Frankfurt 1838: Als Kaufmannstochter und Ehefrau des Teehändlers Tobias Ronnefeldt genießt Friederike es sehr, ab und an hinter der Theke ihres Geschäfts zu stehen - sie liebt den blumigen, leicht erdigen Duft der dunklen Teeblätter. Doch tiefere Einblicke in den Handel bleiben ihr verwehrt.

Broadcaster Richard Fidler and author Kári Gíslason are good friends. They share a deep attachment to the sagas of Iceland—the true stories of the first Viking families who settled on that remote island in the Middle Ages. These are tales of blood feuds, of dangerous women and people who are compelled to kill the ones they love the most. The sagas are among the greatest stories ever written, but the identity of their authors is largely unknown. Together, Fidler and Gíslason travel across Iceland, to the places where the sagas unfolded a thousand years ago.

"Atenție, nelegiuiții pe două roți nu mai sunt la porțile orașului! Sunt chiar printre noi!"

Mituri, exagerări sau adevăruri îngrozitoare? Prejudecăți sau fapte dovedite? Ziariștii îi adorau pentru că le ofereau subiecte de scandal, iar publicul era fascinat de aerul lor amenințător și, într-un fel, misterios de răzvrătiți și antieroi neînțeleși.

What do Vikings know about raising children? Turns out, quite a lot... After a decade of living in Denmark and raising a family there, Helen Russell noticed that Nordic children are different. They eat differently. They learn differently. They run, jump and climb out in nature for hours a day, even though the weather is terrible and it's dark October to March.

Con "El legado de los monstruos" Ignacio Padilla quiere pensar el poder de los miedos para proyectarse en imágenes. Analiza entonces los artefactos y maquinarias que caracterizan a esa producción de los temores en la mitología, la ficción literaria y otras representaciones sociales. De ahí surge la idea de un "mercado pánico" como lugar de cruce en una economía del miedo ("recurso escandalosamente renovable"). Y se plantean las preguntas: ¿Por qué desde hace milenios consumimos tantos espantos reelaborados? ¿Qué motivaciones traen a nuestras vidas?
