Essai historique et philosophique, ce livre prend la Révolution française pour terrain d’étude et ouvre une réflexion sur la psychologie des révolutions. Avec une analyse lucide et méthodique, Gustave Le Bon interroge les mécanismes qui entraînent les bouleversements: comment naissent les élans, comment se propagent les idées, comment les sociétés changent de cap.

He didn’t lead the revolution. He survived it. Joseph Stalin rose from a shoeless Georgian childhood to become the most feared dictator of the 20th century. Not by inspiring crowds, but by outliving, outkilling, and outmaneuvering everyone in his path.

He turned fear into policy, propaganda into scripture, and loyalty into silence. This audiobook is not a tribute.

Few Civil War generals attracted as much debate and controversy as Pierre Gustav Toutant Beauregard. He combined brilliance and charisma with arrogance and histrionics. He was a Catholic Creole in a society dominated by white Protestants, which made him appear exotic next to the likes of Albert Sidney Johnston and Robert E. Lee. He was reviled by Jefferson Davis and mocked by Mary Chesnut in her diary.
