"The Decline of the West - Volume 2: Perspectives of World-History" (1922) by Oswald Spengler, narrated by Peter Wickham In the second and more controversial, albeit optimistic, volume of The Decline of the West, Oswald Spengler deals with the world historical perspectives of his comparative cultural morphology. The periodical calm surrounding the constant and eternally recurring movements, described in the first volume, is over. Spengler develops his theory of "Caesarism" - a tendency towards dictatorship peculiar to mass democracy. According to Spengler, today we live in the decadent stage of civilization. Previously, the people of culture used money for buying and selling while their main thoughts and occupations lay elsewhere. The people of civilization, however, exclusively think in terms of money and nothing else. That is why our period is also marked by rapacious oligarchs, cunning stock market manipulation, a flourishing art trade and boundless corruption. Only the return of the eternal values of blood and race, through the coming of the Caesars, can destroy the tyranny of the financial mind. Thus Caesarism will bring the victory of strength politics over capital, breaking the pecuniary power and promoting national welfare. The scene is set for the final battle between the forces of plutocracy and chaos and the political will and order of the Caesars.

"Europe: A History" by Norman Davies, narrated by Derek Perkins "Here is a masterpiece of historical narrative that stretches from the Ice Age to the Atomic Age, as it tells the story of Europe, East and West. Norman Davies captures it all - the rise and fall of Rome, the sweeping invasions of Alaric and Atilla, the Norman Conquests, the Papal struggles for power, the Renaissance and the Reformation, the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars, Europe's rise to become the powerhouse of the world, and its eclipse in our own century, following two devastating World Wars. This is the first major history of Europe to give equal weight to both East and West, and it shines light on fascinating minority communities, from heretics and lepers to Gypsies, Jews, and Muslims. It also takes an innovative approach, combining traditional narrative with unique features that help bring history alive: 299 time capsules scattered through the narrative capture telling aspects of an era, and 12 snapshots offer a panoramic look at all of Europe at a particular moment in history. All told, Davies's Europe represents one of the most important and illuminating histories to be published in recent years." ©1996, 1997 Norman Davies / ℗ 2019 Tantor U.S. Fair Use: for educational and research purposes only Follow vrilpilled: Twitter - https://twitter.com/vrilpilled Gab - https://gab.com/vrilpilled Telegram - https://t.me/vrilpilled BitChute - https://www.bitchute.com/channel/vrilpilled/ Odysee - https://odysee.com/@vrilpilled:a DASH: XmB3LYPoQVfbdg77pSKU8CHS2NFkUVwZoi XMR: 49QtgnScKy95LPx5EN2xAnHFQzXFVNt3RJfPN3bPimxM5kmSQCDLiKHciZ9wmHdm7AAxr3HKtkgo41NVAPSSoMgx48iDAXq ZEC: t1MVGWQB5c6k7eSxG9KKcSaierw1RdHUmDj ZEN: znbhdEsBa9wZqppYRxqRgNb6PECjCcCSfKx

"The Kybalion: A Study of the Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece" by Three Initiates, narrated by Arthur Rowan Since its publication in 1908, "The Kybalion" has served as a cornerstone for the study of the basic Hermetic teachings that outline ageless wisdom and touch upon the very inner workings of nature. Based on the ancient Greek "Corpus Hermetica" texts, which compile the Egyptian and Greek philosophical concepts originally attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, "The Kybalion" attempts to distill the axioms and principles described therein in a way that may be more readily understood by modern students of Hermetic Philosophy. The authors of "The Kybalion" chose not to associate their names with the book, possibly because the principles and philosophy it outlines cannot be accredited to any person. Some say Paul Foster Case is an author... other stories suggest that William Walker Atkinson is also one or even possibly the sole author of the text. Ultimately, their identity is irrelevant, for it is the message "The Kybalion" brings that holds importance and brings to light fundamental concepts that have formed the basis of many subsequent western philosophies and belief systems.
