Audio lectures on history. Audiobook Audio Library "Knowledge is Power" - History of World Civilizations. Birth of Europe. Ariadna Tyrkova, iron lady of Russian liberalism

And since we started talking about books, I've recently become addicted to audio lectures.

If it will be interesting to a dear audience - we will put it on 100 books

So, let's begin.

The first were Strelkov's lectures on the History of Ancient Greece. A very good course, it gives a general picture of the history of Greece, the internal logic of development, etc. In fact, both Strelkov and Ryabov are parts of a large course of lectures that was recorded for distance learning by the Institute of Cultural History, and recently I found it entirely on torrents. They are number one

History of Russia from other times to the 16th century (2:49:37), Ryabov Pyotr Vladimirovich, Candidate of Philosophical Sciences, Associate Professor

Judaism Christianity Islam (9:12.24), Shilkina Margarita Vasilievna, Candidate of Philosophy. Assistant professor.

Christianity (3.23:38), Shilkina Margarita Vasilievna, Candidate of Philosophical Sciences. Assistant professor.

Ancient Philosophy (2.08:47), Girenok Fyodor Ivanovich

2. Anatoly Alekseeviya Alekseev, History of the Bible
http://russianlectures.ru/ru/author/alek seev/
one of the outstanding domestic biblical scholars, a very good overview course - 10 lectures of 20-30 minutes each - on the history of the Bible, I listened with great pleasure


3. Lectures on philosophy and history of science for graduate students of the Faculty of Philosophy of Moscow State University
http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4 445403
lectures - I have no doubt - are excellent, especially for philosophers, but, unfortunately, a bad recording from a dictaphone; I realized that I could not listen, but maybe someone is fine


3_1. History of Philosophy of Science for Postgraduate Students of the Faculty of Physics
http://www.medialecture.ru/node/1475
also Moscow State University, read by Vladimir Yakovlev. I haven’t listened yet, I just tested the very beginning - audibility is OK
http://vfc.org.ru/rus/personalsites/shap oshnikov/audioPGS2011-2012.php - another lecture for graduate students, read by Shaposhnikov
it seems that Yakovlev's lectures are for graduate students of the Faculty of Mathematics, Shaposhnikov - for the entire stream of natural scientists, also graduate students

everything below is what I found and put in the queue, but have not personally listened to yet, except for the first lecture on the philosophy of mathematics

it is clear that our tastes may differ, and much of what I did not consider it necessary to put on my author's list may well be a master read for you - for example, philology

49 pages of all sorts of things, diamonds are searched for by pens by stupidly scrolling through the endless secrets of pikapers (AAAAAAAA how to build a wife and have a mistress AAAAAAAA), Orthodox yoga, interpretations of the Koran, the ubiquitous Kurginyan, ethers of the echo of Moscow, fragments of Lunacharsky and Stalin's speech, as well as Yeltsin's New Year's address and Sobchak 1993

http://russianlectures.ru/ru/
The golden fund of lectures of the Russian world, almost all of them are professors of St. Petersburg State University. So far, I have only downloaded Alekseev (there are mostly philologists, but I don’t feel in the mood for philology now), but I think many will find something else interesting for themselves. I also advise you to pay attention to Krivosheev's lectures on Russian history.

http://www.medialecture.ru/
Open archive of audio lectures. a lot of things - for example, there are courses on the history and philosophy of science for graduate students of Moscow State University, and there is Alexander Gelievich with postmodern philosophy, an introduction to jargoology and puzzles as a tool for developing creativity. There is even the Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas Kuhn, but unfortunately only the first chapter (((

Absolutely agree. Basovskaya is a lot of unnecessary words, little thought, narration at the level of neighborly gossip, self-confidence.

There are a lot of approximations, inaccuracies, in some places the presentation is primitive. It looks like people are just PR - in any way.

Thanks guys for the warning. In general, I don’t like it when women climb into places where they have nothing to do. Not a story, but some kind of tinsel in blue.
Can anyone tell me where to get a serious presentation like Granovsky, Gumilyov, Kostomarov (I already have all this), but maybe something else has appeared, not leafy?

Hehe Ah birth! even representative! up to democracy!
Tritely at that time, under Henry III, another short-term resuscitation of the "Great Charter" from John Landless (the most useless English king in their entire history) took place in favor of the robber barons. There were robber barons, but there were democrat barons. These democrats then put the grandson of Henry III on a red-hot spit, they are gryat for the cause
In 1265, the main democrat was banged, the rest of the barons pissed, and the topic of the "Great Charter" was again closed.

Very interesting presentation. Would you like to record your options on audio? As a musical accompaniment, rap is very suitable.

Representing this person in the circles of literary critics does not make sense. For everyone else, an explanation: perhaps the most famous contemporary researcher in Russia of American literature of the 20th century, aestheticism, European modernism and the author of several fiction books. On his website or official YouTube channel, there is a whole selection of free lectures on Salinger, Kafka, Eliot and Oscar Wilde. Anyone interested in foreign literature is simply contraindicated to pass by.

"Smoking Room Gutenberg"


A relatively recent non-profit educational project specializing in live events held in Moscow and other major cities. Recordings of the speeches of the local lecturers are posted in the official VKontakte group in a completely open access. The range of topics is incredibly wide - as the organizers themselves write, "during one evening, a biologist, philologist and cosmologist can speak to you." The format is rather popular science and more than fascinating.


Despite the sufficient popularity of this resource, it is impossible not to say about it. This world-famous site creates sequential courses of lectures and weekly exercises that any registered user can watch and complete for free. At the end of most courses, an online exam is expected. More than 109 different universities, mostly foreign ones, are involved in the development of materials. Of course, the English language dominates here, but if you wish, it is easy to gnaw at the granite of science with the help of the great and mighty. There are, for example, courses from the Higher School of Economics or joint laboratories of ABBYY and Digital October.

Academic Earth


Another academic English-language resource. As in the case of Cursera, many different universities take part in the development of the project, including Harvard, Princeton, Stanford and other high-profile names. Also presented are mainly courses, all materials of which are available for free download. A separate big plus is the local interface: Academic Earth is always happy to tell its visitor what to go and see, there is a convenient division by university, specialty and level of difficulty. Many video lectures are posted separately from the main courses in a special section, and authorization is not even required to view them. True, here you will not find texts and videos in Russian, so you will have to educate yourself in the language of Shakespeare.

Arzamas


In the list, one cannot ignore the project of the former editor-in-chief of the Big City magazine Philip Dzyadko, which shot loudly this year. Arzamas offers its users entire courses consisting of video lectures, articles and documentary photo galleries. Entirely focused on the humanities. Here you can learn how to listen to classical music, what Petersburg was like on the eve of the 1917 revolution, read about the beliefs of South American Indians or about the English Renaissance theater. Fortunately, the project is completely Russian-speaking.

"Skepticism"


An online magazine that also produces occasional printed almanacs. Offers its readers materials of a truly academic level. Therefore, it is not worth starting an attempt to figure it out, for example, in capitalism at the beginning of the 20th century. But for people involved in history, culture, sociology, religion or philosophy, the resource is absolutely invaluable. A characteristic feature of "Skepsis" is also the fact that the authors of the magazine do not hesitate to speak in their articles and lectures on topical modern topics, whether it is education or political manipulation. Editor-in-Chief - Candidate of Philosophical Sciences Sergey Solovyov.

Khan Academy


The project of a native of Bangladesh and a graduate of Harvard Salman Khan is not exchanged for additional materials. All that is here is a whole galaxy of microlectures in all possible scientific specialties. Moreover, despite the serious academic approach, many disciplines are given here starting from the most basic foundations. Of course, it will not work to study these disciplines in depth, but it is easy to get a general idea. The site exists thanks to donations, and Google provides a significant part of the financial support. They are also involved in translating the Academy's videos into the world's languages ​​(on the list so far, however, there are only English, Spanish, French, Norwegian, Portuguese and Turkish).

Education


Let's return to the most popular platform in Runet - the social network vk.com. Education - this is an extremely curious community that exists exclusively on VKontakte. The administration of the public publishes video and audio recordings of lectures with enviable regularity, mainly in the humanities and natural areas. It is remarkable that here you can also listen to outdated materials, such as, for example, conversations about culture with Joseph Brodsky - this is also part of the community's content. There are also films, documentaries and more, and audiobooks.

"Orpheus"


Radio station "Orpheus" not only provides an opportunity to listen to classical music, but also to learn more about it and culture in general. Recordings of programs in a huge number are presented on the official website. Franco Zeffirelli, Stanley Kubrick, Johann Sebastian Bach and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Lloyd Webber and rock operas - all in the format of twenty- and thirty-minute radio recordings. You can hardly find such a large number of really interesting and professionally made podcasts in Russian anywhere else.

Lectures by Alexander Piatigorsky


Photo: from the archive of Alexander Pyatigorsky

Andrei Bely Prize winner, Soviet-British philosopher and orientalist, translator from dead languages ​​Alexander Pyatigorsky is an almost legendary person. On the website of Radio Liberty you can listen to the full cycle of his lectures on various philosophical ideas from Buddha and Zarathustra to Sartre and Chomsky. Lectures of a very small volume - eight minutes each - but extremely informative. Each in the form of a text is accompanied by a small professional commentary, which facilitates the perception of the material.

Lectures by Natalia Basovskaya


Photo: Natalia Krasilnikova / PhotoXPress

The project of the radio "Echo of Moscow" program "Everything is so" is a series of conversations on the topic of foreign history. The author is Natalya Basovskaya, a medievalist, Doctor of Historical Sciences, the largest Russian specialist on the Hundred Years War. All materials exist both in the form of text and in the form of podcasts. You will not find here a chewing of historical facts and successive events. The emphasis is on the analysis of the logic of the historical process, the meaning of various cultural myths, periods and events.

TED


Since 1984, the annual TED conference dedicated to "technology, design and entertainment" has been held in the United States. It was the first to present a CD, a Macintosh computer, the first experiments in creating artificial intelligence. Participants include scientists from all over the world, public figures and Nobel laureates. The official TED website is a treasure trove for those who want to learn about new developments in any field of science. Here are the speeches from the main conference, local TED events and just individual lectures. Knowledge of English is necessary, but this is perhaps the only negative. The resource is extremely conveniently organized, synchronized with all major social networks, there is an excellent system for finding materials and news.
