Story0
En la Italia del siglo XVII, Galileo Galilei transforma un mundo construido sobre la autoridad en otro sostenido por la evidencia. Entre aulas, cortes y observatorios improvisados, su vida recorre el arco completo del genio humano: curiosidad radical, ambición, hallazgos que cambian la idea misma de “cielo” y un conflicto inevitable con el poder.

Story0
En el siglo XVII, en una Europa desgarrada por guerras, disputas religiosas y supersticiones, Johannes Kepler convirtió una vida frágil—marcada por la enfermedad, la precariedad y pérdidas familiares—en una de las transformaciones intelectuales más profundas de la historia. Entre la fe y el método, entre la intuición de una armonía secreta y la disciplina de los datos de Tycho Brahe, Kepler desarmó el cielo “perfecto” de círculos y construyó un nuevo universo de elipses, leyes y números que todavía sostienen la astronomía moderna.

En la Inglaterra del siglo XVII, un niño frágil nacido “demasiado pequeño” se convierte, a fuerza de disciplina y obsesión, en el hombre que reescribe las reglas del cielo y de la Tierra. Este libro recorre la vida de Isaac Newton más allá del mito de la manzana: su infancia marcada por la soledad, su ascenso intelectual en Cambridge, la revolución de la luz y el color, la escritura de los Principia y las guerras de ideas que lo enfrentaron a Robert Hooke y Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz.

This biography brings Sarah Churchill's own voice, passionate and intelligent, back to life and casts a critical eye over images of the Duchess handed down through art, history and literature. Here is an unforgettable portrait of a woman who cared intensely about how we would remember her.

Captain Kidd has gone down in history as America's most ruthless buccaneer. However, Captain William Kidd was no career cut-throat; he was a tough, successful New York sea captain who was hired to chase pirates. Across the oceans of the world, the pirate hunter, Kidd, pursued the pirate, Culliford. One man would hang in the harbor; the other would walk away with the treasure. The Pirate Hunter is both a masterpiece of historical detective work and a page-turner.

January, 1649. After seven years of fighting in the bloodiest war in Britain’s history, Parliament faced a problem: what to do with a defeated king who refused to surrender? Parliamentarians resolved to do the unthinkable, to disregard the Divine Right of Kings and hold Charles I to account for the suffering and slaughter endured by his people. On a winter’s day outside Whitehall, the king of England was executed. When the king’s son, Charles II, was restored to the throne, he set about enacting a deadly wave of retribution against all those responsible for his father’s death.

In the early 17th century, a crippled, graying, almost toothless veteran of Spain's wars against the Ottoman Empire published a novel. It was the story of a poor nobleman, his brain addled from studying too many novels of chivalry, who deludes himself that he is a knight errant and sets off on hilarious adventures. That story, Don Quixote, went on to sell more copies than any other book beside the Bible, making its author, Miguel de Cervantes, the single most-read author in human history.

Saint-Simon fut souvent considéré comme l'un des plus grands écrivains de la langue française. Il fut contemporain de Louis XIV et ses Mémoires, écrites en vingt volumes, constituent un témoignage essentiel de ce que fut cette époque et nous offrent une plongée fascinante dans l'univers du Roi Soleil, le plus célèbre de tous les rois. Les pages qui suivent sont issues d'une sélection effectuée au cœur de ces mémoires dont la teneur résume, sans avoir besoin de lire l'ensemble de l'œuvre, l'atmosphère qui régnait à la Cour du Roi.
