The Lectures, Hörbuch, Digital, 112min
The great thing about writing The Mark Steel Lectures is discovering how the great characters from history, who can be made so dull by teachers, are fantastically passionate and human. For example, what a joy to find out Aristotle was the first person ever to compile a comprehensive list of the winners of the Olympic Games. I love the idea of him in a bar with Plato going, 'Go on then, give me any year you like, and I'll tell you who won the pole vault.'"Or that Tom Paine wrote a book pointing out all the places where the Bible contradicts itself and was accused of "preaching atheism". How do you "preach atheism"? Do you knock on the doors of religious people on Sunday mornings, and when they answer say, 'Have you heard the bad news?'"The subjects of this audio programme - Lord Byron, Aristotle, Billie Holiday and Che Guevara - are classic examples of the flawed, brilliant, courageous, slightly barking, but beautifully human characters from history that can inspire the rest of us, which you certainly won't get from looking at our current leaders. It's unlikely, for example, that anyone has ever said, 'The man who really inspires me is Jack Straw.'"Mark Steel Language: English. Narrator: Mark Steel.

Selected Poems 1988-2013 (eBook, ePUB)
A new edition of the later selected work of a Nobel Prize-winning poetOften considered to be "the greatest poet of our age" (The Guardian), Seamus Heaney was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995 "for works of lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the living past." He saw poetry as a vocation and credited it with "the power to persuade the vulnerable part of our consciousness of its rightness in spite of the evidence of wrongness all around it, the power to remind us that we are hunters and gatherers of values." Paul Muldoon wrote that Heaney was "the only poet I can think of who was recognized worldwide as having moral as well as literary authority." Shortly before his death in 2013, Seamus Heaney began to compile Selected Poems 1988-2013, and although he was unable to complete the project, his choices have been followed here. This volume encapsulates the finest work from Seeing Things (1991) with its lines of loss and revelation; The Spirit Level (1996) where we experience "the poem as ploughshare that turns time / Up and over."; the landmark translation of Beowulf (1999); Electric Light (2001), a book of origins and oracles; and his final collections, District and Circle (2006) and Human Chain (2010), which limn the interconnectedness of being, our lifelines to our inherited past.- Shop: buecher

Chasing Venus: The Race to Measure the Heavens , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 487min
The author of the highly acclaimed Founding Gardeners now gives us an enlightening chronicle of the first truly international scientific endeavor - the 18th century quest to observe the transit of Venus and measure the solar system. On June 6, 1761, the world paused to observe a momentous occasion: the first transit of Venus between the earth and the sun in more than a century. Through that observation, astronomers could calculate the size of the solar system - but only if they could compile data from many different points of the globe, all recorded during the short period of the transit. Overcoming incredible odds and political strife, astronomers from Britain, France, Russia, Germany, Sweden, and the American colonies set up observatories in remote corners of the world, only to have their efforts thwarted by unpredictable weather and warring armies. Fortunately, transits of Venus occur in pairs: eight years later, the scientists would have another opportunity to succeed. Chasing Venus brings to life the personalities of the 18th century astronomers who embarked upon this complex and essential scientific venture, painting a vivid portrait of the collaborations, the rivalries, and the volatile international politics that hindered them at every turn. In the end, what they accomplished would change our conception of the universe and would forever alter the nature of scientific research. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robin Sachs.

The Gap Yah Plannah, Hörbuch, Digital, 167min
Orlando, the original Sloane-dog and intrepid gapper, will finally release his diaries to inspire other travellers to follow in his chunder-filled footsteps. From sleepless nights in Buenos Aires to charitable endeavours in Tanzanah, Orlando will give the low-down on the ultimate gap experience…Just back from his travels, our intrepid Sloane-dog wants to pass on the knowledge he has literally gleaned about the world's best cash-lash ratio hotspots, cultural landmarks (bars), and the ways of societies other than our own (shooting a cow in Cambodia). Rootling around Tarquin's rucksack, Orlando finds a battered guidebook – sadly all but completely defaced with chunder from one of their many heroic Pisco Sour, Margarita or Mai Tai sessions. So to compile the ultimate dossier of advice for the generations that will follow in his Ugg-booted footsteps, Orlando has snipped out the salvageable bits and interspersed them with pages from his own diary and a few other bits and bobs he's found on the net or in the lining of his bag. From budgeting for your time away (mummy and daddy's credit card) and what not to bring (landmines – they've already got plenty over here, if anything, too many), to how to say 'vomcano' in Spanish, this is the absolutely essential spiritual, political and cultural guide to making the most of your gap yah.
