Story
Un deslumbrante estudio biográfico del mayor filósofo alemán del siglo XIX por uno de los autores de habla alemana más leídos del siglo XX. En esta vívida y elocuente biografía, Zweig evita en gran medida el discurso académico tradicional sobre la obra del filósofo, concentrándose por completo en Nietzsche como persona, sus hábitos, sus pasiones y sus obsesiones. Stefan Zweig describe la tragedia de la existencia de Nietzsche, su aislamiento del mundo, en el aislamiento autoimpuesto, de una manera extremadamente poderosa e impresionante.

Story
Stefan Zweig trabajó más de veinte años en Momentos estelares de la humanidad. El libro reúne catorce momentos históricos retratados por Zweig, fundamentales desde su punto de vista para el transcurso de la historia. El asesinato de Cicerón, la expedición fallida al Polo Sur del capitán Scott y la fiebre del oro de California en 1848 son solo algunos de estos relatos que ilustran la visión del mundo que tenía Zweig, que apela a los procedimientos narrativos de sus novelas para dar vida a narraciones que siempre oscilan entre lo ficcional y lo fáctico.

José Fouché fue uno de los hombres mas poderosos de su època y uno de los mas extraordinarios de todos los tiempos.

A Napoleóni en Santa Elena, a Robespierre entre los jacobinos, a Carnot, Barras y Talleyrand en sus respectivas Memorias, y a todos los historiadores franceses — realistas, republicanos o bonapartistas—, la piuma les rezuma hiel cuando escriben su nombre.

Ésta es la historia de un hombre, tres mujeres, una revolución y un tesoro. La revolución fue la de México en tiempos de Emiliano Zapata y Francisco Villa.

El hombre se llamaba Martín Garret Ortiz y era un joven ingeniero de minas español. Todo empezó para él ese mismo día, cuando desde su hotel oyó un primer disparo lejano. Salió a la calle para ver qué ocurría y a partir de ese momento su vida cambió para siempre.

Publisher's summary
No ha habido mayor defensor de los valores de la República romana que Marco Tulio Cicerón, el azote de los corruptos y los enemigos del estado romano.Cuando tras cruzar el Rubicón, Julio César se hizo con el poder, Cicerón, sin miedo alguno a las consecuencias, criticó la tiranía de su mandato, que iba en contra de los valores esenciales de la República.Cuando César fue asesinado y Marco Antonio consiguió controlar al Senado, comenzó a eliminar a todos aquellos que pudieran estorbar sus planes.
Aunque no tuviera armas ni legiones, en las palabras de Cicerón veía Marco Antonio a sus mayores enemigas, porque no podía luchar contra ellas. Haría de su muerte un ejemplo.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.
