A true story of how a gentleman of a certain age and of respectable appearance was swallowed alive by the crocodile in the Arcade, and of the consequences that followed.

Lord Colambre finds that his mother Lady Clonbrony's attempts to buy her way into the high society of London are only ridiculed, while his father, Lord Clonbrony, is in serious debt as a result of his wife's lifestyle. His mother wishes him to marry an heiress, Miss Broadhurst, who is a friend of Grace Nugent. However, Colambre has already fallen in love with his cousin, Grace Nugent, who lives with the family as a companion to Lady Clonbrony. Worried that his mother will pressure him into a marriage with someone he does not love, Colambre decides to leave the London social scene and visit his ancestral home in County Wicklow in Ireland.

In the town there was a shoemaker by the name of Martin, who lived in a basement with a tiny little window looking out into the street. Martin could see the people pass, and though he only got a glimpse of their feet, he still knew every one, for Martin could recognize people by their boots. Martin had lived in that basement for many a long year and had numbers of acquaintances.

A comet called Gallia touches the Earth in its flight and collects a few small chunks of it.

These people did not realize at first what had happened, and considered the collision an earthquake.

《维摩诘经》是大乘佛教的早期经典之一，因为此经的主人公为维摩诘居士，故而得名。唐玄奘，宋法戒和尚都曾译过此经。宣传在世俗生活中也能修炼成佛。《维摩诘经》[2]运用不可思议的不二法门，消解一切矛盾，影响了禅宗思想、禅悟思维、公案机锋。禅宗将《维摩诘经》作为宗经之一，将不二法门作为处世机的态度与方法，泯灭一切对立，从而获得了生命自由的无限超越。

《圆觉经》是佛为文殊、普贤等十二位菩萨宣说如来圆觉的妙理和观行方法。其中心思想主要在强调一切万法皆含摄与圆觉妙心，有情众生的四圣六凡和无情的山河大地，都是圆觉妙心所变现的。《圆觉经》对中国佛教华严宗、天台宗禅宗、密宗等都有重要的影响，如第七章大威德的出场，就是明显的密宗特征，因此也受到密宗的重视。

本书所集的“净土三经”，就是净土宗所依据的主要经典。这三经即是：一、《无量寿经》：叙说阿弥陀佛因位的愿行和果上的功德。二、《观无量寿经》：向人们显示往生净土的行业，即修持净土的方法。三、《阿弥陀佛》：展现净土的正依报庄严、极乐世界的美妙，及执持阿弥陀佛名号的种种利益和方便。 净土是一个庄严清净的世界，是一个无苦无秽的妙土。西方净土，是“净土三经”及中国净土宗所着力宣扬的一个极乐世界，如何能追寻到一块无苦疾杂染的净土？“净土三经“所涵盖的内容足以答复所有的质疑。

        本书在伯特兰·罗素的经典著作《西方哲学简史》的结构框架下，广泛吸取其他学界名家的研究成果，精选84位哲学家及其观，用近200幅思维导图与图表，将复杂晦涩的西方哲学图像化，以超图解的手法为你展现西方哲学的发展演，带你探索西方文明的本质与内核。         为什么柏拉图的《理想国》能长居西方高校书单榜首？怎样的哲学思想推了西方现代化程？为何以理性文明著称的欧洲会爆发两次世界大战？         英国著名哲学家、诺贝尔文学奖获得者伯特兰·罗素认为，想要了解一个时代或民族，必须了解其哲学，只有这样才能真正洞悉历史的发展。

Egy kétségtelenül szellemes megjegyzés szerint a cím csak akkor fedheti le pontosan a k?nyv tartalmát, ha bet?r?l bet?re megegyezik vele. Valami hasonló mondható a fülsz?vegekr?l is (biztos Boegesnek is tetszene ez a gondolat), és ennek megfelel?en meg sem kísérlem néhány mondatban ?sszefoglalni, hogy mir?l lesz szó. Ehelyett inkább el?sz?r is azt emelem ki, hogy a címnek megfelel?en mir?l nem: például nem magáról Borgesr?l, a 20. század egyik legjelent?sebb argentin írójáról. Hanem inkább arról, hogy a novelláival kapcsolatban milyen, az irodalomtól olyakor látszólag meglehet?sen távol álló kérdések merülhetnek fel kezdve azon, hogy az általa leírt bábeli k?nyvtár valóban olyan teljes és mindenre kiterjed?-e, miként azt Borges sugallja; folytatva azon, hogy van-e egyáltalán értelme felvetni, hogy milyen lenne, ha valaki t?kéletes emlékezettel rendelkezne (nincs). Meg, hogy elképzelhet?-e, nem pedig, hogy létezik vagy legalább lehetséges-e egy olyan pont vagy térrész: egy olyan Alef, amelyen keresztül egyszerre láthatunk mindent. ?s így tovább egészen addig, hogy mit mondhatunk az irodalomkritikáról, az irodalmi zsánerek létrej?ttér?l meg elt?nésér?l vagy éppen az irodalmi halhatatlanságról – ismét csak mint elméleti problémáról. Azaz végs? soron persze mégiscsak egyfajta bolyongás ez a borgesi k?nyvtában, illetve bizonyos, legalább hipotetikusan lehetséges és az irodalomhoz így vagy úgy kapcsolódó kérdések fázisterében még akkor is, ha a fentebbiekben, miként a figyelmes olvasó már észre vehette, éppen azt tettem, amir?l korábban azt sejttettem, hogy nem fogom: néhány példa említésével próbáltam utalni rá, hogy mir?l szól az egész. De talán ez sincs igazi ellentmondásban azzal a megk?zelítéssel, amit ez a k?nyv sugall. Galántai Zoltán tudományt?rténész és író. Korábbi k?nyvei az eClassicnál: K?nyvkett?.

佛教中三本经书《四十二章经》《八大人觉经》《佛遗教经》原文及白话释译。

Avem o carte preponderent de sondare a mentalit??ii ruse, care este rezultatul unei radiografieri a societ??ii pe mai multe pali?ere, dintre care se deta?eaz? cel istoric ?i cel religios. (…) Rusia bolnav? este scris? ?n primii ani dup? evenimentele revolu?ionare din 1905?l907, ?n cursul c?rora autorul a avut o participare activ?, mai ales ?n ce prive?te punerea acestei revolu?ii sub semnul lui Hris?tos. Este o carte important? tocmai pentru c? oglinde?te deziluziile unei naturi pasiona?le, care, ?n centrul istoriei ?i al religiei, pune mereu fapta. Fire?te acum, dup? Arhipelagul lui Soljeni??n, pamfletele lui Merejkovski par simple exerci?ii de stil, ?nelibertatea” deza?vuat? ?n ele, Rusia ?arist? ca ??nchisoare a popoarelor” ap?r?nd chiar foarte apropiat? de ceea ce s?ar putea numi ?stat de drept”. ?n privin?a ?demasc?rii” ororilor contemporane?it??ii, putem spune c? – a?a cum au dovedit?o deceniile bol?evice – ?ntotdeauna este loc de mai r?u. (Emil Iordache)

Elveink nem tudnak olyan szilárdak lenni, mint naiv pillanatainkban gondolnánk, mert világunkat az érzelmek, az értelem és a hit folyton változó egyensúlya tartja ?ssze. Az ember hajlamos nagy titkokat sejteni ott, ahol egyszer?en csak nagyobb er?k m?k?dnek, mint amiket uralni tud. Azonnal a nagy titkot keresi, amikor kiemelked? tehetségekkel találkozik, amikor a hit alapvet? kérdéseit firtatja, amikor a saját érzelmeit vizsgálja, és akkor is, amikor a tudomány eszk?zeivel igyekszik mélyebben megérteni a világot. Pedig: ?A nagy titok az, hogy nincs titok”. ?j k?nyvében Mér? László az elvek, az érzelmek, a hit és a tudomány erejét valamint korlátait járja k?rül. A csattanós, “?tperces” esszék felvillantják a témák kül?nféle arcait a mindennapi életben, a hosszabbak pedig bemutatják, mit tett mindehhez a modern pszichológia.

屋外明明是艳阳高照，天气预报却说有雨，你出门时是否要带伞？彩票中奖的概率极低，你是否要一注，赌赌运气？ 投资有风险，那你是否还会股票、基金或其他理财产品？……日常生活中，我们经常会遇到类似的情景，如果你懂得一些关于概率的知识，也许就不用那么纠结和困惑了。 在《概率》一书中，作者用通俗、风趣的语言，向我们讲述了关于概率的7种主要类型。在面对不同的场景时，要使用相应的一种或多种概率类型，人们才能做出*的选择。就如英国哲学家巴特勒所言，概率是人生的真正指南。

清代是荀学复活并逐渐走向兴盛的时代，清代的荀学研究也是荀学*为重要的一个环节。本书将清代荀学划分为清初、清中叶和晚清三个各具特色的时期，考察各时期荀学研究的特及时代背景、学术风气对该时期荀学研究的影响。在每个分期下，又对具有典型意义的问题作专题研究，以清楚展现其始末；对惠栋、戴震、汪缙、章太炎及维新派诸成员等于荀子义理颇有发挥、独成一家的学者，亦作专门探讨，以便睹其荀学思想之全貌。

文化精神是一文化中一切时代、一切思想的总和。本书从文化精神的角度研究中西美学。作者从文化范式手，在把握中西美学基本精神和对中西美学作宏观整体比较的前提下，切到中西美学中“和谐”、“悲剧”、“崇高”、“荒诞与逍遥”、“文与形式”、“典型与意境”等基本概念，和“创作理论”、“灵感理论”、“灵感的主体构成”以及“审美具体方式”等具体问题，并结合了大量的中西艺术实践，作了观念的梳理与理论的分析概括来寻找横跨不同范式之间的共同规律。

本书力求建构一种基于中国文化传统，并运用新的哲学方法行思考的价值论体系。这种新的方法，简单说就是以“关系思维”代替传统的“实体思维”，将人的社会存在和人在实践中的主体性权利与责任，当作理解价值现象和价值观念的客观依据，并力求通过对实践和主体性的分析，来回答有关价值的各种问题。这一方法*初来自马克思创立的“实践的唯物主义”。
