"Hard Times" by Charles Dickens [UNABRIDGED AUDIOBOOK WITH TEXT]

"Hard Times" by Charles Dickens [UNABRIDGED AUDIOBOOK WITH TEXT] "Hard Times"
by Charles Dickens
[UNABRIDGED AUDIOBOOK WITH TEXT]
Despite the title, Dickens's portrayal of early industrial society here is less relentlessly grim than that in novels by contemporaries such as Elizabeth Gaskell or Charles Kingsley. Hard Times weaves the tale of Thomas Gradgrind, a hard-headed politician who raises his children Louisa and Tom without love, of Sissy the circus girl with love to spare who is deserted and adopted into their family, and of the honest mill worker Stephen Blackpool and the bombastic mill owner Josiah Bounderby. The key contrasts created are finally less those between wealth and poverty, or capitalists and workers, than those between the head and the heart, between "Fact" - the cold, rationalistic approach to life that Dickens associates with utilitarianism - and "Fancy" - a warmth of the imagination and of the feelings, which values individuals above ideas.

Here is the abridged version of this book:

Misery by Stephen King [UNABRIDGED AUDIOBOOK WITH TEXT]After a car crash, writer Paul Sheldon is saved by his number one fan. She brought him home, splinted his mangled legs, and all he had to do in return was write a very special book, one all about her favourite character. Because if he didn't, if he was bad, she would be cross - very cross.

Plato, Socrates, and the Dialogues
(16 audio lectures, 45 minutes/lecture)

Taught by Michael Sugrue
Princeton University
Ph.D., Columbia University

Тем, кто готовится обучаться или стажироваться в американских или британских университетах, а также всем образованным людям, интересующимся не только своей специальностью и английским языком, но также идеями, лежащими в основе европейской философии и культуры, мы предоставляем ещё одну возможность попрактиковаться в восприятии на слух лекций научного и научно-популярного характера.

Любовь Сократа к истине была столь велика, что отказу от поиска истины он предпочел смерть. Хотя Сократ собственноручно не записал ни единой из своих мыслей и теорий, его блистательный ученик Платон обессмертил наследие учителя в написанных им 35 "Диалогах ", по-прежнему нестареющей книге, которая, наряду с "Библией" , легла в основу западной цивилизации. По меткому выраженияю Альфреда Норта Уайтхеда, "вся философия не что иное, как комментарии к Платону."
Профессор Michael Sugrue из Princeton University сумел донести до слушателей живой голос истины, перед нами обсуждение мылей, актуальность которых в наши дни ничуть не меньше, чем 25 веков назад. Это размышления об истине, справедливости, любви, красоте, мужестве и мудрости. Это идеи, которые могут изменить жизнь каждого из нас и предстать в новом свете для каждого, кто впервые соприкоснулся с ними. "Диалоги", наряду с "Библией", вероятно, наиболее часто цитируемая и изученная книга из корпуса литературы Западного мира. [see original page]
