Paul Lafargue's masterpiece, The Right To Be Lazy, at once funny and serious, witty and profound, elegant and forceful, is a logical expansion of The Right to the Pursuit of Happiness announced by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence. It was not only extremely popular but also brought about pragmatic results, inspiring the movement for the eight-hour day and equal pay for men and women who perform equal work. It survives as one of the very few pieces of writing to come out of the international socialist movement of the nineteenth century that is not only readable-even enjoyable-but pertinent. This new translation by Len Bracken, fuller than previous versions in English, is supplemented by Lafargue's little-known talk on The Intellectuals.

The Apology of Socrates is Plato's version of the speech given by Socrates as he unsuccessfully defended himself in 399BCE against the charges of "corrupting the young, and by not believing in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel" (24b). "Apology" here has its earlier meaning (now usually expressed by the word "apologia") of speaking in defense of a cause or of one's beliefs or actions. The revised edition of this popular textbook features revised vocabulary and grammatical notes that now appear on the same page as the text, sentence diagrams, principal parts of verbs listed both by Stephanus page and alphabetically, word frequency list for words occurring more than twice, and complete vocabulary.

Also sprach Zarathustra ist ein grundlegendes Werk der abendländischen Literatur und gilt weithin als Friedrich Nietzsches Meisterwerk. Es enthält die berühmte Erörterung des deutschen Philosophen über den Ausspruch „Gott ist tot“ sowie sein Konzept des Übermenschen. Nietzsche legt seine Theorie vom Willen zur Macht dar und widmet Seiten der Kritik am christlichen Denken, insbesondere an der Definition von Gut und Böse im Christentum.

"Lagano traženje naših osnovnih težnji i razumno razvijanje naše volje,treba izbegavati čitanje nekorisnih stvari i potresni moderni život." Treba se protiviti navikama rasturenosti koje nam je dalo brzo enciklopedijsko vaspitanje, treba izbegavati čitanje nekorisnih stvari i potresni moderni život.
