LibriVox volunteers bring you 22 recordings of Faults by Sara Teasdale. This was the Weekly Poetry project for March 7th, 2010.

Faults by Sara Teasdale (1884 - 1933)

Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, 1st Duke of Bronté, KB (29 September 1758 – 21 October 1805) was an English flag officer famous for his service in the Royal Navy, particularly during the Napoleonic Wars. He won several victories, including the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, during which he was killed. These are the letters that he wrote to Lady Hamilton, with whom he was having a notorious affair until his death in 1805. (Summary by Wikipedia)

Letters of Lord Nelson to Lady Hamilton, Volume I, The by Horatio Nelson (1758 - 1805)

1843 verfasste Dickens den Roman A Christmas Carol (deutscher Titel: Eine Weihnachtsgeschichte) in der Absicht, die Aufmerksamkeit des Lesers auf die Not der Armen in der Gesellschaft Englands zu lenken. Am 19. Dezember 1843 wurde das Werk mit Illustrationen von John Leech veröffentlicht. Der herzlose Geschäftemacher Ebenezer Scrooge wandelt sich zu einem gütigen, die Not der Menschen lindernden alten Herren. Dickens bedient sich hierfür der Mittel der Groteske: Am Heiligen Abend erscheint dem alten Geizhals der Geist seines verstorbenen Geschäftspartners Marley, der zu Lebzeiten noch geiziger als Scrooge war, und prophezeit Scrooge ein düsteres Ende für den Fall, dass er sein Leben nicht grundlegend ändere. Danach zeigt sich der Geist der vergangenen Weihnacht, welcher Scrooge in seine Kindheit zurückversetzt, gefolgt vom Geist der gegenwärtigen Weihnacht, der ihn ins Haus seines ärmlich lebenden Schreibers Cratchit und dessen Familie sowie in das Haus seines Neffen geleitet. Der Geist der künftigen Weihnacht schließlich führt ihn zu seinem einsamen Sterbebett und zeigt ihm seinen Grabstein. „Die Wege der Menschen deuten ein bestimmtes Ende voraus, auf das sie hinführen, wenn man auf ihnen beharrt. Aber wenn man von den Wegen abweicht, ändert sich auch das Ende“, erkennt Scrooge, läutert sich und wird fortan zu einem anderen Menschen. (Zusammenfassung von Wikipedia)

Killgloom Park by Neil Boyton, S. J. (1884 - 1956)

Stendhal - a German pen-name for a French writer who hated the English. Contemporary to some of the great names of French literature like Balzac and Flaubert, Stendhal is quite often considered a writer that doesn't seem to fit a defined genre. Some say he's a Romantic, others that he's a Modernist and that Le Rouge et Le Noir is the first modern novel. On one point they are all agreed: the novel is a masterpiece that shows a young theology student - Julien Sorel - intelligent, handsome and who is determined to rise above his humble peasant origins. Stendhal presents the reader with a satirical plot that will involve you in passions, intrigues, last-minute reversals and, mostly, the hypocrisy by which society operates. (Summary by sailormoon)

Red and the Black, Volume I, The by Stendhal (1783 - 1842)

Dave Dawson on Guadalcanal by Robert Sidney Bowen (1900 - 1977)

La Divina Commedia, originalmente Commedìa, è un poema di Dante Alighieri, capolavoro del poeta fiorentino, considerata la più importante testimonianza letteraria della civiltà medievale e una delle più grandi opere della letteratura universale. È diviso in tre parti chiamate cantiche: Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso; il poeta immagina di compiervi un viaggio ultraterreno Il poema, pur continuando i modi caratteristici della letteratura e dello stile medievali (ispirazione religiosa, fine morale, linguaggio e stile basati sulla percezione visiva e immediata delle cose), tende a una rappresentazione ampia e drammatica della realtà, ben lontana dalla spiritualità tipica del Medioevo, tesa a cristallizzare la visione del reale.

This book is set in 1980 in the Republic of Britannula, which is a fictional island near New Zealand. It deals with euthanasia as a radical solution to the problem of the aged. The novel is in the form of a personal account written by the President of Britannula about the island's recent history. It has often been said that when the book came out Trollope had reached the age of 67. Interesting is the fact that this is the exact age at which all Britannulans are required by law to retire from their worldly affairs and begin a year of preparation for death. (Summary by Michele Eaton)

Almayer's Folly (version 2) by Joseph Conrad (1857 - 1924)

No matter how enlightened, chances are you've been raised around superstitious lore of one kind or another. Fanny Dickerson Bergen was one of the original researchers of North American oral traditions relating to such key life events and experiences as babyhood and childhood, marriage, wishes and dreams, luck, warts and cures, death omens and mortuary customs, and "such truck," as Huck Finn would say. You'll be surprised at how many of these old saws you'll know. Here's a quote from Chapter One, Babyhood: Monday’s child is fair of face, Tuesday’s child is full of grace, Wednesday’s child is sour and sad, Thursday’s child is merry and glad, Friday’s child is loving and giving, Saturday’s child must work for a living; But the child that is born on the Sabbath day Is blithe and bonny, good and gay. --Baldwinsville, N. Y. All of these readings are as short as 5 minutes and no longer than 15 minutes, with plenty of pithy one-liners in the form of proverbs, always given with the locale they came from in Canada or the United States (with clear influences in British tradition). (summary by Denny Sayers)

Current Superstitions by  Fanny Dickerson Bergen (1846 - 1924)

The Second Epistle to Timothy is one of the three Pastoral Epistles, written by Paul, and is part of the canonical New Testament. It may have been written sometime in 67 A.D. during Paul's second Roman imprisonment. In his letter, the writer urges Timothy to not have a "spirit of timidity" and to "not be ashamed to testify about our Lord" (1:7-8). The writer also entreats Timothy to come to him before winter, and to bring Mark with him (cf. Philippians 2:22). He was anticipating that "the time of his departure was at hand" (4:6), and he exhorts his "son Timothy" to all diligence and steadfastness in the face of false teachings, with advice about combatting them with reference to the teachings of the past, and to patience under persecution (1:6–15), and to a faithful discharge of all the duties of his office (4:1–5), with all the solemnity of one who was about to appear before the Judge of the quick and the dead.

Romance of Modern Chemistry, The by James C. Philip (1873 - 1941)

How do elephants drink? What is the Law of the Jungle at the water hole? How does an elephant baby learn to feed and learn to swim? How do they walk under water? In what order do buffaloes drink? How do buffaloes fight the tiger? These and other wild inhabitants of the Indian jungle such as pigs, wild dogs, deer, camels, bears and birds are discussed in lively stories to entertain but mainly educate children of school age. "One of the great thinkers of the world has said that all the sciences are embodied in natural history. Hence natural history should be taught to a child from an early age. Perhaps the best method of teaching it is to set forth the characteristics of animals in the form of a narrative. Then the child reads the narrative with pleasure and almost as a story, not as a tedious "lesson." In this book the animals are described in their daily life, and the main scientific facts and principles concerning each animal are woven into the narrative as a part of that daily life." (Summary by Phil Chenevert and from the Preface)

Wonders of the Jungle, The by  Sarath Kumar Ghosh (1883 - )

The Animal's iView with Lizanne Flynn is a hit radio show that illuminates the heart-centered bond of animal and human as souls destined to find each other in a lifetime. Lizanne will look into the mirror of life lessons for both animal and human, and will share the wise voices of our wild animal companions. It is an animal's unquestionable intuition that guides Lizanne, a world renowned animal communicator, in her work. Lizanne will bring to you the understanding that all animals are light beings incarnated in our lives to help raise the vibrational level of this planet. It is one thing to say that you are a pet owner and and an entirely different thing to say that you are the guardian of an animal companion. The former indicates an animal that is "kept" for enjoyment by an individual who "has control over" that animal. The latter speaks to the heart-centered bond of energy co-created by two sentient beings of different species because their souls were destined to find each other in a lifetime. Life lessons for both animal and human loom large in the animal's eye view and not surprisingly it is their intuition that guides an animal communicator in their work of deciphering behavioral messages and motivation by the animal to be the mirror for the human in these lessons. About Lizanne Lizanne Flynn is an intuitive empath, advisor and teacher who works equally well with both humans and animals. She is trained and certified as a Reiki Master and Teacher and a Canine Massage Therapist. Lizanne has built a reputation as an Animal Communicator specializing in connecting hearts and bridging dimensions for humans and animals whether living or in spirit. She communicates with animals and their guardians so that behavior and health issues can be brought out into the open for healing. The relationships we have with these sentient beings of a different species have all the ups and downs, ebbs and flows, and challenges of our same species relationships with other humans. Lizanne helps clients reconnect with their Divine Selves and remove blocks that may be interfering with their lives and impeding their life's journey. Her work includes exploring past lives, and connecting with Guides and Angels so the true purpose of a life event whether it's occurring via career, relationship or health can be gently and safely revealed for the lesson being presented by the soul. Lizanne's abilities as a medical intuitive clarify past, present and future health issues so clients - both human and animal - can reconnect with their bodies and form a relationship with their body based on health, harmony and love.

The latter speaks to the heart-centered bond of energy co-created by two sentient beings of different species because their souls were destined to find each other in a lifetime. Life lessons for both animal and human loom large in the animal's eye view and not surprisingly it is their intuition that guides an animal communicator in their work of deciphering behavioral messages and motivation by the animal to be the mirror for the human in these lessons. About Lizanne Lizanne Flynn is an intuitive empath, advisor and teacher who works equally well with both humans and animals. She is trained and certified as a Reiki Master and Teacher and a Canine Massage Therapist. Lizanne has built a reputation as an Animal Communicator specializing in connecting hearts and bridging dimensions for humans and animals whether living or in spirit. She communicates with animals and their guardians so that behavior and health issues can be brought out into the open for healing. The relationships we have with these sentient beings of a different species have all the ups and downs, ebbs and flows, and challenges of our same species relationships with other humans. Lizanne helps clients reconnect with their Divine Selves and remove blocks that may be interfering with their lives and impeding their life's journey. Her work includes exploring past lives, and connecting with Guides and Angels so the true purpose of a life event whether it's occurring via career, relationship or health can be gently and safely revealed for the lesson being presented by the soul. Lizanne's abilities as a medical intuitive clarify past, present and future health issues so clients - both human and animal - can reconnect with their bodies and form a relationship with their body based on health, harmony and love.

How To Watch TV: The Leftovers

Would you leave your job, sell your house, abandon your family and friends and move to France to live on a boat? With no income, and no idea what the next day would bring?

Probably not. But that's what Mike and Liz did, choosing to cast off from corporate life to live and travel the waterways of France.

They're boarded by armed police, nearly lose their boat, and pull a near-drowned body from the water. With a blade against his neck, Mike's fate rests on a soccer game, and he and Liz accuse a Frenchman of not knowing how to 'soil a bat'. 

This is their adventure, a book for anyone who's ever thought they might like to just get away from it all, throw caution to the wind and see what tomorrow feels like. It will take you to the limits, bring you down to earth, but most of all it will make you laugh out loud.

Join Mike and Liz, as they go sailing on a notion…
