Title: Two Treatises of Civil Government

Author: John Locke

Narrator: LibriVox Volunteers

Length: 11 hrs 5 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2016

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Politics, Essays & Anthologies, Public Policy

Publisher's Summary:

The Two Treatises of Civil Government is a work of political philosophy published anonymously in 1689 by John Locke. The First Treatise is an extended attack on Sir Robert Filmer's Patriarcha, which argued for a divinely-ordained, hereditary, absolute monarchy. The more influential Second Treatise outlines a theory of civil society based on natural rights and contract theory. Locke begins by describing the "state of nature," and goes on to explain the hypothetical rise of property and civilization, asserting that the only legitimate governments are those which have the consent of the people.

Locke's ideas heavily influenced both the American and French Revolutions. His notions of people's rights and the role of civil government provided strong support for the intellectual movements of both revolutions. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia)

Narrator: LibriVox Volunteers

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2016

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Poetry, Foreign Language Titles, Other

Publisher's Summary:

The poem Liian Paha Sappi by Aaro Hellaakoski, which tells the tale of a child struggling to keep his temper:

A TEMPER TOO BAD

How it burns my sisu

when I have to be quiet

If my will would be fulfilled

the undertaker would get grain.

A little boy has gotten

a temper too bad

This sisu cannot be put out

by even the most snowy Lapland.

This project is unusual in that most of the readers are non-Finnish speakers, and learned the poem phonically.
