Story1
Today is a gift - that’s why it’s called the present, or as Ella Wheeler Wilcox says, it’s the "privilege". This timeless poetical work of art is reminiscent of Shakespeare’s "All the World’s a Stage", for both poems chronicle the various stages of life, however, this one ends with an air of optimism and sage advice. The poem was first published in the early 1900s and is every bit as relevant today as it was at the time of its conception. "Life Is a Privilege" is a mental elevator laced with exquisite poetic devices. Nutritional psychological food for the soul.

Story0
"Pendant latin de "l'Iliade" et de "l'Odyssée", "l'Énéide" est l'épopée latine par excellence qui fit de Virgile (70 - 19 av. J.-C.) le plus grand poète latin de l'Antiquité. Ce long récit aux péripéties captivantes raconte les aventures du Troyen Énée, ancêtre mythique du peuple romain, depuis la guerre de Troie jusqu'à son installation victorieuse dans le Latium. L'épopée, notamment l'histoire d'amour entre Didon et Énée ou la descente aux enfers d'Énée pour y retrouver son père, inspira de nombreuses œuvres littéraires et artistiques à toutes les époques."

Masterfully read by award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti, travel to the town of Hamelin suffering from a rat infestation, when a piper dressed in multicolored ("pied") clothing appeared, claiming to be a rat-catcher. He promised the mayor a solution to their problem with the rats. The mayor, in turn, promised to pay him for the removal of the rats (according to some versions of the story, the promised sum was 1,000 guilders). The piper accepted and played his pipe to lure the rats into the Weser River, where they all drowned. The rest is a legend enjoyed for centuries.

Paradise Lost is one of the most brilliant works of poetry ever written in the English language. With ease and grace, John Milton's words paint a picture of the fall of man, epically layering his words with all the innocence and treachery that such a fantastic tale deserves. Through Milton's words we witness the downfall of Adam and Eve as well as the epic battle between good and evil.

Story1
"Les fleurs du mal", in english "The Flowers of Evil", is a volume of French poetry by Charles Baudelaire. The poems deal with themes relating to decadence and eroticism. The author and the publisher were prosecuted in France under the regime of the Second Empire as an "outrage aux bonnes mœurs" ("an insult to public decency"). Because of this prosecution, Baudelaire was fined 300 francs. Victor Hugo announced that Baudelaire had created "un nouveau frisson" (a new shudder, a new thrill) in literature.

Le viol est-il un tabou dans notre société ? Cinq femmes violées, cinq archétypes de viols perpétrés aujourd'hui, cinq cas inspirés de faits réels et de personnes ayant existé. À tour de rôle, les cinq victimes vont devoir répondre à un interrogatoire et prouver leur "innocence". Ce questionnement qui semble d'abord utile et légitime devient obsessionnel et oppressant. C'est le questionnement de la police, celui de la justice, celui de la société, le harcèlement et la ronde infernale de questions qui vont fondre sur la victime, jusqu'à l'absurde, qui vont faire naître le doute, rendre la victime suspecte et la faire apparaître comme coupable.

Le narrateur prend le bus à une heure d'affluence. Il observe un jeune homme avec un chapeau et un cou trop long. Celui-ci s'énerve contre son voisin qui, dit-il, le bouscule chaque fois que passe quelqu'un. Voyant une place libre, il finit par aller s'asseoir. Deux heures plus tard, le narrateur voit le jeune homme place Saint-Lazare qui discute avec un ami de questions vestimentaires. Cette brève histoire est racontée quatre-vingt-dix-neuf fois, de quatre-vingt-dix-neuf manières différentes. Mise en images, portée sur la scène des cabarets, elle a connu une fortune extraordinaire.

Story1
Jacques Prévert se laissa convaincre d'enregistrer lui-même quelques-uns de ses textes. Il le fit "naturellement", sans ôter sa cigarette, ce qui explique une diction assez particulière. Un guitariste est là pour qu'il se sente moins seul dans le studio. Le jeu a dû leur plaire car ils recommencèrent plusieurs fois. Dits par l'auteur, ces poèmes ont la nudité de l'enfance, le goût du fruit défendu, les parfums des fleurs sauvages, la vivacité des mauvaises herbes chères à Brassens, et la couleur sanguine des pommes d'amour à la fête foraine. Bon appétit !
