Sinopse

The Collected Works of Jean-Jacques Rousseau is a comprehensive anthology encapsulating the revolutionary ideas of one of the Enlightenment's most influential thinkers. This volume features Rousseau's significant writings, including his treatises on natural human goodness, societal corruption, and the fundamental principles of political philosophy. Through a blend of autobiographical narrative, philosophical argumentation, and social critique, Rousseau employs a lyrical yet rigorous style that challenges conventional views of civilization. His reflections on education in "Emile, or On Education" and governance in "The Social Contract" illuminate the complex relationship between individuals and society, offering profound insights on freedom, equality, and the human condition. Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) was born in Geneva, Switzerland, and experienced a tumultuous life that deeply influenced his writings. His formative years were marked by personal and societal struggles, including unstable family life and a rejection of established norms. As a key figure in the development of Romanticism and modern political theory, Rousseau's works reflect his belief in the innate goodness of humanity and the corrupting influence of society, driven by a desire for authenticity and truth amidst the constraints of his time. Rousseau's collected works are essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, political science, or social theory. They invite readers to engage with questions of human nature and social justice, encouraging critical reflection on contemporary societal structures. This anthology not only showcases Rousseau's groundbreaking ideas but also serves as a crucial touchstone for understanding the trajectory of modern thought.

    Will I Hate Myself? - A Story...

    What if chasing your dream didn’t lead to fame or fortune—but to something far more honest? 
    At 36, Pat Treuer had the life people post about: six-figure job, corporate status, an apartment with a skyline view—and a quiet voice in his head screaming, “Is this it?” So he did what any rational person would do: he walked away from it all to tell jokes in bars for drink tickets and half-interested crowds. 
    Then came the pandemic. Pat launched a comedy business that brought in a million dollars—then reinvested every penny into a YouTube series that made exactly zero. Not a typo. Zero. 
    By 42, he found himself not chasing the next punchline, but rebuilding a life from scratch. On purpose, this time. 
    Will I Hate Myself is a hilariously raw, painfully honest memoir about risking everything, failing gloriously, and learning to create a life that actually fits. It’s part comedy crash reel, part spiritual sledgehammer. 
    If you’ve ever wondered whether you waited too long to change your life, felt stuck in a “successful” version of someone else’s dream, or asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”—this book is for you. 
    Through panic attacks, bad gigs, and moments of absurd grace, Pat offers more than laughs—he offers proof that it’s never too late to go off-script and start telling the truth. 
    This isn’t about making it. It’s about making it count.

    Parallel Lives - A Love Story...

    An extraordinary love story of two unlikely figures played out against the backdrop of the Cold War. 
      
    Best-selling novelist and art historian Iain Pears enchants readers with the real-life romance between Larissa Salmina, a Russian art curator, and Francis Haskell, a British art historian. His fabulous book brings into sharp focus the strange world of the Soviet Union, and the even stranger world of a certain variety of the English elite. It seeks to show how leaving the Soviet Union was a sacrifice for her and how it was the English man, not the Russian woman, who was set free because of their meeting. 
      
    Larissa was born in northern Russia, the daughter of a Soviet army officer from a noble family who survived the siege of Leningrad by eating cats’ tails and being evacuated over the ice. Francis was the grandson of an Iraqi Jew, forever feeling out of place in his adopted country of England. Parallel Lives is the story of how these two star-crossed lovers met, instantly understand each other, and were prepared to risk heartbreak, and in her case, retribution, to be together. 
      
    Escaping Leningrad, teenage Larissa lived in the Urals surrounded by Spanish revolutionaries, and after the war rose to become the youngest commissar in the Soviet Union and keeper of Italian drawings at the Hermitage. She took the Russian contribution to the Venice Biennale in 1962 and lost it on the journey. She briefly absconded with her supervisor’s corpse, developed a useful sideline in forgery, and stole (“I didn’t steal it. I liberated it”) a Matisse from the Italian government. Francis was a distinguished art historian, comfortably at home in King’s College Cambridge. But he was lonely, self-doubting, and had all but abandoned hope of falling in love. Larissa swept away all the years of anguish in one meal. 
      
    Iain Pears, who was neighbors with Larissa and Francis in Oxford, knew both his principal characters well. In telling Larissa and Francis’s love story, he is also capturing the Europe of a bygone era: a world of dancers, exiles, and the occasional spy, of artists, aristocrats, and academics. It is a tale of a world we have lost.
