《热风》是鲁迅的第一本杂文集，收录了41篇他于1918－1924年间发表的短文。这些文章长短不一，题材广泛，灵活多变，风格辛辣尖锐，大大发展重塑了杂文这一文学体裁，在新文化运动中起了重要作用。This is the first collection of short essays/commentaries by Lu Xun. It contains 41 articles he published between 1918-1924. Sharp, poignant, varying vastly on their topic, length, and style, these articles redefined the genre of 'essay' in Chinese literature, as well as played an important part in the new cultural movement. (Summary by Jing Li)

Bible (Reina Valera) 28-39: Los 12 Profetas Menores by REINA-VALERA ( - ) Genre(s): Bibles Read by: Joyfull, Mongope in Spanish Chapters: 00:00:00 - 01 - Oseas 00:34:21 - 02 - Joel 00:48:30 - 03 - Amos 01:16:12 - 04 - Abdias 01:20:51 - 05 - Jonas 01:29:45 - 06 - Miqueas 01:49:25 - 07 - Nahum 01:58:59 - 08 - Habacuc 02:09:40 - 09 - Sofonias 02:21:22 - 10 - Hageo 02:29:30 - 11 - Zacarias 03:08:36 - 12 - Malaquias Los Profetas Menores o los Doce Profetas (en arameo: תרי עשר, Trei Asar, 'Los Doce'), ocasionalmente llamado Libro de los Doce, es el último libro de la Nevi'im, la segunda división principal del Tanaj o Biblia judía. La colección se divide para formar doce libros individuales en el Antiguo Testamento cristiano, uno para cada uno de los profetas. Los términos 'profetas menores' y 'doce profetas' también puede referirse a los doce autores tradicionales de estas obras.El término 'menor' se refiere a la longitud de cada libro (que van desde un solo capítulo a catorce), e incluso el más largo es corto en comparación con los de los cuatro profetas mayores, (Isaias, Ezequiel, Jeremias y Daniel). No se sabe cuando fueron recopiladas estas obras cortas y trasladadas a un solo rollo, pero la primera evidencia extra-bíblica que tenemos de estos textos como colección fue aproximadamente hacia 190 A.C. en los escritos de Jesus Ben Sirac. La evidencia de los Rollos del Mar Muerto sugiere que el orden moderno fue establecido en 150 A.C.: se cree que inicialmente fueron recogidos los seis primeros, y más tarde se agregaron los otros seis. Los dos grupos parecen complementarse entre sí.

It consists of three novellas based on the lives of country clergymen and their communities. These characters interest Eliot not for their theology — she had abandoned conventional Christian belief — but for their humanity. In these stories, we find the earliest signs of the narrative voice, the humanism, and the realism that would make George Eliot one of the greatest novelists of the 1800s.

Het oorspronkelijke boek bevatte vier reisbeschrijvingen, waarvan alleen de eerste, over het land Lilliput, nu nog grote bekendheid geniet. In deze uitgave zijn alleen de eerste twee delen van het oorspronkelijke werk opgenomen. Het tweede deel heet ‘Een reis naar Brobdingnag'. (Samenvatting door Wikipedia en Bart de Leeuw)Tijdens de productie schreef Marcel Coenders, die de tekstcontrole van dit boek verzorgde: 'Een mooi boek. Uiteraard kennen we allemaal de een-regel-samenvatting van dit boek: Gulliver gaat op reis in Liliputterland en in Reuzenland. Goed om het verhaal nu eens in een vollere omvang te beluisteren. Zeker geen kinderboekje.' More information: http://librivox.org/gullivers-reizen-by-jonathan-swift/

Vindication Of The Rights Of Men, In A Letter To The Right Honourable Edmund Burke; Occasioned By His Reflections On The Revolution In France by Mary WOLLSTONECRAFT (1759 - 1797) Genre(s): Political Science, Psychology, Social Science (Culture & Anthropology) Read by: David Wales in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 00 - Advertisement 00:01:40 - 01 - Part 1 00:35:14 - 02 - Part 2 01:19:37 - 03 - Part 3 02:04:39 - 04 - Part 4 Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Men (1790) attacks aristocracy and advocates republicanism. It was published in response to Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France (1790), which was a defence of constitutional monarchy, aristocracy, and the Church of England, and an attack on Wollstonecraft's friend, the Rev Richard Price. Hers was the first response in a pamphlet war that subsequently became known as the Revolution Controversy, in which Thomas Paine's Rights of Man (1792) became the rallying cry for reformers and radicals. Wollstonecraft attacked not only monarchy and hereditary privilege but also the language that Burke used to defend and elevate it. Wollstonecraft was unique in her attack on Burke's gendered language. In her arguments for republican virtue, Wollstonecraft invokes an emerging middle-class ethos in opposition to what she views as the vice-ridden aristocratic code of manners. Influenced by Enlightenment thinkers, she believed in progress and derides Burke for relying on tradition and custom. She argues for rationality. The Rights of Men was Wollstonecraft's first overtly political work, as well as her first feminist work; as Wollstonecraft scholar Claudia L.Johnson contends, 'it seems that in the act of writing the later portions of Rights of Men she discovered the subject that would preoccupy her for the rest of her career.' It was this text that made her a well-known writer. (Note: For the sake of clarity in listening the author's extensive and informative footnotes have been omitted in this recording.) - Summary by David Wales More information: https://librivox.org/vindication-of-the-rights-of-men-by-mary-wollstonecraft/ LibriVox - free public domain audiobooks (https://librivox.org/)

This was the Weekly Poetry project for November 27, 2011.Amy Lawrence Lowell (February 9, 1874 - May 12, 1925) was an American poet of the imagist school from Brookline, Massachusetts who posthumously won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1926. Lowell was born into Brookline's prominent Lowell family, sister to astronomer Percival Lowell and Harvard president Abbott Lawrence Lowell.She never attended college because her family did not consider that proper for a woman, but she compensated with avid reading and near-obsessive book collecting. She lived as a socialite and travelled widely, turning to poetry in 1902 after being inspired by a performance of Eleonora Duse in Europe. In the post-World War II years, Lowell, like other women writers, was largely forgotten, but with the renaissance of the women's movement in the 1970s, women's studies brought her back to light. According to Heywood Broun, however, Lowell personally argued against feminism. Her poem, 'Petals' is published in her collection A Dome of Many-Colored Glass (1912).

He was a man who seemed to know everything about human nature and as Orson Welles said ‘he speaks to everyone and we all claim him'. I know that it has been said that ‘it is impossible to be a great Shakespearian actor without an idiosyncratic and extraordinary voice' and this may be so, but that does not preclude ordinary mortals from reading, hearing and enjoying Shakespeare.

Three Soldiers by John Dos PASSOS (1896 - 1970) Genre(s): Historical Fiction, War & Military Fiction Read by: mb in English Chapters: 00:00:00 - 01 - Section 1 00:47:41 - 02 - Section 2 01:27:01 - 03 - Section 3 02:01:05 - 04 - Section 4 03:01:58 - 05 - Section 5 03:54:33 - 06 - Section 6 04:41:47 - 07 - Section 7 05:27:06 - 08 - Section 8 06:13:09 - 09 - Section 9 Three Soldiers is a 1920 novel by the American writer and critic John Dos Passos. It is one of the key American war novels of the First World War, and remains a classic of the realist war novel genre. H.L. Mencken, then practicing primarily as an American literary critic, praised the book in the pages of the Smart Set. 'Until Three Soldiers is forgotten and fancy achieves its inevitable victory over fact, no war story can be written in the United States without challenging comparison with it--and no story that is less meticulously true will stand up to it. At one blast it disposed of oceans of romance and blather. It changed the whole tone of American opinion about the war; it even changed the recollections of actual veterans of the war. They saw, no doubt, substantially what Dos Passos saw, but it took his bold realism to disentangle their recollections from the prevailing buncombe and sentimentality.'
