Betrachtet man eine Karte der Donau, scheinen alle Fragen beantwortet zu sein: Der Fluss entspringt im Schwarzwald, passiert zehn Länder, strömt ostwärts durch die vier Hauptstädte Wien, Bratislava, Budapest und Belgrad, ehe er sich in einem riesigen, sumpfigen Delta ins Schwarze Meer ergießt. 2783 Kilometer ist die Donau lang, gemessen vom Zusammenfluss von Breg und Brigach – aber von der Quelle? Von welcher überhaupt? Da beginnen existenzielle Fragen, die – man glaubt es kaum – erst jüngst salomonisch entschieden wurden. Überhaupt ist das Abenteuer der Donau-Erkundung staunenswert.

Nach der Lektüre von Frank Witzels preisgekröntem Roman "Die Erfindung der Roten Armee Fraktion durch einen manisch-depressiven Teenager im Sommer 1969" prägte der Historiker und Kulturwissenschaftler Philipp Felsch den Begriff "BRD Noir" für die Epoche zwischen Nachkriegszeit und Wende. Im Studiogespräch spüren die beiden Autoren mit Witz und Verve der Düsternis und dem Grauen nach, die unter der glitzernden Oberfläche der sich im Aufbau befindenden BRD verborgen liegen.

The Age of Genius explores the eventful intertwining of outward event and inner intellectual life to tell, in all its richness and depth, the story of the 17th century in Europe. It was a time of creativity unparalleled in history before or since, from science to the arts, from philosophy to politics. Acclaimed philosopher and historian A. C. Grayling points to three primary factors that led to the rise of vernacular (popular) languages in philosophy, theology, science, and literature.

A meld of history and science, this book is a group portrait of some of the greatest minds who ever lived as they wrestled with natures most sweeping mysteries. The answers they uncovered still hold the key to how we understand the world.

En 1543, Nicolás Copérnico declaró que la Tierra giraba alrededor del Sol, revolucionando siglos de presunción escolástica. Se vislumbraba una nueva era, guiada por la observación, la tecnología y la lógica. Pero los presagios y los elixires no desaparecieron de manera instantánea de los laboratorios. Durante mucho tiempo, aún se podían encontrar amuletos y pociones entre relucientes instrumentos de metal y tomos encuadernados en cuero. La línea entre lo natural y lo sobrenatural seguía siendo porosa e indefinida.

The magnificent Danube both cuts across and connects Central Europe, flowing through and alongside 10 countries: Romania, Ukraine, Moldova, Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, and Germany.

Thorpe's account is personal, conversational, funny, immediate, and uniquely observant - everything one expects in the best travel writing.

Fire & Steam celebrates the vision of the ambitious Victorian pioneers who developed this revolutionary transport system and the navvies who cut through the land to enable a country-wide railway to emerge.

"We are at a turning point in human history. To stop climate breakdown and extinction, environmental movements need to be actively anti-racist and join struggles for social justice." - Carola Rackete In 2019. Carola Rackete became publicly known for docking the sea rescue vessel "Sea-Watch 3" in Italy and thereby challenging a national decree that contradicted international obligations to engage in sea rescue.

In 1799, a French Army officer was rebuilding the defenses of a fort on the banks of the Nile when he discovered an ancient stele fragment bearing a decree inscribed in three different scripts. So begins one of the most familiar tales in Egyptology - that of the Rosetta Stone and the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs. This book draws on fresh archival evidence to provide a major new account of how the English polymath Thomas Young and the French philologist Jean-François Champollion vied to be the first to solve the riddle of the Rosetta.

Pompeii was destroyed by the horrific eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE, which buried at least 2,000 unlucky people. Pompeii became a mysterious tomb, hiding secrets of Rome and other civilizations that influenced the life and culture of the city and its people. Who were the Pompeiians, and how did they live before that dreadful day? What did the last days of Pompeii look like, and did the Pompeiians know that the fate of their city would be sealed that day, not to be uncovered for centuries to come?

Age of Discovery explores a world on the brink of a new Renaissance and asks: how do we share more widely the benefits of unprecedented progress? How do we endure the inevitable tumult generated by accelerating change? How do we each thrive through this tangled, uncertain time? From gains in health, education, wealth and technology to crises of conflict, disease and mass migration, the similarities between today's world and that of the 15th century are both striking and prophetic: we have been here before.

Métronome, c'était le grand souffle de l'Histoire de France sur la capitale. Métronome 2, c'est tout le passé des Parisiens qui se déroule au fil de nos pas jusqu'à nous projeter dans notre réalité d'aujourd'hui. Tout a commencé rue Saint-Jacques. Puis, à chaque siècle, une nouvelle voie fondatrice a matérialisé le développement de la ville, s'éparpillant bientôt en un maillage de rues, carrefours et ruelles où le temps nous échappe dans un flot de souvenirs.

A quixotic journey through London's past, Mudlark plumbs the banks of the Thames to reveal the stories hidden behind the archaeological remnants of an ancient city. Long heralded as a city treasure herself, expert "mudlarker" Lara Maiklem is uniquely trained in the art of seeking. Tirelessly trekking across miles of the Thames' muddy shores, where others only see the detritus of city life, Maiklem unearths evidence of England's captivating, if sometimes murky, history - with some objects dating back to 43 AD, when London was but an outpost of the Roman Empire.

Lighthouses are striking totems of our relationship to the sea. For many, they encapsulate a romantic vision of solitary homes amongst the waves, but their original purpose is much more utilitarian than that. Still today we depend upon their guiding lights for the safe passage of ships. Nowhere is this truer than in the rock lighthouses of Great Britain and Ireland, a ring of 19 towers built between 1811-1905, so called because they were constructed on desolate rock formations in the middle of the sea, and made of granite to withstand the power of its waves.
