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）。西南边疆某地，我武警战士发现了一桩重大的走私案的蛛丝马迹，然而，派去侦察的杨参谋却被暗害。武警大队得知这一消息后，断定此案与在这一带活动频繁的“黑蝴蝶”有关。经暗中搜寻，在果曼子街上发现了一个眉清目秀，形迹可疑的瘦男人啊大和随从胖汉，识破了他们贩运走私的身份。为将“黑蝴蝶”一伙一网打尽，侦察参谋勤刚化妆成买刀小贩，混入了阿大的马帮。马帮中除秦钢这个侦察参谋外还有专门为破获“双头鹰”集团而来的个案股长杨洪魁。在阿大和同伙接上头后，杨洪魁和勤刚分清敌我，与敌人展开殊死搏斗，终于使“黑蝴蝶”和“双头鹰”双双落网。。
