Spring Boot 程式 ❏ 了解 Spring 框架的兩大特性 - IoC 和 AOP ❏ 了解 Spring MVC、Spring JDBC 的基本用法 ❏ 能夠運用 Spring Boot，實作出一個簡易的後端系統 【閱讀本書前，需具備的前置知識】 閱讀本書前，必須具備「Java 程式語言」和「MySQL 資料庫設計」的知識。 其中 Java 需要了解基本 Java 的語法，並且至少要知道「多型（polymorphism）」的概念，而 MySQL 則需要了解基本的 SQL 語法（Select、Update、Insert、Delete）的用法。 另外 Mac / Windows 皆可閱讀本書

No sound, no problem！（掩耳盜鈴） Groundless worries （杞人憂天） There are hundreds more of these Chinese idioms (chengyu) that pack a lot of meaning into four characters。 Many of these Chinese idioms originate from historical events，classics，and folklore； they give us valuable insights into Chinese culture，history，and literature。 Aimed at English learners，The Magic Four groups together some of these well-known stories with attitude and behaviour as its theme。 Each story is accompanied with extra learning elements： • The literal and figurative meanings； • A similar idiom/phrase in the English language； • Definitions of useful vocabularies in the story； • Meanings of different idioms/phrases used in the stories and examples。 Not only will you gain insight into Chinese wisdom accumulated for centuries but also learn fun aspects of the English language too！

FOREWORDAt the beginning of 2024, I was invited to contribute to a project focused on women who engage in futures thinking and foresight. As a cornerstone of the project, a seminarwas planned to celebrateInternational Women’s Day. In preparation for the event, a vibrant exchange unfolded in a WhatsApp group. Participants, including myself, posed questions, suggested sessions, and explored shared concerns and interests. The following were some of the questions raised:• Why do so many people, who agree with the principles of feminism, hesitate to identify themselves as feminists?• What does feminism signify in 2024?• How should we define it?• Can individuals of genders other than women be feminists?• Is feminism still relevant, or is it considered passé?• Does the concept of feminism require rebranding?• Should we discuss feminism in the singular or feminismS in the plural?• Are we now closer to achieving the central feminist vision of an equitable

甜美的愛文的天鵝！一道多麼亮麗的景致照見你在水波上現身，在泰晤士河岸翻飛……──本．瓊生　Sweet Swan of Avon! what a sight it wereTo see thee in our waters yet appear,And make those flights upon the banks of Thames...— Ben Jonson 「知人論世」是重要的文學鑑賞方法。傅正明的新作《愛文的天鵝：誰是真正的莎士比亞？德維爾筆名背後的秘辛》，在歐洲文藝復興時期多種文化背景中，力求多角度評論偉大劇作家和詩人威廉．莎士比亞的歷史意義及其屬於一切時代的現實意義。在莎士比亞著作權的爭議中，著者推重「牛津派」（The Oxfordian theory），即以愛德華．德維爾，十七世牛津伯爵（Edward de Vere，17th Earl of Oxford）為莎士比亞全部作品的真實作者。除了引證德維爾的傳記史料和早期作品以外，本書作者兼用美學、政治、文化和宗教的鑰匙和佛學禪宗的視角來解讀莎士比亞之謎，分析滲透在莎劇和詩歌中以天鵝為象徵的「愛」（love）的多義性及其精神昇華。 本書是中文領域第一本簡明德維爾文學評傳和莎士比亞作品的學術研究專著。　About the Book The explication of “understanding the authors and discussing their times” is an important method of literary criticism.

看《大偵探福爾摩斯》英文版，增強你的英文能力！THE GREAT DETECTIVE SHERLOCK HOLMES #21 Murder on the Express TrainA double gunshot murder had happened in the same first class train car that Holmes and Watson were riding in. The victims were an old couple in compartment no.2, and inside the same compartment was a young woman so terrified that her face was drained of colour. Initial investigation revealed that compartments no.3 and no.4 were empty, and compartment no.1 had four male passengers while an elderly mother and her two daughters were seated in compartment no.6. The strangest thing was that a wedge had obstructed the sliding door to compartment no.2, the crime scene, but it had left a one-inch gap opening. Coincidentally, the sliding door to compartment no.1 was also stuck closed. The door obstructions meant that the killer could not be someone seated inside compartment no.2 or compartment no.1. However, a number of clues seemed to indicate that the killer’s accomplice was hiding amongst that gro
