How to Believe: John Donne , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 43min
John Donne is well known as one of literature’s great love poets. But his writing is also infused with a deep-yet-playful philosophy. Satirist and cleric both, in Roz Kaveney’s engrossing ebook, John Donne is the man who thought too much - about love and death and his rejection of the choices of his family to rise up the church's ranks. The How to Believe series of books explores the teachings, philosophies, and beliefs of major thinkers and religious texts. In a short, easy-to-access format, leading writers present new understandings of these perennially important ideas. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kelly Birch.

The Devil's Dictionary, A-J , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 241min
Entries A-J. The Devil's Dictionary was begun in a weekly paper in 1881 and was continued in a desultory way at long intervals until 1906. The author hopes to be held guiltless by those to whom the work is addressed: enlightened souls who prefer dry wines to sweet, sense to sentiment, wit to humor, and clean English to slang. A conspicuous and, it is hoped, not unpleasant feature of the book is its abundant illustrative quotations from eminent poets, chief of whom is that learned and ingenius cleric Father Gassalasca Jape, SJ, whose lines bear his initials. Ambrose Bierce disappeared in Mexico in 1913. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jack Chekijian. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/mike/001731/bk_mike_001731_sample.mp3.
