    Lifting the Veil (eBook, ePUB)
    'Gloriously provocative... female sexuality within a patriarchal world is Chughtai's central concern' Kamila Shamsie, from the introduction Lifting the Veil is a bold and irreverent collection of writing from India's most controversial feminist writer. These stories celebrate life in all its complexities: from a woman who refuses marriage to a man she loves to preserve her freedom, to a Hindu and a Muslim teenager pulled apart by societal pressures, to eye-opening personal accounts of the charges of obscenity the author faced in court for stories found in this book. Wickedly funny and unflinchingly honest, Lifting the Veil explores the power of female sexuality while slyly mocking the subtle tyrannies of middle-class life. In 1940s India, an unlikely setting for female rebellion, Ismat Chughtai was a rare and radical storyteller born years ahead of her time.'Ismat Chughtai is known for her iconoclastic, feminist writings which explored the inner workings of women's lives' Huffington Post

Joshua Buckalew has left behind the deserted battlefields that claimed his brother Thomas. The war has cost him much, but it has also given him a strong bond to the land and to the Mexican families who stood with him against the tyrannies of Santa Anna. Josh is travelling with Ramon Hernandez his best friend and the man who had fought with him, side by side. Where they are going, he isn't quite sure. His home is ashes - burned by either the retreating Texans or the advancing Mexican army - and the land is full of bandits and opportunists who would happily shoot Ramon simply because he is Mexican.

    French Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen and "La Marseillaise, Hörbuch, Digital, 11min
    Discover the fundamentals of the French republic with two essentials. The French declaration of the rights of Man and of the Citizen has been of tremendous influence on every democracy ever since; La Marseillaise, which has been called "the greatest national anthem in the world", is a powerful and inspiring cry for battle and freedom. The Declaration of the rights of Man and of the Citizen introduce the idea that human rights are a feature of human nature itself; it is the first time the rights of man were said to be universal, without distinction of race or religion. This was the idea used to create a nation of free individuals equally protected by law, and it is still the basis of many democracies today. La Marseillaise is a revolutionary song meant to mobilize all citizens in courage and solidarity. It was first used as a rally against European monarchs, who tried to smother the French Revolution by invading the country; they were successfully defeated. The Marseillaise's revolutionary accents are still used to defend freedom against the successive tyrannies of modern age. Language: English. Narrator: Katie Haigh.

    The History of Rome, Volume 5: Books 33 - 39 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1050min
    Livy's purpose in writing his famous history was to show how Rome had started out as a city state full of brave, idealistic and virtuous citizens, but had then descended into the voracious, debauched, and immoral empire it had become by his own time in the late 1st century B.C. And the evidence was compelling. In volume five, Rome begins to confront the corrupt tyrannies and monarchies of Greece and the eastern Mediterranean. At first, her intention is simply to free the Greek cities from the yoke of bondage put in place by Philip of Macedon, Antiochus, and others. The task was all the more rewarding in that Philip and Antiochus had aided and abetted the Carthaginians earlier. But the thrill of liberation turns into the burden of empire as Rome assumes a role it cannot easily back away from. Soon, the protector of Greece becomes its jailor. And the corruption in the east moves west. Livy's The History of Rome continues in one additional volume. Translation: Roberts ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlton Griffin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acon/000138/bk_acon_000138_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Summary, Analysis, and Review of Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
    Please Note: This is a key takeaways and analysis of the book and not the original book. Start Publishing Notes' Summary, Analysis, and Review of Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny includes a summary of the book, review, analysis & key takeaways, and detailed "About the Author" section. Preview: Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny is a primer on what people can do to resist tyranny. It also provides tools for recognizing tyranny and discusses historical background on how tyrannical governments have been established in the past. Snyder mostly uses examples from twentieth century Europe, particularly from communist and fascist regimes, to illustrate his arguments. The United States was founded as a response to and a rejection of tyranny. American history and European history provide resources to recognize tyranny and combat it. History also shows that democratic traditions do not necessarily protect a nation from tyranny. Democratic movements after World War I, World War II, and following the collapse of communism were often unsuccessful. The fact that tyrannies often triumph should warn democratic citizens against complaisance. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Gilboe.
