Taiwan Lifts Investment Threshold In China
"The Magic Mountain, published in 1924, is not a historical novel but a novel about history—about a time just past whose ramifications have yet to fully unfold. Mann chillingly foresaw the disintegrating faith in reason and the corresponding surrender to the irrational that only a few years later produced Adolf Hitler and caused Mann’s own books to be burned in Germany."

臺灣閾境性 ◎蕭新煌
-------------------------------------------------
本書作者是知名的法國台灣研究學者，他基於對台灣前途的關切，乃從歷史找尋未來，更從與中國的複雜關係理出過去的遭遇不必也不應為將來「宿命」之邏輯。關鍵在於當今台灣已為一個地緣政治的主體，更是一個有公民社會力量的新民主體制，也絕非17世紀末滅於清的在台的東寧王朝所能比擬的。本書想用閾境性（Liminality）來勾勒台灣歷史甚至今後的處境，自有其創意；面對中國崛起的台灣，當然也應該在對主體的堅持上，用更具創意的作為去處理兩者或許也可以有更創意的關係。
In some schools of Buddhism, bardo (Classical Tibetan: བར་དོ་ Wylie: bar do), antarabhāva (Sanskrit), or chūu (Japanese: 中有)[1] is an intermediate, transitional, or liminal state between death and rebirth. It is a concept which arose soon after the Buddha's passing, with a number of earlier Buddhist groups accepting the existence of such an intermediate state, while other schools rejected it. In Tibetan Buddhism, bardo is the central theme of the Bardo Thodol (literally Liberation Through Hearing During the Intermediate State), the Tibetan Book of the Dead.
中有（梵文：antarābhava，藏文：bardo），又稱稱作中陰、中蘊、中有身、中陰身，佛教術語，意指生命在死亡之後，到下一期生命開始之前的中間存在狀態。是生命輪迴的一部份，類似於一般所說的靈魂、鬼魂、魂魄、元神、細微身等，但佛教對它有自己的理論解說。

Liminality is a term used especially by the cultural anthropologist Victor Turner (1920–1983) to refer to rites of passage or rituals that mark the crossings of thresholds between various significant stages of human life. These events all have mythic ramifications. Christian Baptism, Jewish and Muslim circumcision, and the Navajo Kinaalda, for instance, are all liminal events with mythic connotations or origins. Christians are baptized because Jesus was, Jews are circumcised because of Yahweh's command to Abraham, the Navajo girl at puberty changes from girl to the Goddess Changing Woman.
