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）。25岁的年轻导演阿莱西奥·里纳尔蒂（Giuseppe Soleri 饰）正在筹划自己的处女作，但是他写的恐怖剧本过于老套，以至于被制片人接连枪毙。在制片人的建议下，他找来畅销恐怖小说作家乌巴尔多·泰尔扎尼（Paolo Sassanelli 饰）的作品拜读，为即将到来的合作做功课。乌巴尔多的描写恐怖逼真，引人入胜，令阿莱西奥不愿释手，更经历了何其真实的噩梦。 数日后，他驱车前往乌巴尔多位于都灵的寓所，与这位恐怖名家合作撰写剧本。乌巴尔多风流倜傥，笑容和善，但其友善的面孔后面似乎总弥漫着一丝迫人的寒意。在都灵期间，阿莱西奥遭遇了诸多离奇的事件，更无意中走上一条黑暗的道路……。
