Michael Parenti - The Nature of Empire [Reupload]
from History of Philosophy Audio Archive · host William Engels
Ladies and Gentlemen, comrades and compadres, narcs and Feds I proudly present: the only Michael Parenti lecture in existence with good quality audio. The gentlemen requires no introduction, but the book on imperialism in the Roman Republic he mentioned in the "E. Badian" quote is none other than Roman Imperialism in the Late Republic, which was less than simple to find. Repuloaded to fix some minor audio bugs/content. The original video can be found here, my thanks to AfroMarxist on YouTube for making this presentation available. As always these talks are syndicated for educational and nonprofit purposes in accordance with Fair Use. They are produced ad-free, because I listen to my own stuff on here and like you, I hate ads. These recordings have been remastered for clarity, ease of listening, and concision and have been downmixed to mono so that they are lighter and easier to stream, wherever you are. Furthermore my historical and philosophical writing, which is also entirely free is available at my blog, Hemlock, on Substack. The music of the intro and outro (Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major) is licensed under non-commercial attribution, and can be found here and has been remixed by me. Enjoy.
