Notes from the Underground , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 308min
By the time Dostoevsky was 40, he had spent four years in prison and a further four years in the army as punishment for his part in a political conspiracy. His health was broken. He was gaunt, fervid, anxiety-ridden, and close to bankruptcy. It was in this state he wrote Notes from the Underground, a masterpiece of the psychology of theoutsider. The book, published in 1864, marks a turning point in Dostoevsky's writing: it announces the moral, political, and social ideas that he will further examine in Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov. The book opens with a tormented soul crying out, "I am a sick man...I am a spiteful man." This is the cry of an alienated individual who has become one of the greatest anti-heroes in all literature. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Walter Zimmerman.

At the Tea Party: The Wing Nuts, Whack Jobs and Whitey-whiteness of the New Republican Right - And Why We Should Take it Seriously , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 687min
In the wake of the November 2011 elections, the Tea Party has gone from a well-funded, media-savvy fringe group to become the new kids in Congress. Their presence is unpredictable and potentially explosive. Tea partiers Rand Paul, Mike Lee and Dan Coats now sit in the Senate alongside the GOP's new poster boy, Marco Rubio. In total, some 30 Tea Party supporters won seats in Congress. Their party is evidently here to stay - but what exactly does that mean for the future of the country? At the Tea Party presents a lively and informed expose of this explosive new force in American politics. It doesn’t paint a pretty picture. You will come to understand the coalition of anti-abortion, pro-gun advocates who comprise the tea parties' shock troops. You will discover what MSNBC contributor Melissa Harris-Lacewell and Going Rouge editors Rich Kim and Betsy Reed have to say about the racism, homophobia, and sexism that fuels the Tea Party fizz. You will follow the money that flowed from the shadowy organizations of the super-rich to pay for the ads that won the races. You will learn about the unscrupulous gold-peddlers who were virtually the sole underwriters of Glenn Beck's Fox News show. And you will get the up-close-and-personal scoop on the movement's biggest stars - Sarah from Wasilla and the mercurial crying clown Glenn Beck. With contributions from a wide range of leading experts, At the Tea Party sorts the facts from the frenzy. Most importantly, it looks forward. Will the tea partiers in Congress launch a civil war within the Republican Party? Could they take over the GOP and end up running the country? And what role can the Left play in preventing the tea partiers from remaking America in their own fervid image? Combining investigative zeal; smart, hard facts; and a leavening of sharp wit and political passion, At the Tea Party stands out among books on the Tea Party phenomenon as an extraordinary listen for ungekürzt.

The Western Schism of 1378: The History and Legacy of the Papal Schism That Split the Catholic Church , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 84min
Doubt still shrouds the validity of the three rival lines of pontiffs during the four decades subsequent to the still-disputed papal election of 1378. This makes suspect the credentials of the cardinals created by the Roman, Avignon, and Pisan claimants to the Apostolic See. Unity was finally restored without a definitive solution to the question; for the Council of Constance succeeded in terminating the Western Schism, not by declaring which of the three claimants was the rightful one, but by eliminating all of them by forcing their abdication or deposition, and then setting up a novel arrangement for choosing a new pope acceptable to all sides. To this day the Church has never made any official, authoritative pronouncement about the papal lines of succession for this confusing period; nor has Martin V or any of his successors. Modern scholars are not agreed in their solutions, although they tend to favor the Roman line. (J.F. Broderick) Nowadays, the pope is synonymous with unparalleled piety, compassion, and benevolence. To many, the pope is the embodiment of godly love in its purest form. No matter the weather or the inconvenience, millions upon millions of fervid devotees brave the congested streets of their cities, all for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to welcome the beloved Vicar of Christ. The modern perception of the pope is a far cry from how things were just a few centuries ago. Back in the day, the most notorious of popes were nothing more than power-hungry dictators and cutthroat experts who manipulated European politics. There was a time when the holiest men of the world were constantly at each other's throats, willing to go to any lengths to secure the coveted papal title. Indeed, by the late 14th century, tensions within the Church reached a breaking point, resulting in the infamous split of the Catholic Church, one that saw multiple popes fighting to knock the others off their thrones.
