Title: Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia: The History and Legacy of the Multiethnic Nations that Split Apart after the Cold War

Author: Charles River Editors

Narrator: C , Colin Fluxman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:38:57

Language: English

Release date: 05-14-19

Publisher: Findaway Voices

Genres: History, Europe, Russia

Summary:

On New Years Day 1993, Czechoslovakia broke into two separate countries, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Thus ended one of the creations brought about by the Treaty of Versailles after World War I, and as a country that had existed for just under 75 years, Czechoslovakia spent most of its time under the tyranny of fascism or communism.

Of course, the countrys origins go back far longer than the 1910s, and they were complex and convoluted. The very geography of central Europe meant this territory had been conquered and occupied many times over the course of history, and for much of the modern era, the area belonged to much larger empires, including the Holy Roman Empire, the Austrian Habsburg Empire, and finally the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Nevertheless, two distinct ethnicities had come to make up the bulk of the territorys inhabitants: the Czechs, predominantly in the areas of Bohemia and Moravia, and the Slovaks, in Slovakia. Both peoples had their own Slavic-based languages, but the languages were similar enough to be mutually intelligible.

Despite any ethnic similarities, the country that formed in 1918 among the ashes of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was by no means a nation-state as most people understand that term. In fact, much of the territory which bordered Germany was inhabited by ethnic German speakers, including one of Pragues most famous sons, the writer Franz Kafka. One of the 20th centurys most celebrated authors spoke German as his first language. As such, the lands that became Czechoslovakia had usually existed in some kind of supranational system where identity was allowed to be relatively fluid.

Czechoslovakias split was mostly peaceful, which stands in stark contrast to that of Yugoslavia, arguably one of the most unusual geopolitical creations of the 20th century. The Yugoslav state had never existed in any historical sense, and the ties that bound together its constituent peoples were tenuous at best. Although nominally all Slavs, the country was an amalgamation of languages, alphabets, cultures, religions and traditions, which ensured its short existence was littered with splits, conflicts, and shocking violence. In a sense, its somewhat surprising that it lasted as long as it did.

The Kingdom of Yugoslavia was particularly vulnerable to the forces that engulfed the rest of Europe at the end of the 1930s, including fascism and communism. When the Axis forces attacked in 1941, the country quickly capitulated and was dismembered by the Nazis and their allies. A separate Croatian state was formed, led by Ante Paveli, who committed some of the worst crimes and human rights abuses of the war. The Balkan region was virtually emptied of its Jewish population, victims of the Nazi Holocaust.

Internal issues plagued the country in its final years and Tito had tinkered with Yugoslavias constitution on several occasions. His final attempt, in 1974, saw the partial separation of Kosovo crucial in the Serb national story from the rest of Serbia. A number of reasons led to the rising Serb nationalist sentiment after Titos death, but Kosovo was a central aspect. Yugoslavia required far-sighted, magnanimous leaders to avoid internecine disputes, but none were available, or at least in positions of power in the 1980s.

Resumen:

'Diario de un loco', publicada en 1834, es una historia muy corta, de apenas viente páginas, pero que se compensa con lo hilarante y extraño de su contenido, muy al estilo de Gogol.

La historia es escrita a manera de diario íntimo contado en primera persona y ordenado cronológicamente por un funcionario público, llamado Aksenti Ivanovich (42 años) y de un apellido extraño, según comentario de uno de los personajes. .

El diario inicia un tal 3 de octubre, no se precisa el año y se va narrando muy escasamente de lo que le va sucediendo al personaje. Generalmente es sobre asuntos oficinescos.

En fin, es una obra, que describe un cuadro psicopatológico de un funcionario público y su descarrilamiento mental.

Summary:

My mother's New Year's resolution for me was simple: make a serious effort at putting myself out there and dating again, and do it for one full year.

Or until I fell in love. Whichever came first.

How hard could one year of swipes and matches and awkward first dates be?

In a word: bad.

In nine words: bad and also hilarious, demoralizing, exhausting, and ridiculously amusing.

But the only thing worse than dating in the era of hookup apps and unsolicited dick pics is the absolute whole-life-flail of falling in love.

Narrated by Amy McFadden with Tim Paige.

Produced by Blunder Woman Productions and One Night Stand Studios.

Resumen:

El corazón delator (título original en inglés: The Tell-Tale Heart), también conocido como El corazón revelador, es un cuento del escritor estadounidense Edgar Allan Poe, publicado por primera vez en el periódico literario The Pioneer en enero de 1843. Poe lo republicó más tarde en su periódico The Broadway Journal en su edición del 23 de agosto de 1845.

La historia presenta a un narrador anónimo obsesionado con el ojo enfermo (que llama 'ojo de buitre') de un anciano con el cual convive. Finalmente decide asesinarlo. El crimen es estudiado cuidadosamente y, tras ser perpetrado, el cadáver es despedazado y escondido bajo las tablas del suelo de la casa. La policía acude a la misma y el asesino acaba delatándose a sí mismo, imaginando alucinadamente que el corazón del viejo se ha puesto a latir bajo la tarima.

No se sabe cuál es la relación entre víctima y asesino. Se ha sugerido que el anciano representa en el cuento a la figura paterna, y que su 'ojo de buitre' puede sugerir algún secreto inconfesable. La ambigüedad y la falta de detalles acerca de los dos personajes principales están en agudo contraste con el detallismo con que se recrea el crimen.

Título: La Caida de la Casa Usher

Editor: Bookwire

Categorías: Fiction & Literature, Classics

Resumen:

La caída de la Casa Usher es la quintaesencia del cuento gótico: una casa embrujada, un paisaje lúgubre, dos hermanos gemelos, una enfermedad misteriosa Todos los elementos del género son fácilmente identificables y, sin embargo, parte del terror que inspira esta historia se debe a su vaguedad; no podemos decir a ciencia cierta en qué parte del mundo o exactamente cuándo tiene lugar la historia. Estamos solos con el narrador en este espacio embrujado, y ni nosotros ni el narrador sabemos por qué. Publicado por primera vez en la revista Burton's Gentleman's Magazine en 1839, es una de las obras de Poe preferidas por la crítica, y la que el propio autor consideraba la más lograda que había escrito.
