Today, the world is in the midst of the transformative and ever-developing digital age, otherwise referred to as the “age of Information.” It has been an unprecedented, remarkable, and explosive era marked by social media and computer-generated imagery (and with it, deep fakes), among other novel, previously unimaginable concepts.

Halfway into the 19th century, Spain's Catalonia underwent a sweeping transformation when it was thrust into not one, but two golden eras–the Renaixença, and the Industrial Revolution. It was during this explosive period of creativity, thriving prosperity, and invigorated patriotism that a steadfastly nonconforming and fascinatingly eccentric icon was born, one that was about to take Catalonia by storm with his brilliant eye for unorthodox art and his legendary–or as some would say, notoriously–out-of-the-box ideas.

1930s Europe - as the Roaring Twenties wind down and the world rumbles towards war, the great minds of the time have other concerns. Jean-Paul Sartre waits anxiously in a Parisian café for his first date with no-show Simone de Beauvoir. Marlene Dietrich slips from her loveless marriage into the dive bars of Berlin. Father and son Thomas and Klaus Mann clash over each other's homosexuality. And Vladimir Nabokov lovingly places a fresh-caught butterfly at the end of Verá's bed. Little do they all know, the book burning will soon begin.

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.

Eine spannende gelbe und historische Recherche über das kurze Leben von Robert Johnson, der von den meisten als der Großvater des Rock angesehen wird, aber von Blues-Fans geliebt wird. Eine fesselnde Erzählung und vielleicht die Lösung eines dunklen Knäuels voller Esoterik und religiösem Fanatismus, das zum gewaltsamen und vorzeitigen Tod desjenigen führte, der als Sohn des Teufels gebrandmarkt wurde.

"My good friends," the mustached, bony man with thick eyebrows and large, strong teeth somewhat reminiscent of those of a horse, shouted to the crowds from the second-floor window of his house at 10 Downing Street, "this is the second time in our history, that there has come back to Downing Street from Germany peace with honor. I believe it is peace for our time." (McDonough, 1998, 70).

Alfred Hitchcock’s work is legendary, and although he himself was known as a rather quiet and subdued figure in public, those who knew him privately saw a fiery disposition and unbridled passion lurking just beneath the surface of his placid exterior. Films such as Rebecca, Vertigo, Psycho, and The Birds sky-rocketed him to fame, and have since led many to hail him as the greatest director of all time.

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.

La Resistenza in montagna e quella in pianura. La guerriglia nelle città. Il sostegno della popolazione e il rapporto con la 'zona grigia'. La collaborazione con gli Alleati e la guerra civile con gli italiani in camicia nera. A 75 anni dalla Liberazione, finalmente una ricostruzione con l'ambizione di proporre uno sguardo complessivo su fatti, momenti e protagonisti che hanno cambiato per sempre il nostro Paese.

Irresponsabili che con le loro azioni scatenano le rappresaglie naziste e fasciste che si abbattono sulla popolazione inerme. Esaltati che combattono per imporre una dittatura comunista in Italia. Assassini che infieriscono sui vinti. E ancora, autori di un racconto falsificato della storia, imposto a tutti. Questi giudizi sui partigiani oggi sono parte integrante di un senso comune diffuso, popolato di frasi fatte.

Longstanding political columnist and commentator Daniel Finkelstein's powerful memoir explores both his mother and his father’s devastating experiences of persecution, resistance and survival during the Second World War.

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".

Peter Wensierski erzählt von einer Generation Jugendlicher auf der Suche nach einem freien, selbstbestimmten Leben. Freitag, 10. April 1981: In Jena steigt der 23-jährige Matthias Domaschk in den Schnellzug nach Berlin. Er will zu einer Geburtstagsfeier. Doch er kommt nie an, denn der vollbesetzte Zug wird in Jüterbog gestoppt, Matthias und drei weitere Jenaer festgesetzt. Zwei Tage später ist er tot, nach einem Verhör in der Stasi-Untersuchungshaftanstalt Gera.

Father Patrick Desbois documents the daunting task of identifying and examining all the sites where Jews were exterminated by Nazi mobile units in the Ukraine in WWII. Using innovative methodology, interviews, and ballistic evidence, he has determined the location of many mass gravesites with the goal of providing proper burials for the victims of the forgotten Ukrainian Holocaust. Compiling new archival material and many eye-witness accounts, Desbois has put together the first definitive account of one of World War II's bloodiest chapters.

1st Lieutenant Robin Bartlett suddenly found himself at the "repo-depo" in Bien Hoa reassigned to the 1st Cavalry Division. The unit had more helicopter support than any other unit in Vietnam. Immediate support from artillery, helicopter gunships, and ARA was only minutes away to support a firefight. Wounded troops could be medevaced even in dense jungle using "jungle penetrators." It also meant that Bartlett's platoon could deploy through helicopter combat assaults into hot LZs (landing zones) at a moment's notice if an enemy force had been spotted. And they did.

One hot, humid day in July 1944, the Gestapo abducted 15-year-old Henry and his mother, forcing them onto cramped cattle cars in the Łódź Polish Ghetto. Like so many Jews before them, they had been selected to disappear–they were being sent to Auschwitz.

Dieuwertje Blok debuteert met een ontroerende ontdekkingstocht door het oorlogsverleden en -dagboek van haar Joodse moeder. 'Henny Gazan, mijn moeder, was zeventien toen de oorlog uitbrak en zat tweeënhalf jaar ondergedoken. Tweeënhalf jaar kon ze niet naar buiten en moest ze zich zelfs af en toe een avond in een kast verstoppen. Ook mijn grootouders doken onder en overleefden zo de oorlog. De rest van mijn familie van moederskant heb ik nooit gekend, ze zijn vrijwel allemaal vermoord. Mijn moeder wist daardoor als geen ander wat vrijheid betekende.

Articolato in quindici capitoli, il manuale tratta del periodo che va dal 1914 a oggi. Azioni e mentalità di uomini e di donne sono proiettate nel tessuto della grande storia quali oggetti d'analisi di straordinaria capacità espressiva; i mezzi di comunicazione, i consumi e la pubblicità, le arti, gli stili di vita, lo sport, il linguaggio, la scienza - ma anche temi dalle forti implicazioni simboliche e politiche, come le identità sessuali o le discriminazioni razziali - tematizzano criticamente l'analisi degli eventi.
