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）。Full House 讲述了美国旧金山的一个单亲家庭，电视节目主持人Danny Tanner在爱妻Pam遭遇车祸死亡后承担起了抚养三个女儿（老大DJ，老二Stephanie和不满周岁的Michelle）的责任。小舅子Jesse（摇滚乐手）和Danny最好的朋友Joey（喜剧演员）随后搬进Tanner家，打算暂住一段时间帮助Danny一起抚养三个女儿，哪知却一住就是8个年头。在这8年里，伴着欢笑泪水，喜怒哀乐，三个女儿渐渐长大，而Danny，Jesse和Joey也在各自的事业和爱情的路途上演绎出了一幕幕有趣感人的故事。 该剧1987年9月22日首播，一共8季，1995年结束后随着ABC，TBS，WGN等电视台每天一集的重播，在整个美国变得比首播时更加受欢迎。9个月大就开始在剧中共同扮演Michelle的双胞胎奥尔森姐妹更是以此成名，6岁起就出专辑演电影...。
