In September 2022, twenty-two-year-old Kurdish-Iranian woman Mahsa Jina Amini is killed by Iran’s morality police in Tehran for allegedly wearing her hijab too loosely. Outrage triggers nationwide protests. Women rip off their headscarves, setting them afire. Others cut their hair in open defiance. Key industries are brought to a standstill, and once-revered banners of the country’s Supreme Leader are incinerated. It’s the greatest challenge to the Islamic Republic of Iran in its forty-six-year history—not coming from a foreign adversary but from their own freedom-seeking women.

Quando entrambi sono ancora membri del Partito Socialista, prima della Grande Guerra, Mussolini trova già nel futuro segretario un tenace oppositore, senza sapere che, in seguito, proprio lui, soprannominato "tempesta" dai compagni di partito, diventerà un ostacolo insormontabile per la sua sfrenata ambizione. Il loro antagonismo si rinnova un decennio dopo e culmina il 30 maggio 1924, nell'aula della Camera, dove Matteotti denuncia le violenze perpetrate dagli squadristi fascisti durante le ultime elezioni che hanno portato Mussolini alla guida di un governo di coalizione.

He wasn’t born to rule—he decided to. Seize the Crown tells the story of how a boy from Corsica rose to dominate Europe—not just with armies, but with ideas, optics, and unstoppable momentum. This isn’t a dry military chronicle or another romantic portrait. It’s a forensic breakdown of how Napoleon hacked power, reshaped law, manipulated myth, and became the blueprint for modern authoritarianism.

Our modern image of the Middle Ages—filled with vivid scenes of chivalric tournaments, epic battles, devastating plagues, revered saints, powerful kings, noble knights, and courtly ladies—was not simply uncovered through objective historical research. Rather, it was largely shaped and even invented in the 20th century. The medieval world did not emerge fully formed from the archives; it had to be imagined, interpreted, and constructed. This is the story of how that vision came to life.

Step into the whirlwind life of Gaius Julius Caesar—military genius, political disruptor, eloquent writer, and enduring legend. In this compelling and accessible biography for younger listeners, Jasmine Dyggan brings to life the dramatic highs and perilous lows that defined one of history’s most enigmatic figures. From daring acts of youthful defiance to game-changing military campaigns and radical reforms that reshaped the Roman Republic, Caesar's story is a lesson in leadership, ambition, and the price of power.

La Ciudad de México fue sacudida por un sismo de gran magnitud. Cientos de edificios se vinieron abajo, decenas de miles de vidas fueron truncadas, familias rotas, destinos destrozados. Cristina Pacheco, periodista ejemplar y dueña de una enorme sensibilidad ante el sufrimiento y la piedad, entendió que había que salir a la calle a conversar con la gente, a escuchar sus historias y compartir su dolor.

Thomas Cromwell started as a scrappy blacksmith’s son from Putney. Before he became the King’s right-hand man, Cromwell was a soldier, a merchant, and (allegedly) a bit of a dodgy dealer. By the time Henry VIII noticed him, he’d already survived Italy, bankruptcy, and at least one attempt on his life. Somehow, he ended up masterminding the greatest religious upheaval England had ever seen.

He died in 1976. His system never stopped running. Mao Zedong didn’t just lead a revolution — he encoded one. From famine to fandom, from mass mobilization to mass surveillance, mao.exe traces how one man didn’t just seize power — he became a self-replicating myth still embedded in the world’s most populous nation. This isn’t a biography. It’s a reverse-engineered autopsy of a belief system that never rebooted — it simply updated. From red books to black mirrors, mao.exe pulls back the screen on the world’s most advanced form of control: One that doesn’t need to be believed to work.

You know the name. You’ve heard the legends. But who was Nikola Tesla, really? This book cuts through the noise to reveal the human mind behind the myth. From wireless energy to earthquake machines, from communing with pigeons to decoding the structure of reality itself—Tesla wasn’t a man of his time. He was tuned to something else. Inside, you’ll find: The true story of Tesla’s war with Edison, the dreams behind Wardenclyffe and the death ray, lost inventions, buried patents, and classified seizures. A deep look into the myth-making, conspiracies, and rediscovery of Tesla in the 21st century.

Снайперское движение в Красной армии началось в самые отчаянные дни войны, осенью 1941-го, на Ленинградском фронте. В 1943 году в составе действующей армии появились первые женские снайперские взводы. На счету у многих «ангелов мщения» были десятки убитых врагов. Не всем этим девушкам довелось дожить до конца войны. Те, кому повезло, вернулись, совсем еще молодыми, к жизни обычных советских женщин. И все же главным событием их жизни стала Великая Отечественная.

La vie de Charles de Gaulle est comme un fil tendu qui nous relie au XIXe siècle finissant, nous fait comprendre les tragédies du XXe siècle et ouvre sur celles que demain nous réserve. Dans une brève allusion à son enfance, l'auteur des Mémoires de guerre évoque « une certaine fierté anxieuse » qu'il éprouvait à l'égard de la France.

Louis XIII et Richelieu : c'est tout le cadre historique des Trois Mousquetaires qui nous est raconté dans cette biographie, écrite avec toute la fougue et toute la gaieté de Dumas. Biographie qui commence par une fessée, celle que Henri IV fait donner à son fils, et Alexandre Dumas n'en est pas mécontent ; et d'une certaine façon ce sont les fessées politiques que Richelieu donnera à Louis XIII durant tout son ministère que Dumas nous raconte.

Het moderne Griekenland kent een bewogen geschiedenis. Haar link met de klassieke Oudheid en haar strategische ligging gaven het in de 19e en 20e eeuw een buitenproportionele plek op het wereldtoneel. Westerse intellectuelen projecteerden een ideaalbeeld op de nog jonge natie, terwijl grote mogendheden Griekenland als een vitale regio zagen voor hun eigen geopolitieke belangen. Meer dan eens werd het land daarmee ongewild een speelbal binnen internationale conflicten, zoals in WO II of tijdens de Koude Oorlog.

9 ottobre 1963, ore 22.39: 270 milioni di metri cubi di terra e roccia si staccarono dal monte Toc e precipitarono nel lago formato dalla diga del Vajont, sollevando un'onda alta 70 metri che spazzò la valle, travolgendo boschi, case, vite umane. Insieme alle loro esistenze andò perduto un intero mondo, un mondo che rivive in queste pagine grazie alla voce di Mauro Corona, appassionato cantore delle sue montagne, all'epoca della tragedia poco più che un bambino.

In Iconoclast, Dr Anand Teltumbde, a distinguished public intellectual and leading authority on the Dalit movement, presents a groundbreaking biography of Dr B.R. Ambedkar. Far from the embellished narratives often associated with his legacy, Teltumbde strips away the layers of myth and...

О Петре Первом написано немало. И это неудивительно. Ведь время его правления стало одной из самых ярких страниц в истории России. Несмотря на неоднозначные методы и способы проведения реформ, нельзя не признать: Петр Великий является одной из самых заметных фигур мировой истории. Алексей Толстой писал: «Исторический роман не может писаться в виде хроники, в виде истории. Нужна прежде всего композиция, архитектоника произведения. Что это такое, композиция? Это прежде всего установление центра, центра зрения». В романе Толстого таким центром является фигура Петра I .

One of Rome's most powerful women, Clodia has been maligned over two thousand years as a promiscuous, husband-murdering harlot―thanks to her starring role in one of Cicero's most famous speeches in the Forum. But Cicero was lying, in defense of his own interests. Like so many women libeled or erased from history, Clodia had a life that was much more interesting, complex, and nuanced than the corrupted version passed down through generations.

In eighteenth-century Britain, Edmund Burke and Charles Fox made common political cause for twenty-five years. They supported the rebellious American colonies, attacked the British slave trade, defended religious liberty, and attempted to shield Britain's public credit from the crisis-prone East India Company. The two men did not share social position, a way of life, a political legacy, or even a generation—but improbably, they were friends.

Arguably the most intellectual, creative, cosmopolitan, and curious of the Founding Fathers, Benjamin Franklin is the only top-tier Founder not to have served as president. Despite not becoming the Chief Executive, Franklin played an active role in American politics and served the aspiring and young United States in the key European capitals. His prodigious reading and appetite for learning are epic. As he did in works about Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, Kevin J. Hayes interprets the life and mind of Franklin through what he read.
