《聊斋志异》，清代短篇小说集，是蒲松龄的代表作，在他40岁左右时基本完成，此后不断有所增补和修改。“聊斋”是他的书屋名称，“志”是记述的意思， “异”指奇异的故事。全书有短篇小说491篇，内容十分广泛，多谈狐、魔、花、妖，以此来概括当时的社会关系，反映了17世纪中国的社会面貌。书中写的是一个花妖鬼狐的世界，既有对如漆墨黑的社会现实的不满，又有对怀才不遇、仕途难攀的不平；既有对贪宫污吏狼狈为奸的鞭笞，又有对勇于反抗，敢于复仇的平民的称赞；而数量最多、质量上乘、写得最美最动人的是那些人与狐妖、人与鬼神以及人与人之间的纯真爱情的篇章。 (来自百度百科) (Summary from Baike.baidu.com)...

The Chinese Union Version (CUV) (Chinese: 和合本; pinyin: héhé běn; literally harmonized/united version) is the predominant Chinese language translation of the Bible used by Chinese Protestants. It is considered by many to be the Chinese Protestant’s Bible.

Compiled around 1763, 'Three Hundred Tang Poems' is the standard collection of the poetic art of the Tang Dynasty (618 to 907). Volume Four has poems in the style 七言律詩 'Seven character regular verse' (poems 170 to 223). Chinese summary: 《唐诗三百首》的编选者蘅塘退士(1711～1778)，编选这本书是有感于《千家诗》选诗标准不严，体裁不备，体例不一，希望以新的选本取而代之，成为合适的、流传不废的家塾课本。他们的选诗标准是“因专就唐诗中脍炙人口之作，择其尤要者”。既好又易诵，以体裁为经，以时间为纬。七言律诗简称七律，是近体诗的一种，格律要求与五律相同。七律源于七言古体，在初唐时期渐成规模，至杜甫臻至炉火纯青。有唐一代，七律圣手有王维、杜甫、李商隐、杜牧、罗隐等，风华绝代，辉映古今。 Summarized by: Vivian Chan...

The Analects, also known as the Analects of Confucius, are a record of the words and acts of the central Chinese thinker and philosopher Confucius and his disciples, as well as the discussions they held. The Chinese title literally means “discussion over [Confucius’] words.” Written during the Spring and Autumn Period through the Warring States Period (ca. 479 BC - 221 BC), the Analects is the representative work of Confucianism and continues to have a tremendous influence on Chinese and East Asian thought and values today.

Philosophy
The Chinese Union Version (CUV) (Chinese: 和合本; pinyin: héhé běn; literally harmonized/united version) is the predominant Chinese language translation of the Bible used by Chinese Protestants. It is considered by many to be the Chinese Protestant’s Bible. The CUV was translated by a panel with members from many different Protestant denominations, using the English Revised Version as a basis and original manuscripts for crosschecking. Work on the CUV began in 1890 and originally three versions of the CUV were planned: two classical Chinese versions and a vernacular Mandarin version. The CUV was completed in 1919, with one amalgamated classical Chinese translation and one vernacular Mandarin translation. With the onset of May Fourth Movement, and the associated New Culture Movement, the CUV is the first translated work to be published in Vernacular Chinese. The CUV in use today is the vernacular Mandarin version, published in two slightly different editions: the Shen Edition (神版) and the Shangti Edition (上帝版), differing in the way the word God is translated. 《聖經和合本》（簡稱和合本；今指國語和合本，舊稱官話和合本），是今日華語人士最普遍使用的《聖經》譯本。此譯本的出版起源自1890年在上海舉行的傳教士大會，會...
The Tang Dynasty (618 to 907) was a golden age of Chinese culture: religion and philosophy, painting and calligraphy, sculpture, architecture and music all reached peaks of perfection. Poetry was the epitome of the arts: a scholastic requirement, a route to fame, a moulder of character. Nearly 50,000 poems of the Tang have survived. The collection 'Three Hundred Tang Poems' was compiled around 1763. It comprises six volumes, with poems grouped by verse form. Volume 1 covers the 'ancient verse' style in five-character lines (poems 1 to 35), and 'folk song style verse' (36 to 45). The masters Li Bai, Du Fu and Wang Wei are well represented here. Recordings in this volume are in Cantonese, Hokkien, Mandarin and Taiwanese, as indicated in the titles; some are spoken, others are sung. (Summary by David Barnes)...
Di Zi Gui (弟子规), in English, means the Standards for being a Good Student and Child. It is an ancient book based on the teaching of the great Confucius that emphasises on the basic requisites for being a good person and guidelines for living in harmony with others. The source for the main outline of it is from Analects of Confucius, Book 1, Chapter 6, where Confucius said: A young man should be a good son at home and an obedient young man abroad, sparing of speech but trustworthy in what he says, and should love the multitude at large but cultivate the friendship of his fellow men. If he has any energy to spare from such action, let him devote it to making himself cultivated. There are altogether seven chapters in Di Zi Gui, with each chapter listing one duty that a good person should follow in life. (From Wikipedia) Chinese summary to follow....
