JAPANESE CHERRY BLOSSOMS: Spring’s Glorious, Fleeting Celebration 敬春之生 品春之美 ——源於大和的櫻花情結 English by Angela Feng | Chinese by Cora Wang

right pink cherry blossoms against a brilliant blue sky is a sight unlike any other in the world. “Sakura” is the cherry blossom’s name in Japan. They flutter slowly to the ground as crowds mill about, taking in springtime’s beauty. Across the country, the atmosphere shifts. Buds bloom. Winter draws to an end. Just as spring brings the promise of fresh beginnings, the sweet scent of the sakura brings hope and cheer. Family and friends gather to admire the scenery and enjoy warmer weather.
滿開的櫻花樹下，遊人如織；樹上枝枒層層疊疊，花兒
A REVERED TRADITION “Hanami” is the Japanese word for “the act of admiring cherry blossoms,” which is a respected tradition there. It dates back to the Nana period (A.D. 710–794) when a Japanese envoy to China brought back the custom of enjoying plum blossoms. Festivals dedicated to sakura began in the Heian period (A.D. 794–1185). Back then, Japanese people believed gods signaled a year of good harvest through cherry blossoms. So they prayed, made offerings, and feasted to honor the sacred trees. Hanami—sakura festivals as we know them now—were first popular in the imperial court. Nobles held grand viewing ceremonies that included singing, dancing, feasting, and drinking. Over time, the hanami tradition spread to the common people and became widely enjoyed all over Japan. One of the largest hanamis to ever take place was Hideyoshi Toyotomi’s Cherry Blossom Party in 1598, held at the famous Daigo-ji Temple in Kyoto. The temple was in a state of disrepair until Toyotomi invited thousands to attend his event. With over 700 cherry blossom trees planted around the temple, the extravagant fete further cemented the hanami as a valuable part of Japanese culture. After that, Daigo-ji Temple was revitalized and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
大和之櫻
成串成團，隨風微顫，光影明暗如斑，偶有一陣勁風吹 來，吹落纖薄粉嫩的花瓣，細小的花瓣因輕盈無比而在 空中漫舞打轉，墜落的數秒間，就像電影的慢速鏡頭， 凝滯一種無以言表的浪漫。 無論是在廣闊的綠 地、長長的河堤 邊上或 環形的 湖畔，放眼望去，但凡有成片的櫻色花海相伴，便是虛 擲光陰也無妨。當盛景填滿雙瞳，彷彿時間也走慢了， 賞櫻何以如此醉人？或許源自一份積澱千年的文化情懷 ⋯⋯談及賞櫻，誰人不神往日本的櫻花，那令舉世趨之 若鶩的勝景，稍縱即逝，更讓人想一睹風采。
日語中「 花見 」 （はなみ）一詞，專指賞櫻這項活動。據 學者考究，起初是因奈良時代（ 西元 710~794 年），日 本派出遣唐使出使中國，將中國人玩賞梅花的習俗帶回， 因此最初的賞花活動是從賞梅開始。而在平安時期（ 西 元 794 年 ~1185 年）日本宮廷貴族間盛行「 賞花宴」， 即以賞櫻為主題而舉辦的盛會。 後來，為賞花置宴的習俗，從貴族流傳至武士，以 至街坊平民階層。戰國時期，還有一次最著名的「 醍醐 花宴 」——1598 年，戰國豪傑豐臣秀吉在京都醍醐寺 內親自設計一座日式庭院置宴，當天共有上千人共同參 與這場賞櫻盛宴，浩大場面載入史冊，亦將大和民族的 賞櫻興致推向高峰。此外，政府為了治理水利環境，開 始在河堤邊有計劃地大量種植櫻花樹，櫻花融進了人們 的日常。至江戶時代（ 西元 1603 年 ~1867 年），賞櫻已 成為雅俗共享的盛事。浮世繪畫家歌川廣重在其著名的 系列畫作 《名所江戶百景》的「 春之部」中，便描繪了數幅 櫻開盛景。
日文漢字的「桜 」，念作「さくら」 （sakura），漢字與
中文「 櫻」同義，專指這種植物。然而，在平假名的發音 中，以日本民族學角度探究，則能發現另一種意義—— 相傳古時掌管稻穀的神明為「さ」神（さ有早苗之意）， 「く
ら」意為神明坐鎮之地，因此櫻花象徵穀神所在之處，衍 伸為春天之神。櫻花被敬奉為神祇，人們對其崇敬，不敢 隨意褻瀆。 平安時期有許多文學、歌舞作品，相繼歌詠櫻花， 而在日本最重要的和歌著作《古今和歌集》中，就有逾百 首和歌都在吟詠櫻花，如貴族在原業平所著： 「 若無櫻
BEAUTY IN IMPERMANENCE From the 1600s until the mid-1800s, viewing cherry blossoms was a popular event enjoyed by Japanese from all walks of life. The flowers and their festivals became recurrent motifs in art and literature, as the charming blossom established itself as a national

SWEET MOMENTS Traditional Japanese Confectionery: Wagashi 方寸蘊四季 飲食之花「和菓子」 Chinese by Ann Lin | Translated by Minghui Wang
E
ach season briefly holds its unique splendor: fluttering cherry blossoms, blooming hydrangeas, dramatic red maple leaves, and pristine white snow. But, as the Japanese poet Fujiwara no Okikaze lamented, “Hundreds of flowers and thousands of grasses all flourish yet all will wither.” In order to hold on to each invaluable instant, the Japanese carved their observations of the subtle changes of each season into a wide variety of delicate confections named “wagashi.”
春天的櫻、夏天的繡球花、秋天的紅葉，與冬天的白雪， 每一個季節都擁有屬於自己的一片美景。可惜，光景再 好，花葉終會落，白雪終會融，如同日本歌人藤原興風寫 下的哀嘆： 「 千草百咲花，雖盛無一不凋零。」
日人有感時光荏苒，轉瞬即逝，為了留住剎那的美
好，便將四季的流轉與感悟，幻化成掌心上一顆顆精緻 的點心─ ─和 菓 子，在日本飲食文化中，開出一朵朵雅 致之花。

A LEGENDARY FRUIT SETS THE STAGE Wagashi is traditional Japanese confectionery. “Wa” signifies Japan, and the remaining syllables refer to desserts made from fruit. Legend has it that wagashi originated from an ancient myth. When Emperor Suinin, the 11th emperor of Japan, fell ill, he heard that far away there exists an Eternal Land. There, a special fragrant fruit grows that’s used as medicine to achieve immortality. So the emperor sent out a courtier named Tajimamori to hunt for the fruit. After 10 years, Tajimamori finally returned with the special fruit, only to find the emperor had already passed away. Devastated, this loyal courtier planted the branches of the fruit tree beside the emperor’s imperial tomb, then followed his leader to the grave by ending his own life. The special fruit associated with wagashi’s origin is the tangerine. Centuries have passed, yet Japanese people still see tangerines as a traditional symbol of longevity. This little fruit sparked the beloved tradition of eating carefully crafted small sweets, especially to mark important events and people throughout the year. June in Japan brings heat, humidity, and rain that make people susceptible to illness. To ward off this misfortune, a tradition is celebrated every year on the last day of June. It’s known as “Nagoshi no Harae” (the Purification Ritual of Summer's Passing). Members of the imperial court traditionally snacked on ice on that day. Peasant families had no access to ice, so they made a dessert with a base that has a texture in between jelly and “kuih” and delightfully resembles the cooling effects of ice. It consists of a white triangular “uirō-mochi” (Japanese steamed cake) made from rice f lour, and a layer of red adzuki beans on top. The red color of the beans on top is believed to drive away evil spirits. The treat is called Minazuki, which also means June. Minazuki is delicious, and it also cleanses away midyear chaos and disaster, while attracting blessings for the coming months.
遠古傳說 寄情於菓
和 菓 子是日本傳統點心的統稱，舊稱「 菓 子」，最初指 的是正餐外的點心，使用水果或果實加工製作的食品。
相傳，菓子起源於一個古老的神話：當時，日本第11代天 皇垂仁天皇在一次生病時，聽聞遙遠的彼岸之國「 常世 國」，有一種四季都散發著香氣的果實「 非時香果 」，便 命一位名叫田道間守的臣子，尋找這種可長生不老的治 病聖藥。田道間守費盡了千辛萬苦，花了10年找尋，終於 找到了非時香果的樹枝和果實。無奈回鄉之際，天皇早 已駕崩，於是這位忠臣將非時香果栽種在皇陵旁後，便 跟隨著天皇的腳步了結了一生。
Worshipped as the “god of sweets,” Tajimamori was the legendary figure associated with the origin of wagashi. (Public domain)

Doliba explained that Kyiv’s cityscape is unique and diverse: “The buildings and streets of the Ukrainian capital combine more than 30 different architectural styles, [including] gothic, baroque, Moorish revival, Russian classicism style, and art nouveau. The best European, Russian, and Ukrainian architects and artists worked on the buildings.” Doliba went on to graduate from Kyiv’s National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in 1994, from the architecture department, where she learned to draft everything in the traditional way, by hand, for which she is immensely grateful. In recent years, she returned to see her old teachers in the Ukraine and learned that since the advent of computer-aided design, many architectural students no longer draw by hand. Although she draws in pencil, pastels, and charcoal, and paints in acrylics and oils, three years ago, the now New Jersey-based artist began to draw in silverpoint. It is now her specialty. Her work is held in private collections in America, Europe, and Egypt (where she lived for more than 16 years).
基輔的都市景觀非常獨特且多變： 「 烏克蘭首都的建 築物和街道結合了超過 30 種不同的建築風格，包含哥德 式、巴洛克、新摩爾式、俄羅斯古典和新藝術風格，都 是由歐洲、俄羅斯和烏克蘭最好的建築師和藝術家們建 造的。」 她於 1994 年畢業自基輔的國立美術與建築藝術大學 （National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture）， 從建築系學會了如何用傳統的方法，也就是徒手描繪所有 東西。她最近回到烏克蘭拜訪以前的老師，才知道自從電 腦輔助設計問世以來，很多建築系學生已不再用手繪了。 儘管她早已擅長使用鉛筆、粉彩、炭筆、壓克力和油彩作 畫。約 3 年前，她開始使用銀針筆繪畫，現長居於美國新 澤西的她，已是該領域專家了，其許多作品被美國、歐洲 和埃及（她在那裡生活了 16 年）的私人收藏家蒐藏。 關於金屬針筆 銀針筆最早出現在中世紀的意大利，曾是一種非常熱門 的繪畫形式，達文西等著名畫家都曾使用這種技法，做 出非常精采的效果。在歐洲北部，像是德國的阿爾布雷 希特�杜勒（Albrecht Dürer）和漢斯�霍爾拜因（Hans Holbein）等畫家，也都製作過精美的銀針筆畫。 金屬針筆畫家使用的是金、銅、鉛或銀製的金屬棒， 頂端削磨成尖，尖頭在紙上會留下具有光澤的金屬痕跡。
ABOUT METALPOINT Silverpoint first emerged in medieval Italy, where it became a popular drawing medium, used with magnificent effect by the likes of Leonardo da Vinci. In northern Europe, German artists Albrecht Dürer and Hans Holbein the Elder rendered splendid silverpoint drawings. A metalpoint artist uses a fine metal rod of gold, copper, lead, or silver, shaped to a point at the end in order to draw, leaving a metallic mark that shimmers in response to light. An artist needs to be a skilled draftsman to use metalpoint, as any errors are almost impossible to erase or correct because the metalpoint is used over a previously applied ground, which is a layer of opaque paint that sometimes has added pigment. The ground, in simple terms, allows the metalpoint to make a mark, as drawing without it—with silver, for example, on unprepared paper—doesn’t leave a visible mark. In Renaissance times, bone ash and pigment were ground down and made into a paste with water, which was then mixed with animal glue and applied as a ground to the metalpoint drawing support (a panel or paper, for instance). A self-confessed perfectionist, Doliba loves silverpoint because it allows her to render exquisite
像這樣的藝術家，首先必須是個熟練的製圖員，因為這 是以金屬筆針，在上了一層不透明漆的紙上作畫，有時 漆中也會加一點顏料，一旦有錯就很難清掉或修改。 簡單來說，這層塗料的功用，就是讓針筆的金屬頭 能夠在紙上留下痕跡，如果沒有這層漆，這樣的金屬在 一般紙上是不會留下線條的。在文藝復興時期，人們是 將骨灰和顏料磨碎，加水製成糊狀物後混入明膠，將其 抹在畫紙或畫板上來進行金屬針筆畫。 自認完美主義者的多利巴之所以會愛上銀針筆，就 是因為這種技巧可以讓她在建築繪畫中，呈現出高度精美 的細節。她解釋，銀針筆繪圖是個相當緩慢的過程，而 且要畫出作品中那些大量的細節需要花很多時間。譬如， 她的《紐約中央公園畢士達廣場》 （Bethesda Terrace Central Park, NYC）這幅作品，若包含中間休息時間， 總共約花了 4 至 5 週。她並沒有仔細計算每件作品實際 花費的時間，因為整個過程對她來說，完全是一種享受。 灰階 在專注於銀針筆前，多利巴曾大量使用鉛筆創作。銀針 筆和鉛筆的畫法其實很類似，她說，使用銀針筆時，第 一筆畫下去很像灰色鉛筆痕，儘管它帶有金屬光澤，而 且沒辦法像鉛筆一樣可以不斷加深。在她一開始進行銀 針筆畫時，她的女兒曾評論其作品說：「 你的畫全部都 是灰的。」確實，多利巴早期的作品都是單色調，但畫 中氛圍仍非常濃厚。 │37

DAVID CHAN, VIOLINIST EXTRAORDINAIRE Bringing people together with the beauty of classical music 前行不止 方知柳暗花明 專訪大都會歌劇院管弦樂團首席——詹曉昀 English by Angela Feng | Chinese by Cora Wang Pictures courtesy of David Chan
A
s one of the most celebrated violinists of his generation, David Chan is also a rising star in the world of orchestral conducting. After receiving his bachelor’s degree from Harvard University and his master’s from the Juilliard School, he went on to perform on prestigious stages across North America, Europe, and Asia. He is a concertmaster of New York’s Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, where he’s served for more than 20 years. He is in his fourth year as the music director of the Montclair Orchestra in New Jersey. Despite his accomplishments, Chan maintains a humble heart and a desire to continually grow as a musician. His passion for music has never ceased, even with COVID-19 putting a temporary stop to live performances. “During this pandemic, if you don’t truly love what you do, then it’s hard to find the motivation to keep going,” he said in an interview with Elite Lifestyle Magazine.
攤開其履歷，小提琴家詹曉昀有著許多過人的成就，但 他認為在古典音樂圈內「 有名是非常相對的概念 」，這 項事實，能讓他時刻保持謙虛。他在哈佛大學就讀電腦 工程的四年間，堅持往返紐約學習音樂，雖在 1995 年 畢業 後 順利進 入高薪 職 場，為了音樂毅然選 擇 離職， 進入 茱麗 亞音樂學院攻 讀 碩士學 位，如今身任該校名 師。他在享有盛譽的紐約大都會歌劇院管弦樂團（The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra）擔任樂團首席已逾 20 年。目前定居於新澤西地區，在當地的蒙特克萊樂團 （The Montclair Orchestra）擔任音樂總監一職。 音樂夢與命定之路 詹曉昀雙親來自臺灣，他們在美國求學時相遇，而後移 民，聖地亞哥則是他成長的故鄉。回想起自己最初接觸 音樂的契機，他表示，父母只是希望他能有一技之長，並 非有意將他培養成音樂家。他也曾像其他同齡的少年一 樣，更喜歡在球場上度過課外時光，因此面對俄國名師 嚴苛的提琴訓練時，曾經想過逃避與放棄。不過當時父 母鼓勵他——你可以不用勉強自己過度練習，但不要選 擇完全放棄。於是，詹曉昀按照自己的步調，在音樂路上

中指跟心臟有關，在中醫理論中，心主神志，時常 按摩中指，會使頭腦清晰，增強記憶力。除此之外，心 情好了，也能大大提升睡眠品質。 再來就是無名指，按壓無名指能養護肺臟，因此不 容易得咳嗽、氣喘等毛病。中醫常說「 肺跟大腸相表裡 」 （ 肺為內臟，大腸則為外腑，肺經與大腸經表裡相接，行 走肺經的氣血會流注至大腸經內，因此兩者相互影響 ），

five fingers and the five vital organs: The thumb corresponds to the spleen, the index finger corresponds to the liver, the middle finger corresponds to the heart, the ring finger corresponds to the lungs, and the pinkie associates with the kidney. Massaging your fingers can do wonders for these five organs. With your index and middle fingers, hold each finger of the other hand by its sides, between the fingernail and the joint just below it. Gently rub this area for 10 seconds. Repeat this numerous times a day.

THE FINGERS CONNECT TO THE ORGANS The thumb connects to the spleen and stomach. Massaging it boosts metabolism, promotes better nutrient absorption from food, and stimulates smoother bowel movements. Alongside these benefits, massaging the thumb can enhance the immune system. The index finger corresponds to the liver, which in turn affects the eyes and fingernails. Through gently rubbing the part of the index finger, between the nail and the joint, not only does the liver get nourished, but so do the eyes. They’ll brim with more vigor. Especially during this pandemic, with our faces partially covered, clear, healthy eyes certainly brighten up our outward image. The middle finger connects to the heart. As recorded in traditional Chinese medicine studies, the heart is in charge of one's spirit and consciousness. Massaging the middle finger can clear the mind, leading to better sleep and improved memory. By massaging the ring finger, we can take better care of our lungs to prevent problems such as coughing and asthma. Traditional Chinese medicine studies found that the lungs and the large intestines have a correlation. The qi and the blood of the lungs flow to the large intestines, which establishes
甲風格，華麗風、可愛風都有。 但好景不常，最近看她老戴著手套，後來才知道， 因為她長期戴著水晶指甲感染了「 綠膿桿菌 」，她的拇 指、食指的指甲都變成墨綠色，這就是「 甲溝炎 」。水晶 指甲的造型越複雜，就越可能對指甲造成負擔、傷害，做 水晶指甲的人一定要注意定期卸除，讓指甲適度休息。 認識護甲好食材、食帖 養好肝，指甲就健康。據《黃帝內經》 〈六節藏象論〉中 記載： 「 肝者，罷極之本，魂之居也，其華在爪，其充在 筋，以生血氣。」其華在爪之「 爪 」就是指甲，肝的血是 專門養爪的，意思是指甲的營養，來源於肝血，肝血充足 指甲就能夠堅韌、不易斷裂、紅潤有光澤；肝血不足，指 甲軟又薄，沒有光澤，容易變形、脆裂。肝功能好、肝血 好的話，指甲自然就漂亮。 「 核桃 」有補腎養肝的效果，對於美甲非常有幫助， 但也不宜攝入太多，一天大概 7、8 顆即可； 「 香蕉 」也 可以使指甲變得更光滑、更富有光澤。中藥材「 熟地 」， 就是經過炮製的地黃，所以叫作「 熟地黃 」，熟地有補血 養肝滋陰的功效，幫助指甲的生長速度，讓指甲變得光 滑油亮。 中醫的「 四物湯 」有補血、去瘀血的作用，也有護 肝的功效，因而也能滋養指甲。 「 四物湯 」就是用熟地、 當歸、川芎跟芍藥，四種藥材共煮。把這些藥材各抓二 錢（ 約 7.5 克 ）就好，也不要多，煮得比較稀一點，加 │49

hen designer Caroline Gidiere renovated three often-used spaces in the home of an entertaining maven and grandmother of 14 young children, she knew beauty had to remain front and center and yet share the stage with practicality and comfort. BEAUTY AND BALANCE Gidiere’s client keeps a busy social calendar that includes large fundraisers at her Mountain Brook home in Alabama. All the while, her grandchildren who are no older than 11 years stop in regularly after school. So the great room’s makeover had a balancing act to perform. Perform it does, thanks to special fabrics and textile sealants throughout the room. Gidiere aimed for a neutral and sophisticated feeling here, beginning with a delightful pair of persimmon-and-white chinoiserie vase lamps. She then layered on patterns, textures, and colors. Sage green provides just the right complementary touch.

股票投資隨筆（二）：特斯拉股票的炒作 文 宋仁
特斯拉（Tesla）用不到一年，其股票價格從 40 多漲到 800 多美元，翻了 20 多倍，市值到了 6 千多億美元， 比兩個日本豐田汽車公司還值錢。但特斯拉公司汽車年 銷售量，不及豐田的十分之一，利潤就更不成比例了，這 一切使好多人不解。也有許多投資者，希望能從中找出 些蛛絲馬跡，尋覓下一個股票價格還沒有開始飛行的「 特 斯拉 」，好發一筆小財，本文就把該公司主要的炒作原 因稍作分析。 （ 一）美國是發達國家中股票炒作最盛行的 其實，發展中國家股票市場的炒作是最離譜的，因為那 裡的股市，沒有什麼真正的投資規律可言。市場的參與 者都是賭徒心態，唯一的追求，是找可炒作的題材，賺 了錢隨時準備跑，所以單個股票炒作的週期，一般都比
