Story1
On Clemency is a two volume (incomplete) hortatory essay written in 55-56 CE by Seneca the Younger, a Roman Stoic philosopher, to the emperor Nero in the first five years of his reign. From Seneca's remarks, it would appear that it was written after Nero had turned 18, which would place it after the murder of his rival Britannicus in 55 AD. It may therefore have been written partly as an apology, perhaps as a means of assuring the Roman nobility that the murder would be the end, not the beginning of bloodshed.

Story0
The Allegory of the Cave appears in Plato’s Republic and compares the effect of education and the lack of it on human nature. It is written as a dialogue between Plato's brother and Socrates, who tells of people that have been chained to the wall of a cave their whole lives. They see shadows projected on the wall from objects passing in front of a fire behind them. Socrates explains that the philosopher is like a prisoner who has escaped the cave and realizes that the shadows on the wall are not the true reality at all.

Il était temps de rendre à Paul Arène (1843-1896) l'hommage qui lui revient ! Ce professeur, journaliste, écrivain provençal fut oublié au profit du grand Alphonse Daudet (1840-1897) qui lui doit cependant plusieurs des Lettres de mon Moulin. Cet enregistrement a le mérite de placer les talents de ces deux amis côte à côte, pour notre plus grand plaisir. Textes de Paul Arène : Le Linot aveugle, L'Âne de Nazaire, Les haricots de Pitalugues. Textes d'Alphonse Daudet : La chèvre de Monsieur Seguin, L'Arlésienne, Le sous-préfet aux champs.

Caratacus is one of Britain's greatest kings. Not only did this Iron Age war leader single-handedly direct armed resistance against the Roman legions for eight years across southern England and Wales, but his name, deeds and exploits later resonated down through history. In the first detailed biography of Caratacus, Miles Russell deploys new research, placing the king in an archaeological and historical context, explaining his pivotal role in the early years of Roman Britain before looking at his literary legacy and reception in modern politics.
