Fast achthundert Jahre lang stand Andalusien unter muslimischer Herrschaft, und die maurisch-spanische Kultur konnte sich zu einer Blüte entfalten, die im Europa jener Zeit ihresgleichen suchte. Noch heute stehen die architektonischen Zeugen dieser Epoche bei den meisten Besuchern Andalusiens vollkommen zu Recht im Pflichtprogramm. Die Beiträge auf unserem Jubiläums-Hörbuch tragen nicht nur diesen außergewöhnlichen Baudenkmälern Rechnung.

There is nothing more frustrating than being on vacation and struggling to communicate and make your way through the city.

The good news is that it doesn’t take much to get covered. You’ll find you can quickly learn the essentials that you need for most interactions and situations.

It is 1852, and in Sweden's far north, deep in the Arctic Circle, charismatic preacher and Revivalist Lars Levi Læstadius impassions a poverty-stricken congregation with visions of salvation. But local leaders have reason to resist a shift to temperance over alcohol. Jussi, the young Sami boy Læstadius has rescued from destitution and abuse, becomes the preacher's faithful disciple on long botanical treks to explore the flora and fauna. Læstadius also teaches him to read and write - and to love and fear God. 

The enchanted island of Corfu was home to Gerald Durrell and his family for five years before the Second World War. For the passionate young zoologist, Corfu was a natural paradise, teeming with strange birds and beasts that he could collect watch and care for. But life was not without its problems - Gerald’s family often objected to his animal-collecting activities, especially when the beasts wound up in the family’s villa or even worse - the fridge.

Esiste una Roma che non compare in nessuna guida turistica, una città nella città fatta di inattesi frammenti di magia. Una Roma in cui la parola d'ordine è girovagare, dalla primavera all'inverno, sotto la pioggia e sotto il sole, con il naso all'insú o gli occhi ben piantati, in attesa di quelle scoperte che fermano il tempo e ripuliscono lo sguardo: il capolavoro meno visibile della storia dell'arte, una piazza affollata di poeti come un ascensore, l'elefantino del Bernini «con un obelisco sul groppone», il pavone che passeggia sulla Garbatella.

"Ho dovuto rendermi conto che a Napoli la gente girava per strada in abiti di scena e che in realtà ero su un palcoscenico personaggio tra gli altri, forse più incongruo degli altri". Su questo ambiguo rapporto tra spettatore e personaggio si regge questa personalissima esplorazione di Napoli, città teatro, dove la realtà storica millenaria è elusa dalla forza di una costante rappresentazione che ripropone il tempo immobile, ricorsivo ma ricco di significato della drammaturgia.

Late arriving in Athens, Becky and Elias have to spend a night in the Greek capital.

What would you do if you're given a €20 note in Greece with an email address scribbled on it: Spend it, slip the suspect counterfeit bill into an enemy’s birthday card, or send an email, hoping it will lead to you finding everlasting love? Brad, a hopeless romantic, chose the latter. Two years later, his love life remains a disaster and his career is misfiring. As he’s about to walk Spain’s fabled Camino de Santiago to ponder some profound life changes, Brad receives a reply.

La Roma dei vagabondaggi di Lodoli non esiste in nessuna guida turistica: è una città di piccole "isole" che fanno capolino in una domenica di pioggia o in un pomeriggio di sole, e che soltanto un occhio spalancato può cogliere. Una piazza che è "un romanzo sociale a cielo aperto"; un prezioso quadro dimenticato in una chiesetta poco frequentata; un bar che la notte diventa un'odissea di solitudini, amori, vite che si incrociano; la statua piú brutta del Rinascimento mondiale, "un delirio di marmo, una figura sghemba, arricciata, indimenticabi.

A bulwark against invasion, a conduit for exchange and a challenge to be conquered, the English Channel has always been many things to many people. Today it's the busiest shipping lane in the world and hosts more than 30 million passenger crossings every year but this sliver of choppy brine, just 21 miles wide at its narrowest point, represents much more than a conductor of goods and people.

"We are all travelers in the 'wilderness of the world' - travelers with a donkey." So Robert Louis Stevenson wrote to a friend on completing this enchanting account of a journey in rural France in 1878. Alone with his pack-donkey Modestine, and showing total disregard for discomfort, Stevenson relishes to the full his walking tour of the Cevennes.
