Oliver Twist |
Charles Dickens (1812 - 1870) |
Oliver Twist, the book that spawned many a modern film and musical. Born into poverty and orphaned, Oliver is sent to work in a squalid workhouse, he eventually flees this only to land himself in a world of crime and prostitution. Pickpockets, thieves, and prostitutes - this was the startling reality for the young boy, Oliver. A story that shocked society when it was first published, still horrifying today. A riveting read, Dickens at his legendary best. |

Protagoras |
Plato (427BC - 348BC) |
Set in dialogue form, the main players in this work are a young Socrates and an elderly sophist, Protagoras. Unusual to Plato's works, Protagoras also employs a cast of many others in the dialogue. In it, Plato once again explores the concept of virtue and whether or not it can be taught. Is virtue actually knowledge? And if so, can knowledge not be taught and thus also virtue? |
