The Genius by Theodore DREISER (1871 - 1945) Genre(s): General Fiction, Romance Read by: Richard Kilmer in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 93 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 20 00:10:29 - 94 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 21 00:31:00 - 95 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 22 01:04:08 - 96 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 23 01:22:10 - 97 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 24 01:47:36 - 98 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 25 02:10:43 - 99 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 26 02:41:29 - 100 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 27 03:19:27 - 101 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 28 03:44:53 - 102 - Book 3 - Revolt - Chapter 29 03:49:34 - 103 - L'ENVOI 'The only figure of literary repute who ever rated The 'Genius' as first among the novels of Theodore Dreiser was Theodore Dreiser,' literary historian Larzer Ziff observed. His fifth published novel, The 'Genius' was actually the third novel Dreiser began work on and, as his most autobiographical work, remained the novel closest to his heart. He worked on it in stages over a four-year period. The credit he felt he deserved (and did not receive) for his honesty about sexual urges and damaged relationships and his original publisher's decision not to stand by the novel in the face of criticism contributed to his lifelong feeling that the book had never been given its due. After An American Tragedy, it is his longest book; the final draft ran to over 700 pages in a close-set type. While the protagonist of the book is in many ways a portrait of its author, Dreiser also loosely based Eugene Witla on some of the painters, artists working in an Ashcan realist style, whom he knew in New York at the time and whose studios he visited. The most likely candidate for a model is Everett Shinn, who painted urban scenes of the kind attributed to Witla and who was known as a promiscuous man.The novel is divided intro three sections: 'Youth,' 'Struggle,' and 'Revolt.' In Book I, Eugene Witla (like Sister Carrie, in Dreiser's earlier novel) escapes the confines of the small town in Illinois where he has been raised to make his way in Chicago. There he studies painting at the Chicago Art Institute and enjoys the excitement of the city and his first sexual experiences. He becomes engaged to a young woman, Angela Blue, with whom he is intimate before their marriage but, at all times, he finds it difficult to remain faithful. A life based on monogamy seems beyond him. In Book II, Eugene and Angela move to New York City, where he makes a name for himself in the art world as an urban realist but finds his marriage with the increasingly conventional Angela painfully limiting. They travel to Europe, he suffers a breakdown, and they return to New York where Eugene attempts to make a better living in the advertising world. Book III chronicles the deterioration of Eugene and Angela's marriage as he begins an affair with Suzanne Dale.

Michaels, Thomas Rose, VfkaBT, Ivan Avetissian, Ian Bradford Ngotngotaha Pugh, Miranda Johnson, Klaatu, Jeff Burke, Colleen McMahon, Dale Grothmann, Gerwin Kramer, Thomas Ermon, Matt Bounds in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 19 - The Eyes Have It 00:07:23 - 20 - Prelude to Space Science fiction is a genre encompassing imaginative works that take place in this world or that of the author's creation where anything is possible. The only rules are those set forth by the author. The speculative nature of the genre inspires thought and plants seeds that have led to advances in science. The genre can spark an interest in the sciences and is cited as the impetus for the career choice of many scientists. It is a playing field to explore social perspectives, predictions of the future, and engage in adventures unbound into the richness of the human mind. - Summary by A.

The Life of St. Benedict by Pope Gregory I (540 - 604) Genre(s): Biography & Autobiography, Christianity - Biographies Read by: Patrick Randall in English Cover design by Patrick Randall. Chapters: 00:00:00 - 01 - Introduction and Chapters 1-2 00:20:34 - 02 - Chapters 3-5 00:43:07 - 03 - Chapters 6-8 01:01:31 - 04 - Chapters 9-15 01:20:31 - 05 - Chapters 16-21 01:42:24 - 06 - Chapters 22-27 02:02:21 - 07 - Chapters 28-33 02:26:12 - 08 - Chapters 34-38 St. Benedict of Nursia was a sixth century monk and founder of monastic communities. His main achievement, the 'Rule of St. Benedict,' became one of the most influential monastic rules in the West. St. Benedict is sometimes called the founder of Western monasticism. One of the only ancient accounts of St. Benedict is found in the second volume of Pope Gregory I's four-book Dialogues, thought to have been written in 593. Gregory's account of Benedict's life provides a spiritual portrait of the gentle, disciplined abbot. Gregory explains that his information came from what he considered the best sources: a handful of Benedict's disciples who lived with him and witnessed his various miracles. Gregory's Life of St. Benedict is an authentic medieval hagiography cast as a conversation between the Pope and his deacon Peter, designed to teach spiritual lessons. - Summary by Patrick Randall (adapted from Wikipedia articles on St. Benedict and Gregory's Dialogues) More information: https://librivox.org/the-life-of-st-benedict-by-pope-gregory-i/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

Mr. Harrison's Confessions by Elizabeth Cleghorn GASKELL (1810 - 1865) Genre(s): Fictional Biographies & Memoirs, Memoirs Read by: NoelBadrian in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 00 - 00 - The Last Generation in England 00:22:14 - 01 - 01 - Chapters 1 and 2 00:53:34 - 02 - 02 - Chapters 3 and 4 01:11:17 - 03 - 03 - Chapters 5 and 6 01:36:12 - 04 - 04 - Chapters 7 and 8 01:57:37 - 05 - 05 - Chapters 9 to 13 02:17:14 - 06 - 06 - Chapter 14 02:41:36 - 07 - 07 - Chapters 15 to 19 03:03:08 - 08 - 08 - Chapters 20 to 24 03:25:04 - 09 - 09 - Chapters 25 to 31 It is asserted that the inspiration for Elizabeth Gaskell's marvellous stories of Cranford was her childhood home of Knutsford, a small town in Cheshire and to where she returned for a while as a young woman. This assertion is born out by an essay she wrote in 1849 entitled The Last Generation in England, in which she writes about 'The town in which I once resided ...'. There can be little doubt when reading this that it provided her with the template for Cranford.In 1851 the year she began to write Cranford, she also wrote a novella entitled Mr. Harrison's Confessions. It describes the life of a country doctor in a small provincial town. Mrs. Gaskell's model for this town could also only have been Knutsford which she knew and loved so well. The story revolves around the arrival in the town of a young doctor and the attempts of the ladies of the town to place his status within their society and of course to find him a suitable wife. It is often thought of as a prequel to Cranford.Both of these pieces together with the novels, My Lady Ludlow and Cranford were used by the BBC to create the Television series Cranford in 2007.
