Story
Over 1,100 years before William the Conqueror became the King of England after the Battle of Hastings, Julius Caesar came, saw, and conquered part of “Britannia”, setting up a Roman province with a puppet king in 54 BCE. In the new province, the Romans eventually constructed a military outpost overlooking a bridge across the River Thames. The new outpost was named Londinium, and it covered just over two dozen acres. By the second century CE, Londinium was a large Roman city, with tens of thousands of inhabitants using villas, palaces, a forum, temples, and baths.

Story
Rome's complex relationship with animals goes right back to its foundation myth, and even today, the wolf remains a symbol of the Eternal City, forming part of the logo for the capital's football team, A.S. Roma. According to tradition, the city of Rome was founded by Romulus, who, with his brother Remus, was nursed and sheltered by a she-wolf. A detailed analysis of Roman attitudes toward animals reveals a great deal of information about Roman society in general, particularly its sense of morality and ethics.

Story
"Breve historia de Hispania" es un audiolibro que cuenta el proceso de cambio que vivieron los pueblos indígenas de la Península Ibérica con la llegada del Imperio romano. Se describen los episodios más apasionantes de la conquista romana como las guerras celtíberas, las guerras lusitanas hasta llegar a la total dominación romana. También se relata cómo esta dominación trajo consigo un proceso de aculturación lento pero permanente que dio pie a curiosos hechos como la esfuerzo por erradicar la costumbre de los lusitanos y bletonenses de realizar sacrificios humanos.

Story
Mesoamerica is a cultural area including central and southern Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, and El Salvador. In this area, Prehispanic societies developed over thousands of years before coming into contact with Spanish conquistadores in the early 16th century. Mesoamerican civilizations flourished, developing complex social, political, and economic systems-based, to a certain extent, on their knowledge of nature.

Story
Eine epische Geschichte der großen Zeit der Physik und ihrer leuchtenden Gestalten. Sie waren intellektuelle Abenteurer, Dandys oder Nerds, die tiefe Freundschaften und erbitterte Feindschaften miteinander verbanden. Die bedeutendsten Physiker und Physikerinnen des 20. Jahrhunderts haben einen ungeahnten wissenschaftlichen Schub ausgelöst, der zu einem neuen Weltbild der Physik führte, welches sich uns bis heute nicht vollständig erschließt. Doch das Zeitalter der Relativitätstheorie und der Quantenmechanik war auch das Zeitalter von Kriegen und Revolutionen.

Petra Ahne nimmt in ihrem klugen Tierportrait über Wölfe kultur- und naturgeschichtliche Fährte des bernsteinäugigen Wanderers auf und durchstreift die Motivgeschichte von Rotkäppchen bis zum Werwolf, erkundet die ambivalente Beziehung zu seinem domestizierten Nachfahren, dem Hund, und sucht nach seinen Spuren in der heutigen Lausitz, wo Mensch und Wolf zusammenleben. Vorläufig. Denn die Frage nach dem Wolf ist die immer drängendere Frage danach, wie viel Natur und Wildnis der Mensch zu ertragen bereit ist.

In seinem Portrait "Tannen" erzählt Wilhelm Bode die überraschende Kulturgeschichte der Tanne, des vermeintlich bekanntesten Baums, und zeichnet die folgenreiche Verdrängung der Tannen aus unseren Bergmischwäldern nach: In der Romantik zum Weltenbaum überhöht und von der industriellen Forstwirtschaft durch die Fichte verdrängt, ist die Tanne heute zum Hoffnungsbaum geworden, denn sie erträgt trockene Sommer in ihrem natürlichen Mehrgenerationenhaus eines Laubmischwaldes gut.

Story
Does the idea of progress still apply to our times? If so, what does progress really mean? Today, many believe that progress is a word to be avoided, a relic from a past, the dangerous product of an era of intellectual naivety that would be best forgotten. Yet, the idea of progress is rooted in a human impulse that is both profound and essential, a way of interpreting history without which our ability to plan the future, our very identity would be at stake.

Story
Much has been written about the anatomy of revolution from Edmund Burke to Crane Brinton Crane, Franz Fanon, and contemporary theorists of revolution found in the modern academy. Yet what is missing is a dissection of the revolutionary minds that destroyed the old for the creation of a more harmful new. Revolutionary Monsters presents a collective biography of five modern-day revolutionaries who came into power calling for the liberation of the people only to end up killing millions of people in the name of revolution.
