The Greatest Short Stories of Anton Chekhov: A Collection Of Fifty Stories
“Life is a vexatious trap; when a thinking man reaches maturity and attains to full consciousness he cannot help feeling that he is in a trap from which there is no escape.” one of the greatest Russian short story writers and an exemplary playwright, Anton Chekhov penned down some of the finest short stories and plays in literature. His works continue to be translated into various languages across the world. This edition brings together his early short stories along with the outstanding short fiction written in his later years. It includes ‘the death of a government Clerk,’ ‘The Huntsman,’ ‘Oh! The public,’ ‘anyuta,’ ‘misery,’ ‘The lottery ticket,’ ‘a dreary story,’ ‘peasant wives,’ ‘The lady with the dog,’ and his last completed story, ‘betrothed.’ An editorial note precedes each work.
The Republic
?I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing.?What is Justice? Why do men behave justly? in the ideal state, how should women, children and property be treated in the ruling middle class?Join Socrates along with the Athenians and other interlocutors as they question, argue and discuss their perceptions of an ideal community and combine argument and myth to commend a life organized by reason. Regarded as the culminating achievement of Plato, the Republic, in the form of a Socratic dialogue, goes on to argue that the world of everyday objects imperfectly imitates the world of Forms. it also expounds Plato?s belief that there is an ancient quarrel between poetry and philosophy and acknowledges the influence of art upon the mind. The Republic is undoubtedly one of Plato?s masterworks and one of the most influential and widely read books in the history of philosophy.With a lasting historical influence on the world culture, the Republic is inherent with the power to change the world.
