Richard Wright- Black BoyRichard Wright- Black Boy

Black Boy is a classic of American autobiography, a subtly crafted narrative of Richard Wright's journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. An enduring story of one young man's coming off age during a particular time and place, Black Boy remains a seminal text in our history about what it means to be a man, black, and Southern in America.

Narrated by Peter Francis James

The Story of Euclid

The Story of EuclidThe Story of Euclid

Euclid's birthplace and dates are not known, however his famous book, The Elements, is dated about 300 BC. There is little hard information about Euclid's life. He is thought to have studied in Athens at the school established by Plato, and therefore would have learnt his geometry from the students of Plato.

Euclid probably supported himself teaching geometry. He eventually moved to Alexandria where the greatest library in the ancient world was also the most important site of learning at the time. It is here that Euclid composed The Elements.
