George Orwell
À propos de cet audio
A graphic and biting polemic that still holds a fierce political relevance and impact despite being written over half a century ago. First published in 1937 it charts George Orwell's observations of working-class life during the 1930s in the industrial heartlands of Yorkshire and Lancashire. His depictions of social injustice and rising unemployment, the dangerous working conditions in the mines amid general squalor and hunger also bring together many of the ideas explored in his later works and novels.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 113
Continuing where Thus Spoke Zarathustra left off, Nietzsche's controversial work Beyond Good and Evil is one of the most influential philosophical texts of the 19th century and one of the most controversial works of ideology ever written. Attacking the notion of morality as nothing more than institutionalised weakness, Nietzsche criticises past philosophers for their unquestioning acceptance of moral precepts. Nietzsche tried to formulate what he called "the philosophy of the future".

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 496
From the author of 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos comes a provocative hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths, and religious stories have long narrated. A cutting-edge work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, Maps of Meaning presents a rich theory that makes the wisdom and meaning of myth accessible to the critical modern mind.

Ordinary Men is the true story of Reserve Police Battalion 101 of the German Order Police, which was responsible for mass shootings as well as round-ups of Jewish people for deportation to Nazi death camps in Poland in 1942. Browning argues that most of the men of RPB 101 were not fanatical Nazis but, rather, ordinary middle-aged, working-class men who committed these atrocities out of a mixture of motives, including the group dynamics of conformity, deference to authority, role adaptation, and the altering of moral norms to justify their actions.

Paradise Lost, along with its companion piece, Paradise Regained, remain the most successful attempts at Greco-Roman style epic poetry in the English language. Remarkably enough, they were written near the end of John Milton's amazing life, a bold testimonial to his mental powers in old age. And, since he had gone completely blind in 1652, 15 years prior to Paradise Lost, he dictated it and all his other works to his daughter.

Must read
Read this on recommendation by Jordan Peterson. It outlines the life of the working and lower classes from the perspective of an open minded Borgois man living among them. It also describes the transitional issues that arrive when trying to convert an entire civilization to socialism as is happening still today. Fascism is a real danger, ever lurking in the shadow of socialism. Great read, decent narrator.

So relevant., Required learning
This book was not what I expected, it was way better. I think the themes of class and power are as relevant as ever. People trying to survive with what they have. The struggle of trying to move up, to better themselves is everyones story. However we are moving backwards when people want to live homeless. How much should they be helped and why do we judge them? A great discussion is necessary.

Educational
Incredibly interesting to learn in great detail about the hardships of working class folks in early 20th century Northern England in the early chapters. The later chapters were more political and philosophical, and less engaging for me. Definitely still worth a read.

A Window in Time that Reveals both the Past and the Future
A revealing look at how society has change so little since the time of Orwell. The same issue that were apparent in the past remain in society today as political ponerology is used to control humanity and accounts for most of its suffering. The argument Orwell sets forth are still valid today though the context has changed.

History repeats it self
Amazing how George Orwell basically predicted the cultural landscape we face today. For someone who was pro socialism he really paints a dark picture for the future.
