Das Mittelalter, vordergründig von einer rigiden christlichen Moral geprägt, kannte die Lust an Liebe und Sinnlichkeit, ohne Reue und Gewissensbisse. Wie selbstverständlich Sexualität gelebt wurde - sowohl in der Ehe wie auch außerhalb - macht das Hörbuch ebenso anschaulich wie den uneingeschränkten Genuss anderer Lebensfreunden, des Essens und Trinkens (in den Klöstern waren zwei Liter Wein pro Tag und Person durchaus an der Tagesordnung), der Feste und des Tanzes.

History podcast discussing notorious lovers and mistresses!

Depuis des siècles, on nous dit que l'espèce humaine est naturellement monogame, que Mme Cro-Magnon, en peau de bête, avait avidement besoin pour sa survie de la protection d'un seul et unique chasseur (le plus puissant, évidemment !) en échange de sa fertilité tant convoitée et de sa fidélité éternelle. Et si Darwin s'était trompé ? Et si nos chers ancêtres préhistoriques nous révélaient enfin la vérité sur notre sexualité humaine ?

For the truly well-rounded "intellectual," nothing fascinates so much as the subversive, the contrarian, the suppressed, and the bizarre. Richard Zacks has unloosed his admittedly strange mind and astonishing research abilities upon the entire spectrum of human knowledge, ferreting out endlessly fascinating facts, and stories guaranteed to make you laugh, gasp in wonder, and occasionally shudder at the depths of human depravity. The result of his labors is this quasi-encyclopedia that provides alternative takes on art, business, crime, science, medicine, sex (lots of that), and many other facets of human experience.

The belief that Thomas Jefferson had an affair and fathered a child (or children) with slave Sally Hemings has become so pervasive in American popular culture that it is not only widely accepted but taught to students as historical fact. But as William G. Hyland Jr. demonstrates, this "fact" is nothing more than the accumulation of salacious rumors and irresponsible scholarship over the years, much of it inspired by political grudges, academic opportunism, and the trend of historical revisionism that seeks to drag the reputation of the Founding Fathers through the mud.

La guerra eterna entre lo masculino y lo femenino que marcó el origen y el devenir de la civilización, desde la revolución agrícola hasta la industrial, desde las antiguas mitologías hasta las estrategias de comunicación masiva, desde los tiempos lejanos en que la divinidad era mujer hasta la guerra de los dioses en que los hombres tomaron el poder.
