Todos los franceses conocen al Charles de Gaulle militar, al político, al hombre de Estado, y todos recuerdan su guasa, su ingenio, su sentido del humor y su habilidad para la réplica aguda. Y, por supuesto, su causticidad inimitable. Todos los que lo rodeaban fueron sus víctimas, al igual que ese partido político del que él declaraba: «No puedo decir que los deteste. Se puede detestar a Hitler o a Stalin. No se puede detestar la nada». Cada una de sus agudezas daba en el blanco, cualquiera que fuera el objetivo; pero el humor, feroz a más no poder, nunca era verdaderamente gratuito.

Before we knew anything else, we had to decide what mattered. This is the story of that decision. History 101 is a time-bending, mind-bending deep dive into the very idea of history itself — how it started, who told it, what got erased, and why it still shapes everything we believe about ourselves. From firelight myths to Mesopotamian propaganda, medieval scribes to Enlightenment idealists, textbook wars to TikTok historians, this book tracks the strange evolution of how humans record the past — and how those records reflect the present more than we like to admit.

A sweeping exploration of the ways in which emotions shaped the course of human history, and how our experience and understanding of emotions have evolved along with us. We humans like to think of ourselves as rational creatures, who, as a species, have relied on calculation and intellect to...

The mysterious civilizations of Lemuria and Atlantis become reality as Shirley Andrews, the author of Atlantis: Insights From a Lost Civilization combines details from scholars, scientists and the respected psychic Edgar Cayce.

In this epic narrative, Frederic Raphael explores the most significant moments, ideas and figures that have shaped the world’s stage. He takes us on a journey through history: from the reigns of Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great, to Plato and Socrates and the origins of philosophy, the turning point of World War Two and the invention of the atom bomb, and, finally, the social and cultural divisions of modern day. It is often a story of conflict: the rise of anti-Semitism, the tensions between science and faith, progress and strife, comedy and ruthlessness.

Paleophilosophy: The Dawn of Thought is a book that restores to us the forgotten dignity of ancient humanity. It makes a simple and radical claim: philosophy is older than cities, temples, and alphabets; it begins not with libraries, but with silence around the fire, with palms pressed against stone, with the rhythm of the dance, with the care given to the dead, and with dreams in which humankind first encountered the “other.

Out of Time is the untold story of calendars, clocks, and the human obsession with taming chaos. From ancient moon cycles to atomic vibrations, James Johnson traces how we invented time, tried to perfect it, and accidentally built a system that now runs our lives — whether we like it or not.

Sono queste le Sette Meraviglie del mondo antico. Già indicate come tali diversi secoli prima della nascita di Cristo, furono contemporaneamente visibili solo nel periodo fra il 300 e il 227 a.C.; successivamente andarono distrutte a una a una per cause diverse, salvo la Piramide di Cheope. Al canone classico Valerio Massimo Manfredi aggiunge la favolosa ipotesi di un'ottava meraviglia e, con la sua scrittura rapinosa, fa rivivere per noi la grandiosità del passato in pagine fitte di racconti avvincenti e favolosi, riportando alla luce opere leggendarie, ormai perdute nella notte del tempo.

De sidste 50 år har budt på sande gennembrud i kortlægningen og forståelsen af Skandinavien i vikingetiden. Arkæologer og historikere har analyseret alt fra gamle stolpehuller til tusind år gamle vindruekerner i arbejdet med at finde frem til sandheden om vikingernes verden. Møjsommeligt og nidkært arbejde er strengt nødvendigt, fordi vikingerne ikke selv nedskrev datidens begivenheder. Historien kendes kun fra munkenes overdrevne rædselsberetninger og sagaernes heltekvad.

Over the span of a single decade, VHS technology changed the relationship between privacy and entertainment, pried open the closed societies behind the Iron Curtain, and then sank back into oblivion. In the West, its advent deepened the trends of the age: individualism, consumerism, the fragmentation of society, and the consolidation of corporate power in the entertainment industry and its victory over the regulatory powers of the state.

La historia de la Atlántida ha sido objeto de debate en todo el mundo durante milenios. Pero, ¿cuánto hay de verdad? ¿Cuánto hay de ficción? ¿Cuánto es algo más, filtrado a través de la lente oscurecedora del tiempo?
