Le constat est implacable : l’être humain est un sujet parlant... et qui parle beaucoup ! Nombreux sont ceux et celles qui se sentent obligés de discourir, de causer, de deviser, mus par une impulsion, celle de rompre un silence parfois suspect, souvent gênant. La pratique philosophique vise à réconcilier les individus avec leur propre discours, discours qu’ils déprécient fréquemment, voire dénigrent. Comprendre à quoi sert notre parole pour mieux en user et trouver une langue juste pour dire qui nous sommes : voici les enjeux de cet ouvrage qui parlera, très certainement, à beaucoup !

Au-delà des ambitions littéraires et des rêves de reconnaissance, l'écriture est avant tout un appel. Entre réflexion philosophique et exploration pratique, découvrez comment l'acte d'écrire peut devenir un chemin de transformation, une quête de soi où chaque phrase trace la carte de notre paysage intérieur. Ce livre audio comprend également "La lettre", un conte philosophique d'Oscar Brenifier.

Pour quelles raisons l'intelligence peut-elle conduire à l'idiotie ? Il arrive en effet que des personnes brillantes ou cultivées paraissent parfois stupides ou agissent de manière inepte : en recherchant l'inouï, la performance et la perfection ; en voulant tout comprendre et avoir raison ; en modelant le réel à leur convenance. Affirmer son intelligence au détriment de l'intelligence elle-même : c'est à ce paradoxe que cet ouvrage s'attache, partant du principe que le génie académique ne garantit pas nécessairement la sagesse ni l'ingéniosité dans la vie quotidienne.

Buck O'Neil once described him as "Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, and Tris Speaker rolled into one". Among experts, he is regarded as the best player in Negro Leagues history. During his prime, he became a legend in Cuba and one of Black America's most popular figures. Yet even among serious sports fans, Oscar Charleston is virtually unknown today. 

In 1982, at the height of Guatemala’s civil war, 20 soldiers from the army’s commando unit, called the Kaibiles, invaded the farming village of Dos Erres. Masquerading as leftist guerillas, the squad members cut their way through the small town, killing more than 250 men, women, and children. Only a handful of people survived. One of them, a young boy, was adopted by Kaibil lieutenant Ramrez and raised by Ramrez’s family, who named him Oscar. Just three years old at the time of the massacre, Oscar grew up unaware of his true origins. It wasn’t until almost 30 years later, living in the suburbs of Boston with a family of his own, that Oscar would learn the truth.

This first collection of the correspondence of Oscar Wilde begins with the Irish playwright's earliest extant letter, thanking his mother for the hamper she had sent to him at school. It includes letters about his travels in Italy, his American lecture tour, the staging of his first play (Vera, or the Nihilists), arrangements for the publication of a friend's poetry collection, and exchanges in the press with artist James McNeill Whistler. The letters, some of which have been excerpted or redacted, are sourced from auction catalogues, newspapers, biographies, and other texts in the public ...

This is a 1905 memoir of one great litterateur’s latter days written by another great litterateur. This recording omits the numerous footnotes and two letters in French untranslated by the translator. -Summary by david wales

Consumers of biography are familiar with the division between memoirs of the living or recently dead written by those who "knew" the subject more or less intimately, and the more objective or scholarly accounts produced by later generations. In the case of Wilde, as presented to us by Frank Harris, we are in a way doubly estranged from the subject. We meet with Oscar the charismatic talker, whose tone of voice can never be reproduced – even if a more scrupulous biographer had set down his words accurately – and we are perhaps already aware of him as Wilde the self-destructive celebrity who...

Who can help but laugh when an ordinary journalist earnestly suggests limiting the artists creative freedom?” “We are forever governed by journalism.... Journalism reigns eternally.” One of the most notorious British tabloids missed the chance to partake in the moral frenzy surrounding Oscar Wilde’s trials in 1895. Yet, hypocritical journalists masquerading as moral guardians were abundant then, just as they are now. This expertly curated compendium, assembled by editor Stuart Mason, concludes with a gripping transcript of Wilde’s first appearance at the Old Bailey, where he faced ...

In Being Oscar,one of America’s most celebrated criminal defense attorneys recounts the stories and cases of his epic life. The Mafia’s go-to defender, he has tried an estimated 300 criminal cases, and won most of them. His roster of clients reads like a history of organized crime: Meyer Lansky, Nicky Scarfo, and "Lefty" Rosenthal, as well as Mike Tyson and boxing promoter Don King, along with a midget, a dentist, and a federal judge. After 35 years as a defender, he ran for mayor of Las Vegas, and America’s greatest Mob lawyer became the mayor of its sexiest city.

Dive into the intriguing world of Oscar Wilde through the lens of Frank Harris, who presents a unique perspective on the iconic figure. In this exploration, we are confronted with Wilde as both the charismatic conversationalist and the self-destructive celebrity who has become a symbol of gay identity and martyrdom. Harris, a flamboyant literary figure himself, offers a portrayal of Wilde’s homosexual experiences that reflects the attitudes of his time—seeing them as exclusive to the elite and not a contagion. To truly understand Wilde, we must navigate through a multitude of ...

In 1895 Oscar Wilde was convicted of gross indecency and sentenced to two years' hard labor. This account of his two trials was compiled from the original shorthand court reports by an anonymous author. While a more complete account of the trial was published several years later, it omitted the more 'sensational' exchanges. This shorter version was clearly intended for a more prurient reader. In it we hear Wilde's famous defence of "the love that dare not speak its name", and see the evidence mount as a succession of attractive young men step into the witness box to tell their tales. - Summary...
