    Edouard Manet: 132 Master Drawings (eBook, ePUB)
    Essential figure in the transition from Realism to Impressionism, Edouard Manet was an influential painter who left his own unique mark on the art world. In 1856, in his early thirties, Manet opened his own studio. He began painting in a quasi-realist style, which transitioned to a more Impressionist style when he met the painter Berthe Morisot, who exposed him to her circle of Impressionist painter friends, including Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Many of Manet’s works revolved around depictions of leisure activities, including observations of social life in all of the classes, from bourgeois horse racing to prostitutes drinking, to the streets of Paris and boating scenes, many of which were made from sketches done on the spot. Although his work was Impressionistic, he resisted involvement with any specific style of painting, and thus preferred to present his works to the Salon of Paris rather than the many Impressionist Exhibitions.

    For decades, T. J. Bryan devoted herself to her profession, rising upward constantly. Suddenly, after reaching the pinnacle of her career, she was pushed from her lofty position. To save herself from despair, she, at age 64, impulsively decided to become a distance runner. Up to this point, her only athletic success revolved around aerobics classes when she was in her 40s and early 50s. When she became a runner, she competed in races of varying distances and developed a love of marathons although, as an African American woman, she encountered few women of her age and even fewer women of her race competing at this distance. In 10 years of running and racing, she discovered much about herself and joined a family that supported and encouraged her.

    Turning Back: The Turning Series, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 609min, (USK 18)
    I lived in the dark for three years. My whole world revolved around the whims and happiness of three men. It was just a trip into the forbidden. A way out of a bad situation and forward into nothingness. Quin, with his easy smile and charming good looks. He was always there for me...until he wasn't. Smith and his dispassionate attention. He was never there for me and he never regretted it. Bric, the one who listened, but only to himself. Self-absorbed, self-obsessed, and self-serving. He was never the one I wanted. And now he might be the only one I have left. It was good while it lasted, I guess. But it could've been so much more. It could've been so much better. And that's why I'm turning back. Includes a special bonus note read by the author. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Abby Craden, Tad Branson, Sebastian York.

    .22 Rifle for Christmas, Hörbuch, Digital, 29min
    This Dragnet episode originally aired on December 22, 1949. At the time, it caused a great deal of controversy, because it revolved around the death of a child killed while playing with a friend's Christmas present: a rifle. Despite the outcry, the episode was re-broadcast a number of times, always around Christmas. From 1949 to 1957, Dragnet pioneered new levels of realism on radio. Every crime investigated by Sergeant Joe Friday was taken from the actual case files of the Los Angeles Police Department, with only "the names changed to protect the innocent". There were multi-layered sound effects; the actors used accurate police lingo, abbreviations, and penal codes; and the show didn't shy away from stories about heinous crimes or stories that had unhappy endings. Created and produced by Jack Webb, Dragnet was much more than "just the facts". Language: English. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/rt/radi/000428/rt_radi_000428_sample.mp3.

    Causes of illiteracy in Côte d'Ivoire
    As we approach the end of the 2030 Agenda and the assessment of the MDGs, the achievement of MDG 4 is far from being effective (UIS 2019), and the problems of illiteracy remain preponderant at the moment. It is necessary to reinforce actions in favor of literacy. Our study "Causes of illiteracy in Côte d'Ivoire: the case of the communes of Abobo and Yopougon in the district of Abidjan" contributes to the actions and enriches the documentation on illiteracy in Côte d'Ivoire in order to improve efforts in favor of literacy and to promote the achievement of the MDG 4. Our research work revolved around the following question: Why do neo-literates become illiterate?To answer this question, we put forward the general hypothesis that neo-literates become illiterate due to a lack of use of their knowledge. The objectives of our study are: to determine the environmental factors that cause illiteracy among neo-literates, to identify the action of post-literacy on illiteracy among neo-literates, and to situate the action of neo-literates in the conservation of their knowledge.

An act of revenge that, however, will leave a bitter taste in the mouth of the protagonist. Emanuela La Capricciosa is the pseudonym behind which, in addition to Emanuela from Recanati, there are some authors belonging to the literary Token Ring, who have created this short novel as a collective work. A pleasant, flowing and intriguing reading, irreverent enough, but never vulgar.

    A Macat Analysis of Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 95min
    More than two centuries after its initial publication in 1781, Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason remains perhaps the most influential text in modern philosophy. Kant himself claimed his work as a revolutionary document and insisted that it changed the discipline of philosophy as thoroughly as Copernicus had changed astronomy 300 years earlier, when he said the Earth revolved around the sun and not the other way round. Kant argues that metaphysicians (philosophers who are primarily concerned with the fundamental causes and nature of things) could move away from their endless battles about whether human knowledge must conform to independently given objects. Instead he argues that progress in philosophy is possible only by agreeing that objects conform to forms of human cognition, or awareness. Much of the history of philosophy can be recounted in terms of how thinkers have reacted to Kant's work. His critique continues to provoke and inform a range of contemporary debates, both within and beyond philosophy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Macat.com.
