Beschreibung

Tragedy Genre Evolution explores the captivating history of tragedy, tracing its evolution from ancient Greece to modern stages. The book examines how this dramatic form has consistently grappled with fundamental questions of fate, free will, and the human condition. One intriguing insight is the enduring power of tragic themes across different eras, revealing how societies use drama to confront life's most challenging aspects.

 
The book approaches its subject chronologically, beginning with the ritualistic roots of ancient Greek tragedy and its formal structure. It then explores the transformation of tragedy during the Renaissance, focusing on Shakespeare's reinterpretations, and examines the rise of domestic tragedy with middle-class protagonists. Finally, the text analyzes the fragmentation of tragic form in the 20th and 21st centuries, considering the influence of modernism and social movements.

 
This evolution reveals that while superficial features change, the core function of tragedy remains: to explore the limits of human agency when facing overwhelming forces. This study draws upon textual analysis, theatre history, and literary criticism, offering a unique perspective on tragedy's evolution. It highlights the continuity of tragic themes, emphasizing the genre's enduring relevance and value to students, scholars, and general readers interested in dramatic literature and cultural history.

    "Everyone must read this book." – Lucia Osborne-Crowley 
    "Extraordinary and utterly compelling." – Adam Phillips  
    "An almost impossible balancing act." – Merve Emre 
    “Part philosophical treatise, part memoir, part history, Rees’s genre-bending meditation on hypochondria references everyone from Freud to Kafka to Seinfeld in a provocative search to find out why, exactly, we believe we’re sick.” – The New York Times 
    A free-wheeling philosophical essay, Hypochondria combines incisive contemporary cultural critique, colourful literary history, and the author’s own experience of chronic health anxiety to ask what we might learn from the hypochondriac’s discomforting experience of their body. Hypochondria is expansive in its range of references, from the writings of Franz Kafka to original yet accessible readings of theorists like Lauren Berlant. Whether he is discussing Seinfeld, John Donne, or his own past, Rees reveals himself to be a wry and perceptive critic, exploring the causes – and the costs – of our desire for certainty. 
    With wit and erudition, Hypochondria demonstrates both the rewards and the perils of reading (too) closely the common but typically overlooked aspects of our everyday lives.

    Here we are! You have managed to get a job interview by dint of sending CVs like an automatic machine gun! 
    The time has come! After so much wandering, a company has decided to see you first-hand! 
    All the hours spent filing your resume beyond belief, every evening spent behind the PC sifting through job offers, have finally served a purpose! 
    But now? 
    What to do? 
    At school, at university, no one taught you how to approach a job interview. 
    Panic: what answer and how to answer to the questions, talk little or a lot, dress elegant or sober, remain motionless or move with the body, shake hands or not, browse the company's website or get to the interview in a naive way, in order to be yourself? 
    If we would like to give an answer to all the mental blowjobs that will turn in your head, we just have to say that the truth is simple, damn simple. 
    But, as usual, when something is too simple, we don't consider it a viable option! 
    I'll tell you the secret right away! 
    To successfully pass a job interview, you need study, method and experience: 
    - study, because we need to examine our potential employer thoroughly, understand what he is looking for and what he expects from us 
    - method, because without a plan you can't go anywhere. Don't improvise. Train like a boxer. You are on the ring, and that employment contract must be yours! 
    - experience, because the first few times you will miss it. You will be discarded. Not because you're not good for that job, but because you still won't have the experience of a commander who has won 100 battles. It is normal, do not be discouraged. The sooner you understand where you went wrong in the first few battles, the sooner you will start winning! 
    Are you there so far? 
    Well, you are ready to listen to the audiobook!

    “I feel, when we have no friends upon whom to lean, or to look for moral guidance." (Mussolini) 
     
    The Doctrine of Fascism" is an essay attributed to Benito Mussolini. In truth, the first part of the essay, entitled "Idee Fondamentali", was written by the Italian philosopher Giovanni Gentile, while only the second part is the work of Mussolini himself. 
     
    Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini, born on July 29, 1883, who went by the nickname “Il Duce” (“the Leader”), was a deeply unbalanced tyrannical Italian dictator who created the dreaded Fascist Party in 1919. Eventually, he held all power in Italy as the country’s prime minister from 1922 to 1943. An ardent socialist as a youth, Mussolini followed in his father's political footsteps but was expelled by the party for his overt support of World War I. As an evil dictator during World War II (even murdering his own son by lethal injection) he greatly overextended his forces and was eventually killed by his own people in Mezzegra, Italy. Here, for the first time, are the words of the great dictator himself in his twisted manifesto on the political movement he started and is still so feared to this very day. A rare audiobook adventure in politics, history, and outrage!
