Story0
In post-war Europe, protest was everywhere. On both sides of the Iron Curtain, from Paris to Prague, Milan to Wroclaw, ordinary people took to the streets, fighting for a better world. Their efforts came to a head most dramatically in 1968 and 1989, when mass movements swept Europe and rewrote its history. In the decades between, Joachim C. Häberlen argues, new movements emerged that transformed the nature of protesting.

Als Michael Frank die heute hundertjährige Stella Levi zufällig kennenlernt, nimmt eine große Geschichte ihren Anfang. Sie lädt ihn in ihr New Yorker Apartment ein, und bald wird aus den Besuchen ein Ritual: An hundert Samstagen erzählt Levi dem Schriftsteller ihr Leben. Gemeinsam suchen und erkunden die beiden eine fast märchenhafte, verlorene Welt. Levi, geboren 1923, wuchs auf im jüdischen Viertel La Juderia auf der Mittelmeerinsel Rhodos - eine Kindheit und Jugend zwischen sephardischer Tradition und Moderne, inmitten einer Vielfalt von Kulturen und Sprachen zwischen Orient und Okzident.

1944: Heavy footfalls thud on the road on a rainy May night. A band of gunmen scour a hilltop farm, acting on rumors that it harbors a Jewish family. For 18 months, the Rozeneks have been hiding safely, but their luck is about to run out. Only one from the family of six will live to see the sunrise. Sixteen-year-old Hena Rozenek shelters in the woods until morning . . . and then she runs.

Story0
Since the dawn of civilization, humans had believed comets were evil portents. In 1705, Edmond Halley liberated humanity from these primordial superstitions, proving that Newtonian mechanics rather than the will of the gods brought comets into our celestial neighborhood. Despite this scientific advance, when Halley's Comet returned in 1910, newspapers gleefully provoked a global hysteria that unfolded with tragic consequences. Richard J. Goodrich examines the 1910 appearance of Halley's Comet and the ensuing frenzy sparked by media manipulation, bogus science, and outright deception.

KIEDY BARBIE WCHODZIŁ DO CELI, CZUŁAM, JAKBYM MIAŁA DO CZYNIENIA Z ROZWŚCIECZONYM ZWIERZĘCIEM, A NIE CZŁOWIEKIEM. Klaus Barbie – Rzeźnik z Lyonu. Dowódca Gestapo w Lyonie słynął z niebywałego okrucieństwa: mordów, gwałtów i tortur. Posłał do komór gazowych w Auschwitz 44 żydowskich dzieci i tysiące dorosłych, pojmał i zakatował Jeana Moulina – bohatera, organizatora tajnej armii francuskich bojowników. Po wojnie Klaus Barbie, poszukiwany przez cały świat... zniknął. Nieoczekiwany zwrot akcji nastąpił w roku 1970, gdy ktoś rozpoznał gestapowca w gazecie: nazista ukrywał się w Boliwii pod nazwiskiem Altmann.

Jews and Roma died side by side in the Holocaust, yet the world did not recognize their destruction equally. In the years and decades following the war, the Jewish experience of genocide increasingly occupied the attention of legal experts, scholars, educators, curators, and politicians, while the genocide of Europe's Roma went largely ignored. Rain of Ash is the untold story of how Roma turned to Jewish institutions, funding sources, and professional networks as they sought to gain recognition and compensation for their wartime suffering.

Spain's transition to democracy after Franco's long dictatorship was widely hailed as a success, ushering in three decades of unprecedented progress and prosperity. Yet over the past decade, its political consensus has been under severe strain. A stable two-party system has splintered, with disruptive new parties on the far left and far right. No government has had a majority since 2015. Michael Reid overturns the stereotypical view of Spain as a country haunted by its Francoist past.

How much can change in less than two and a half years? In the case of Britain in the Sixties, the answer is: almost everything. From the seismic coming of the Beatles to a sex scandal that rocked the Tory government to the arrival at No 10 of Harold Wilson, a prime minister utterly different from his Old Etonian predecessors. A Northern Wind, the keenly anticipated next instalment of David Kynaston’s acclaimed Tales of a New Jerusalem series, brings to vivid life the period between October 1962 and February 1965.

On the night of August 6, 1930, Joseph Force Crater, a newly appointed judge and prominent figure in many circles of Manhattan, hailed a taxi in the heart of Broadway and vanished into thin air. Despite a decades-long international manhunt led by the New York Police Department's esteemed Missing Persons Bureau, the reason for Crater's disappearance remains a confounding mystery.

When uprisings against colonial rule broke out across the world after 1945, Britain responded with overwhelming and brutal force. Although this period has conventionally been dubbed "postwar," it was punctuated by a succession of hard-fought, long-running conflicts that were geographically diffuse, morally ambiguous, and impervious to neat endings or declarations of victory. Age of Emergency traces facts and feelings about violence as torture, summary executions, collective punishments, and other ruthless methods were employed in "states of emergency."

Een baanbrekend, meeslepend verhaal over hoe Duitse bedrijven als BMW, Dr. Oetker, Porsche en Volkswagen zich verrijkten tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog en er na de oorlog nauwelijks sancties volgden. In 1946 werd magnaat Günther Quandt gearresteerd wegens vermeende nazi-samenwerking. Quandt, patriarch van Duitslands meest iconische industriële imperium, een dynastie die tegenwoordig bmw bestuurt, beweerde dat hij door minister van Propaganda Goebbels was gedwongen zich bij de partij aan te sluiten. De rechtbanken spraken hem vrij. Maar Quandt loog en hij was niet de enige.

As an orphaned survivor and witness to the horrors of Auschwitz, Elie Wiesel (1928-2016) compelled the world to confront the Holocaust with his searing memoir Night. How did this soft-spoken man from a small Carpathian town become such an influential figure on the world stage? Drawing on Wiesel’s prodigious literary output and interviews with his family, friends, scholars, and critics, Joseph Berger seeks to answer this question.

Il 21 aprile 1966 Gregory Bateson – antropologo e padre dell’Ecologia della Mente - tenne un discorso alla conferenza “Two Worlds Symposium", presso lo State College di Sacramento, California. Quella che ascolterete è la trascrizione integrale di quell’intervento. Era iniziata proprio allora la mobilitazione degli studenti contro la guerra del Vietnam; quegli studenti erano parzialmente consapevoli di essere nati in un mondo impazzito ma disorientati e pieni di rabbia per non essere in grado di capirne le vere origini.

¿Estuvo implicado Alfonso XIII en el golpe de Estado de 1923?, ¿se produjeron mejoras sociales y económicas? ¿Dimitió voluntariamente Primo de Rivera? (tag de abajo) Los seis años que abarca la dictadura de Miguel Primo de Rivera (1923-1930) supone uno de los periodos de la historia de España menos conocidos, quizás, porque no pocos historiadores la han calificado como un paréntesis vacío dentro de la Restauración borbónica. Hoy sabemos que, en absoluto, fue un hombre campechano sin ideología.

La 16 ani, Edith Eger a fost trimisă la Auschwitz. La câteva ore după ce părinții ei au fost gazați, ofițerul nazist dr. Josef Mengele a forțat-o pe Edie să danseze și a lăsat-o în viață ca să-l distreze. Edie a fost scoasă dintr-o grămadă de cadavre de către soldații americani care au eliberat lagărele în 1945. A petrecut decenii chinuită de flashbackuri și de vinovăția proprie, hotărâta să tacă și să se ascundă de trecut. La 35 de ani de la încheierea războiului, s-a întors la Auschwitz și a reușit în sfârșit să se ierte și să se vindece.

Assassini che infieriscono sui vinti. E ancora, autori di un racconto falsificato della storia, imposto a tutti.

Oporem mogło być wszystko, bo wszystko było zabronione. Oporem stawała się każda działalność, która stwarzała wrażenie, że więźniowi pozostało coś z dawnej osobowości i indywidualności. KL Auschwitz to bezmiar ludzkiego cierpienia, poniżenie, rozpad osobowości i heroiczne próby ocalenia własnej tożsamości. Świat odwróconego Dekalogu. Świat odwróconych ludzkich wartości. Świat bez nadziei, bez litości dla innych, świat bez Boga. Przykazaniami tego świata było: "zabijaj", "kradnij" albo też "mów fałszywe świadectwo".
