Title: Meno

Author: Plato

Narrator: Chiquito Crasto

Length: 2 hrs 25 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/4/2017

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: History, Ancient Civilizations, Science & Technology

Publisher's Summary:

Meno (Ancient Greek: ) is a Socratic dialogue written by Plato. Written in the Socratic dialectic style, it attempts to determine the definition of virtue, or arete, meaning in this case virtue in general, rather than particular virtues, such as justice or temperance. The goal is a common definition that applies equally to all particular virtues. Socrates moves the discussion past the philosophical confusion, or aporia, created by Meno's paradox (aka the learner's paradox) with the introduction of new Platonic ideas: the theory of knowledge as recollection, anamnesis, and in the final lines a movement towards Platonic idealism..

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2017

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Foreign Language Titles, Spanish

Publisher's Summary:

La Odisea (en griego: ????????, Odsseia) es un poema épico griego compuesto por 24 cantos, atribuido al poeta griego Homero. Se cree que fue compuesta en el siglo VIII a. C., en los asentamientos que Grecia tenía en la costa oeste del Asia Menor (actual Turquía asiática). Según otros autores, la Odisea se completa en el siglo VII a. C. a partir de poemas que sólo describían partes de la obra actual.

Fue originalmente escrita en lo que se ha llamado dialecto homérico. Narra la vuelta a casa del héroe griego Odiseo (Ulises en latín) tras la Guerra de Troya. Además de haber estado diez años fuera luchando, Odiseo tarda otros diez años en regresar a la isla de Ítaca, donde poseía el título de rey, período durante el cual su hijo Telémaco y su esposa Penélope han de tolerar en su palacio a los pretendientes que buscan desposarla (pues ya creían muerto a Odiseo), al mismo tiempo que consumen los bienes de la familia.

Title: Sex: Avoided Subjects Discussed in Plain English (Version 2)

Author: Henry Stanton

Narrator: Phil Chenevert

Length: 1 hr 45 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2017

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Health & Wellness, Intimacy & Sex

Publisher's Summary:

Henry Stanton was appalled at the shocking lack of information given to young people about sex and reproduction in his time. He felt this was a crime that needed to be fixed and so he wrote this book explaining sex for young and old. Ignorance of basic reproductive processes he felt led to experimentation that then led to sin, crime and prostitution. While this book is definitely not written in what I would call Plain English, contains some very questionable 'facts' about masturbation and menstruation and might seem very moralistic and dogmatic to our current society, he does hold out high ideas for all in affairs of self respect, love and marriage. If nothing else, this is a delightful peek into the thoughts of almost all people our very recent country's past(Summary by the reader, Phil Chenevert )

Title: Treaty with China

Author: Mark Twain

Narrator: John Greenman

Length: 46 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2017

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: History, Asia

Publisher's Summary:

"A good candidate for 'the most under-appreciated work by Mark Twain' would be 'The Treaty With China,' which he published in the New York Tribune in 1868. This piece, which is an early statement of Twain's opposition to imperialism and which conveys his vision of how the U.S. ought to behave on the global stage, has not been reprinted since its original publication until now." (the online, open-access "Journal of Transnational American Studies" published it in the spring, 2010).

Title: How to Sing (Meine Gesangskunst)

Author: Lilli Lehmann

Narrator: Ruth Golding

Length: 5 hrs 24 mins

Language: English

Release date: 1/1/2017

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Health & Wellness, Instructional & How To

Publisher's Summary:

Lilli Lehmann, born Elisabeth Maria Lehmann, was a German operatic soprano of phenomenal versatility. She was also a voice teacher.

She wrote: "Every serious artist has a sincere desire to help others reach the goalthe goal toward which all singers are striving: to sing well and beautifully." This is the 1915 second (expanded) edition of her book, and the accompanying online book scan includes many illustrations and diagrams, both physiological and musical, which the listener will find useful.

Much of Lilli Lehmann's advice is complex and demanding - the standards which she set for herself were beyond the highest aspirations of most professional singers. However, there is still much in this book that is enlightening to all those who are interested in using their voice to best advantage, both in song and the spoken word.
