一声巨响，一条火龙从井底喷出……1976年，唐山一带出现了罕见的地质异常现象，国家地震局为了保证地震检测的准确，派有经验的周海光赶赴唐山，任唐山市地震台台长。周海光与地震局同事超凡去防空洞里勘测，使周海光意想不到的是，洞里不仅气温升高，而且成群的老鼠不停的乱窜。更为严重的是洞内不断有墙壁裂开，且喷出伴有硫磺气味的黄白色的气体，随后，一声震天巨响，周海光立即向市委、市政府作了报告。水位的升高、鱼类的死亡、老鼠的迁徙，尤其是煤矿井下出现了地热喷涌等一系列现象说明大地震即将爆发。周海光在向市政府汇报同时，向全市发出了地震临震警报。然而唐山并没有地震，而是河北大城地区发生了4.2级的地震。这次的误报，使周海光受到了极大的压力。 为了搞清真相，证明唐山还存在着地震的危险，周海光顶着压力继续监测。在一次野外监测中，周海光搭救了在郊游中被群蛇惊吓而落下悬崖的向文燕...。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）。
