Gegen das Vergessen: Dieses Hörbuch erinnert an den Schriftsteller und DDR-Regimekritiker Jürgen Fuchs (1950-1999). Schon früh erhält er Publikationsverbot, 1976 wird er verhaftet und ins Stasi-Gefängnis Berlin-Hohenschönhausen gebracht, 1977 nach West-Berlin abgeschoben. Dort engagiert er sich weiter, hält Kontakt zur Bürger- und Friedensbewegung in der DDR, setzt sich in seinen Werken mit seiner Verfolgung und der dogmatischen und inhumanen Gesellschaft auseinander. Damit steht er auch im Westen wie kaum ein anderer im Visier des MfS und ist zahlreichen "Zersetzungsmaßnahmen" ausgesetzt. Nach dem Mauerfall bemüht sich Fuchs um Aufklärung der Stasi-Verbrechen. 1999 stirbt er mit nur 48 Jahren an Leukämie.

Take a journey into the world of Oscar Wilde, and find out just how individualistic he was.

The ingenious artist we know as Michelangelo lived during the Renaissance in Northern Italy, and you could say that he was indeed a Renaissance man - he was a painter, sculptor, poet, and engineer all rolled up into one. Even though it has been some 450 years since his passing, his legacy remains one of the strongest on record. If the burgeoning art student of today wishes to learn from the best, he takes his notes directly from Michelangelo.

Jackson Pollock was without a doubt one of the twentieth century’s most controversial painters. He started out painting abstracts in the style of Pablo Picasso but soon branched out, establishing the “drip” method, which entails dripping or flinging paint directly onto the canvas. For this, he was both praised and demonized; still, he persisted on his own chosen path.

Voltaire, born François-Marie Arouet in Paris, France, was a writer and leading figure of the Enlightenment. His insistence that all authority could and must be questioned was so radical, he ended up in prison several times and was ultimately exiled. Voltaire’s writings were instrumental in influencing the American and French revolutions. Man as a being with natural rights was a radical concept at the time, but one which the American founding fathers embraced. Voltaire’s anger was specifically directed at the arbitrary powers of the state and the church.

Pierre-August Renoir, leader of the 19th-century Impressionist movement, spent his entire life perfecting his style. Rejected for decades, he depended on friends for a place to stay and money for painting supplies. Renoir lived in poverty until his 40's, and when he was finally discovered and hailed as a great artist, his health began to fail him. Still, Renoir never gave up his passion for painting. His need to create beauty was the driving force of his life, and throughout rejections and deteriorating health, Renoir retained an optimism that is reflected in his paintings.

The way essayist, Jonathan Franzen writes, is like “a fire-fighter, whose job, while everyone else is fleeing the flames of shame, is to run straight into them.” For the past 25 years, even as his novels have earned him worldwide acclaim, Franzen has led a second life as a risk-taking essayist. Now, at a moment when technology has inflamed tribal hatreds, he is back with a new collection of essays that recall us to more humane ways of being in the world. Franzen’s great loves are literature and birds, and The End of the End of the Earth is a passionate argument for both.
