Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。拿威在一次潜水意外与人鱼少女相遇，同时也邂逅了水底摄影师大霈。 擅长自由深潜的拿威担任她的海上向导，这片未开发的海底美景让来自都市的大霈如痴如醉；在大霈镜头中的海洋，更是从小生长在兰屿的拿威看到未曾体验过的宇宙观，他们用彼此的眼看见了全新的世界，也让拿威看见了自由深潜的未来与商机、给了他出走兰屿的契机。 躲在礁石后的人鱼少女，是那次潜水意外中真正救了拿威的人，她奋力的褪去尾鳍、与拿威再次的相遇。她有着纯朴和洁净的心，也有着如海洋般的温暖和静谧，当拿威与人鱼少女悠游在海底深潜，他感受到无比的自在与平静，以及对故乡浓浓的依恋。“来我的怀里当一条鱼吧……”，他仿佛听见了海洋的呼唤、听见了少女的期待。 究竟该投入大海的拥抱，还是追求更大的梦想？ 拿威陷入了美美与人鱼少女中的纠结，这是“离开”与“留下”的选择，也是“寻找”与“回归”的选择。这片让人依恋的海，是道路的终点，给予兰屿得以保有纯真与自然的屏障，还是奔向世界的起点？。书生张君瑞在普救寺里偶遇已故崔相国之女莺莺，对她一见倾心，苦于无法接近。此时恰有孙飞虎听说莺莺美貌，率兵围住普救寺，要强娶莺莺为妻。崔夫人情急之下听从莺莺主意，允诺如有人能够退兵，便将莺莺嫁他。张生喜出望外，修书请得故人白马将军杜确率兵前来解围，但事后崔夫人绝口不提婚事，只让二人以兄妹相称。张生失望之极，幸有莺莺的丫环红娘从中帮忙，扶莺莺月夜烧香，听见张生弹琴诉说衷肠。后来，莺莺听说张生病倒，让红娘去书房探望。张生相思难解，求红娘替他从中传递消息。莺莺怜惜张生，终于鼓起勇气，也写诗回赠，后在红娘帮助下，二人瞒过崔夫人，私下幽会并订了终身。老夫人知情后怒责红娘，但已无可挽回，便催张生进京应考。张生与莺莺依依而别，半年后得中状元，最后有情人终成眷属。。
