Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, and Nero - these are the names history associates with the early Roman Empire. Yet, not a single one of these emperors was the blood son of his predecessor. In this captivating history, a prominent scholar of the era documents the Julio-Claudian women whose bloodline, ambition, and ruthlessness made it possible for the emperors' line to continue. Eminent scholar Guy de la Bedoyere, author of Praetorian, asserts that the women behind the scenes - including Livia, Octavia, and the elder and younger Agrippina - were the true backbone of the dynasty.

Story0
Herodotus was the world’s first known performance artists. He didn’t write his Histories to be read but to be told. He sat in agoras throughout the Hellenic world and enacted his stories for drachmas. He explained that the conflict between the East and West all started because of the rape and kidnap of Io, Europa, and Medea. You can throw in Helen if you wish but on this point Herodotus dissed Homer. According to the Father of Western History, Helen was never in Troy!

Story0
The kidnap and rape of Io, Europa, and Medea started the conflict between the East and the West. You can throw in Helen if you wish, but Herodotus (484-425 B.C.) dissed Homer on this point. Helen was never in Troy! And Philippides did not run the first Marathon to Athens, announce the victory over the Persians, and die! No.“Herein lies my research as to why the Hellenes and the barbarians, the West and the East, made war on each other,” Herodotus stated. A war we are still fighting today. BECAUSE OF THE WOMEN is a transliteration of Herodotus’s HISTORIES.

Story0
This first comprehensive work on women in pre-Columbian cultures describes gender roles and relationships in the Americas from 12,000 B.C. to the A.D. 1500s. Utilizing many key archaeological works, Karen Olsen Bruhns and Karen E. Stothert redress some of the long-standing male bias in writing about ancient Native American lifeways. The authors pay particular attention to the problems of interpreting archaeological remains and the uses of historic and ethnographic evidence in reconstructing the past.

Story0
Cuando se publicó por primera vez en 1970, La mujer eunuco supuso un punto de inflexión en la defensa de los derechos de la mujer. La tesis sobre la que se sustenta es que la familia nuclear, consumista y urbana reprime a la mujer sexualmente y esta acaba por desvitalizarse y convertirse en eunuco. Por esta razón, advierte Greer, la auténtica liberación pasa por una liberación sexual. Casi cinco décadas más tarde, La mujer eunuco se ha convertido en un importante documento histórico y pone en relevancia todo el trabajo que queda por hacer.
