Dans "Ma Vie" de David Hume, traduit en français par Jean-Baptiste Antoine Suard, l'auteur relate son parcours personnel, intellectuel, et philosophique. Hume, en tant que philosophe écossais majeur du XVIIIe siècle, partage des anecdotes sur sa vie, ses influences, et ses expériences qui ont façonné sa pensée.L'ouvrage contient des réflexions sur ses travaux philosophiques, ses relations avec d'autres penseurs de l'époque, ainsi que sur les événements historiques marquants de son temps. Hume partage ses perspectives sur la nature humaine, la religion, et d'autres sujets qui ont occupé une place importante dans son ¿uvre.extrait : Il est difficile de parler de soi longtemps sans vanité. Je serai donc court. On pourra cependant regarder comme un trait de vanité la fantaisie que j'ai d'écrire ma vie; mais ce récit ne contiendra guère que l'histoire de mes écrits; et en effet, presque toute ma vie s'est consumée en occupations et en travaux littéraires. D'ailleurs, le genre de succès qu'ont eu d'abord la plupart de mes ouvrages n'est pas fait pour être un sujet de vanité.En 1751, je quittai la campagne pour la ville, qui est la véritable résidence d'un homme de lettres. En 1752, je publiai à Edimbourg, où je vivais alors, mes Discours politiques, le seul de mes ouvrages qui ait eu du succès en paraissant. Il fut très bien accueilli et en Angleterre et en Écosse. On publia à Londres dans la même année mes Recherches sur les principes de la morale, celui de tous mes écrits, historiques, philosophiques ou littéraires, qui (s'il m'est permis d'avoir une opinion sur ce sujet) me paraît sans comparaison le meilleur. On n'y fit aucune attention lorsqu'il parut.Je terminerai ceci en historien exact, par la peinture de mon caractère. Je suis, ou plutôt j'étais (car c'est le ton que je dois prendre en parlant de moi, et qui m'enhardit même à dire ce que je pense), j'étais, dis-je, un homme d'un caractère doux, maître de moi-même, d'une humeur ouverte, gaie et sociale, capable d'amitié, mais très peu susceptible de haine, et très modéré dans toutes mes passions. Le désir même de la renommée littéraire, qui a été ma passion dominante, n'a jamais aigri mon caractère, malgré les fréquents revers que j'ai éprouvés. Ma conversation n'était désagréable ni aux jeunes gens, ni aux oisifs, ni aux hommes studieux et instruits; et comme je trouvais un plaisir particulier dans la société des femmes honnêtes, je n'ai pas eu lieu d'être mécontent de la manière dont j'en ai été traité. En un mot, quoiqu'il n'y ait guère eu d'hommes distingués en quelque genre que ce soit qui n'aient eu à se plaindre de la calomnie, je n'ai jamais senti l'atteinte de sa dent envenimée; et quoique je me sois exposé assez légèrement à la rage des factions politiques et religieuses, elles ont paru se dépouiller en ma faveur de leur férocité ordinaire. Mes amis n'ont jamais eu besoin de justifier aucune circonstance de ma conduite ni de mon caractère. Ce n'est pas que les fanatiques n'eussent été disposés, comme on peut bien le croire, à fabriquer et à répandre des fables à mon désavantage, mais ils n'ont jamais pu en inventer une seule qui eût quelque apparence de probabilité. Je ne puis pas dire qu'il n'y ait point de vanité à faire ainsi ma propre oraison funèbre, mais j'espère que du moins, on ne la trouvera pas hors de propos : c'est un point de fait qui va être bientôt éclairci et constaté.

"The History of England, Volume 1" was penned in the 18th century by renowned philosopher and historian David Hume. It provides a thorough history of England's contributions to politics, culture, and the arts. His understanding of the past changed significantly as a result of the Enlightenment. Hume's viewpoint is based on reason, historical observation, and an understanding of the effect of human nature. In "The History of England, Vol. 1," Hume covers a wide range of fascinating subjects. The author talks about a lot of historical eras, like the Anglo-Saxons, the Normans, and the Plantagenets, as well as the Roman invasion. The work by Hume is accurate and thorough in its assessment of key historical personalities, events, and governmental systems. Because it is understandable to people of all reading abilities, offers intelligent criticism, and recounts history as it actually happened, his work is well-liked.

The Red Storm rising never materialized; the MAGAmite militias collapsed after filling their ranks with summer soldiers, sunshine patriots and populist prostitutes. The great criminal ventures hidden by the dastard Devine and his perverted, mongrel-mix of theocracy, national socialism and idiocracy were illuminated by truth for all to see. Time had come to lower the curtain on this tragic comedy. Devine and his Harlots of Hate were forced to return to their sulfurous domain of outer darkness, bypassing Purgatory, heading directly for Hell.

When a powerful hurricane passes over North Carolina's Cape Fear River, its churning vortex scours objects from the riverbed and in the process, uncovers evidence of grisly crimes that will open old wounds and rattle the community of Ricetown. An investigative reporter, Clark McGruder, peels away years of lies and deceit as he pursues those responsible for the crimes. His exposé becomes a weapon of truth, an article of faith and an act of courage.

In his farewell address, George Washington urged Americans to place the interests of the Nation over their political affiliations. He understood history, the fragility of democracy, human nature and tyrannical cunning. Washington knew how unscrupulous men could seduce the people and break their spirit by sowing mutual distrust. In today's America, demagoguery, division and attempts to subvert the rule of law in the pursuit of power threaten democracy as never before. The time has come to unmask these anti-democratic scoundrels-and Prehensile Tales does just that.
