Story
Lucky you! You found a bundle! This is a combo book with multiple titles. Scotland is an old country with an ancient history. There is no doubt about that. Many traditions, words, symbols, and other cultural aspects we see as normal today originate from Scotland. With all of this history and more in the past few centuries, when things got really interesting, let’s take a look at some of the best-known, most important factors of Scotland’s history, and what we can learn from them. Additionally, we will discuss the ghosts of Scotland, the wars of independence, and William Wallace.

Story
During the Spanish inquisition, being called a heretic, a witch, or a sinner meant business. It could mean the end of your life. And so, it is with a tragic view on the past that we see countless innocent victims being accused of something they never did, with no bad intentions or rebellious behavior, and nonetheless being executed in brutal manners. One of the proponents of this system, and an active executioner, was Thomas de Torquemada, a completely insane, cruel man who had become notorious for his methods of hunting down and taking out supposed anti-church offenders.

Story
Nessuna città ha un nome così evocativo: appena lo pronunci l'Oriente t'assale. Samarcanda è l'estrema tra le Alessandrie fondate dal re macedone; è la città delle fortezze e dei sepolcri; è il nodo carovaniero sulla Via della Seta, il maggior raccordo commerciale di terra fra Cina ed Europa; è la sede del Gur-Amir, tempio e santuario, centro del mondo dalla cupola turchese sotto la quale il grande Tamerlano dorme per sempre.

Story
"Den sorte vikining - en saga" begynder i Rogaland i år 846 efter Kristus. Her fødtes en dag en helt speciel kongesøn. Han skulle blive "Den sorte viking" - regnet for en af de største vikinger og den mægtigste landnamsmand i Island. Denne mørklødede høvding stod i spidsen for en international fangstøkonomi hovedsagelig baseret på hvalrosfangst. Han havde hundredvis af slaver under sig. Kristne slaver fra Skotland og Irland. Men vi ved næsten ingenting om den sorte viking, Geirmund Helskind. Der findes ingen saga om ham, og eftertiden har forsøgt at glemme ham.

Story
This history of medieval inventions, focusing on the 11th to the 14th centuries, vividly portrays a thriving era of human ingenuity, and the results are still being felt to this day. From the mechanical clock to the first eyeglasses, both of which revolutionized society, many of the commonplace devices we now take for granted had their origin in the Middle Ages. Divided into 10 thematic chapters, the accessible audiobook allows the listener to sample areas of interest or listen to the book from beginning to end for a complete historical overview.

Story
William the First, who was also called William the Conqueror, and in some cases, William the Bastard, was the first Norman emperor of England, ruling from 1066 till his death in 1087. Around this time, many wars and battles were waged over the kingdom and distribution of territories in Europe. France, the Anglo-Saxons, and Scandinavian troops were engaged in raids, struggles, and battles to claim their lands and gains. I invite you to learn more about this first king of England, who lived almost 1,000 years ago.

Story
Although it ended over 550 years ago, the Hundred Years’ War still looms large in the historical consciousness of England and France, even if the name of the famous war is a misnomer. The war was transformative in many respects, and the impact it had on the geopolitical situation of Europe cannot be overstated. While some might think of the war as being a continuation of the feudal tradition of knights and peasants, the Hundred Years’ War revolutionized Western European warfare, and it truly helped to usher in the concept of nationalism on the continent.

Story
Somewhat ironically, the one aspect of the Middle Ages that has been romanticized is medieval warfare. What is generally forgotten is that medieval warfare was constantly adapting to the times as leaders adopted new techniques and technology, and common infantry became increasingly important throughout the period. The changes became most evident at the beginning of the 14th century, when the French army fought rebellious forces from Flanders in the Battle of the Golden Spurs on July 11, 1302.

Sentimentale ma molto reale: in quattro navigazioni il viaggio si snoda dall'Egeo dei tempi di Ulisse alle coste romane di Ostia, da Costantinopoli all'Andalusia, da Ragusa a Cipro e infine da Alessandria d'Egitto a Ravenna. Di porto in porto, di tappa in tappa, ci ritroviamo in epoche diverse, nella Atene del V secolo a.C, a Cartagine alla vigilia della terza guerra punica, nella Valencia del Cid Campeador, nella Genova medievale, a Istanbul, e a Napoli all'inizio del Novecento.

Parliamo di donne velate e subito pensiamo allo hijab o agli altri tipi di copertura del capo, o del volto, o dell'intero corpo della donna che sono in uso nel mondo islamico e che, non senza originare polemiche, molte islamiche indossano anche nei paesi occidentali. Ma la prescrizione alle donne di coprirsi il capo appartiene in pieno anche alla storia dell'Occidente.

Qual era l'aspetto di Roma all'epoca dei Templari, e quali luoghi della città furono teatro di eventi cruciali per la storia del leggendario Ordine? Lo si scoprirà attraverso una serie di tappe significative. Come guida, avremo alcune figure illustri: Hugues de Payns e Jacques de Molay, il primo Maestro e l'ultimo, e fra loro san Bernardo di Clairvaux, il grande mistico del XII secolo che a buon diritto può essere considerato la colonna ideologica e spirituale del Tempio.

Story
Given the personalities involved, the Third Crusade is among the most famous of the Crusades, and the Battle of Jaffa occurred on August 8, 1192 on the site of an ancient port that is now the oldest part of the city of Tel-Aviv, Israel. It was the encounter that brought the Third Crusade to a conclusion, and though it is not one of the better-known battles of the Crusades and certainly not the most spectacular in terms of battle numbers, it helped shape how the Middle East would look going forward.

"Blauzahn", "Blutaxt" oder "Schönhaar" - die Beinamen der frühen Könige des Nordens sind so fantasievoll wie die Überlieferung ihrer Taten. Die Skalden vermischen in ihren Sagas Dichtung und Geschichtsschreibung zu einem Amalgam. Erst Knut der Große tritt aus dem Nebel der Sage und nimmt konkrete historische Konturen an. Der Däne schmiedet ein Imperium aus England, Dänemark, Norwegen und Schweden. Er ist ein maßvoller Herrscher mit Ambitionen: Angelsachsen und Wikinger sollen im Zeichen des Kreuzes zusammenwachsen. Knuts Vision steht auf tönernen Füßen.

Many ancient civilizations have influenced and inspired people in the 21st century, and the Greeks and Romans continue to fascinate the West today, but of all the world’s civilizations, none have intrigued people more than the Mayans, whose culture, astronomy, language, and mysterious disappearance all continue to captivate people. In the past decade especially, there has been a renewed focus on the Mayans, whose advanced calendar led many to speculate the world would end on the same date the Mayan calendar ended in 2012.

La Edad Media abarca el espacio de tiempo comprendido desde comienzos del siglo V hasta finales del siglo XV. A lo largo de estas centurias, grandes desafíos pusieron a prueba, azotaron, y en ocasiones asolaron a las mujeres y hombres medievales. No obstante, siempre terminaron por sobreponerse a las terribles guerras, pestes, hambrunas, crisis, revueltas y demás jinetes apocalípticos que intermitentemente los persiguieron durante mil largos años de Edad Media.

Altrettanto estesa è la varietà dei fronti, dalla penisola iberica al Medio Oriente, passando attraverso l'Italia, i territori anglofrancesi e l'Europa orientale. La guerra medievale, inoltre, è contrassegnata da conflitti la cui portata ha rivestito un ruolo cruciale nella storia dell'umanità.

Story
The term Moor is a historical rather than an ethnic name. It is an invention of European Christians for the Islamic inhabitants of Maghreb (North Africa), Andalusia (Spain), Sicily and Malta, and was sometimes use to designate all Muslims. It is derived from Mauri, the Latin name for the Berbers who lived in the Roman province of Mauretania, which ranged across modern Algeria and Morocco. Saracen was another European term used to designate Muslims, though it usually referred to the Arabic peoples of the Middle East.
