Ancient Worlds is about people and places, politics and economics, art and war, trade and technology, but above all it’s the story of the painful birth and difficult growth of a radical idea first tried and tested some six thousand years ago, and which we are still struggling with today; civilisation. Civilisation has not come easily; it’s something we’ve had to fight hard to achieve, and even harder to maintain, and the greatest threats to it have come from our own talents for destruction. But when we’ve managed to get it right, the benefits have been enormous. When we talk about the ancient world we tend to think of rare and exotic artefacts or the monumental remains of epic architecture; but these are just the empty shells that got left behind when the tide of history turned! The living creatures, the civilisations, that once inhabited these shells were rarely if ever static or stately; they were dynamic, chaotic, and always threatening to spin out of control, because civilisation is based on an improbable idea; that strangers can live and work together in dense urban settings, forging new allegiances that replace the natural ties of family, clan or tribe. It’s an idea we’re still coming to terms with today, but one of the best ways to understand the challenges that are involved is to look at how our ancestors tackled them the first time around. From ancient Iraq to Imperial Rome, Ancient Worlds examines how our ancestors struggled with the levers of religion and politics, art and culture, war and diplomacy, technology and trade in order to keep the complex machinery of their civilisations turning over. Their insights and blind-spots, their breakthroughs and dead ends, their triumphs and disasters are the milestones on the long and winding road that leads directly from their ancient to our modern world.

他们在台湾与越南之间漂浪迁徙，寻求更好的生活。有选择或没有选择地，在这距离越南1700多公里远的岛屿落锚，成为我们。 没办法选择在哪里出生，定邦流着台湾爸爸和越南妈妈的血液，边打工边自学，跌跌撞撞，朝着成为电影导演的梦想前进；北越的小芳、南越的金线，选择与台湾人结婚，养儿育女，操持夫家生意，为家庭累积理想未来的资本；曾在台湾帮佣多年的阿问，回越南后盖了三层楼的家，视野已经不同的她，即使借钱也要让两个儿子文山、文进再到台湾工作，见识外面的世界。 来往台湾和越南的他们，见证两地经济环境的快速变化，感受复杂的人际冲突与冷暖，用生命写下跨国移动的一行短句，也成为我们生活中的寻常风景。 我们不一样，拥有不同的条件与机会。相同的是，不确定自己的选择对不对，不知道未来在何方，也许在台湾，也许在越南。 我们都一样，以个人微小的力量，在广大的世界里求生存。移民和移工，如落地的水笔仔，只要有水，就能活。未来，也许就从这里的生活开始。
