In this seventh volume, a detailed examination is made of the period from August 1813 to Aril 1814, the end of the war. This history, written many years after Napier's, draws its information from more firsthand accounts and corrects some of the more glaring mistakes and biases of Napier. Although this audiobook is slightly abridged, the only text removed is a small number of footnotes written entirely in French. All English text from the appendices and footnotes is present.

La gente solía decir que «el sol nunca se pone en el Imperio británico» como forma de declarar la grandeza de Gran Bretaña. Pero fueron los portugueses quienes forjaron el primer imperio verdaderamente global. Los principales dominios de los portugueses envolvían el globo en línea recta, desde Brasil hasta Angola, desde Mozambique a la India y hasta Macao. Con sus dominios bajo múltiples husos horarios, el sol, de hecho, nunca se puso sobre el Imperio portugués.

La Primera República, 1873-1874, que acabó con el pronunciamiento de Martínez Campos y la restauración borbónica, y la Segunda República, de abril de 1931 hasta el inicio de la dictadura franquista, son dos épocas históricas vinculadas entre sí que guardan muchas de las claves para entender e interpretar nuestro presente ya que fundamentos ideológicos de la política actual tienen muchas de sus raíces en aquellos sucesos que marcaron definitivamente unos profundos cambios sociales.

By the time Christopher Columbus started setting east from the New World, he had explored San Salvador in the Bahamas (which he thought was Japan), Cuba (which he thought was China), and Hispaniola, the source of gold. As the common story goes, Columbus, en route back to Spain from his first journey, called in at Lisbon as a courtesy to brief the Portuguese King John II of his discovery of the New World.

¿Por qué la monarquía española es católica si nuestro estado es aconfesional? ¿Cuál es el origen del símbolo del dólar estadounidense y por qué está ligado al escudo español? ¿Por qué los colores de la bandera de Argentina coinciden con los de la Inmaculada Concepción? ¿Por qué la bandera tricolor sólo fue oficial durante la Segunda República y no durante la Primera? ¿Por qué el negro es el color del luto? ¿Qué significa el color verde para los monárquicos?

When Columbus triumphantly returned from America to Spain in 1493, his discoveries inflamed an already smoldering conflict between Spain's renowned monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella, and Portugal's João II. Which nation was to control the world's oceans? To quell the argument, Pope Alexander VI issued a proclamation laying the foundation for the Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494, an edict that created an imaginary line in the Atlantic Ocean dividing the entire known (and unknown) world between Spain and Portugal.

This is volume 3 of 27 in The American Nation: A History, edited by Albert Bushnell Hart, Professor of History at Harvard University. This volume begins with the detailed narrative of the founding and development of the communities now included within the United States of America, and the story necessarily goes back to the discovery of the American islands and continents. Professor Bourne in his earlier chapters summarizes and restates, with many original conclusions, the controverted points with regard to the discovery of America.

Many of the traits on which modern Europe prides itself came to it from Muslim Spain. Diplomacy, free trade, open borders, the techniques of academic research, of anthropology, etiquette, fashion, various types of medicine and hospitals, all came from the great city of cities: Cordoba. The age that paved the way for the European renaissance was known as the Islamic Golden Age and a renaissance took place under the influence of the Arabs and Moorish revival of culture. Re-visiting the Islamic Golden Age is crucial to understanding the nature of a renaissance.

Perhaps you have heard of the horrible stories of the Spanish, Portuguese, or French inquisition, the Catholic body of persecutors who would arrest the supposed “heathens” and accuse them of witchcraft, heresies, blasphemy, adultery, and a whole list of other sins or crimes. Torture, interrogations, executions, burnings, and other inhumane methods were used to then force, coerce, or kill the victims of this Catholic organization within the church at the time.

From jointed, wood-carved figures of Christ, saintly marionettes that performed hagiographical dramas, experimental puppets and automata in Cervantes' Don Quixote, and the mechanical sets around which playwright Calderón de la Barca devised secular magic shows to deconstruct superstitions, these historical and fictional artifacts reenvisioned religious, artistic, and social notions that led early modern society to critically wrestle with enchantment and disenchantment.

On Thursday, August 28, 1947, a 30-year-old millionaire named Manuel Laureano Rodriguez—Manolete—and a Miura bull named Islero killed each other. The Death of Manolete recounts the extraordinary life and demise of this young bullfighter, from the childhood that made the Spanish boy and the sacrifice that made the man to the girl who brought him love and the acclaim that brought him incredible success.

¿Qué puede unir a una «hija de revolucionarios» y a un rey? Tras pasar su adolescencia en España, Laurence Debray se interesó, como historiadora, por la figura de Juan Carlos I. Escribió su biografía y después lo entrevistó en las vísperas de su abdicación. Desde entonces, no ha dejado de hablar con él y de seguir los giros de guion de su destino. El relato de esta atópica relación que nos brinda Laurence Debray fascina por su virtuosismo, inteligencia, y lucidez cuando pasado y presente chocan. Estamos ante la verdadera novela de la vida de Juan Carlos, Rey de España.

Have you ever wondered what country had the first truly global empire? Then pay attention... Folks used to say that the “Sun never sets on the British Empire” as a means of declaring Britain’s greatness. But it was the Portuguese who forged the first truly global empire. The major dominions of the Portuguese wrapped around the globe in a straight line, from Brazil to Angola, from Mozambique to India, and all the way to Macau. With its dominion under multiple time zones, the Sun, in fact, never did set on the Portuguese Empire.

Este conjunto de estudios históricos, realizado por el hispanista sueco Sverker Arnoldsson, está considerado entre las primeras y más rigurosas investigaciones sobre las fuentes que establecieron la Leyenda Negra española. Dichos orígenes se situaron en las tensiones surgidas por el dominio de la monarquía hispánica en la península itálica, con especial protagonismo de la competencia comercial en el Mediterráneo entre aragoneses y catalanes y las distintas ciudades-estado italianas.

Este breve manual de Historia pretende acercar al lector al estudio del establecimiento del Estado liberal en España, y su desenvolvimiento durante el siglo XIX, para luego entrar en el problema fundamental que se plantearía en el nuevo siglo en relación con la transformación de ese Estado liberal en uno democrático. Precisamente, el fracaso en este proceso, debido a un conjunto de factores, conducirá a la gran tragedia española de la Guerra Civil.

A History of Water follows the interconnected lives of two men across the Renaissance globe. One of them—an aficionado of mermen and Ethiopian culture, an art collector, historian and expert on water-music—returns home from witnessing the birth of the modern age to die in a mysterious incident, apparently the victim of a grisly and curious murder. The other—a ruffian, vagabond and braggart, chased across the globe from Mozambique to Japan—ends up as the national poet of Portugal.

Portugal has a rich history that dates to prehistoric times. The first settlers left amazing art behind in the form of rock carvings and rock monoliths. Even though Portugal is probably best known for exploring the world during the Age of Discovery, the history of mainland Portugal is rarely described outside of the country. The purpose of this audiobook is to familiarize English speakers with the events and personas that built the Portuguese kingdom, its overseas empire, and the state that Portugal is today.
