The History of England Volume 3 From Henry VII to Mary I [Audiobook]

English | ASIN: B0DD51BS5G | 2024 | 19 hours and 46 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 565 MB
Author: David Hume
Narrator: Mark Elstob

The accession of Henry VII (reigned 1485-1509) to the throne of England, leading to the end of the Wars of the Roses, opened the door to Tudor rule, setting a different character to the monarchy. In Volume 3 of The History of England, Hume traces the story through turbulent and unpredictable times, the reigns of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, the brief period of Jane Grey; and concluding with the brutal religious persecutions of Mary I. Initially, Henry VII had to establish royal control and legitimacy. With his customary clarity and natural story-telling style, Hume tells how Henry established his authority with a firm, ruthless but sure hand. He suppressed insurrections, faced French incursions into Brittany, instability in Scotland, and other fractious relationships with Spain and Flanders. Just as important was his commitment to improving the monetary state of the country after the turmoil of the Wars of the Roses. As a result, he was able to pass on a wealthier England to his successor.

Capital Critique of Political Economy, Volume 1 [Audiobook]

English | ASIN: B0D6J2L3J9 | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~30:17:00 | 832 MB
A major new translation of the explosive book that transformed our world
Karl Marx (1818-1883) was living in exile in England when he embarked on an ambitious multivolume critique of the capitalist system of production. Though only the first volume saw publication in Marx’s lifetime, it would become one of the most consequential books in history. This magnificent new edition of Capital is a translation of Marx for the twenty-first century. It is the first translation into English to be based on the last German edition revised by Marx himself, the only version that can be called authoritative, and it features extensive commentary and annotations by Paul North and Paul Reitter that draw on the latest scholarship and provide invaluable perspective on the book and its complicated legacy. At once precise and easily digestible, this translation captures the momentous scale and sweep of Marx’s thought while recovering the elegance and humor of the original source.
