About this listen
Un mondo che si considera prospero e civile, segnato da disuguaglianze e squilibri al suo interno, ma forte di un'amministrazione stabile e di un'economia integrata; all'esterno, popoli costretti a sopravvivere con risorse insufficienti, minacciati dalla fame e dalla guerra, e che sempre più spesso chiedono di entrare; una frontiera militarizzata per filtrare profughi e immigrati; e autorità di governo che debbono decidere volta per volta il comportamento da tenere verso queste emergenze, con una gamma di opzioni che va dall'allontanamento forzato all'accoglienza in massa, dalla fissazione di quote d'ingresso all'offerta di aiuti umanitari e posti di lavoro.
Potrebbe sembrare una descrizione del nostro mondo, e invece è la situazione in cui si trovò per secoli l'impero romano di fronte ai barbari." Per molto tempo la gestione di questo flusso di popoli attraverso i confini dell'Impero produce un equilibrio instabile ma funzionale, che garantisce ai Romani l'approvvigionamento di nuove leve per l'esercito e per la coltivazione dei campi, in cambio dell'assimilazione nei più grande "Stato" del pianeta.

Le Crociate: e cioè l'avventura di quei cristiani che hanno accettato l'appello del papa, sentendone il fascino, e si sono messi in gioco, facendo cose che oggi ci sembrano assai discutibili e che invece a loro sembravano sacrosante. Il fatto è che i musulmani non sono rimasti inerti quando un'orda di barbari sanguinari venuti da chissà dove, per di più miscredenti, è entrata in terra islamica seminando distruzione."

Story
Questo libro racconta di una battaglia che ha cambiato la storia del mondo ma non è famosa come Waterloo o Stalingrado: anzi, molti non l'hanno mai sentita nominare. Eppure secondo qualcuno segnò addirittura la fine dell'Antichità e l'inizio del Medioevo, perché mise in moto la catena di eventi che più di un secolo dopo avrebbe portato alla caduta dell'impero romano d'Occidente. Parleremo di Antichità e Medioevo, di Romani e barbari, di un mondo multietnico e di un impero in trasformazione e di molte altre cose ancora.

Story
Parte integrante del Regno di Sicilia durante l'età normanna e sveva, il Regno di Napoli nasce come entità statale nel 1282, con Carlo d'Angiò, dopo la rivolta dei Vespri, che sancisce l'indipendenza dell'isola. Napoli diventa così capitale, incarnando da sola le miserie e gli splendori dell'intero reame: "l'enorme testa che poggia su un fragile corpo". Fino alla sua caduta per mano di Garibaldi e dell'esercito sabaudo, nel 1861. Questo libro è un viaggio alla scoperta delle sue contraddizioni, che cerca di rispondere a più di un interrogativo.

Il secolo appena trascorso si è chiuso nel caos e l'inizio del nuovo si annuncia drammatico. La pistola di Gaetano Bresci spezza la vita di Umberto I, colpevole di aver decorato con la gran croce quel Bava Beccaris che aveva sparato sulla folla di Milano. Potrebbe essere l'inizio di una catastrofe politica e sociale, invece è l'avvio di un nuovo corso di politica liberale. Intanto in Europa impazza la Belle Époque.

For the past few hundred years, most of what we’ve been taught about the native cultures of North America came from reports authored by the conquerors and colonizers who destroyed them. Now - with the technological advances of modern archaeology and a new perspective on world history - we are finally able to piece together their compelling true stories. In Ancient Civilizations of North America, Professor Edwin Barnhart, Director of the Maya Exploration Center, will open your eyes to a fascinating world you never knew existed - even though you’ve been living right next to it, or even on top of it.

In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Mesopotamia is the ancient name for the region that is now Iraq, a remarkably advanced civilization that flourished for two-thirds of the time that civilization has existed on Earth. Mesopotamians mastered irrigation agriculture; built the first complex urban societies; developed writing, literature, and law; and united vast regions through warfare and diplomacy. While civilizations like Greece and Rome have an unbroken tradition of written histories, the rich history of Mesopotamia has only been recently rediscovered, thanks to the decipherment of Mesopotamia's cuneiform writing less than 200 years ago.

The Roman gladiator has long been a figure of fascination. Portrayed frequently in fine art and popular culture alike, the gladiator is both a real part of history and a legend of a romanticized past. We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like? And why do they continue to have such a strong hold on our imagination, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire?

For two centuries, the deep-seated fear that many White people feel—of losing power, of losing economic standing, of losing a particular “way of life”—has been the driving force behind American politics and culture. And as we approach a future where White people will become a racial minority in the US, something estimated to occur as early as 2043, that fear is only intensifying, festering, and becoming more visible. Are we destined for a violent clash? What can we do to step into our country’s inevitable future, without tearing ourselves apart in the process?
