The Forgotten Slave Trade The White European Slaves of Islam [Audiobook]
English | ASIN: B0BDGP2XG3 | 2022 | 6 hours and 19 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 174 MB
Everybody knows about the transatlantic slave trade. A century before Britain became involved in this terrible business, whole villages and towns in England, Ireland, Italy, Spain, and other European countries were being depopulated by slavers, who transported the men, women, and children to Africa, where they were sold. This is the forgotten slave trade, one which saw over a million Christians forced into captivity in the Muslim world. Starting with the practice of slavery in the ancient world, Simon Webb traces the history of slavery in Europe, showing that the numbers involved were vast and that the victims were often treated far more cruelly than black slaves in America and the Caribbean.

The First Black Archaeologist A Life of John Wesley Gilbert [Audiobook]
English | ASIN: B0BDHQFJM1 | 2022 | 9 hours and 56 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 274 MB
The First Black Archaeologist reveals the untold story of a pioneering African American classical scholar, teacher, community leader, and missionary. Born into slavery in rural Georgia, John Wesley Gilbert (1863-1923) gained national prominence in the early 1900s, but his accomplishments are little known today. Using evidence from archives across the US and Europe, from contemporary publications, and from newly discovered documents, this book chronicles Gilbert's remarkable journey. As we follow Gilbert from the segregated public schools of Augusta, Georgia, to the lecture halls of Brown University, to his hiring as the first black faculty member of Augusta's Paine Institute, and through his travels, we learn about the development of African American intellectual and religious culture, and about the enormous achievements of an entire generation of black students and educators. Listeners interested in the early development of American archaeology in Greece will find an entirely new perspective here, as Gilbert was one of the first Americans of any race to do archaeological work in Greece. Those interested in African American history and culture will gain an invaluable new perspective on a leading yet hidden figure of the late 1800s and early 1900s, whose life and work touched many different aspects of the African American experience.

Your heart is a miracle in motion, a marvel of construction unsurpassed by any human-made creation.

The Elizabethan Mind Searching for the Self in an Age of Uncertainty [Audiobook]
English | ASIN: B09XFFR8ZL | 2022 | 14 hours and 24 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 396 MB
The first comprehensive guide to Elizabethan ideas about the mind. What is the mind? How does it relate to the body and soul? These questions were as perplexing for the Elizabethans as they are for us today—although their answers were often startlingly different. Shakespeare and his contemporaries believed the mind was governed by the humors and passions, and was susceptible to the Devil's interference. In this insightful and wide-ranging account, Helen Hackett explores the intricacies of Elizabethan ideas about the mind. This was a period of turbulence and transition, as persistent medieval theories competed with revived classical ideas and emerging scientific developments. Drawing on a wealth of sources, Hackett sheds new light on works by Shakespeare, Marlowe, Sidney, and Spenser, demonstrating how ideas about the mind shaped new literary and theatrical forms. Looking at their conflicted attitudes to imagination, dreams, and melancholy, Hackett examines how Elizabethans perceived the mind, soul, and self, and how their ideas compare with our own.
