Электронная книга: Theodore Zeldin «Elu varjatud rõõmud»
See on raamat otsingutest, mille eesmärgiks on leida uut laadi elamise viis. Kuidas pääseda eemale tüütutest töökaaslastest ja põgeneda organisatsioonidest, mille edu on rajatud stressile? Kas inimestel oleks võimalik anda oma eraelule mingi teistsugune sisu? Kui romantiline ideaal valmistab pettumust, siis kuidas oleks veel võimalik armastada ja olla armastatud? Kui rikkaks saavad ainult vähesed, siis kas on midagi, mis hüvitab allajäämise? Kui religioonid ja riigid ei saa omavahel läbi, siis kas sellel võib olla veel mingeid tagajärgi peale vaenu ja umbusu? Kas olukorras, kus vabadust napib, on ka muid valikuidpeale vastuhaku? Kui ettearvamatut on nii palju, siis mis võiks asendada auahnust? Neile küsimustele üritab leida vastuseid Oxfordi ülikooli õppejõud ja avara silmaringiga kirjanik Theodore Zeldin (snd 1933). Seni on temalt eesti keeles ilmunud sellised teosed nagu „Inimsuhete ajalugu”, „Vestluskunst” ja „Õnn”. Издательство: "Eesti digiraamatute keskus OU" (2015)

The Oxford Muse Foundation
The Oxford Muse Foundation ( [http://www.oxfordmuse.com www.oxfordmuse.com] ) was formed by Zeldin in
One of its principal projects is the Muse Portrait Database. Individuals are free to submit their own self-portraits, including whatever they want the world to know about them. However, many of the portraits are written by another person in the "voice" of the subject, as the result of a conversation between the two. The Oxford Muse claims that, through such conversations, it can help people "to clarify their tastes, attitudes and goals in many different aspects of life; and to sum up the conclusions they have drawn from their experiences in their own words."
Quotations
: "To be a catalyst is the ambition most appropriate for those who see the world as being in constant change, and who, without thinking that they can control it, wish to influence its direction."
: "The past is what provides us with the building blocks. Our job today is to create new buildings out of them."
:"What to do with too much information is the great riddle of our time."
:"To have a new vision of the future, it has always first been necessary to have a new vision of the past."
:"It is in the power of everybody, with a little courage, to hold out a hand to someone different, to listen, and to attempt to increase, even by a tiny amount, the quantity of kindness and humanity in the world. But it is careless to do so without remembering how previous efforts have failed, and how it has never been possible to predict for certain how a human being will behave. History, with its endless procession of passers-by, most of whose encounters have been missed opportunities, has so far been largely a chronicle of ability gone to waste. But next time two people meet, the result could be different. That is the origin of anxiety, but also of hope, and hope is the origin of humanity."
