Historic quarters in cities and towns across the middle of Europe were devastated during the Second World War—some, like those of Warsaw and Frankfurt, had to be rebuilt almost completely. They are now centers of peace and civility that attract millions of tourists, but the stories they tell about places, peoples, and nations are selective. They are never the whole story. Exploring seven old towns, from Frankfurt and Prague to Vilnius in Lithuania, Marek Kohn examines how they have been used since the Second World War to conceal political tensions and reinforce certain versions of history.

In this book, Kálal questions the prevalent trust placed in politics, particularly in its narrowest sense, such as parliamentary and journalistic struggles. Instead, he argues that the true strength of the nation lies in moral fortitude and piety. Drawing inspiration from historical figures like Jan Hus and the Czech Brethren, Kálal highlights the invincible power of the nation's piety and its potential for resilience and progress.

What would become the nation of Yugoslavia was created in the turbulent period following the end of World War I in 1918, but ended 74 years later in the chaos of another war. In its relatively brief history, Yugoslavia endured invasion during World War II and a range of styles of leadership that included an autocratic king, an even more autocratic socialist dictator, as well as brief periods of parliamentary democracy.

Jak vypadala krajina 13. století? A kdo byli její obyvatelé? Kolika let se dožívali, na jaké nemoci trpěli? Jak spolu vycházeli čeští a němečtí kolonisté? Poznáme významné stavby na našem území a budeme sledovat počátky gotiky, zakládání měst a jejich rozkvět. Byli naši předci tak nároční na bydlení a odívání, jako jsme my? Co znamenaly chrámy pro tehdejší lidi a jaká byla jejich spiritualita? Jako úlohu přičítali vzdělání, jak se bavili a jak milovali? Na tyto i další otázky odpovídá historik Vlastimil Vondruška.

Co víme o 12. století? Třeba to, že se v Evropě začal pomocí destilace vyrábět alkohol, byla pravděpodobně sepsána Kosmova kronika česká, byly založeny řády Templářů a Premonstrátů, vznikl gotický sloh, byl vynalezen střelný prach a také proběhla první doložená chřipková epidemie. Jak se ale obecně žilo lidem ve 12. století? To popisuje první část cyklu Život ve staletích. I když dílo vychází z dostupných historických pramenů a odráží současný stav poznání, nejde o učebnici.

Żadne inne duże polskie miasto nie ma tylu tajemniczych i niezwykłych historii co Szczecin. Dlaczego? Bo nigdzie indziej losy nie potoczyły się w tak skomplikowany sposób. W ciągu wieków miastem władali na przemian Niemcy, Polacy, Francuzi i Szwedzi. W czasie II wojny światowej największe zniszczenia spowodowali w nim nie Rosjanie, lecz... Anglicy. Wiele razy w oficjalnej historii Szczecina próbowano przemilczać niewygodne fakty lub wymyślać nieprawdziwe propagandowe hasła. Tymczasem na przełomie XIX i XX wieku było to jedno z najważniejszych miast Europy.

Tamara Barriga z pasją i odwagą wnika w nieodkryte dotąd tajemnice Wrocławia. Zdradza, dlaczego w Mrówkowcu mieszka się luksusowo i… nieznośnie. Opowiada o ludziach, którzy wyróżniali się mądrością, pracowitością, a w końcu zapisali się w historii miasta i nie tylko: profesor Alzheimer, Otfrid Foerster – lekarz Lenina, Sir Gutmann – ojciec igrzysk paraolimpijskich czy profesor Tołpa – wierzący w leczniczą moc torfu.

La historia de Europa Oriental es una historia de éxitos y fracasos, de intereses contrapuestos, y de ascenso y caída de estados e imperios. Los antiguos imperios griego y romano conocían la importancia de Europa del Este para el comercio y los asentamientos. Más tarde, durante el período Migratorio, también conocido como las «invasiones bárbaras», Europa del Este se convirtió en el terreno de juego de muchos grupos humanos. Los visigodos, los hunos, los eslavos y las tribus turcas de Asia central, como los ávaros y los jázaros, se abrieron paso en Europa Oriental.
