Excerpt from Chroniques de la MerC'était un vaisseau bithynien, construit pour le plai sir de la navigation, non pour la guerre. A sa proue sans éperons étincelait un soleil d'or, dont les rayons semblaient sortir des flots, tandis qu'une lune d'argent ornait sa poupe couleur de saphir. Le roi Nicomede, en le plaçant sous la double protection d'apollon et de Diane, lui avait donné le nom grec de Didyme (deux). Il conduisait à Chypre un Romain, son hôte, que les guerres civiles avaient forcé de fuir l'italie.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Un Philosophe Sous Les Toits: Journal D'un Homme Heureux, Issue 1

<p>As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)</p>

Excerpt from Popular Legends of Brittany: An English Version of Souvestre's Foyer Breton, From a GermanMahrchen has now come again, and this time she has come a long, long way, - she has come from Brittany, where many clever, honest people live, and it is so far off, that you have to go all through France to get to it.' Well, she has brought home some stories, - stories that I as sure you are well worth listening to, and that nobody is ever tired of hearing. I have written them down for you, so that you may read them yourselves, or coax grandmother to read them to you; but once for all, I charge you, give good heed, for Mahrchen often teaches many a wise lesson, and if you pay attention to what she says, you will not have to learn the same things out of other books, which would be much harder to read, and would not give you half so much pleasure.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
