Buildings create an environment where people work and live, thus affecting their quality of life. In Hong Kong, as in other major metropolitan cities, buildings define its city image and are the hub o

李歐梵用「蒼涼」和「世故」來形容張愛玲。此書是李歐梵特別為香港的「張迷」而寫，以「蒼涼與世故」為題，英文可譯為是Desolation and Sophistication，前者是張愛玲自己的美學觀念，後者是作者對張愛玲的看法。我不喜歡壯烈，我是喜歡悲壯，更喜歡蒼涼。壯烈只有力，沒有美，似乎缺少人性。悲壯則如大紅大綠的配色，是一種強烈的對照。但它的刺激性還是大於啟發性。蒼涼之所以有更深長的回味，就因為它像葱綠配桃紅，是一種參差的對照。—— 張愛玲〈自己的文章〉

杜甫一生的虛構自傳一個穿越了多個時代、多場戰火、多種語言的杜甫，帶著他的多重身影重返我們的生活現場。— 西川「世界偉大的隨筆家之一 」——《紐約時報》「一位隱蔽的文學領袖」My favorite essayist is Eliot Weinberger.His remarkable breadth of calm concern is impressive.—Gary Snyder (Pulitzer Prize Winner, 1975)­This is a book concerned with mortality, friendship, and regret.­The psyche looking back at its life. As such, The Life of Tu Fu sometimes feels like a poetic biography of my own life, or maybe yours.—Forrest Gander (Pulitzer Prize Winner, 2019)溫伯格巧妙地運用拼貼手法，從杜甫一千多首浩瀚的詩歌中擷取靈感，將其詩句、意象與情感重新編織成五十八首全新的詩篇。這些詩篇猶如一幅幅流動的畫卷，描繪出杜甫顛沛流離的一生，以及他所經歷的戰亂與瘟疫。儘管時空相隔千年，但在後疫情時代，我們或許更能體會杜甫詩歌中那種深刻的孤獨與蒼涼。這部作品不僅是對杜甫一生的致敬，也是對我們自身、對苦難和對人生短暫易逝的反思。Drawing inspirations from a vast oeuvre of more than a thousand poems, Eliot Weinberger has deftly composed a montage of ­fifty-eight poems derived and adapted from the lines, images, and feelings in Tu Fu’s poetry. These poems weave a tapestry of Tu Fu’s turbulent life and times of war and disaster.In the post-pandemic era, we may appreciat

My Mum Called Alzheimer’s is a heartfelt memoir chronicling the author’s journey through her mother’s battle with dementia in the final 4 years of her life. In a diary of intimate dialogues between mother and daughter, we glimpse into the challenges of caring for someone you love, coming to terms with losing them, and finding strength in cherishing the moments that remain. The touching account of the interaction between the author and her mother sends a strong message about keeping a balance, maintaining dignity whilst coping with the effects of the symptoms of dementia and the need to make the best of what we still have. It is a story of love, resilience, perseverance, and hope.

本書分語言研究篇和課堂實踐篇兩大部分。前者重點是與語言教學密切相關的語言學研究，此部分論文的作者從宏觀的角度提出自己對華語習得的一些研究課題的看法，包括語音、語義與辭彙、語用、語料的難度劃分和書面語變體等。後者各章的共同特點是有多年教學經驗的教師從自己的教學實踐出發，與讀者分享在對外漢語教學，包括粵語教學的一得之見。所有文章，剛入行的新兵讀起來當然受益匪淺，對有經驗的教師來說也不乏啟迪。

自二十世紀八十年代起，"中日韓電影" 逐漸成為一個舉世矚目的 "標籤"。偶然，它又會換上 "東亞電影" 的外衣，馳騁於五湖四海。這個不成文的 "共同體" 已成為探討東亞歷史、文化和社會現狀的重要素材。中日韓電影是各地文化的一面鏡子，反映著當地人民有別於他人的歷史記憶和感情印記。有見及此，本書希望透過深入的研究及辯證，探討中日韓電影各自的本土特質。特別是通過分析各地電影人對暴力、愛情、兩性和世代交替

有關商人與政權關係、商人參政研究，中外成果甚多，但能以商會、商人團體作個案來討論的，還不多見。清末中國因施行商法，商人地位被肯定，有學者認為由於商人支持辛亥革命，辛亥革命成功，亦等於中國資產階級 (bourgeoisie) 革命成功，這說法是值得商榷的。過去學者對中國商人「階級化」和硬套「資產階級」之標籤，也是不對的。有關商人的代表性、政治地位等問題，最引人注意的，莫過於對市民社會 (civil

中國商會的起源與清末中國頒布商法關係密切，商會網絡出現的原因在於連結不同地域、行業、族群之間的商會。中國的商會從清末起已形成細密的網絡系統，足見商人的高度組織能力，與有管理學家批評中國人只「強於關係」而「弱於組織」顯然不符。本書共收論文八篇，書末附有〈香港及海外華商會、華商團體史研究文獻目錄〉近二百條。本書討論的對象，主要為商人和商會網絡，另論及商會所發揮的社會功能，都以不同的商會為研究個案。本書
