wonderful performance, Foon.

Wallenstein in all his sternness, cunningness and passion. And you got to say the famous sentence "Therein I recognize my Pappenheimers." The original German sentence has become a famous saying in Germany since then.

There's only one missed sentence which needs to be added:

thanks !

all 4 sections now PL ok. Yes the section about Poland made me think that even into the 20th century, it still was unlucky in politics and its independence threatened.

So this was an ongoing problem for that country.

All sections beautifully read, thanks

oh yes, this Russian campaign was a major disaster for Napoleon (or rather, for his troops). It seems we encounter Napoleon in every book now.

I guess he is interwoven in all of European history at that time.

A wonderfully sensitive reading of Pushkin, Nemo.

Absolutely PL ok. Thank you so much.

Kristine

wonderfully narrated, all 4 of them. And very interesting, especially because I visited both St Petersburg and Istanbul on my travels already and I liked both cities.

I'm happy that you enjoyed these short snippets too.

Textually, no errors at all

, I'd only like to point out that you are exceeding the end silence a little bit each time. I'm not too picky to the second, so I will mark Sections 18, 86 and 87 PL ok already.

For Section 19, your end silence exceeds 8 seconds though, which is a bit long. Could you please trim that down to our standard 5 and reupload ? All the rest is fine. Thanks !
