Ingersoll on ERNEST RENAN
Col. Ingersoll, one of the most celebrated orators of his era and a close associate of Mark Twain and General Grant, embarks on an enlightening series of lectures on some of the worlds most iconic figures. Ingersoll underscores the profound influence these individuals have had on our society, stating, Without the contributions of these men and women of genius, our world would be stripped of its richness, its poetry and music would lose its soul, and all forms of captivating Art would lose their charm and become meaningless. This captivating series includes lectures on Shakespeare, Robert Burns, Abraham Lincoln, Voltaire and Walt Whitman; along with powerful speeches on The Great Infidels; Which Way? (Science or Superstition); and About the Holy Bible. Volume 3 also features two lectures on Humboldt and Thomas Paine from Volume 1, and an essay on Ernest Renan from Volume 11 (of the 12 volume Dresden Edition). Each lecture is available as a separate audiobook in the series titled Ingersoll Lectures, Famous People on Librivox. (Michele Fry)
