Sinossi

In "The Inner Beauty," Maurice Maeterlinck crafts a profound exploration of the human condition through a lens that intertwines mysticism and philosophy. The work delves into the themes of perception, inner life, and the quest for deeper meaning beyond external appearances. Employing a rich, impressionistic style, Maeterlinck invites readers to embark on a reflective journey, using elegant prose that resonates with the Symbolist movement—a literary context deeply influenced by the intricate interplay between emotion and thought, often revealing the unseen beauty within the mundane aspects of life. Maurice Maeterlinck, a Belgian playwright and essayist, was at the forefront of the Symbolist movement, drawing from personal experiences and a fascination with nature and spirituality. His background in philosophy and deep engagement with questions of existence profoundly shaped his writings. This book offers a culmination of his lifelong quest to unveil the unseen layers of reality, urging readers to confront their own inner landscapes and discover beauty where it often goes unnoticed. I highly recommend "The Inner Beauty" to readers seeking to enrich their understanding of beauty as a multifaceted concept, transcending the superficial. Maeterlinck's lyrical prose and profound insights provide an essential guide for those willing to venture into the depths of their own inner worlds.

Another Sojourner Looking for...

Millicent E. Brown

Memories and insights of a lifetime fighting for Black freedom and social justice 
 
 
 
Millicent E. Brown's family home at 270 Ashley Avenue in Charleston, South Carolina, was a center of civil rights activity. There Brown gained intimate knowledge of the struggle for racial justice, and those experiences set her on a life course dedicated to the civil rights struggle. Best known as the named plaintiff in the federal court case that, in 1963, forced the initial desegregation of public schools in South Carolina, her experiences as an activist range across years and well beyond her native state. Another Sojourner Looking for Truth is Brown's insightful reflection on her search for freedom in a nation deeply mired in white supremacist beliefs and overt violence against people of color. 
 
 
 
In this revealing memoir, Brown writes about her fears and doubts, as well as the challenges of being a teenager expected to "represent the race" and combat negative stereotypes of African Americans. Listeners also gain perspective on the interpersonal aspects of white backlash to civil rights progress and strategic machinations within the movement. Overall, Brown's words will inform, inspire, and challenge everyone to better understand the Black Freedom Struggle and confront its ongoing challenges.

The Turn

Dennis Joiner

This book looks at American life during a pivotal time (1950-2024) in American history: the Turn. It covers the postwar booms, social movements, the Reagan revolution, the Gulf wars, the war on terror as well as counterculture, protest movements, and the election of two unique presidents. The Turn looks at 75 years from the perspective of social change and modes of thought and the concomitant tension, conflict, and controversy that disaffected Americans who, despite their best efforts to live normal lives, could not escape from a miasma of discontent. The wars, the violence associated with protests, financial crises and a global pandemic, all came at great human cost to many Americans families. This book looks at effects of these occurrences on American society: examining such topics as illiberal religions, the corrupt media, the trappings of greed in politics, globalism, the woke culture; the role of film, television, and music; and more.

The Golden Sayings of Epictetus

Epictetus

'Asked, "Who is the rich man?" Epictetus replied, "He who is content."'

A stunning compilation of meditations, conversations and aphorisms from the renowned Stoic philosopher, Epictetus.

Initially born into slavery, Epictetus knew first-hand the true meaning of suffering. He argued that it is impossible to control external events, and therefore we should work to accept what the future holds calmly and dispassionately. Some say his work is comparable to Socratic literature, particularly in his approach to self-examination and self-discipline: ultimately, he believed individuals were responsible for their own actions, which can be controlled though hard work and willpower. The Golden Sayings of Epictetus offer a selection of his most pertinent teachings which remain relevant to this very day. With countless lessons on life, love, faith, death and more – as profound as they are wise – this classic text can be returned to again and again. This audio edition is brought to life by the talented Malk Williams.
Epictetus (50 – 135 AD) was a Greek philosopher and one of the main proponents of Stoicism. Born in Phrygia (now western Turkey), he moved to Rome once he regained his freedom, before being banished to Greece where he founded a school of philosophy. His teachings have influenced some of the greatest minds in history, including Marcus Aurelius, Pascal and Diderot amongst others.
