Intentaron quitarle todo cuanto era suyo. Crearon la leyenda de su locura. Y la encerraron durante cuarenta y seis años. Esta es su verdadera historia. Juana de Castilla fue la reina con peor suerte de nuestra historia. Pudo ser la soberana más poderosa de su tiempo: reina de Castilla, León, Granada, Aragón, Navarra, Sicilia y las tierras de ultramar. Pero fue traicionada por todos los hombres de su vida: por su padre, el rey Fernando el Católico; por su marido, el archiduque Felipe el Hermoso, y por su hijo, el emperador Carlos.

King Alfred of Wessex is the only king in British history to have been honoured with the epithet of "Great", yet he is usually remembered for the story of the burnt cakes, his finer achievements are often forgotten. Afflicted by poor health for most of his life, Alfred nevertheless showed unflagging energy as a warrior, administrator, scholar and educator. He was remarkable for both his range of interests and his wisdom. In battle he was faced by the Danish invaders and the real threat of Viking supremacy in England.

¿Cómo Juan Carlos I, un rey con una fuerza icónica única en Europa, con un país a sus pies, con ciertos políticos cómplices, con dinero y con las mujeres más guapas del mundo, pudo jugárselo todo?

Il regno dell'imperatore Shōwa, o Hirohito, fu il più longevo nella storia giapponese, sebbene anche il più controverso. Hirohito è stato in grado di guidare la sua patria nel periodo più critico, buio e rivoluzionario di sempre, quello che va dal 1926 al 1989. Le bombe atomiche su Hiroshima e Nagasaki, l'attacco a Pearl Harbor, l'inevitabile resa del Giappone: tutto contribuisce a forgiare l'immagine di un uomo integro ma al contempo fragile e discusso, schiacciato da un ruolo che non è più in grado di incarnare ma che non abbandonerà mai fino alla sua morte.

Le destin historique d'un grand homme se dessine-t-il dès l'enfance ? Sabine Melchior-Bonnet montre dans ce livre audio que derrière tout héros, qu'il soit grandiose ou maudit, il y a... une mère. C'est dans les relations entre mère et fils que se joue aussi l'Histoire.

C'est à la restitution de ces biographies historiques sous l'angle inédit des relations entre mère et fils que s'attache ici l'auteur.

For decades Prince Philip shared the Queen’s burden of office without upstaging her, always privately providing reassurance and advice but never overstepping the boundaries of his supporting role. It was an unforgiving position - a challenge for anyone - but one that he met head on. He remained the Queen’s adviser and closest confidant and was known as such the world over. That said, he was wise enough to recognise his limitations and the constraints of his role.

For millions of people, both in Britain and across the world, Elizabeth II is the embodiment of monarchy. Her long life spans nearly a century of national and global history, from a time before the Great Depression to the era of COVID-19.

The vast majority of Britons cannot remember a world without Elizabeth II as head of state and the Commonwealth.
