Story
In 1854, a quarter of a million British soldiers headed east to fight in the Crimean War. Together with their French and Turkish allies, the goal was to free the important port city of Sevastopol from the clutches of Russia, thus keeping them from the seizing control of the Red Sea and thence Mediterranean. This they did, but not without considerable hardship, suffering and loss of life - over 21,000 British men fell to enemy fire, accidents and disease.

Story
In De Tirana Express reist hij met tussenstops met de trein naar Albanië en logeert hij op bijzondere plekken en in hotels waar de geschiedenis vanaf druipt. Hij komt soms in een wereld terecht die op zijn laatste benen loopt, waar vastgehouden wordt aan oude gewoontes, regels en wetten. Hier ging hij voor het eerst naar een restaurant, proefde hij tomaten uit de vollegrond en at hij eindelijk iets anders dan aardappelen, groente en vlees.

Jak vypadala krajina 13. století? A kdo byli její obyvatelé? Kolika let se dožívali, na jaké nemoci trpěli? Jak spolu vycházeli čeští a němečtí kolonisté? Poznáme významné stavby na našem území a budeme sledovat počátky gotiky, zakládání měst a jejich rozkvět. Byli naši předci tak nároční na bydlení a odívání, jako jsme my? Co znamenaly chrámy pro tehdejší lidi a jaká byla jejich spiritualita? Jako úlohu přičítali vzdělání, jak se bavili a jak milovali? Na tyto i další otázky odpovídá historik Vlastimil Vondruška.

Story
Co víme o 12. století? Třeba to, že se v Evropě začal pomocí destilace vyrábět alkohol, byla pravděpodobně sepsána Kosmova kronika česká, byly založeny řády Templářů a Premonstrátů, vznikl gotický sloh, byl vynalezen střelný prach a také proběhla první doložená chřipková epidemie. Jak se ale obecně žilo lidem ve 12. století? To popisuje první část cyklu Život ve staletích. I když dílo vychází z dostupných historických pramenů a odráží současný stav poznání, nejde o učebnici.

Słynie jako miasto mostów. Zachwyca architekturą. Uwodzi i obiecuje moc ekscytujących wrażeń. Wrocław od lat niczym niepokojąco piękna kobieta urzeka i skrywa sekrety... Tamara Barriga z pasją i odwagą wnika w nieodkryte dotąd tajemnice Wrocławia. Zdradza, dlaczego w Mrówkowcu mieszka się luksusowo i… nieznośnie. Opowiada o ludziach, którzy wyróżniali się mądrością, pracowitością, a w końcu zapisali się w historii miasta i nie tylko: profesor Alzheimer, Otfrid Foerster – lekarz Lenina, Sir Gutmann – ojciec igrzysk paraolimpijskich czy profesor Tołpa – wierzący w leczniczą moc torfu.

Story
Żadne inne duże polskie miasto nie ma tylu tajemniczych i niezwykłych historii co Szczecin. Dlaczego? Bo nigdzie indziej losy nie potoczyły się w tak skomplikowany sposób. W ciągu wieków miastem władali na przemian Niemcy, Polacy, Francuzi i Szwedzi. W czasie II wojny światowej największe zniszczenia spowodowali w nim nie Rosjanie, lecz... Anglicy. Wiele razy w oficjalnej historii Szczecina próbowano przemilczać niewygodne fakty lub wymyślać nieprawdziwe propagandowe hasła. Tymczasem na przełomie XIX i XX wieku było to jedno z najważniejszych miast Europy.

A było ich naprawdę wielu – lgnęli do niej z całej Europy niczym opiłki do magnesu, przyciągani jej wrażliwością, odwagą i buntowniczym charakterem. Bo tylko tchórze i mięczaki boją się Krystyny Mazurówny! Dla tych, którzy mają charakter, jest jasne, że spotkanie z nią to wyzwanie i rozkosz dla inteligencji.

La historia de Europa Oriental es una historia de éxitos y fracasos, de intereses contrapuestos, y de ascenso y caída de estados e imperios. Los antiguos imperios griego y romano conocían la importancia de Europa del Este para el comercio y los asentamientos. Más tarde, durante el período Migratorio, también conocido como las «invasiones bárbaras», Europa del Este se convirtió en el terreno de juego de muchos grupos humanos. Los visigodos, los hunos, los eslavos y las tribus turcas de Asia central, como los ávaros y los jázaros, se abrieron paso en Europa Oriental.
