At the end of the year, there is always a sense of gap between the past and the future. "The legacy left to us has no last words," said the French poet René Charles in "The Sleeping Awakening". Hannah Arendt warns us that between the past and the "long-deceased" past personnel an

Japanese word concept has a profound influence on the spread of modern Chinese history. The cultural complexity between China and Japan has led to the dissemination, interaction and sharing relationship between Chinese and Japanese word concepts being interfered by various factors, so that later generations always spread rumors when talking about them. Chen Liwei specifically discusses this issue in this book. When comparing the inclusion of newspapers, magazines and dictionaries published in China and Japan in modern times, Chen Liwei also reviewed the social thoughts behind the concept, and retraceed the social ideological changes in modern China and Japan and the interactive history of East Asian culture. In particular, the etymology of key words in modern history was verified, and the evolution of word concepts under social changes was sorted out; the translation history of new modern vocabulary was also verified, allowing us to re-understand the two-way interaction between cultural input and output in modern history, which is of great value for understanding the ideological and cultural history of modern China and Japan.

"Chuangzhen Pimang: Institute of Modern History and Development of Historiography"

Author: Zhao Qingyun

Version: Social Sciences Documentation Press

2019.4

The Institute of Modern History is in line with the Yan'an Historical Institution. It is also the first national-level historical institution after the founding of New China, and has a profound influence at home and abroad. This book focuses on digging out relevant historical materials, transcending the simple research of historical texts, returning to the time and space context at that time, sorting out the origins of modern history institutes, combining scholars' "learning" with their "actions" to examine them, presenting scholars' actual actions between politics and academics, and showing the complex form of historical development in the "seventeen years", and on this basis, we can observe the reasons for their gains and losses. The "Seventeen Years" historiography can be regarded as one of the sources of contemporary Chinese historiography itself, and its influence is quite far-reaching, but we still lack a specific and in-depth understanding of the "Seventeen Years" historiography. "Chuang Zhen Pi Mang" starts from the historical institution with a typical significance of the Institute of Modern History, Chinese Academy of Sciences, to explore the specific situation of the development of historiography in the "Seventeen Years".

"The conflict between Pakistan and Israel is qualified to be called the most carefully studied issue on the earth." Few regions occupy newspaper headlines from time to time like Palestine-Israel, and become the focus of international attention. Both sides of the conflict have their own reasons and their own stories to tell. Ian Black tried to tell the history of this conflict in an impossible way, no longer from one side's perspective, but from both sides' perspectives, the stories of both sides and their fate entanglements. He tried to open his eyes to the Israelis, see the Palestinian poverty, distress and humiliation, and the disturbance of life by violence. He also tried to make the Palestinians face the sorrow and anger of the Jews, and heard the joy of public celebrations after the Palestinian suicide bomb attack, and the gripping of neighbors gritted teeth. We often say that the premise of reconciliation is dialogue. The premise of dialogue may be to make the other party listen to what each other says.

"The Internet of Humanities: Reading, Writing and Knowledge in the Digital Age"

Author: Xu Ben

Version: Peking University Press

2019.7

Reading and writing were once noble behaviors that belonged to the minority of cultural and power elites. After entering the Internet era, the threshold for reading and writing has been reduced unprecedentedly, becoming an action that everyone can do. The democratization of reading is accelerating the dissemination of knowledge and the popularization of civilization, but fragmented and shallow reading may lead to the damage of people's deep thinking ability. Xu Ben's book is a deep thought on the above issues. Traditional propositions such as reading, writing, knowledge, academic, and enlightenment have encountered new changes in the Internet era. The radical change in the humanistic environment not only challenges intellectuals to reinterpret society, but also puts forward new requirements for the daily response of each individual in it. The public's enlightenment education and democratization process need to be rethinked in this humanistic environment.

" Research on the Sinology Family of Qing Dynasty"

Author: Luo Jianqiu

Version: Zhonghua Book Company

2019.7

Research on the impact of clans on the daily lives of Chinese people has long been full of research, and family studies of academic families or literary groups are also everywhere, but the overall research on the influence of clans on the Sinology of Qing Dynasty is still weak, and research that is integrated from the macro perspective is even lacking. In the past decade, Luo Jianqiu has collected genealogy and scholars' notes from various places. He has conducted in-depth review and examination of the family education, family law connotation, academic methods, relationships between Han and Song dynasties and academic spirit of the Qing Dynasty. He studied the interaction and inheritance of family education and Sinology in the Qing Dynasty in multiple dimensions, and then carefully examined the family network genealogy and academic evolution of Sinology in the Qing Dynasty. The book not only presents the context and genealogy of modern and modern Chinese academic heritage, but also reflects the cultural picture of how China's social structure affects academic evolution, and promotes the historical research of sinology and family culture in the Qing Dynasty.

"The Battle of the Pathfinder: China's Economic Reform from 1978 to 1992"

Author: Xiao Donglian

The miracle of China's economic growth created by reform and opening up is eye-catching, but the "Chinese miracle" is not the same as the "Chinese model". And how to understand the emergence of miracles? As a historian, Xiao Donglian stood on the periphery and reviewed the more than ten years of reform history before the market economy was confirmed in 1992 from historical materials, trying to present the causes and consequences in a panoramic way. Although he did not pay attention to the relationship between economic system and economic growth like economists, he also gave a key judgment, that is, China's economic growth miracle is neither an unexpected result nor an inevitable result. He believes that the market-oriented transformation plan that was inseparable from the long-term limited rationality and "random walking" that year. The former has an institutional design, while the latter remains open.

"Trade Conflict: 200 Years of US Trade Policy"

Author: (US) Douglas Irving

Translator: Yu Jiang/Diao Linlin/Lu Yinli

Version: CITIC Publishing Group

2019.7

The four words "Trade Conflict" are usually well-known as news. News reports are instant and changeable, so trade conflicts leave people with the impression that they are trade frictions caused by different economies at once and place, and the reasons are unfathomable, and people even imagine the unspeakable "conspiracy" behind them. Indeed, an economy's foreign trade policy may be volatile and uncertain, after all, these policies will change due to changes in the surplus deficit, domestic economic or political environment. However, as long as we extend the time, we may have a different understanding. Even the United States has its own rules.

Economic historian Douglas Irving sorted out the US trade policy from the War of Independence, spanning more than two hundred years, and trade policy only changed at times such as the Civil War and the Great Depression. The centralized distribution of industries and the difficulty of passing federal legislation have made foreign trade policies maintain their original state. His economic history analysis brings people's vision back to history. Today, when trade conflicts have become hot topics, it makes those who are keen on speculation or imagination lose the legitimacy of knowledge. Understanding an economy’s trade policy is inseparable from the more hidden and longer history behind it.

"Concepts and Systems: Exploring the Intrinsic Mechanisms of the Operation of Social Systems"

Author: Fang Qin

Version: Commercial Press

2019.6

Economics has assumptions that more people agree on. Even if it cannot be said to be a consensus, it is not as accepted as natural sciences, but it is still far better than other social science disciplines, and this means higher falsification. However, it is this characteristic that makes economic research diverge. In addition to "rational people", whether cultural factors such as belief, aesthetics and preferences are affecting a person's behavior cannot be summarized by formulas or models. Some people bring the beauty of form to the extreme, and formulas and models are becoming more and more refined and fashionable. Some reject the accumulation of economic research and refuse to pursue any calculation or quantification. Young economist Fang Qin disagreed with both research methods. He used the word "concept" to express the content of culture and thus discussed how it affects the generation and operation of the system.

"Government System and Market: Draft on Social and Economic History of Ming and Qing Dynasties"

Author: Liu Zhiwei

Liu Zhiwei believes that "food goods" is not just the national fiscal economy, but a national economic system and even the type of economic system. "Treasures" and "markets" are logically incompatible with each other, one are the bottom-up fiscal annual entry system, and the other are the circulation and trading systems of scarce resources. However, in a unified dynasty country, the territory is vast and the production and demand of tributes are diverse. It requires long-distance operation, and different tributes are also required to exchange items with each other. These factors determine that the upward collection and allocation of resources cannot be achieved by relying solely on dynasty power, and the market also needs to provide exchange, circulation and monetary accounting mechanisms. Liu Zhiwei also believed that the "food goods" economy is not controlled by the state, but the dynasty countries promote and use the market.

"Why is justice difficult to do: the psychological source that hinders justice"

Author: (US) Adam Benforardo

Translator: Liu Jingkun

Version: Mai Du MyRead | China Democratic and Legal Publishing House

2019.3

Judicial system is usually considered to be the decisive factor in whether a judicial trial is just. However, there have always been a relatively negative attitude in the legal community. Adam Ben Forardo is one of them. He took American justice as the object of thinking and proposed that even if it was considered relatively perfect, from police inquiries, lawyer defenses, witness memories to jurors' opinions, and then to judges' trials, it is impossible to guarantee that it will not be affected by psychological weaknesses to produce bias. He believes that overcoming prejudice requires systems and technology. For example, virtual trials can not only prevent gender, skin color and other factors from entering the trial, but also avoid discomfort of victims facing the suspect in criminal cases. He also took a step back and admitted that the court was only forced to be fair after the fact, and that the realization of justice was first to reduce tragic cases through systems, environment and technology.

"From Industrialization to Urbanization: A Feasible Path to Economic Growth in the Next 30 Years"

Author: Xu Yuan

Version: CITIC Publishing Group

2019.10

This process from industrialization to urbanization lasted for twenty years. Many years later, why did Xu Yuan, as an economist, still name the book "From Industrialization to Urbanization"?

Urbanization includes land development, urbanization construction, and human urbanization, and human urbanization is the most basic content. This is Xu Yuan’s basis for argument. From this perspective, "industrialization" refers to leaving the countryside and going to the factory to work and work, while "urbanization" refers to leaving the factory, taking children and the elderly in the city, and becoming citizens. Based on this, Xu Yuan believes that "entering the factory" has created China's economic growth miracle, which is faster than urbanization, and the next path of economic growth requires more people to "become citizens".

"Conservative Thought: From Burke to Elliott"

Author: (US) Russell Kirk

Translator: Zhang Dajun

Version: Sunshine of Han and Tang Dynasties | Jiangsu Phoenix Literature and Art Publishing House

2019.5

What is conservatism? This question seems vague compared to liberalism and radicalism. Conservative Thought is a book known as "giving conservatism with identity."Russell Kirk attempts to define "conservative" and "conservative" in his book. He traces the source of conservativeism, clarifies its basic norms, clarifies the ideological genealogy of conservatism, and draws a complete picture of history and theory for conservatism. Therefore, this book is one of the greatest contributions to American conservatism in the 20th century and opened up the modern American conservatism movement. If we want to understand the conservatism of the United States and the spirit behind it, this book is an unavoidable work. In it, we can observe the rheology of conservative thought in Britain and the United States. You can also get a glimpse of the competition among the three major thoughts of conservatism, radicalism and liberalism, and understand the ideological changes in Western society from a macro perspective.

"Stranded Heart"

Author: (US) Mark Lila

Translator: Tang Yingqi

Version: Sanhui Books | Commercial Press

2019.9

Writes on "revolution" are often eye-catching, but there are very few research and discussions involving "reactionary". But in fact, political nostalgia, as a magical way of thinking in history, deeply shaped the imagination of political thinkers and the ideological changes in the 20th century, and continues to attract fans around the world in the 21st century. "The Stranded Mind" by Mark Lila, a famous American political scientist and historian of thought, focuses on the "reactionary" concepts and ideological movements since the 20th century. As one of the most influential intellectuals in the United States, Lila is good at using solid Western classical knowledge to see through current political thoughts. For the public readers, Lila's vivid and profound narrative makes it easy to understand both the historical background and the complex situation of the present. It can be said that if a person does not understand how the political nostalgia of reactionaries has shaped modern history, it will be difficult to understand modern history itself and the present.

"The Chronicle of the Sinking of the Spirit: A Review of Mark Lira's "The Stranded Mind""

Author: Lin Guohua

"The Chronicle of the Sinking of the Spirit" is the preface written by the political philosopher scholar Lin Guohua in the Chinese version of "The Stranded Mind" by Mark Lira. Although this long preface of about 100,000 words is closely related to "The Stranded Mind", it ultimately transcends the intertextual relationship with the original book and opens up a clear and unique ideological historical context. Compared with Lira's more popular writing, Lin Guohua's writing language and structure are more academic, which can also enhance our understanding and grasp of the history of Western thought. This book uses the psychic tradition and its evolution as clues to reveal the complex interaction between the canon order and the negative canon heresy in the history of Western thought, and explores the key role of Jewish issues in reactionary concepts, and why the radical left and radical right intersect in the reactionary cause.

Translator: Zhao Haifeng

Version: New Classic Culture | Nanhai Publishing Company

2019.3

Nowadays, there are more and more popular reading materials for the public. Although the levels vary, they often emphasize one thing, "It turns out that philosophy is so fun." The philosophical comic book "Heredom" has really achieved this. The style of painting is stupid and cute, the language is a bit cold and humorous, and the translation has a sense of context and language like today's Chinese. Descartes , Galileo , Newton, Locke , Hobbs have their own comic image, and the battle situation of meeting and debating each other is like a play. Nadler and his son, the author of Heresy, are philosophers who study 17th-century philosophy, and the other are painters and cartoonists. The philosophical clues of this book start with the burning of Bruno in Rome in 1600. They traveled to Paris in 1646, Cambridge in 1650, The Hague in 1670, and Hannover in 1686, outlining the major changes in our cognitive system by different ideological heretics.

Translator: Li Gang/Zou Jingya et al.

Version: Nanjing University Press

2019.1

How does the US ideological market work? What changes have been experienced? This book’s observation of the American ideological industry provides us with a good historical context. Traditional public intellectuals once played an important role in the United States. They like to speak in some highly prestigious political commentary magazines and influence politics. But now public intellectuals are declining, and they are replaced by thought leaders. Thought leaders are “knowledge stars” who repeatedly sell certain ideas to their audiences and operate themselves according to the logic of the Internet. Why does this change occur? "The Industry of Thought" provides us with a perspective. As an international political science scholar who entered the ideological industry, the author Dresne analyzed the causes of this change with his own personal experience and observation and made profound reflections.

"Looking for Asia: Creating Another Way to Understand the World"

Author: Sun Ge

Version: One Page folio | Guizhou People's Publishing House

2019.10

In "Looking for Asia", Sun Ge broke through the fixed thinking inertia inertia in a very speculative way to think about Asian issues. The Asia that Sun Ge is looking for is not something that Asia lost during the colonial invasion, but a category that can be established. Because Asia has diversity that cannot be integrated, how to support itself as an independent discourse category has become a theoretical question first. Sun Ge pointed out in the book that this requires us to think thoroughly from an epistemological perspective. As Asia has entered the historical stage in various forms, Asia is no longer a vulnerable region without sound, so can Asia have its own principles? Why look for Asia? Sun Ge tried to find another way to understand the world. Because looking for Asia is also looking for a truly diverse epistemology. This also reflects the intellectuals' deep concern and responsibility for reality.

"Webber and Marx: Hegel and the Gender of Philosophy"

Author: (Germany) Karl Lovett

Translator: Liu Xinzhou

Version: Sanhui Books | Nanjing University Press

2019.9

"For mankind" is the basic proposition after mankind opens the door to modern times. What is "people"? Hegel is one of the openers of this door, and he believes more in human spirit than in human nature. As successors, Marx and Weber successively hope to save "humanity". In addition to the spiritual identity of company employees, bourgeois or national citizenship, they also need to discuss all the content about "humanity". This is a common issue between the two and the conditions for the author to compare them. Marx diagnosed capitalism and proposed that the relationship between people and people has been "alienated" and hopes to change the world through intervention. Weber believes that capitalism is just a special way in the inevitable process of rationalization. His central issue is the "rationalization" behind it. "People" are therefore free and therefore bound. He diagnoses this but does not intervene. This book is a model work of the history of thought in the 20th century. The book compares the two in theory and the discussion on the evolution of "people" since Hegel. Although the length is not long, the content is like a masterpiece.

"The Shadow of Monotheism: Communication between Philosophers and Anthropologists"

Author: Zhao Tingyang/(France) Alan Lebixiong

Translator: Wang Huimin

Version: CITIC Publishing Group | CITIC · Dafang

2019.3

This communication collection touches on the key propositions of Eastern and Western cultures, religions and philosophy among many contradictions. Philosopher Zhao Tingyang and his old friend Alan Lebixiong, one is a pantheist and the other is a Catholic. The two met frankly at the beginning of their correspondence. Unitism is the starting point for them to embark on cross-cultural debate. The "monotheism" belief in the only god is deeply rooted in Western thought. It is now promoted as a thinking mode for understanding everything, and it runs through the concepts of "natural" legitimacy, such as individualism, subjectivity, democracy, and natural human rights today.As Zhao Tingyang said, "Real cross-cultural debates always go deep into the bottom of the ideological level, revealing the differences between the two sides in religious beliefs and theological concepts." This collection of letters not only achieves a warm confrontation, but also does not feel intimate from daily dialogue.

"Differences and Repetitions"

Author: (France) Gill Deleuze

Translator: An Jing/Zhang Ziyue

Version: Six Points Books | East China Normal University Press

2019.6

In the view of Gill Deleuze, one of the most important French philosophers in the 20th century, a philosophy book should be a unique mystery novel and science fiction novel. "Difference and Repetition" is one of Deleuze's most important works, which thoroughly criticizes the Western metaphysical tradition since Plato , and is written for other philosophers rather than ordinary readers. Deleuze created a large number of concepts, trying to systematically organize his own views, with the core concepts being pure differences and profound repetition. Modern life is facing the most mechanical and stereotyped repetitions, and we constantly extract slight differences, changes and deformations from them. "Differences and Repetition" has a complex ideological resources, and has in-depth analysis of the thoughts of many philosophers and also discussed various disciplines. This obscure and quirky work is a classic of contemporary philosophy.

"Research on the Popular Belief in England in the 16th and 17th Century"

Author: (English) Keith Thomas

Translator: Rui Chuanming/Mei Jianhua

Version: Yilin Publishing House

2019.8

The era of ignorance fighting against the people of the Light and Ming Dynasty is the general impression of the medieval era moving towards modern 16th and 17th centuries. This book depicts the undercurrent under this wave of change. In this battle, there was no winner at all, and religion and superstition had no choice but to decline. The reason is not, as we think, that the glory of scientific reason has dispelled the haze of religion and witchcraft, but the collapse of the authority that dominates everything. Religion absorbs the popular belief that it denounces as "superstitious" and serves to build its unique authority. The essence of popular belief is not hiding from absolute authority. Whether it is divination, astrology or witchcraft, it is a set of methods surrounding self-formation, which means that one's own destiny can be changed in some way. This belief of "self-helping God helps" ultimately wiped out the authority of religion, saved personal self-confidence from superstition, and ultimately made our time today.

Version: Oriental Publishing House

2019.3

Gao Lin's "Emperor's Waltz" has opened up subtle sections for 19th century Europe with elegant and calm brushstrokes. The genius literati, innocent and enthusiastic revolutionaries, cunning politicians and ambitious rulers are all flesh and blood organs of this era. Although this book is just a popular book showing slices of history compared to those voluminous high-end sermon-like historical masterpieces, it properly captures a unique atmosphere of "disappearance" in that era: Once upon a time, people of that era believed that the melody would continue to be played and the dance would continue to dance until the end of time. But all this came to an abrupt end in the war disaster in 1913, but the elegant dance music echoed in the readers' ears through this book.

2019.3

Researchers of the French Revolution often encounter some seemingly contradictory problems, which drag the revolution into a maze, and violence seems to have become the original sin that the revolution cannot escape. Is there really a curse of violent revolution? Tan Xuan, this book that studies the French revolutionary terrorist politics, explores the origin of revolutionary violence ultimately leading to terrorist politics through meticulous research. The French Revolution itself began with a contradiction. In the tearing of contradictions, revolution was like a fierce horse without reins. People no longer controlled the revolution, but revolution was controlling people. The ever-changing revolutionary situation eventually made this fierce horse obsessed with eliminating the enemy of the revolution in order to defend the revolution.Under this crisis, the original goal of the revolution, the establishment of a new society, was gradually forgotten in the midst of fanaticism and doubt, and the revolution itself became the only goal of the revolution. Just like Tan Xuan's unforgettable aphorism: "In fact, it is likely to be difficult to start a revolution."

It revolves around the donation, construction, maintenance, residence and worship of temples, depicts the living conditions, religious beliefs, as well as economic development and power structure changes from the royal family, bureaucrats, merchants, gentry to ordinary citizens and tourists.

He made an extremely solid and rigorous sorting, and collages readers a panoramic picture of Beijing in the 500 years of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Faced with the drastic changes in the times after the Opium War, scholars need to find their own way of response. For a long time, the study of this period of Western learning has emphasized the perspective of the history of thought. Although the carrier of thought is people and the carrier of spreading thoughts is books, the interactive relationship between books is precisely what is most often overlooked. How does one book enter the reader's horizon, and why does the reader choose this book over another? What is the reader’s reading experience? Pan Guangzhe's book tells the story of this person and the book. To this end, he created a brand new concept "knowledge warehouse". Attempts to build a new reading order in the warehouse.

Author: Yuge

Version: Han and Tang Sunshine丨Shanxi People's Publishing House

2019.1

Radical and gradual, revolution and improvement, national salvation and enlightenment are the most important pairs of keywords to interpret modern Chinese history. Since the 1990s, the fierce criticism of radicalism has become the mainstream of academic circles, and we can see the future to criticize the radical and reckless actions of historical parties.

In Yu Ge's view, the reform of 1898, two Jiazi ago was the "first political movement directed by radical thought in modern Chinese history." He abandoned the narrative method of previous researchers using events as clues, and instead started from the characters to deeply analyze the political stance, knowledge structure, interest demands, and temperament characteristics of reformers and conservatives. These factors influenced their choices in history. This is a radical research work by scholars who are gradual-based.

"The Emperor's Four Library: Scholars and the Country in the Late Qianlong Period"

Author: (US) Gai Bojian

Translator: Zheng Yunyan

Without Emperor Qianlong's intention, it would be difficult for any individual to achieve a voluminous masterpiece like the Siku Complete Book. This work by Gai Bojian reveals the subtle interaction between Emperor Qianlong and scholars, politics and academics in the "Golden Age of Culture and Power" of Emperor Qianlong during the Qianlong era. Through this national giant book compilation project, Emperor Qianlong and scholars did their best and took their own needs. But this does not mean that the cooperation between the two is so intimate. This ultimately led to mixed reviews and criticisms of Siku Quanshu in later generations: This national cultural project that devotes itself to the preservation of books from generation to generation is indeed the largest series of books in China, but almost no books were passed down from Siku, and many books were lost forever because of it.

Translator: Xu Jialing

Byzantine Empire, the third option outside the Middle Ages. For historians, it is a rich mine. It is difficult to sort out this mixed imperial music, which consists of a bunch of messy notes, into a symphony with smooth melody.

What A.A. Vasilev, the author of the book, did is such a nearly impossible task. Although he humbly used this nearly a thousand pages of masterpiece as a teaching material for university teaching, its completeness and the author's continuous revisions over the years have made it almost an encyclopedia of the Byzantine Empire. In terms of information citations, not only did they salvage documents from the Byzantine Empire with exhaustive momentum, but also included historical materials from European, Syrian and Arab authors. The diverse perspectives are breathtaking.

Author: Xin Deyong

If the author Xin Deyong declares it true in the afterword, the cause of this book is a "ghost book" he bought in the scorching sun in the midsummer of July - the Western Han Dynasty bamboo slips dug out from the ancient tomb pit 2,000 years ago " Zhao Zhengshu ". The most fascinating thing about this historical material telling the life of Qin Shihuang is the devilish details.By pursuing these details, Xin Deyong tried to salvage an image from the abyss of history that was completely different from the Qin Shihuang we are familiar with. The history that we are already very familiar with is questioned in this book, and the popular prejudices that have been popular for thousands of years are analyzed under a microscope, and the thought-provoking historical implications are discovered from the details.

"The Game of Modern Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine: History of Antibacterials in Traditional Chinese Medicine"

Author: Pi Guoli

Looking at the reality, we have to admit that diseases caused by exogenous bacteria have long rejected traditional Chinese medicine from the battlefield, and modern medicine dominates the world. However, traditional Chinese medicine can still stand on par with Western medicine in contemporary times and become a medical system recognized by the state, which is worth pondering.

So, how did traditional Chinese medicine get to this point today? Today, when modern medicine has occupied an absolute dominance, how does traditional Chinese medicine still occupy an unshakable position in China? Pi Guoli's book captures a key detail, which is the understanding of antibacterialism. In the 20th century, with the development of bacteriology, the main battlefield of conflict between Chinese and Western medicine turned to antibacterials. Constantly self-judgment and review, constant transplantation and change of concepts, coupled with the promotion of nationalist emotions and adaptation to the times, Chinese medicine successfully survived on the home stage of modern medicine.

"History of Chen Yinke" (reprinted)

Author: Zhang Qiuhui

Zhang Qiuhui has been committed to the research of the Chen family for nearly 20 years. He has learned all the historical materials of the Chen family. He never makes arbitrary decisions about writing articles and arguments. Almost every sentence comes from the empirical evidence of historical materials. Therefore, this book can be called a "good work of reliable history and a strange composition of footnotes". The essence of the book lies in the proofreading and correction of footnote content. The footnotes and the main text are almost in a "confrontation" trend. Some footnotes are more exciting than the main text. Some footnotes can be independently written: there are both double multiple citations, and there are also two and three severity tests. Or there are many errors in others' mistakes, authenticity of text, and rumors of the times. Many footnotes can be regarded as false news and broadcast tests, and some footnotes even fully present the process of historical materials proofreading and reviewing and identifying them. If others find it carefully or discover other people's historical materials, they will be named one by one, and will never rob the beauty. It is truly a gentleman's style.

"Laughter in Troubled Times: Research on Comedy Literature in Shanghai in the 1940s"

Author: Zhang Jian

In the 1940s, Shanghai, the isolated island surrounded by war, and the dark and depressing stage in the occupied area, bursts of laughter actually came out. What exactly does this laugh mean?

This laughter comes from newspaper columns, from novels published, and from dramas on stage. And their creators were all popular writers and literati at that time. Ping Jinya, Li Jianwu , Zhang Ailing and others waved the pen and ink in their hands, pouring laughter into the lines, either sarcasm or teasing. From ancient sages to legendary celebrities, they all put on funny clothes for them, making people laugh or laugh loudly. Compared with those anti-Japanese war literature that were attracted by later researchers, these jokes and funny words are certainly difficult to be elegant, but the author of this book, Zhang Jian, has focused his attention on these comedy literatures that were more popular at the time, and discovered the other side of the wartime world. Although laughter in troubled times is a joy in pain and a joy in laughter, it does not make people escape from reality by laughter and blindly optimistic, but rather find a winding path for people who are suppressed under the high-pressure tyranny in the occupied areas to vent. The creators of laughter made people willing to believe that the tyranny of the war era was nothing more than the emperor's new clothes. The laughter dissolves fear, uses irony to expose the absurdity of authority, re-adhesive life that has been destroyed by war with optimism, and also brings people hope to continue their lives.

"Visible Justice" (reprinted)

Author: Chen Ruihua

Version: Law Publishing House

2019.5

Chen Ruihua, like many of his colleagues in legal scholars, regards "procedural justice" as the most important part of judicial justice. Without procedural justice, justice may be achieved by chance or partly. If you focus on judicial results, it does not mean that it cannot be achieved, but that it cannot guarantee continuous implementation. In "Visible Justice", he explains the importance of "procedure" through judicial aphorisms such as "late justice is injustice" and common sense. His concise and popular writing style makes the book unique. "Visible Justice" was previously published by China Legal Publishing House (2000) and Peking University Press (2013). As before, Chen Ruihua revised the third edition based on recent judicial cases and judicial discussions.

"Berlin"

Author: (Add) Ye Liting

Translator: Luo Yanli

This year marks the 110th anniversary of Isaiah Berlin's birth. Since the first Chinese translation was published in 2001, no Western thinker has received continuous attention from the Chinese intellectual community and ordinary readers like Berlin. At the same time, Berlin may also be the 20th century thinker who was misunderstood by Chinese readers. Berlin, written by Ye Liting, is not only a liberal fighter labeled by the public, but also a firm value pluralist, historian of cross-cultural concepts, and a witness to the war and catastrophe of the 20th century. The biography also records the interaction between Berlin, who loves communication, and outlines a group portrait of the 20th century ideological master.
