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）。6500万年前，一颗小行星与地球擦肩而过，称霸这个世界的恐龙懵懵懂懂地逃过了灭顶之灾。之后又过了数百万年，恐龙的智力得到进化，它们学会种植、畜牧、建筑，并且拥有属于自己的语言和家庭。某座山脚下的平原地带，雷龙一家迎来三个性格各异的娃娃，最小的阿洛孱弱胆怯，与父亲的生离死别更在他的心中投下难以磨灭的阴影。一连串的事件过后，他与妈妈、哥哥、姐姐相隔万里。阿洛将这一切都归罪于原始人类的小孩点点。而点点似乎不为所动，他主动亲近阿洛，仿佛是一条忠诚勇敢的小狗。 在充满坎坷和危险的回家之路上，阿洛与点点结伴而行，而这两个本不该碰面的恐龙和人类，将缔结超越了种族和时空的纯真友情……。
