Free Download Thomas Molnar, "Bernanos: His Political Thought and Prophecy"
English | ISBN: 1952826756 | 2021 | 232 pages | PDF | 7 MB
"I am a Catholic writer," stated Georges Bernanos. "You see in me neither economist nor a politician; I am a novelist." Yet the same talents which brought him to the forefront of Catholic literature also established him as a notable social critic and commentator. In Bernanos: His Political Thought and Prophecy, Thomas Molnar provides a thorough examination of the profound insight and prophetic character of those critical writings. Among modern social critics, Bernanos holds a unique place: eschewing existentialism, humanism, romanticism, and historicism, he instead held the Christian faith as the beginning and end of his thought and brought its light to bear in "pleadings for freedom, for individuality, for life as conceived by God."

Free Download Frances Wood, "China’s First Emperor and His Terracotta Warriors"
English | ISBN: 0312381123 | 2008 | 224 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
Unifier or destroyer, law-maker or tyrant? China’s First Emperor (258-210 BC) has been the subject of debate for over 2,000 years. He gave us the name by which China is known in the West and, by his unification or elimination of six states, he created imperial China. He stressed the rule of law but suppressed all opposition, burning books and burying scholars alive. His military achievements are reflected in the astonishing terracotta soldiers-a veritable buried army-that surround his tomb, and his Great Wall still fascinates the world.

Free Download The Red Emperor: Xi Jinping and His New China (Audiobook)
English | August 29, 2024 | ASIN: B0CPQ5DKXJ | M4B@128 kbps | 10h 19m | 562 MB
Author: Michael Sheridan | Narrator: Daniel York Loh
The Red Emperor presents an eye-opening portrait of Xi Jinping, the man who presides over 1.4 billion people and the second largest economy on earth. Born a ‘princeling’ to one of Communist China’s ruling families, the young Xi was exiled to the countryside during the Cultural Revolution. He fought his way back to the top by stealth, privilege and guile. In 2012, following the spectacular fall of his rival Bo Xilai, Xi Jinping became the leader of China.
In a compulsively readable narrative, veteran foreign correspondent Michael Sheridan takes the reader from the poor, isolated country of Xi’s youth to the military and economic superpower of today. In Xi’s new China, family mafias struggle for power amid murder, corruption and sex scandals as ministers and generals vanish in purges. No one is safe in his techno-security state. Xi is an absolute ruler whose word is law on everything from war and peace to the ruthless campaign against Covid-19. He aims to dominate world trade, to defeat Western democracy and to make China the supreme power in the East. A loner and a risk-taker, he is the most consequential leader of our time.
