Published in 1854, itdetails Thoreau’s life for two years, two months, and two daysaround the shores of Walden Pond. Walden is neither a novel nor atrue autobiography, but a social critique of the Western World,with each chapter heralding some aspect of humanity that needed tobe either renounced or praised. Along with his critique of thecivilized world, Thoreau examines other issues afflicting man insociety, ranging from economy and reading to solitude and higherlaws. He also takes time to talk about the experience at WaldenPond itself, commenting on the animals and the way people treatedhim for living there, using those experiences to bring out hisphilosophical positions. This extended commentary on nature hasoften been interpreted as a strong statement to the naturalreligion that transcendentalists like Thoreau and Emerson werepreaching.Streaming Audio Book from Librivox.org.

This Volume (2) contains the 2 timelessclassics of Treasure Island by R.L. Stevenson and The Swiss FamilyRobinson by Johann David Wyss.A mysterious map, pirates, and pieces of eight! When young JimHawkins finds a map to pirates’ gold he starts on an adventure thattakes him from his English village to a desert island with themurderous Black Dog, half-mad Ben Gunn, and (of course) Long JohnSilver. Arr Jim lad! R.L. Stevenson (1850-1894) was born inScotland and travelled extensively in California and the southPacific.The Swiss Family Robinson has delighted generations of readerswith its exciting tale of a family which, though shipwrecked,displays “the right stuff” and builds a charming colony that later,they do not want to leave. Cut off from the comforts andcompanionship of other humans, they use a familiarity with naturalhistory and biology to find the resources and build the tools toconstruct a canoe, weave cloth, irrigate a garden, and turn animmense hollow tree into a lofty house with a spiral staircase.They domesticate buffaloes, wild asses, and monkeys. They establishfarms and plantations. And finally, they have a terrifyingencounter with natives from a nearby island.Johann David Wyss, the author, did not live to complete histale. Storytellers over the years have injected so many episodesinto the various versions that probably none closely match theoriginal. (Indeed, the Baroness de Montholieu expanded the bookfrom two volumes into five when she translated it into French.)This effort was re-translated into English in 1849 by W.H.G.Kingston, abridging the edition severely. It follows the Britishsensibilities of the period in terms of sentence structure andemphasis.Children's Classics is a set of streaming Audio Books fromLibrivox.org.

Studies In Pessimism 1.0
**THIS APP INCLUDES AUDIO AND THE FULL TEXT!****CLASSIC LITERATURE IN AN EASY TO NAVIGATE APP**By: Arthur Schopenhauer 1788-1860Arthur Schopenhauer, an early 19th century philosopher,madesignificant contributions to metaphysics, ethics, andaesthetics.His work also informed theories of evolution andpsychology,largely through his theory of the will to power – aconcept whichNietzsche famously adopted and developed. Despitethis, he istoday, as he was during his life, overshadowed by hiscontemporary,Hegel. Schopenhauer’s social/psychological views, putforth in thiswork and in others, are directly derived from hismetaphysics,which was strongly influenced by Eastern thought. Hispessimismforms an interesting and perhaps questionable contrastwith hisobvious joy in self-expression, both in the elegance of hisproseand in his practice of playing the flute nightly.His brilliance, poetry, and crushing pessimism can beseenimmediately in this work, as for example in this claim fromthefirst chapter: “The pleasure in this world, it has beensaid,outweighs the pain; or, at any rate, there is an evenbalancebetween the two. If the reader wishes to see shortly whetherthisstatement is true, let him compare the respective feelings oftwoanimals, one of which is engaged in eating the other.” We seealso,in this work, his misogyny, as for example in his claim that“aslions are provided with claws and teeth, and elephants andboarswith tusks, . . . so Nature has equipped woman, for herdefence andprotection, with the arts of dissimulation; and all thepower whichNature has conferred upon man in the shape of physicalstrength andreason, has been bestowed upon women in this form.”Given hisopening comment, the translator, T.B. Saunders, seems tohave beenat least somewhat sympathetic to this perspective.Streaming Audio Book from Librivox.org. All Librivox recordingsarein the Public Domain and are available free of charge.

Fanny Hill: Memoirs of A Woman of PleasureBy: John Cleland 1709-1789Fanny Hill: Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (1749) was thefirstwidely-read English novel in the genre “Erotica.” It waswritten byJohn Cleland as he was serving hard time at a debtor’sprison inLondon. Over the centuries, the novel has been repeatedlybanned byauthorities, assuring its preeminent role in the historyof theongoing struggle against censorship of free expression.Until Fanny Hill, previous heroines had conducted theiramorousliaisons “off-stage.” Any erotic misadventures weredescribedeuphemistically. As women who had gone astray, theyalwaysrepented, which made even their most outrageous dalliancessomehowsuitable for a moralistic readership. The protagonist ofFannyHill, however, never repented a single moment of hersexualexploits … quite the contrary!

Apart from this, he is also reveredandrespected in many South Asian countries as a learnedphilosopher.The book is divided into thirteen chapters and there ishistoricalevidence to prove that it was written over a period oftime andperhaps with many borrowings and collaborations with othersimilarworks of the period. However, it was also heavily criticizedbygenerations of scholars and thinkers in later centuries asitadvocated deception and spying as accepted strategies in war.Manyscholars have also doubted whether a figure such as Sun Tzuexistedat all and have found several inaccuracies in terms ofthetimeframe in which the book was supposed to have been written.Manyfeel that the original work may have undergone severalrevisionsover the centuries before being consolidated in itspresent form.Whatever the nature of these opinions The Art of Warremains afascinating, valuable and extremely interesting work.Each chapter explores a different aspect of war.

It was from this experience he wasinspired towrite a philosophical book from prison reflecting on howa lord’sfavor could change so quickly and why friends would turnagainsthim. It has been described as ‘by far the most interestingexampleof prison literature the world has ever seen.’The Consolation of Philosophy stands, by its note of fatalismandits affinities with the Christian doctrine of humility,midwaybetween the heathen philosophy of Seneca the Younger and thelaterChristian philosophy of consolation represented by ThomasAquinas.– The book is heavily influenced by Plato and his dialogues(as wasBoethius himself).Streaming Audio Book from Librivox.org.
