Sinopse

Can a man of humble birth outwit a world built to exclude him?

The Red and the Black by Stendhal is a revolutionary novel of social ambition, emotional conflict, and personal identity. Set in Restoration-era France, the book follows Julien Sorel, a young provincial tutor who rises through charm and intellect—but is doomed by pride, love, and the rigid structures of class and church.

This profound psychological novel is both a searing critique of French society and a compelling portrait of a complex antihero striving for greatness.

💬 "Equal parts romance, revolution, and psychological brilliance—Stendhal's masterpiece remains strikingly modern."

    Booker Taliaferro Washington (April 5, 1856 - November 14, 1915) was an American educator, author, orator, and adviser to several presidents of the United States. Between 1890 and 1915, Washington was the dominant leader in the African American community and of the contemporary black elite. Washington was from the last generation of black American leaders born into slavery and became the leading voice of the former slaves and their descendants. They were newly oppressed in the South by disenfranchisement and the Jim Crow discriminatory laws enacted in the post-Reconstruction Southern states in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
    THE CULTIVATION OF STABLE HABITS: I am going to speak with you a few minutes this evening upon the matter of stability. I want you to understand when you start out in school, that no individual can accomplish anything unless he means to stick to what he undertakes.
