Sinopsis

In "The Complete Works of Jane Austen (Unabridged)," readers are presented with an immersive collection of Austen's six major novels, alongside her poetry and juvenile writings. This comprehensive anthology showcases Austen's characteristic wit, irony, and keen insights into human relationships, social class, and the intricacies of romantic love. A master of free indirect discourse, Austen's literary style not only entertains but also invites readers to engage with the societal norms of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Through novels such as "Pride and Prejudice" and "Emma," she deftly exposes the constraints placed on women, crafting narratives that are both timeless and resonant in their exploration of personal agency and societal expectation. Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist known for her keen observations and portrayals of early 19th-century English society. Growing up in a progressive family with a rich literary environment, Austen's experiences informed her writing, as she often drew upon her intimate knowledge of rural life and domestic relationships. Her acute awareness of class and gender dynamics is evident throughout her works, solidifying her reputation as a pioneering voice in literature. This unabridged collection is essential for scholars and enthusiasts alike, serving as a gateway to understanding Austen's enduring relevance. Whether discovering her work for the first time or revisiting it, readers will find themselves captivated by her extraordinary ability to illuminate the human condition, making this collection a profound addition to any literary library.

    Marcus Tullius Cicero was a Roman statesman, lawyer, scholar, philosopher, and Academic skeptic who became a prominent figure in the political and intellectual life of the late Roman Republic. He is best remembered for his eloquence and his staunch defense of ethical ideals in the face of political turmoil, a period that ultimately led to the rise of the Roman Empire. Cicero’s influence extended far beyond his time as he became one of Rome's most revered orators and prose stylists, producing an extensive body of work encompassing treatises on rhetoric, philosophy, and politics. His works remain fundamental to the study of Latin and Western philosophy today. 
    Cicero was born into a wealthy municipal family within the Roman equestrian order and held the esteemed office of consul in 63 BC, a significant achievement in his career. His oratorical prowess was unrivaled, and his skill in public speaking earned him a reputation that endured through the centuries. His publications spanned a broad range of subjects, from the theoretical aspects of rhetoric to the practical concerns of governance and philosophy. Cicero’s mastery of the Latin language was profound—he is said to have written over three-quarters of all surviving Latin literature from his time. His works, characterized by their clarity and depth, formed the foundation for subsequent Latin prose, influencing European languages and thinkers well into the 19th century.

    The Spanish conquest of the Americas is a pivotal part of the history of colonization.  
    Christopher Columbus’s discovery, albeit accidental, of a new landmass turned the world upside-down. Beginning in the late 15th century, the kingdom of Spain spearheaded the effort of colonization, sending expedition after expedition to the Caribbean islands and then to mainland North and South America. Through violence, bloodshed, and conquest, the Spanish conquistadors were able to gain control of the rich and prosperous lands of indigenous American civilizations, laying waste to magnificent political and social entities like the Aztec and Inca Empires. 
    This audiobook tells the story of how Spain managed to conquer the Americas in the span of half a century, from the late 1400s to the mid-1500s. Although exploitation and warfare continued between the colonizers and the colonized after this period, the largest campaigns against the indigenous peoples were undertaken in this short time span, which is the focus of this audiobook. 
    This comprehensive guide will cover the following:Columbus and his expeditions, which encouraged other Europeans to start colonizationThe makeup of indigenous American societies, from their social hierarchies and complex cultures to diverse political structuresColonization of the Caribbean islands and the establishment of the Spanish West IndiesThe arrival of Hernán Cortés and his groundbreaking expedition into the Aztec Empire in modern-day MexicoThe conquest of the Maya civilization in the Yucatán Peninsula and the power dynamics between different power-hungry conquistador groups thereThe magnificent Inca Empire in the South American Andes and its conquest by Francisco Pizarro

    An "enlightening and fascinating" exploration of Scotland's royal women, from Lady Macbeth to Mary Queen of Scots and beyond (Booklist). 
     
     
     
    The lives of the Scottish queens, both those who ruled in their own right and the consorts, have largely been neglected in conventional history books. One of the earliest known Scottish queens was none other than the notorious Lady Macbeth. Was she really the wicked woman depicted in Shakespeare's famous play? Was St. Margaret a demure and obedient wife? Why did Margaret Logie exercise such an influence over her husband, David II, and have we underestimated James VI's consort, Anne of Denmark, frequently written off as a stupid and willful woman? Rosalind K. Marshall delves into these questions and more in this entertaining, impeccably researched book.
