Book Synopsis
This book seeks the roots of four keywords. By exploring these keywords in English and 'equivalent keywords' in Chinese, German, French and Czech, this book helps us to understand how other languages are adapting to English words, and how their worldviews resist 'anglo-concepts' through their own traditions, stories and worldviews.
