Story2
The French Revolution is a time of history made familiar from Dickens, Baroness Orczy, and Tolstoy, as well as the legends of let them eat cake, and tricolors. Beginning in 1789, this period of extreme political and social unrest saw the end of the French monarchy, the death of an extraordinary number of people beneath the guillotine's blade during the Terror, and the rise of Napoleon, as well as far reaching consequences still with us today, such as the enduring ideology of human rights, and decimalization.

Story27
Virtually all human societies were once organized tribally, yet over time most developed new political institutions which included a central state that could keep the peace and uniform laws that applied to all citizens. Some went on to create governments that were accountable to their constituents. We take these institutions for granted, but they are absent or are unable to perform in many of today’s developing countries—with often disastrous consequences for the rest of the world.

De l'invasion de la Pologne aux derniers jours du IIIe Reich, le second volume de cette biographie unanimement saluée par la critique. Peter Longerich éclaire en particulier la mise en œuvre de la solution finale, dont Himmler fut le principal instigateur, ainsi que le pouvoir tentaculaire du premier des SS, favorisé par la radicalisation du conflit et la paranoïa d'Hitler à partir de l'attentat manqué de Stauffenberg. Une plongée sans précédent dans les ténèbres du nazisme.

Story0
La dernière joie de Jean de Lattre de Tassigny fut d'apprendre, à la veille de sa mort le 11 janvier 1952, qu'il était élevé, et lui seul, à la dignité de maréchal de France. Maréchal, le " roi Jean ", comme on l'appelait par admiration mêlée parfois d'agacement, l'était de toute origine. Saint-Cyrien de la promotion précédant celle de Charles de Gaulle, De Lattre est de tous les combats de la première moitié du XXe siècle. Du Maroc de Lyautey au 6 février 1934, de Vichy à la capitulation de l'Allemagne le 8 mai 1945 puis à la guerre d'Indochine, il se signale par son courage, son dynamisme et son génie de la mise en scène.

The 25 years between the onset of the French Revolution in 1789 and the Bourbon Restoration after Napoleon in 1814 is an astonishing period in world history. This era shook the foundations of the old world and marked a permanent shift for politics, religion, and society - not just for France, but for all of Europe. An account of the events alone reads like something out of a thrilling novel.

The French painter Jean Hélion’s unique and deeply moving account of his experiences in Nazi prisoner-of-war camps prefigures the even darker stories that would emerge from the concentration camps. This serious adventure tale begins with Hélion’s infantry platoon fleeing from the German army and warplanes as they advanced through France in the early days of the war. The soldiers chant as they march and run, “They shall not have me!” but are quickly captured and sent to hard labor.
