Sinopsis

In "Main Currents in Nineteenth Century Literature - 4. Naturalism in England," Georg Brandes delves into the intricacies of Naturalism as a literary movement that defined an epoch in English literature. Employing a critical yet accessible style, Brandes navigates through the era's socio-political landscape, illuminating how writers such as Thomas Hardy and George Gissing mirrored the deterministic perspectives of their time. This exploration not only outlines the philosophical underpinnings of Naturalism but also critiques its stylistic traits, emphasizing an objective narrative voice that distills the essence of reality through the lens of scientific thought. Georg Brandes, a pioneering Danish critic and public intellectual, played a significant role in shaping modern literary criticism. Influenced by the tumultuous cultural shifts of the late 19th century and the rise of Realism across Europe, Brandes sought to champion authors whose works reflected a deeper understanding of human psychology and social conditions. His extensive readings and personal interactions with key literary figures contributed to his profound insights into Naturalism and its impact on English literature. This book is essential for scholars and enthusiasts eager to grasp the complexities of Naturalism in a pivotal period of literary development. By engaging with Brandes's thorough analysis, readers will not only appreciate the works of major writers but also attain a nuanced understanding of the cultural currents that shaped their narratives.

    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!

    "Transactional Analysis in Psychotherapy" by Eric Berne is a seminal text that delves into the intricacies of human interaction and communication through the lens of transactional analysis (TA). Published in 1961, this book presents TA not just as a theory but as a practical method of therapy, offering insights into the dynamics of human behavior. Berne introduces concepts such as ego states, which categorize communication and behavior into parent-like, child-like, or adult-like forms, and "strokes," which are units of interpersonal recognition. He explores the structuring of time and the concept of life scripts—unconscious life plans adopted under parental influence. Berne's work is foundational in the field of psychotherapy, providing tools for understanding the complexities of human relationships and the mechanisms of communication, making it an essential read for professionals in psychology and psychotherapy, as well as anyone interested in the deeper understanding of social interactions.

    "Lisa Flanagan narrates journalist Margaret Sullivan's memoir/manifesto authoritatively....and gives this important audiobook the seriousness it merits." - AudioFile MagazinePrologue read by the authorOver her four decades of working in newsrooms big and small, Margaret Sullivan has become a trusted champion and critic of the American news media. In this bracing memoir, Sullivan traces her life in journalism and how trust in the mainstream press has steadily eroded.Sullivan began her career at the Buffalo News, where she rose from summer intern to editor in chief. In Newsroom Confidential she chronicles her years in the trenches battling sexism and throwing elbows in a highly competitive newsroom. In 2012, Sullivan was appointed the public editor of The New York Times, the first woman to hold that important role. She was in the unique position of acting on behalf of readers to weigh the actions and reporting of the paper's staff, parsing potential lapses in judgment, unethical practices, and thorny journalistic issues. Sullivan recounts how she navigated the paper’s controversies, from Hillary Clinton's emails to Elon Musk's accusations of unfairness to the need for greater diversity in the newsroom. In 2016, having served the longest tenure of any public editor, Sullivan left for the Washington Post, where she had a front-row seat to the rise of Donald Trump in American media and politics.With her celebrated mixture of charm, sharp-eyed observation, and nuanced criticism, Sullivan takes us behind the scenes of the nation's most influential news outlets to explore how Americans lost trust in the news and what it will take to regain it.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.
