Story
Étienne de la Boétie écrit le Discours sur la servitude volontaire en 1549 alors qu'il n'a que 18 ans. Si la question est politique, l'auteur ne se contente pas de critiquer les régimes tyranniques, il questionne aussi l'agent politique, celui qui est gouverné : comment peut-il se faire que "tant d'hommes, tant de bourgs, tant de villes, tant de nations endurent quelquefois un tyran seul, qui n'a de puissance que celle qu'ils lui donnent ?"

Story
On part en montagne pour éprouver la solitude, pour se sentir minuscule face à l’immensité de la nature. Nombreux sont les imprévus qui peuvent se présenter, d’une rencontre avec un cerf au franchissement d’une forêt déracinée par le vent. Sur un sentier escarpé des Dolomites, un homme chute dans le vide. Derrière lui, un autre homme donne l’alerte. Or, ce ne sont pas des inconnus. Compagnons du même groupe révolutionnaire quarante ans plus tôt, le premier avait livré le second et tous ses anciens camarades à la police.

Story
Les "Illuminations" ont été publiées en 1886, sous forme de feuilletons, dans la revue "La Vogue". Rimbaud a remis ces poèmes à Verlaine lors de leur rencontre à Stuttgart en mars 1875. C'est Verlaine qui s'est occupé de publier ces vers. Il y insère une préface dans laquelle il annonce que ces "ornementations colorées" se composent de "prose exquise ou vers délicieusement faux exprès".

Sibylle, à qui la jeunesse promettait un avenir brillant, a vu sa vie se défaire sous ses yeux. Comment en est-elle arrivée là ? Comment a-t-elle pu laisser passer sa vie sans elle ? Si elle pense avoir tout raté jusqu'à aujourd'hui, elle est décidée à empêcher son fils, Samuel, de sombrer sans rien tenter. Elle a ce projet fou de partir plusieurs mois avec lui à cheval dans les montagnes du Kirghizistan, afin de sauver ce fils qu'elle perd chaque jour davantage, et pour retrouver, peut-être, le fil de sa propre histoire.

« Pour la première fois depuis quinze ans, le nom de cette femme lui occupait l'esprit, et ce nom entraînerait à sa suite, certainement, le souvenir d'autres personnes qu'il avait vues autour d'elle, dans la maison de la rue du Docteur-Kurzenne. Jusque-là, sa mémoire concernant ces personnes avait traversé une longue période d'hibernation, mais voilà, c'était fini, les fantômes ne craignaient pas de réapparaître au grand jour. Qui sait ? Dans les années suivantes, ils se rappelleraient encore à son bon souvenir, à la manière des maîtres chanteurs.

Story
Ce texte fondateur du philosophe épicurien de la Grèce Antique qui regroupe poésie et philosophie se présente comme une tentative de "briser les forts verrous des portes de la nature", c'est-à-dire de révéler au lecteur la nature du monde et des phénomènes naturels. Selon Lucrèce, cette connaissance du monde doit permettre à l'homme de se libérer du fardeau des superstitions, notamment religieuses, constituant autant d'entraves qui empêchent chacun d'atteindre l'ataraxie ; la tranquillité de l'âme.

Story
"Dr Jekyll et Mr Hyde" est une nouvelle écrite par Robert Louis Stevenson et publiée en janvier 1886. Ce récit est devenu un modèle du genre d'épouvante à ressort psychanalytique. Le Dr Jekyll, gentleman londonien respectable, est envahi par l'idée d'avoir deux personnalités opposées en lui : la première est consciente et honorable, la seconde laisse place à toutes les perversions de son subconscient. Alors qu'il tente de détruire le Mr Hyde qui se trouve en lui, c'est le Dr Jekyll qui va peu à peu disparaître.

Sigmund Freud, le père de la psychanalyse, expose dans les "Essais de psychanalyse" ses théories concernant la structure psychique humaine. Après avoir posé l'existence de l'inconscient, il s'interroge sur le Moi conscient, et ce qui émane en lui des mécanismes de refoulement : le Ça. "Le Moi et le Ça" est la dernière partie des "Essais". Tout l'édifice psychanalytique est ainsi érigé dès 1923, à travers ce texte théorique et accessible, qui n'en finit pas de questionner notre fonctionnement de pensée.

"Est-il, pour moi, lieu plus épargné, abri plus sûr, retraite plus paisible, qu'un studio d'enregistrement ? Enfermé de toutes parts, en capitonné, assis devant le seul micro, à voix haute - sans effort de projection, dans le médium -, deux ou trois heures durant, je lis les pages d'un livre. Le monde est alors celui de ce livre. Le monde est dans le livre. Le monde est le livre. Je confie à la voix le soin de me représenter tout entier. Les mots écrits et lus me tiennent lieu de parfaite existence. Alors d'autres voix encore se font entendre, dans la mienne."

Bien qu'Oscar Wilde y développe l'idée d'un art dégagé de toute éthique, le jeune Dorian Gray va faire face à sa conscience morale à travers son portrait qui porte à sa place les traces de sa perversité et la décadence que le temps inflige aux esprits les plus purs.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
