King Philip VI was the first French King of the famous House Valois, and he inherited France at the height of its power. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t remain that way for long. His fierce rivalry with King Edward of England destabilized the region, threw France into turmoil, and launched one of Europe's most infamous wars: The Hundred Years’ War. Originally born into minor nobility, Philip was never considered to one day be king. The life journey of Philip VI, the first king of House Valois, is a truly fascinating story filled with unsuspecting inheritance.

Weg und Vermächtnis einer Frau, die zur Ikone ihrer Epoche wurde. Sie hatte nie den Drang zur Selbstdarstellung einer Marilyn Monroe, nie den politischen Ehrgeiz eines John F. Kennedy – und doch steht Lady Diana Spencer in einer Reihe mit den wohl charismatischtesten Ikonen des vergangenen Jahrhunderts.

En 1898, Sissi était assassinée à Genève par un anarchiste italien. Depuis, l'impératrice d'Autriche et reine de Hongrie est devenue un mythe. Souveraine à la beauté légendaire, fantasque et solitaire, elle a inspiré peintres, poètes, psychanalystes, cinéastes. Voici la Sissi historique, cette princesse bavaroise qui, en 1854, épouse l'empereur François-Joseph. À Vienne, on la critique ; à Budapest, sous le prénom d'Erszébet, on la vénère, car elle défend le nationalisme magyar contre l'emprise autrichienne.

'Diana was the very essence of compassion, of duty, of style, of beauty. All over the world she was a symbol of selfless humanity. All over the world, a standard bearer for the rights of the truly downtrodden, a very British girl who transcended nationality. Someone with a natural nobility who...

Henrietta Maria is the most reviled consort to have worn the crown of Britain's Three Kingdoms. Condemned as that 'Popish brat of France', a 'notorious whore' and traitor, she remains in popular memory the wife who wore the breeches and turned her husband Catholic—so causing a civil war—and a cruel and bigoted mother. Leanda de Lisle's White King was hailed as 'the definitive modern biography about Charles I' (Observer). Here she considers Henrietta Maria's point of view, unpicking the myths to reveal a very different queen.

 El castillo de Eppstein, una novela escrita en el más puro estilo gótico que hacía furor en el siglo xix con sus imprescindibles dosis de secretos familiares, maquiavélicos villanos, doncellas en peligro, amores apasionados y espectros vengadores.

Y Albina, la bella esposa del malvado conde Maximiliano, no será una excepción.

Den franske prinsesse Charlotte-Amélie de la Trémoïlle (1652-1732) kommer til det danske hof, hvor hun forelsker sig i og gifter sig med grev Anton von Aldenburg, der dog dør efter få måneders ægteskab. Amelie de la Tremoïlles var en fransk prinsesse. Hun blev født ind i Frankrigs fornemste adel og voksede op i Thouars i Vestfrankrig i en familie, der var splittet af religionsstrid. Hun måtte som ganske ung forlade sit hjem på grund af Ludvig XIV‘s tiltagende forfølgelse af huguenotterne og fik asyl ved det enevældige danske hof.

In 16th-century Europe, two women came to hold all the power, against all the odds. They were Elizabeth I and Catherine de Medici. One a Virgin Queen who ruled her kingdom alone, and the other a clandestine leader who used her children to shape the dynasties of Europe, much has been written about these iconic women. But nothing has been said of their complicated relationship: 30 years of friendship, competition and conflict that changed the face of Europe.

When William the Conqueror died in 1087, he left the throne of England to William Rufus . . . his second son. The result was an immediate war as Rufus's elder brother Robert fought to gain the crown he saw as rightfully his; this conflict marked the start of 400 years of bloody disputes as the English monarchy's line of hereditary succession was bent, twisted, and finally broken when the last Plantagenet king, Richard III, fell at Bosworth in 1485.

I anledning af H.M. Dronning Margrethe II’s 80-års fødselsdag tegner kulturjournalist Elisabeth Saugmann et portræt af Danmarks dronning og hendes familie. Foruden at give en række portrætter af dronningen og hendes nære familiemedlemmer, rummer bogen også nutidsbilleder af kongeriget Danmark og monarkiet som vores sammenhængskraft. Kongefamilien er nemlig tæt vævet sammen med danskerne og vores fælles land, og i en tid, hvor kongehusene i Europa krymper og møder alvorlige udfordringer, er den danske kongefamilie populær som aldrig før.

Royal biographer Helen Cathcart's fascinatingly intimate account charts Elizabeth's extraordinary life, from her birth and early years growing up in the royal palaces—sleeping in the dungeons of Windsor Castle during the air raids of the Blitz—through to her marriage to Prince Philip in 1947, and their life together as new parents.

H.F. Ewald tegner i bogen et portræt af en af danmarkshistoriens største kvindeskikkelser. Leonora Kristina (1621-1698) var Christian den fjerdes yndlingsdatter, men hendes skæbne blev grum og dramatisk. Bogen fortæller om hendes liv fra barndommen til hendes død. Vi hører om hendes forhold til sin far og ægteskabet med den kontroversielle rigsgreve Corfitz Ulfeldt, som førte til hendes fængsling i Blåtårn som medskyldig i højforræderi.

Christian 9.’s historie er en lang og usandsynlig en af slagsen. Født som fattig prins i Tyskland var hans vej til den danske trone ikke på forhånd givet. Han tilhørte en fjern sidelinje i det danske kongehus, men da Frederik 7. døde uden at efterlade sig nogen arvinger, blev kronen tildelt Prins Christian af Glücksborg. Sammen med sin elskede dronning Louise satte Christian 9. eftertrykkelige fodspor i hele Europa ved at gifte sine seks børn ind i de toneangivende kongelige og kejserlige familier.
