        The Beauty of Traditional Chinese Make-up

        The Beauty of Traditional Chinese Make-up

        by Ya Li, Shiyu Chen

        Based on ancient Chinese documents, images and cultural relics, combined with mass pictures，this book traces the aesthetic changes of ancient Chinese makeup. The authors are committed to making up for the lack of makeup images, trying to restore some makeups that can be only found in historical records without pictures. Therefore, they initiated the ancient Chinese makeup restoration project, inviting makeup artists, photographers and models to work together to restore the full spectrum of Chinese women's makeup. The book not only reveals key turning points of women's makeup in nearly three thousand years, but also presents the changes in women's status and aesthetic trends in ancient Chinese society. 本书以中国古代文献、图像和文物为基础，以图文结合的方式，复盘中国古代妆容审美的变迁。 该书从商周的文身起笔，历数素妆风行的周代、彩妆肇始的秦代、审美成型的两汉、自在灵动的南北朝、奢侈华丽的唐、回归素朴的宋、异域风情的辽元、端庄清丽的明、花样繁多的清，不仅在细节处点明历代女性妆容的要点，也从侧面呈现了中国古代的社会风貌、女性地位和审美思潮的变迁。 这不仅是一部妆容史，更是一部全面的中国妆容图谱。两位作者致力于补齐妆容图像的缺失，尝试将一些仅见于史籍记载，而没有历史文物图片的妆型复原出来，故而发起中国古代妆容复原项目，邀请造型、化妆、摄影专家和模特，共同完成了了中国女性妆容复原全谱，是为本书重要配图。 全书用语通俗，考据严谨，图片精美，可为中国古代妆容研究提供重要参考，也是探索中国传统文化与审美的入门读物。

        History of Ancient Chinese Jewellery

        by Li Ya, etc

        This book analyses and examines the origins, names, categories, materials, styles, production techniques, wearing styles and decorative patterns of jewelry, as well as the corresponding rules and regulations and other cultural information attached to them, through a combination of literature, aesthetic appreciation and cultural interpretation, and explains the close relationship between dress and people in traditional Chinese culture: jewelry is close to people and is an important symbol of status, skills and so on. It also directly reflects the spirituality, philosophical thinking, aesthetic standards and cultural trends of society. The book fills a gap in the study of ancient Chinese jewelry and is of innovative and cumulative cultural value. It was nominated for the 5th China Publishing Government Award.

        The Boy Who Saw the Color of Air

        by Abdo Wazen

        In his first YA novel, cultural journalist and author Abdo Wazen writes about a blind teenager in Lebanon who finds strength and friendship among an unlikely group.   Growing up in a small Lebanese village, Bassim’s blindness limits his engagement with the materials taught in his schools. Despite his family’s love and support, his opportunities seem limited.   So at thirteen years old, Bassim leaves his village to join the Institute for the Blind in a Beirut suburb. There, he comes alive. He learns Braille and discovers talents he didn’t know he had. Bassim is empowered by his newfound abilities to read and write.   Thanks to his newly developed self-confidence, Bassim decides to take a risk and submit a short story to a competition sponsored by the Ministry of Education. After winning the competition, he is hired to work at the Institute for the Blind.   At the Institute, Bassim, a Sunni Muslim, forms a strong friendship with George, a Christian. Cooperation and collective support are central to the success of each student at the Institute, a principle that overcomes religious differences. In the book, the Institute comes to symbolize the positive changes that tolerance can bring to the country and society at large.   The Boy Who Saw the Color of Air is also a book about Lebanon and its treatment of people with disabilities. It offers insight into the vital role of strong family support in individual success, the internal functioning of institutions like the Institute, as well as the unique religious and cultural environment of Beirut.   Wazen’s lucid language and the linear structure he employs result in a coherent and easy-to-read narrative. The Boy Who Saw the Color of Air is an important contribution to a literature in which people with disabilities are underrepresented. In addition to offering a story of empowerment and friendship, this book also aims to educate readers about people with disabilities and shed light on the indispensable roles played by institutions like the Institute.

        Everything is lost. Lena’s enemies have taken over the invisible city and launched a witch hunt for time travellers. Together with Bobbie, Lena takes refuge in the future and tries desperately to find other rebels. The near future is already very different compared to her present life: in 2031 climate change is undeniable and people pay by using implanted memory chips, which is frightening enough. Then her chronometer picks up a faint signal – from Dante. Lena can hardly wait to see him again. But can she be sure the signal is genuine?  Things take a dark turn when she is visited by a group of time tourists; in a distant future, time travel is big business. But no one seems to care about the chaos and damage this kind of tourism can cause – or even that it could destroy humanity itself.   For Lena, everything is on the line: the existence of the invisible city, the fate of humanity’s forgotten stories – and even her love for Dante.     12+ years The finale of this enthralling fantasy trilogy.
