  Gorgias - Plato

  Gorgias is a philosophical dialogue written by Plato, set in Athens in the early 5th century BC. The dialogue is named after the renowned Greek sophist Gorgias of Leontini, who is the main interlocutor in the conversation. 
  The dialogue begins with a discussion about the nature of rhetoric and its relationship to truth. Socrates, the main protagonist of the dialogue, argues that rhetoric is merely a skill of persuasion, and that its practitioners do not necessarily possess knowledge of the subject matter they are discussing. Gorgias and his student Polus disagree, and argue that rhetoric can be used to achieve both knowledge and persuasion. 
  The discussion then turns to the question of whether or not it is better to suffer injustice or to commit injustice. Socrates argues that it is better to suffer injustice than to commit it, and that it is always better to do what is right rather than what is expedient. Gorgias and Polus, however, disagree and argue that it is better to be the one who is in power and able to do as they please. 
  The dialogue concludes with a discussion about the nature of happiness and whether or not it can be achieved through the pursuit of power and wealth. Socrates argues that true happiness comes from living a life of virtue and wisdom, rather than from external circumstances such as wealth and power. 
  Overall, Gorgias is a profound exploration of some of the most fundamental questions of philosophy, including the nature of truth, justice, and happiness. It remains one of Plato's most famous and influential works, and is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of philosophy.

  Voices From The Ashes - The...

  Buried in the soil of Auschwitz lay fragments of voices the Nazis tried to silence forever. They belonged to the Sonderkommando, Jewish prisoners forced into the darkest role of all: to witness and endure the machinery of mass murder. Knowing they would not survive, some risked everything to leave behind their words, their truths, and their warnings for the future. 
  Voices From The Ashes unveils these extraordinary clandestine writings, preserved against time and oblivion. With raw honesty and unbearable clarity, they recount not only the brutality of the camp but also the unbroken will to testify, an act of defiance stronger than death itself. 
  Both harrowing and profoundly human, this book does more than preserve history—it restores the dignity of the silenced, carrying their words across generations. It is a testament to resilience, memory, and the unyielding demand that the world must never forget. 
  Perfect for readers of Holocaust history, survivor testimony, and those drawn to the enduring power of the human spirit, Voices From The Ashes stands as both a memorial and a warning, an urgent reminder carved out of silence and buried in ashes.
