50 public speeches of the most influential personalities of the world: Jesus of Nazareth, Gandhi and Churchill, John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King… are the primary sources that at different times determined key moments in the history of mankind. For many people, these speeches became a beacon, a guide, helped to find meaning in life, but many of our contemporaries know about them only by hearsay. However, the collection of the British historian Simon Seabag Montefiore is a brilliant confirmation of not only the powerful energy and power of the right word, but also the danger of captivatingly beautiful phrases. Each performance is preceded by a detailed historical sketch, and carefully selected black and white illustrations create the effect of a documentary film. Most of the speeches are published in Russian for the first time.
