Summer Palace
2010
star 7.7The Imperial Garden of the Qing Dynasty, formerly known as the Qingyi Garden, was built in the Qing Emperor Qianlong period when the national power was strong. It was destroyed by the British and French coalition forces in the second Opium War in 1860. During the reign of Emperor Guangxu, it was renamed the Summer Palace and became the main place where Cixi lived and lived in his later years. The Summer Palace was looted by the Eight-Power Allied Forces in 1900 and was occupied by the Japanese during the Anti-Japanese War. In 1928, the Summer Palace officially became a national park by the Royal Garden. The preservation of the archives and cultural relics in the park today records the history of China's feudal society from its glory to its decline, and it has also witnessed the vicissitudes of several vicissitudes of gardens in New China. The Summer Palace is a collection of Chinese classical garden art. It combines the essence of the north and south gardens and integrates the man-made landscape with nature. It isAnything to Win

Jonathan Meades on Jargon
2018
star 10In this provocative television essay, writer and broadcaster Jonathan Meades turns his forensic gaze on that modern phenomenon that drives us all up the wall - jargon. In a wide-ranging programme he dissects politics, the law, football commentary, business, the arts, tabloid-speak and management consultancy to show how jargon is used to cover up, confuse and generally keep us in the dark. He contrasts this with the world of slang, which unlike jargon actually gets to the heart of whatever it's talking about even if it does offend along the way. With plenty of what is called 'strong language', Meades pulls no punches in slaying the dragon of jargon.The World's Most Amazing Vacation Rentals
