    The Ecclesiastical History of the English People , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 777min
    The Ecclesiastical History of the English People was written in Latin by the Venerable Bede (673-735), a Benedictine monk living in Northumbria, an important Christian centre in the eighth century. It is a remarkable document, tracing, in general, early Anglo-Saxon history, and in particular, as the title proclaims, the growth and establishment of Christianity against the backdrop of the political life. Bede finished it in 731 and immediately sent it to its dedicatee Ceolwulf, the king of Northumbria, who had expressed strong interest in the project. Bede starts his history, after a brief geographic description of the island, with the arrival of the Romans - first of all Caesar and then Claudius, through to Severus and Diocletian. He comments on the Christian persecution during Roman rule and recounts in some detail the martyrdom of St Alban. Bede explains how the withdrawal of Roman rule in the fifth century ushered in a period of great instability with incursions by the Scots and Picts, then the Germanic peoples, Angles, Saxons and Jutes. But he notes the important turning points in the sixth century, Augustine’s mission to convert the Anglo-Saxons, the continuing influence of Pope Gregory the Great; and in the seventh century, the decision at the Council of Whitby (in 664) that ecclesiastical rule would come from Rome rather than the monks in Ireland. Thereafter, the religious course of England was set. While religious developments are important to Bede - including his noted obsession with the timing of Easter - he does catalogue secular events and developments as well, and historians of our time regard his account as accurate and fascinating, giving us a fair picture of life in England in the days before Alfred the Great (847-899).This recording uses the classic revised translation by A.M. Sellar. It opens with a biography of the Venerable Bede himself - clearly a remarkable individual - including the contemporaneous accoun ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Wickham.

    What Happened , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1115min
    2018 Audie Award Finalist for Autobiography/Memoir and Excellence in Marketing"In the past, for reasons I try to explain, I've often felt I had to be careful in public, like I was up on a wire without a net. Now I'm letting my guard down." (Hillary Rodham Clinton, from the introduction of What Happened) For the first time, Hillary Rodham Clinton reveals what she was thinking and feeling during one of the most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections in history. Now free from the constraints of running, Hillary takes you inside the intense personal experience of becoming the first woman nominated for president by a major party in an election marked by rage, sexism, exhilarating highs and infuriating lows, stranger-than-fiction twists, Russian interference, and an opponent who broke all the rules. This is her most personal memoir yet. In this audiobook she describes what it was like to run against Donald Trump, the mistakes she made, how she has coped with a shocking and devastating loss, and how she found the strength to pick herself back up afterward. With humor and candor, she tells listeners what it took to get back on her feet - the rituals, relationships, and reading that got her through and what the experience has taught her about life. She speaks about the challenges of being a strong woman in the public eye, the criticism over her voice, age, and appearance, and the double standard confronting women in politics. She lays out how the 2016 election was marked by an unprecedented assault on our democracy by a foreign adversary. By analyzing the evidence and connecting the dots, Hillary shows just how dangerous the forces are that shaped the outcome and why Americans need to understand them to protect our values and our democracy in the future. The election of 2016 was unprecedented and historic. What Happened is the story of that campaign and its aftermath - both a deeply intimate accoun ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Hillary Rodham Clinton.
