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）。莽林山间，伴着鸟儿的鸣叫，丛林的尽头走来一对年龄相差悬殊的人儿。走在前面的女孩（全孝静 饰）天真无邪，心无旁骛，身后的老者（宋康昊 饰）白发飘逸，宛若仙人，但是接连不止的咳嗽昭示着他那令人堪忧的健康状况。他们似乎是一对师徒，惯常躲在大山深处练习清唱（潘索里，Pansori）。许是鲜少在众人面前演出的机会，女孩在新近的比赛中失利。她钉在树林中央，嘤嘤落泪，任凭身边人来人往，慈父一般的师傅只能好言相劝，如同哄着尚未更事的爱女。小小的波澜过后，他们的足迹终于来至瀑布悬崖边，伴随苍凉的鼓点，女孩的歌声穿透天际…… 本片为朴氏兄弟为某服装品牌40周年拍摄的纪念短片。。
