Author Henry Hitchings explores the lives and works of Britain's radical and pioneering 18th-century novelists who, in just 80 years, established all the literary genres we recognise today. It was a golden age of creativity led by Daniel Defoe, Jonathan Swift, Henry Fielding, Laurence Sterne, Fanny Burney and William Godwin, amongst others. Robinson Crusoe, Moll Flanders, Gulliver's Travels, Tom Jones and Tristram Shandy are novels that still sparkle with audacity and innovation. 　　On his journey through 18th-century fiction, Hitchings reveals how the novel was more than mere entertainment, it was also a subversive hand-grenade that would change British society for the better. He travels from the homes of Britain's great and good to its lowliest prisons, meeting contemporary writers like Martin Amis, Will Self, Tom McCarthy and Jenny Uglow on the way. 　　Although 18th-century novels are woefully neglected today compared to those of the following two centuries, Hitchings shows how the best of them can offer as much pleasure to the reader as any modern classic

什么是哥特？这个词意味着不祥、超自然和恐怖。它也是中世纪的一种建筑风格，旨在歌颂上帝的神圣建筑。一个词为何会有如此不同的含义？哥特式一词的创造者，是意大利文艺复兴时期的一群艺术家，意在嘲讽。他们用它来描述古希腊和古罗马文明以外的一切。它代表蒙昧、残忍和野蛮。他们用这个词否定了延续了几百年的中世纪艺术和建筑，贬低它们为原始且毫无价值。中世纪出现了史上最壮观的大小教堂，它们包含天堂的幻影和来自地狱的警告。

THE FALLEN is a three-sided story about German, Italian, and American soldiers, set in Northern Italy during the final weeks of the World War II. On the one side, a group of American supply soldiers delivers ammunition to the front line, a journey that becomes a descent into hell, the success of the mission becomes less likely with every setback. On the other, a doomed German unit and their ragtag Italian partners struggle to maintain morale and discipline amongst their beleaguered troops in the face of certain defeat. Torn between these are the divided loyalties of the Italians, both fascist soldiers and communist partisans, who have turned brother against brother in a bloody civil war. The film looks at the everyday life of the soldiers, their encounters on the road, their hopes and dreams, and the differences in values, morals, and patriotism between the cultures at the end of that era.
