Alessandro Barbero segue Dante nella sua adolescenza di figlio d'un usuraio che sogna di appartenere al mondo dei nobili e dei letterati; nei corridoi oscuri della politica, dove gli ideali si infrangono davanti alla realtà meschina degli odi di partito e della corruzione dilagante; nei vagabondaggi dell'esiliato che scopre l'incredibile varietà dell'Italia del Trecento, fra metropoli commerciali e corti cavalleresche.

Nel 1940, Stefan Zweig lascia l'Europa in guerra per gli Stati Uniti e poi il Brasile. Qui, nel 1941, un anno prima di uccidersi, scrive "Il mondo di ieri", un'elegia dell’Europa che è scomparsa con la Prima guerra mondiale - il composito Impero asburgico, il fermento culturale di Vienna, Berlino e Parigi - e di quella cosmopolita e in pace che si pensava in costruzione negli anni '20 ma disintegrata dal fascismo e il nazismo.

A mediados del siglo XIX, la Cataluña española experimentó una profunda transformación cuando fue empujada no en una, sino en dos épocas doradas: la Renaixença y la Revolución Industrial. Fue durante este período explosivo de creatividad, prosperidad floreciente y patriotismo vigorizado que nació un icono inconformista y fascinantemente excéntrico, uno que estaba a punto de asaltar Cataluña con su brillante ojo para el arte no ortodoxo y sus ideas legendarias -o como algunos dirían, notoriamente- descabelladas.

È l'alba del XVI secolo. L'Italia è divisa in una miriade di regni litigiosi e incapaci di opporsi alle mire delle grandi potenze. Tra quelle corti soggette ai capricci della guerra si aggira un personaggio bizzarro e affascinante, che sembra uscito dalla penna di uno scrittore. È un pittore e scultore che come nessun altro riesce a catturare l'anima di ciò che raffigura. È un inventore in grado di concepire monumenti di prodigiosa bellezza, architetture così ardite da superare ogni immaginazione, macchine belliche che sembrano provenire da un futuro lontano.

Master Italian sculptor, goldsmith, and writer Benvenuto Cellini is best remembered for his magnificent autobiography. In this work, which was actually begun in 1558 but not published until 1730, Cellini beautifully chronicles his flamboyant times. He tells of his adventures in Italy and France, and his relations with popes, kings, and fellow artists.

Halfway into the 19th century, Spain's Catalonia underwent a sweeping transformation when it was thrust into not one, but two golden eras - the Renaixença and the Industrial Revolution. It was during this explosive period of creativity, thriving prosperity, and invigorated patriotism that a steadfastly nonconforming and fascinatingly eccentric icon was born, one that was about to take Catalonia by storm with his brilliant eye for unorthodox art and his legendary - or as some would say, notoriously - out-of-the-box ideas.

Leonardo takes you inside the brain of a man who painted the most famous face on Earth, sketched helicopters in the 1400s, dissected corpses to understand beauty, and wrote in mirrored code while inventing robots no one would build for centuries.

Dutch painter and printmaker Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. As a painter, he never considered glamorizing what he saw, and he was a master of creating extraordinary scenes with light and shadows. His paintings were unique for their ability to depict action and moods. Sadly, having a mistress and spending recklessly went far to ruin his reputation during his lifetime. Rembrandt died penniless and was buried in a pauper’s grave.
