Lernen ist Wissen, Wissen ist Macht. In Geschichtsbüchern und in den Schulen wird so wenig über die jüngste Vergangenheit berichtet. Vom Kuckucksruf und den Sirenen der Luftangriffe, von der Besetzung Wiens spannt sich der bewegende Bogen der vielen spannenden Tondokumente der österreichischen Nachkriegsgeschichte über den Staatsvertrag 1955, den Ungarnaufstand und das Treffen Kennedy-Chrustschow in Wien bis zu Bruno Kreisky.

One of the most powerful men who ever lived was a Holy Roman Emperor and controlled vast swathes of the planet. Quite a bit has been written over the centuries about Charles V, but even so, historical texts do not always reveal the complex personality that this man possessed. He was a man of purpose who felt destined to hold both Europe and the Christian faith together. He knew this would be no easy task, but he nevertheless threw himself into it whole-heartedly. This is the life and the story of Charles V of the Holy Roman Empire.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is a figure that is cemented in the annals of history as one of the greatest composers of all time. A fascinating and enigmatic character, Mozart was hailed in his own lifetime as a child prodigy and a musical genius.

Despite his preternatural talents, the artist struggled significantly throughout his life, and he died in his prime.

Il ramo austriaco degli Asburgo (che detenevano il potere imperiale anche in Spagna e in molte altre regioni d'Europa) governò l'Austria, la Boemia e l'Ungheria per tutto il XVII secolo, non senza conflitti e guerre religiose, anche importanti, per la supremazia nei territori tedeschi, come la sanguinosa Guerra dei Trent'anni (1618-1648). L'audiolibro, oltre a raccontare la storia di questa guerra, la crisi del germanesimo e le vicende della dinastia cattolica, descrive la vita di corte nel secolo del Barocco e la rinascita della capitale Vienna.
