Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, motivated by all too human temptations, but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.

Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years it has held generation upon generation of scholars, students and readers in rapt attention and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture.

不經過戰鬥的捨棄是虛偽的，不經劫難磨鍊的超脫是輕佻的，逃避現實的明哲是卑怯的；中庸，苟且，小智小慧，是我們的致命傷：這是我十五年來與日俱增的信念。而這一切都由於貝多芬的啟示。

我稱為英雄的，並非以思想或強力稱雄的人；而只是靠心靈而偉大的人。好似他們之中最偉大的一個，就是我們要敘述他的生涯的人所說的：除了仁慈以外，我不承認還有什麼優越的標記。

不幸的人啊！切勿過於怨嘆，人類中最優秀的和你們同在。汲取他們的勇氣做我們的養料罷；倘使我們太弱，就把我們的頭枕在他們膝上休息一會罷。他們會安慰我們。在這些神聖的心靈中，有一股清明的力和強烈的慈愛，像激流一般飛湧出來。甚至毋須探詢他們的作品或傾聽他們的聲音，就在他們的眼裡，他們的行述里，即可看到生命從沒像處於患難時的那麼偉大，那麼豐滿，那麼幸福。

痛苦是無窮的，它具有種種形式。有時，它是由於物質的凌虐，如災難、疾並命運的褊枉、人類的惡意。有時，它即蘊藏在人的內心。在這種情境中的痛苦，是同樣的可憫，同樣的無可挽救；因為人不能自己選擇他的人生，人既不要求生，也不要求成為他所成為的樣子。

米開朗琪羅的痛苦，即是這后一種。他有力強，他生來便是為戰鬥為征服的人；而且他居然征服了。——可是，他不要勝利。他所要的並不在此。——真是哈姆萊特式的悲劇呀！賦有英雄的天才而沒有實現的意志；賦有專斷的熱情，而並無奮激的願望：這是多麼悲痛的矛盾！

俄羅斯的偉大的心魂，百年前在大地上發著光焰的，對於我的一代，曾經是照耀我們青春時代的最精純的光彩。在十九世紀終了時陰霾重重的黃昏，它是一顆撫慰人間的巨星，它的目光足以吸引並慰撫我們青年的心魂。在法蘭西，多少人認為托爾斯泰不止是一個受人愛戴的藝術家，而是一個朋友，最好的朋友，在全部歐羅巴藝術中惟一的真正的友人。既然我亦是其中的一員，我願對於這神聖的回憶，表示我的感激與敬愛。

我們絕對不像今日的批評家般說：有兩個托爾斯泰，一是轉變以前的，一是轉變以後的；一是好的，一是不好的。對於我們，只有一個托爾斯泰，我們愛他整個。因為我們本能地感到在這樣的心魂中，一切都有立場，一切都有關連

《人猿泰山》是一部優秀的小說，在書中巴勒斯一方面對人類社會的弊端感到深惡痛絕，另一方面又指出了非洲原始叢林對泰山人性發展的限制。這雖然證明他對人類文明的肯定，但又是從白人優越感和種族偏見甚至階級偏見出發的，未免有些美中不足。儘管如此，泰山還是象孫悟空在中國一樣受人歡迎。

古蘭經據稱是安拉在穆聖二十三年（公元610—632）的傳教活動中適時地零星地用阿拉伯文降示的一部綜合性大法典。一千三百年來，它已經成為全世界包括中國穆斯林在內的各國穆斯林信仰和遵循的一部根本法典。它既是伊斯蘭信條的源泉和教法創製的依據，也是一切穆斯林的行動指南和道德規範的準則。

古蘭經有多種中文譯本。本軟體選用了馬堅先生的譯本。馬堅先生（1906－1978），北京大學教授，中國現代傑出的穆斯林學者，阿拉伯語言學家和翻譯家。他的《古蘭經》譯本譯文忠實準確，文字簡潔流暢，風格古樸清新，受到廣大穆斯林的肯定和高度評價。1987年（回曆1407年）經沙烏地阿拉伯王國朝覲義產部督導，馬堅先生的譯本隨《古蘭經》阿拉伯文原文一起出版，發行到世界各地，成為迄今為止全球影響最大的《古蘭經》漢譯本。

《屋頂間的哲學家》是法國作家梭維斯特的代表作。一個住在巴黎屋頂間（一種貧民窟）的哲學家，從他高踞在上的屋頂間，俯視下界蠅營狗苟的眾生，生動地寫下了這部日記體的作品。書中十二個分散的故事，像十二首美麗動人的詩篇，充溢著愛和同情的人生哲學，處處表現出恬淡謙挹（yì）的人生觀。作者對普通人的真誠關懷和對人生罪惡的深切痛恨，充分透露出上一世紀一個有良知的知識分子處身亂世不肯隨欲浮沉的磊落胸襟和博大情懷。

No one succeeds in obtaining a prominent place in literature, or in surrounding himself with a faithful and steady circle of admirers drawn from the fickle masses of the public, unless he possesses originality, constant variety, and a distinct personality. It is quite possible to gain for a moment a few readers by imitating some original feature in another; but these soon vanish and the writer remains alone and forgotten. Others, again, without belonging to any distinct group of authors, having found their standard in themselves, moralists and educators at the same time, have obtained undying recognition.

這是陳冠中繼他的香港三部曲后寫成的中長篇小說。小說題材虛構，背景是當代大中國，是未來的2013年的中國。可以說這是一部奇特的寓言小說。評論家李歐梵教授讀後說：小說題材發前人之所未發，一開篇就精采無比，欲罷不能，緊張刺激而又令人心泛寒意，實在不容錯過。

陳冠中這部題名為盛世：中國2013年的小說，寫世界經濟于金融海嘯后，全球格局進入冰河時期，中國卻安然避過劫難，反而開始步入千年一遇的盛世。小說家的意圖是，中國盛世真的來臨了嗎？會不會所有的一切只是人為製造出來的一種迷幻效應？小說情節奇構，生鬼荒謬，有些令人驚嚇有些讓人哭笑不是。

金子美鈴（1903-1930），活躍于上個世紀20年代的日本童謠詩人。去世時年僅二十七歲。其作品一度被世人遺忘。1984年，金子美鈴生前留下的三本手抄童謠詩集共五百一十二首作品正式續集出版，即刻受到矚目，並廣為流傳。迄今為止，金子美鈴的多首代表作被收錄于日本的小學國語課本，其作品已被翻譯成包括中文在內的英、法、韓等七國文字。

昌耀（1936-2000），原名王昌耀，出版的詩集有《昌耀抒情詩集》（1986）、《命運之書》（1994）、《一個挑戰的旅行者步行在上帝的沙盤》（1996）、《昌耀的詩》（1998）等。
