2012年，日本30~45岁女性未婚率再创新高，而在这个群体中，有一部分人则抱定了不结婚的信念生活。年届35岁的旅行社合同工田中千春（菅野美穗 饰）自5年前平平淡淡结束一段恋情以来，似乎始终没找到结婚的感觉和动力；44岁的庭园设计师桐岛春子（天海祐希 饰）曾与上司有过不伦之恋，但她始终坚定作一个事业至上的不婚主义者；32岁的花店职员工藤纯平（玉木宏 饰）一直认为结婚后会失去更多空闲时间，温柔亲和的他乐得单身，悠闲自在。在命运的驱使下这三个人相识相知，可是婚活战线、工作调动、旧日梦想让他们重新审视各自的人生选择。 当今时代下青年男女群像，无论几多考验与磨难，他们的笑容一如阳光般绽放……。Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。
