Wildy & Sons, EC4Y, [Part one: Fleet Street.] I’ve been equal parts fascinated and beguiled by Wildy & Son’s Fleet Street shop for a while now but it’s taken me thus far to actually make it inside. Law specialists since 1830, every kind of legal text staple is covered here as well as a range of more accessible titles such as The Snail and the Ginger Beer: The Singular Case of Donoghue v Stevenson (Hence the photo above.) This makes it catnip for the curious reader. A great pit stop for those wishing to broaden their non-fiction horizons and professional legal eagles alike. I thoroughly recommend! http://www.wildy.com/

Religion in Taiwan is rich in diversity and history and is a key part in the lives of many Taiwanese people. Indeed, some say that the Taiwanese don’t just follow religion, but actually “live” it, their daily routines and special rites of passages shaped by the will of the gods. Although there are also many Christians in Taiwan, most Taiwanese practice Confucianism, Daoism or Buddhism- and many…
Alishan Shouzhen Temple
Shouzhen Temple (受鎮宮), which is located in Alishan Forest Recreation Area, is the highest elevation temple in Taiwan. In 1927, the Taiwanese lumbermen helped Japanese cutting down red cypress. In that time, aborigine hided in the bush and cut intruders’ heads down once they entered the forest. Lumbermen were afraid of it. They wanted to be blessed and protected by god by means of building a temple. However, approval was needed to build a temple from Japanese Government during Japanese Colonial Era. After Taiwan’s Retrocession, Taiwanese lumbermen didn’t work for Japanese anymore. Yet, there were still many lumbermen working in Alishan above 2000 meters elevation. After one and another accidents happened, someone proposed to build a temple in Alishan. Finally, Shouzhen Temple was finished in 1948. It’s the biggest temple in Alishan.
One of the most well-known tales is that every March on the lunar calendar, around the time Xuan Wu God (玄天上帝) is to celebrate his birthday, the temple is visited by wonder butterflies (神蝶) who roost on the statue. These wonder butterflies have been on the statue, and worshippers believed that these beautiful creatures were celebrating the birthday of Xuan Wu God. (In fact, the wonder butterflies aren’t really a butterfly species, but a Brahmin moth called Brahmaea wallichii.)
