The novel has always been in a lower position in the history of ancient Chinese literature precisely because it does not belong to orthodox literature and can develop freely without restraint. As a representative, the Tang Legend as "Synthesis of Various Styles" in the Tang Legend's art system is an inevitable trend in developing ancient novels. Accordingly, it has inclusive and expansive internal tension that can absorb the advantages of various literary genres and forms. By analysing the politicisation of the Tang legend, this essay will take the famous Tang legend pieces Legend of Everlasting Sorrow and the narrative poem of this story, Song of Everlasting Sorrow, as examples and discuss them around the three parts, Shicai, Shibi and Discussions, thus showing the characteristics of the poeticisation of Tang legend. Through analysis of Shicai, the Tang legend are a body of lyrical works that, although partially drawn on historical records' veracity, also introduce unexpected turns to keep and attract readers' attention. By referring to the Tang Dynasty's talent selection method, these two works show the talent of fiction, imagination, and exaggeration through the use of the Shibi. The Discussion could even relate to abstract truths and accomplish the goal and needs of social propaganda. Combining these three factors ensures that the Tang legend represented by these masterpieces, Legend of Everlasting Sorrow and Song of Everlasting Sorrow, remains a source of inspiration and a significant reference for literary and artistic works.

The limited liability company has exceptional human qualities; it has fewer shareholders and operates on a smaller scale, which makes its owners more prone to disagreements. Its distinctive corporate structure also makes shareholder removal a peculiar legal phenomenon. However, there is currently a gap in the building of this system in China's pertinent laws. In order to propose a more workable and practical way to enhance the shareholder exclusion system, this paper aims to clarify the fundamental idea of the shareholder exclusion system, discuss the necessity of constructing this system in China, and explore the reconstruction of substantive norms, specific procedural rules, and clear legal consequences based on the advanced legislative experience in Germany and judicial practice in China.

Through the research, we know the living conditions of urban women in the late medieval ages and the requirements of family or society to them from this instruction manual. Meanwhile, the following conclusions are drawn: in medieval marriage, both husband and wife had rights and obligations to fulfill.

Extensive research papers discussing the ancient Greek cultures or nomadic tribes refer primarily to one particular source – Herodotus’ Histories. A series of observations and oral information from various Persian territories were taken into account in this well-known work. As contemporary scholars use Herodotus' jobs, they often regard his accounts as accurate descriptions and come up with their conclusions respectively. Such a perspective should be considered a severe issue since history is a serious study of past events from all aspects of human society. Reckless approaches can, in terms, arise from wrong interpretations. This article focuses on Herodotus' descriptions of the Scythians and argues that Herodotus' works are invaluable in better understanding the archaeological findings. However, several mistakes are found in his accounts compared with other current archaeological findings. While directly citing from his works, scholars should make necessary cross-references to avoid potential errors.

Flow is a psychological concept that is often used in the design of applications and video games. This concept means that the user will go into a state of unawareness, which scales depending on the level of flow that they are in. In video games, the developer can vary the way that players experience this state or change the group of people that the game is suited for. Players can also change the level of flow by making decisions that will make their gameplay later on either easier or harder. This paper will discuss three factors that determine how and who will be able to enter the flow state in different video games. These factors are general factors, game-decided factors, and player-decided factors. The conclusion after analysis is that these factors embedded in video games cause the player to have optimal experience, or flow state.

Therefore, this paper mainly studies the impact of new media on gender equality and how new media play a role in the field of gender equality. This paper will study the topic through case analysis, data analysis, and theoretical elaboration. Through these research methods, the paper can draw a conclusion that new media has an impact on gender equality, and has a positive impact, which is reflected in the fact that people can correctly view gender through new media. Although the new media is a mainstream information distribution channel, there are currently some areas for improvement, such as the media’s sometimes disseminating incorrect or controversial information, partially manufactured news gimmicks, etc. As a consequence, new media can be used as a tool to influence the development of gender equality, which is a good trend for both women and men, as well as for society.

Aristotle’s Theory of Eudemonia is based on a profound perception of humanity. This theory is consistently practical for ordinary people, albeit in discussions about happiness and its components or explanations of varying lifestyles. Aristotle’s conception can be used to achieve a realistic ‘the best life’, which largely contrasts other eudemonic theories that can only realistically be applied by philosophical or divine individuals. In this essay, it will be argued that self-interest and other concerning factors exist with Aristotle’s theory, even though Aristotle himself never refuted the claim that his theory is profoundly egoistic. The self-interested aspect of Aristotelian theory is only relevant to how individuals perceive humans in general. Nonetheless, other concerns (such as how individuals treat others and the outcomes of their actions) are legitimate. Aristotle’s most significant achievement in this field was his promotion of virtue as a means of resolving any potential conflict between individuals’ personal interests and the outside world.

Superhero-themed films have exploded in popularity in the film business in the year 2023. Superheroes are the primary subject of American comic books and the protagonists of fantasy works. Many comic book heroes have been adapted for the big screen, and different characters require varying degrees of adaptation of their source material in order to be presented to the public on the big screen. In the process of adaptation, the decision to adapt their style impacts the tone and direction of the film, as well as the plot. This research will examine the relationship between the style of each film in the Batman series, box office performance, and word-of-mouth to determine the effect of the style of different superhero films on their own evolution.

In recent years, global issues have become a research hotpot, while scholars aim to cross the differences between different cultures through equal dialogue, seek universally recognized value principles, and establish a better world order. As one of the sources of Chinese ethical and moral culture, Taoist culture provides rich cultural potential and modern enlightenment for solving the problem of globalization. Guided by the literature research method, combined with the case study method and the qualitative analysis method, this paper explores the intellectual influence of Taoist philosophy in combination with the current situation of modern society. The influence of Taoism is multifaceted. For national culture, we can't just stay in the external form of national culture, which is just an extension of national culture. To truly understand and disseminate Chinese philosophy, we must protect and develop its connotation and extension at the same time.

Video games, as a relatively new but increasingly mature art form, gradually have a different value than other art forms as they develop. Video games can only be treated properly if the players are fully aware of their multifaceted nature. So the topic of this paper is the value of video games. This paper will try to solve the problem through multi-angle analysis and the experiential summary method. It can be concluded that the game's value is primarily comprised of its commodity and artistic value. As a commodity, games do make a lot of money for game companies. As art, games are indeed artistic and even have a higher dimension than other art forms.

In view of the current situation that the teaching of Chinese characters' pronunciation is relatively separated from the font and meaning in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language (TCFL), this thesis puts forward a plan to introduce the concept of "Yi Sheng character" in Shuowen Jiezi based on the fundamental, practicability and innovative of the New Practical Chinese Reader Textbook (Volume 1-4). This thesis analyses all the Yi Sheng characters and Yi Sheng components mentioned in the "Basic Chinese Characters" section of the New Practical Chinese Reader Textbooks (Volumes 1-4), discusses their associations with modern pronunciation by ancient or modern pronunciation, traditional or simplified Chinese character and phonemic component, in a bid to summarise the associations in meanings between the Yi Sheng components and the Yi Sheng characters. In this way, foreign Chinese learners can gain a holistic understanding of the pronunciation-font-meaning combination of basic Chinese characters.
