Martha Gellhorn was a strong-willed, self-made, modern woman whose journalism, and life, were widely influential at the time and cleared a path for women who came after her. An ardent anti-fascist, she wrote about real people doing real things with intelligence and passion. She is most famous, to her enduring exasperation, as Ernest Hemingway's third wife. Long after their divorce, her short tenure as "Mrs. Hemingway" from 1940 to 1945 invariably eclipsed her writing and, consequently, she never received her full due.

Veranlasst durch eine Rezension von August Wilhelm Schlegel zeigte Goethe sich im Dezember 1797 zuversichtlich, die Regeln des Epos und des Dramas herauszuarbeiten. "Seit der Erscheinung der Schlegelschen Recension meines Herrmanns habe ich die Gesetze der Epopée und des Dramas wieder durchgedacht und glaube auf gutem Wege zu seyn. Die Schwierigkeit bey diesen theoretischen Bemühungen ist immer die Dichtarten von allem zufälligen zu befreyen. Nächstens erhalten Sie wohl einen kleinen Aufsatz darüber und ich mag daher nichts weiter voraussagen." (Goethe an Schiller, 20.12.1797).

If you like to use your drive time for education by audiobook, consider this book for widening and deepening your view of an event you studied briefly in school - the Spanish conquest of the Americas. Conquistador Voices, which relies more heavily than most works of this kind on first-person accounts, neither glamorizes nor condemns the conquistadors. Somewhat in the manner of a modern film documentary, it treats the so-called conquest as an historical event that’s worth learning about for its own sake, with most of the moralizing left to the listener.
