Der Dichter Florio trifft in Lucca auf die schöne Bianka, in die er sich augenblicklich verliebt.

Immer wieder zieht es Florio zu der steinernen Figur, die sich in seinen Augen schließlich in eine bezaubernde Frau aus Fleisch und Blut verwandelt.

British statesman Benjamin Disraeli delivered this commanding speech in 1872. His imperialistic ideals informed his Conservative political platform as he advocated for maintaining the British Empire. He asked his audience if they were content to be a “comfortable England,” or if they preferred the glory of remaining “a great country - an imperial country - a country where your sons, when they rise, rise to paramount positions, and obtain not merely the esteem of their countrymen, but command the respect of the world.” Listen to Disraeli’s stirring words for yourself to see how the British majority felt swayed by his talk of greatness.

Die Nacht schreibt uns neu, Hörbuch, Digital, 756min
Emma macht sich bereit für ihren großen Tag. Die Wimperntusche in ihrer Hand zittert ein wenig, aber ein bisschen Nervosität ist ganz normal, oder? Beim Blick in den Spiegel tasten Emmas Finger automatisch nach der alten Narbe dicht unter ihrem Haaransatz. Das sichtbare Andenken an die Nacht, die ihr Leben verändert hat. Und nicht nur ihres. Emma erinnert sich: An den furchtbaren Unfall auf dem Heimweg von ihrem Junggesellinnenabschied, an den Tod ihrer Freundin Amy, an ihren Retter Jack, an Richards liebevolle Reaktion, als sie ihn gebeten hat, die Hochzeit zu verschieben. Und an alles, was danach kam. Schließlich klopft es an der Tür. Jemand ist gekommen, um Emma nach unten zu führen. Wer? Lassen Sie sich überraschen! deutsch.

Decision in Philadelphia: The Constitutional Convention of 1787 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 783min
Fifty-five men met in Philadelphia in 1787 to write a document that would create a country and change a world: the Constitution. Here is a remarkable rendering of that fateful time, told with humanity and humor. Decision in Philadelphia is the best popular history of the Constitutional Convention; in it, the life and times of 18th-century America not only come alive, but the very human qualities of the men who framed the document are brought provocatively into focus - casting many of the Founding Fathers in a new light. A celebration of how and why our Constitution came into being, Decision in Philadelphia is also a testament of the American spirit at its finest. ungekürzt. Language: English.

My Dogs and Guns , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 97min
This memorable book by one of our finest writers chronicles two passions: one for a dog named "Blue," another for the "guns of a lifetime." "Blue and Some Other Dogs" is a brilliant memoir about Graves' Basque-Australian sheep dog. "Guns of a Lifetime" tells the stories related to the guns this octogenarian Texan has owned, beginning with a "rusted and cylinderless" revolver. "So here are the stories," Graves writes. "They are not all 'nice' tales in contemporary terms. Political correctness, as presently defined, may be perpetrated here and there, though I hope no parts will seem like the maunderings of a Deep South redneck. But if they do, the hell with it. I am too old to fret about such matters." It's delightful writing from a treasure of a writer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Thomas M. Perkins.
