This short account of a fire and suspicious deaths at Manor Place examines the tragic consequences of neglect, corruption, and systemic failure. Doyle treats the case not just as a crime but as a condemnation of housing conditions and slum mismanagement. A call to conscience as much as investigation.

In The Apologia, Roman writer and philosopher Apuleius delivers a brilliant legal defense speech before a Roman court, refuting charges of sorcery brought against him during his stay in Sabratha. With wit, rhetorical skill, and philosophical insight, Apuleius argues that his scholarly pursuits in philosophy, science, and religion are not criminal but reflect the intellectual traditions of the ancient world. The speech reveals much about Roman provincial life, legal procedure, and the suspicion surrounding learned men accused of occult practices. Part courtroom drama, part intellectual manifesto, The Apologia offers a vivid portrait of a thinker unapologetically defending reason, education, and personal freedom in an age wary of foreign ideas and mystical associations.Voir livre

Anarchism is often misunderstood as simply chaos or disorder, but it is, in fact, a political and philosophical ideology that seeks the abolition of unjust systems of power, particularly the state and hierarchical structures. At its core, anarchism advocates for a society based on voluntary cooperation, mutual aid, and the dismantling of coercive institutions. It emphasizes individual freedom, collective responsibility, and the rejection of authority in all its forms, whether governmental, economic, or social. The roots of anarchist thought can be traced back to the early 19th century, with thinkers like Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, who famously declared that "property is theft," and later, figures like Mikhail Bakunin and Peter Kropotkin. These early anarchists critiqued the existing state, capitalism, and organized religion, arguing that they were inherently oppressive and exploitative. Anarchism, for these thinkers, was not just about rejecting government, but also about challenging societal norms that perpetuate inequality and injustice. One of the most important aspects of anarchism is its emphasis on direct action and the creation of alternative systems of organization. Anarchists believe that meaningful change does not come from traditional political structures like elections or parliamentary processes, but through grassroots action and community-based solutions. This can involve protests, strikes, and other forms of resistance, but also the establishment of cooperative enterprises, mutual aid networks, and non-hierarchical communities.Voir livre
