Memoirs from the Beijing Film Academy

After graduating from the Beijing Film Academy in 1982, directors like Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou transformed Chinese cinema with Farewell My Concubine, Yellow Earth, Raise the Red Lantern, and other international successes.

On the seventh day of marriage, Ji Yan was still locked up in the basement. She was forcibly sent to Shang family by her parents to replace her sister and marry the monster man, Shang Jinshen, who is rumored to be unable to walk. During these seven days, only one hot man comes to the basement every day to see her and provoke her. That time, she decides to fight back and bites the man, but she pays the price by having her first time taken away by the hot man. Finally, after ten days of captivity, she was released. When the Madam of the Shang family humiliates her for her poverty, her so-called husband shows up to defend her. She saw Shang Jinshen sitting in a wheelchair with many scars on his face. But what she doesn't know is that this image of weakness is a pretence by Shang Jinshen. The man who took away her virginity is the real Shang Jinshen.

Ben Cao Gang Mu, Volume I, Part A

Volume I is divided into two parts. Part A of volume 1 in the Ben cao gang mu series offers a translation of chapters 1 and 2 and portions of chapter 3. Chapters 1 and 2 are devoted to introducing the history of materia medica. Chapter 3 is devoted to pharmaceutical drugs for diseases. Chapter 3 is continued, along with chapter 4, in part B of volume I. The Ben cao gang mu is a sixteenth-century Chinese encyclopedia of medical matter and natural history by Li Shizhen (1518–1593). The culmination of a sixteen-hundred-year history of Chinese medical and pharmaceutical literature, it is considered the most important and comprehensive book ever written in the history of Chinese medicine and remains an invaluable resource for researchers and practitioners. This nine-volume series reveals an almost two-millennia-long panorama of wide-ranging observations and sophisticated interpretations, ingenious manipulations, and practical applications of natural substances for the benefit of human health. Paul U. Unschuld's annotated translation of the Ben cao gang mu, presented here with the original Chinese text, opens a rare window into viewing the people and culture of China's past.
