Story
Intended to be a defense of the Christian religion, Pensées is a penetrating collection of thoughts on faith, reason, and theology. Unfinished at the time of Pascal's death, the book consists of philosophical fragments on the "wretchedness" of man and the controversial schisms of the church at the time. It includes the philosopher's infamous wager encouraging belief over agnosticism, as well as his thoughts on numerous other topics. Endlessly quotable, Pensées overflows with pearls of wisdom, each elusive sentence pregnant with a universe of thought.

Story
Compiled after his death in 1662, Pascal's "pensées" (thoughts) are his ideas for a book in defense of faith in a rational world. These fragments give evidence of a profoundly original thinker who had resolved the conflict between his scientific mind and heart-felt faith. This audiobook begins with an analysis of the difference between mathematical and intuitive thinking and goes on to consider the value of skepticism, contradictions, feeling, memory, and imagination.

Story
For Christians, the account of Pascal's conversion is particularly moving as well as Pascal's immediate response to share the Gospel with his father, his sister and even with the nobleman who was his financial patron. This book is written on a 5th-6th grade reading level, but younger children will enjoy listening to it.

Harry Haller loue un modeste meublé chez une logeuse pour quelques mois ; la cinquantaine, l'homme est bien mis, poli et discret mais attise les curiosités. Le personnage semble lointain, farouche, vivant en marge de ses contemporains qu'il observe avec ironie. Le manuscrit qu'il laissera suite à son départ nous permet de pénétrer son univers. Le roman le plus connu de Hermann Hesse, prix Nobel de littérature en 1946, il est parmi les incontournables chef-d'œuvres du XXème siècle.

Story
"600 Quotations from French Philosophy" is a collection of thoughts and reflections from six of the greatest French thinkers of all time. France’s influence on Western philosophy cannot be understated, from the Age of Enlightenment through to the founding of modern philosophy. Many of these quotes have as much resonance today as they did when they were first coined. Superb for dipping in and out of, there are more than a few thoughts in this book worth memorising, and even more that are sure to inspire.

Elles se proposent de convaincre le libertin comme le croyant d'entrer plus avant dans le mystère de Jésus. A cette fin, sont mises en œuvres plusieurs stratégies rhétoriques qui sont comme autant de moyens de toucher les hommes dans leur diversité.

À bien des égards, Renée, l'impétueuse narratrice de La Vagabonde, se pose comme le double de Colette qui signe ici son roman le plus personnel. Comme elle, sa jumelle littéraire est divorcée, actrice de music-hall, écrivaine et surtout farouchement indépendante. Elle se laisse pourtant toucher par Max, un homme beau, brillant et riche : une intrigue simplissime dont Colette a l'audace de prendre le contre-pied pour mieux interroger l'indépendance, le courage et la liberté des femmes et réaffirmer leur force.

Story
In this work, Pascal draws an analogy between a man who was appointed king just because he resembled a long-lost king and those who are rich and powerful. He argues that the twists and turns of life are all due to chance and unforeseen events. The wealthy and powerful ought thus to despise desire and its kingdom and aspire to that kingdom of love in which all the subjects breathe nothing but love and desire nothing but the benefits of love.

Story
Pascal illuminates the substantial differences between the early church and the Church of today. Formerly, it was necessary to forsake the world in order to be received into the Church, while people now enter the Church at the same time as they enter the world. There was thus an essential distinction between the world and the Church, the two being considered as two opposites.
