Title: Moby Dick

Author: Herman Melville

Narrator: William Hootkins

Format: Unabridged

Length: 24:49:52

Language: English

Release date: 09-01-05

Publisher: Naxos Audiobooks

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Classics

Summary:

'Call me Ishmael' Thus starts the greatest American novel. Melville said himself that he wanted to write 'a mighty book about a mighty theme' and so he did. It is a story of one man's obsessive revenge-journey against the white whale, Moby-Dick, who injured him in an earlier meeting. Woven into the story of the last journey of the Pequod is a mesh of philosophy, rumination, religion, history and a mass of information about whaling through the ages. This epic story, here presented in unabridged form, receives an equally epic reading from the outstanding American actor William Hootkins.

Release date: 07-25-05

Publisher: Uproar

Summary:

Funny, Funny, Funny. For decades now Dick Grande (the king of raunchy) and his exotic dancer wife Virginia Ham have been spreading the gospel of Raunchy Songs throughout the land. Now with the release of their Raunchiest Holiday Songs, tunes like All I Want For Xmas Is My Two Front Teats and My Inflatable Valentine will soon fill the homes of America with ole fashion raunch. The idea for Raunchiest Holiday Songs emerged when Virginia Ham noticed that many of her customers (lap dance buddies) were depressed and unable to stand up during the holidays.

After a couple of choruses of Xmas Always Makes Me Want To Die she noticed (after the laughter subsided) a firm friendly response emerged. Honey, can you write me some funny raunchy songs for my despondent clients? she asked. Within weeks the boys down at the Soak and Poke were laughing hysterically.

Bust a gut, bust a move or plain ole bust out with laughter and joy with Raunchiest Holiday Songs.

Summary:

Title: Lives of the Twelve Caesars

Author: Suetonius

Narrator: Derek Jacobi

Format: Abridged

Length: 07:15:00

Language: English

Release date: 05-01-05

Publisher: Naxos Audiobooks

Genres: Biography & Memoir, History & Culture

Summary:

Suetonius wrote his Lives of the Twelve Caesars in the reign of Vespasian around A. D. 70. He chronicled the extraordinary careers of Julius, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Vespasian and Domitian and the rest in technicolour terms. They presented some high and low times at the heart of the Roman Empire. The accounts provide us with perspicacious insights into the men as much as their reigns - and it was from Suetonius that subsequent writers such as Robert Graves drew so much of their material.

Title: Klassieke Oudheid: Een Hoorcollege over De Geschiedenis Van De Grieken En Romeinen

Author: Fik Meijer

Narrator: Fik Meijer

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:07:39

Language: English

Release date: 01-01-05

Publisher: Findaway Voices

Genres: Non-Fiction, Education

Summary:

Meesterverteller Fik Meijer behandelt in dit hoorcollege de geschiedenis van de Grieken en Romeinen aan de hand van enkele concrete probleemstellingen. Wat waren de oorzaken en gevolgen van de Griekse expansie? Waarom was juist de 'democratische' volksvergadering in het oude Athene zo imperialistisch. En hoe kan het dat de Romeinen zo machtig waren, terwijl hun oorlogsverklaringen altijd van een defensieve overweging uit ging? Meijer geeft in deze lezing meer dan een historische uiteenzetting van de Grieken en Romeinen. Hij weet een levendig beeld te schetsen van het leven in de klassieke oudheid.

Dit college is tot stand gekomen in samenwerking met CREA Studium Generale van de Universiteit van Amsterdam.
