Story
Die keltische Kultur erlebte viele Hochs und Tiefs. Auf die erste Hochphase im 7. Jh. v. Chr. folgte der Untergang, doch die Kelten richteten sich im 2. Jh. v. Chr. wieder auf, bis Julius Cäsar Gallien eroberte und die Kultur erneut erstarb. Erst nach ihrer dritten Blütezeit auf den Britischen Inseln waren die Kelten ein für allemal besiegt. Doch gerade ihre Niederlagen machen die Kelten nicht nur bei Asterix-Lesern und Druiden-Fans beliebt - es gibt so viel mehr zu erfahren über diese faszinierende, vergangene Zivilisation!

Story
G/Geschichte widmet sich in dieser Ausgabe dem großen Karl: Ob mächtiger Herrscher und Kaiser, furchtloser Kriegsherr oder Diplomat, Karl der Große wird so schnell nicht in eine Schublade gesteckt. Wie immer bei G/Geschichte wird sich dem Titelthema hier auf vielfältige Weise genähert - man erfährt nicht nur, warum Aachen die kaiserliche Lieblingsresidenz war oder was es mit dem Rolandslied auf sich hat, sondern es wird sich auch auf Spurensuche in Hinblick auf den Charakter Karls des Großen begeben.

Story
Für uns ist er August. Sachsens großer Kurfürst und Polens Wahlkönig hat verschiedene Namen getragen – je nach der Rolle, die er ausfüllte: Friedrich August I., August II., und nach seinem Tod kam "der Starke" hinzu. Allzu oft gilt der Sachse heute als platter Feier-August. Er ist ein wenig zur Marke geworden, mit der sich werben lässt. Da galt es in dieser Ausgabe von G/Geschichte, tiefer zu graben. Und so wurde der Mann gefunden, der das Glück hatte, mit seinen kulturellen Vorlieben seinem Land den Stempel aufzudrücken.

Story
Kriege sind das große Paradox der Menschheit. Damit Gesellschaften sie führen können, ist nach innen eine umfassendere – und oft auch selbstlosere – Kooperation nötig als bei fast jeder anderen Tätigkeit. Und nach außen das genaue Gegenteil. Nur so können sich Menschen ohne Rücksicht auf das eigene Leben gemeinsam auf Fremde stürzen, um diese zu töten. Diese Ausgabe von G/Geschichte geht der Frage nach, wann und wie dieses widersprüchliche Verhalten begann. Und ob es einen Ausweg daraus gibt.

Story
Simonetta Vespucci war die Geliebte Giuliano de Medicis und Muse Botticellis. Als Venus strahlte die Schönheit im Mittelpunkt seines Meisterwerkes "Primavera". Als Mäzene von Künstlern wie Botticelli oder Michelangelo erwerben sich die Medici ihren guten Ruf. Aber die Ästheten vom Arno sind zugleich Meister einer diskreten Staatspolitik. Ohne ein politisches Amt avanciert Cosimo der Alte zum heimlichen Herrscher von Florenz, der wie Don Corleone im Film "Der Pate" alle Fäden in seiner Hand hält. Im 16. Jahrhundert steigen die Medici zu Herzögen auf.

Story
Die Bronzestatue einer abgemagerten, in Lumpen gehüllten Frau, die sich mit hohlem Blick an ihre wenigen Habseligkeiten klammert, bildet zusammen mit fünf weiteren lebensgroßen Figuren das "Famine Memorial" (Hungerdenkmal) nahe dem Stadtzentrum Dublins. Das 1997 errichtete Mahnmal erinnert an eine Zeit, die den Iren bis heute präsent ist: die Hungerkatastrophe von 1845 bis 1849, die geschätzt einer Million Menschen das Leben kostete und das Verhältnis zu England wohl endgültig zerrüttete. Denn die Regierung in London sah dem Massensterben ihrer irischen Staatsangehörigen weitgehend untätig zu.

Story
Am 7. Oktober 2023 erfolgt der Terrorangriff der Hamas. Zivilisten vom Greis bis zum Kleinkind werden getötet, Frauen vergewaltigt und Hunderte Geiseln in den Gazastreifen verschleppt. Wie traumatisch dieser Tag für Israel ist, bezeugt der Beitrag der Autorin Agnes Fazekas, die in Tel Aviv lebt und die schrecklichen Folgen hautnah miterleben muss. Seit Jahrtausenden verspricht Jerusalem Frieden und Erlösung, aber keine Stadt hat mehr Krieg und Zerstörung in ihrer Geschichte erlebt. 44-mal wird Jerusalem erobert: durch Babylonier, Makedonier, Römer, Perser, Araber, Kreuzritter, Osmanen und Briten und viele mehr.

»Der vergängliche Ruhm der Herrschaft« ist ein cineastisches Juwel des portugiesischen Regisseurs Manoel de Oliveira. Der Film spielt irgendwo in Afrika, wo ein Trupp Soldaten im Dschungel gegen die einheimischen Rebellen kämpfen muss. Die jungen Männer sind voller Fragen nach den Ursprüngen der kolonialen Kriege. Sie haben Glück. Ihr tiefgründiger Offizier ist Historiker und vermittelt ihnen in lebendigen Bildern die Geschichte ihrer Nation und die Geburt des portugiesischen Weltreiches. Sein Fazit: Alle Herrschaft ist hohl und langfristig zum Scheitern verdammt.

Story
Betrachtet man eine Karte der Donau, scheinen alle Fragen beantwortet zu sein: Der Fluss entspringt im Schwarzwald, passiert zehn Länder, strömt ostwärts durch die vier Hauptstädte Wien, Bratislava, Budapest und Belgrad, ehe er sich in einem riesigen, sumpfigen Delta ins Schwarze Meer ergießt. 2783 Kilometer ist die Donau lang, gemessen vom Zusammenfluss von Breg und Brigach – aber von der Quelle? Von welcher überhaupt? Da beginnen existenzielle Fragen, die – man glaubt es kaum – erst jüngst salomonisch entschieden wurden. Überhaupt ist das Abenteuer der Donau-Erkundung staunenswert.

Als Gemeinschaft von Ausgestoßenen beschreiben die Römer rückblickend ihren Urzustand. Da ist interessant, wie schnell diese vermeintlichen Outlaws dazu übergingen, Bündnisse zu schmieden. Wie sie aus Bündnispartnern Vasallen machten. Dass andere Stämme ebenfalls nach der Macht griffen, war nur praktisch. So gab es stetig Druck von außen, der Verteidigung erforderte.

In dieser Ausgabe von G/Geschichte dreht sich alles um das Leben im Mittelalter: Schweine suhlen sich vor den Häusern, und von den Werkstätten der Gerber breitet sich ein infernalischer Gestank aus. Arme, Bettler und zuweilen Lepröse bevölkern die Gassen. Vor den Mauern verwesen die Körper der Gehenkten. Die Stadt ist kein romantischer Ort, aber sie verspricht eine Chance auf Freiheit von den Ketten der Leibeigenschaft.

Story
Der Sturm kommt aus Afrika. In nur wenigen Jahren erobern die Mauren, ein Völkergemisch aus Arabern und Berbern, fast die gesamte Iberische Halbinsel. Nur im kargen Norden Spaniens leisten die Menschen von Asturien erfolgreich Gegenwehr. Die Widerstandsnester sind die Keimzellen der späteren Königreiche Kastilien und León. Während Córdoba mit seinen Palästen, Bädern und Bibliotheken erblüht, baut man im Norden Burgen und Kathedralen. Zum Schutzpatron des Kampfes gegen die Muslime avanciert der Apostel Jakobus, der jetzt unter dem Kampfnamen "Matamoros" verehrt wird – der Maurentöter.

Grausamkeit und Toleranz sind Begriffe, die in heutiger Zeit nicht recht zusammenpassen. Jedenfalls rühmen sich unsere westlichen Regierungen gerne ihrer Menschlichkeit und Toleranz, während mehr oder weniger feindlich gesinnte Autokratien wegen ihrer Grausamkeit und Intoleranz verurteilt werden. Die Begriffspaare anders zu kombinieren, ist definitiv nicht üblich. Oder kennen Sie ein Regime, das etwa als menschlich und intolerant tituliert wird? Manche Aspekte der Hunnen erscheinen uns vielleicht auch deswegen so fremd.

Ein Blick in die Chroniken der Kreuzzüge offenbart eine Vieldeutigkeit: Friedrich I. Barbarossa erpresst den christlichen Kaiser von Byzanz, und Sultan Saladin führt mehr Kriege gegen seine Glaubensgenossen als gegen die Christen. König Richard Löwenherz ist zwar ein heldenhafter Heerführer, aber auch ein Mann ohne Skrupel. Der Verteidiger von Jerusalem, Balian von Ibelin, erweist sich zugleich als ein Deserteur. Und ausgerechnet der vermeintliche Erzschurke Rainald von Chatillon rettet 1177 das Überleben des Königreiches Jerusalem um ein weiteres Jahrzehnt.

Die Zeit der Cowboys währte gerade mal 20 Jahre. Erst nach Ende des Amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs 1865 begannen die großen Viehtriebe, und schon Mitte der 1880er-Jahre endeten sie wieder: Massenhaft produzierte Stacheldrahtzäune versperrten nun den Weg, die effektivere Eisenbahn übernahm den Transport. Trotzdem symbolisiert der Cowboy den "American Way of Life" wie kaum etwas anderes. Allein im Sattel, um ihn die leere Wildnis, wird der unbeirrbare Cowboy zum Archetyp des Eroberers. Mit der schmutzigen Realität hat das natürlich nicht viel zu tun.

Familienkriege sind nichts Ungewöhnliches. Die meisten von uns können wohl von einem in der eigenen Verwandtschaft berichten, insbesondere wenn es ein Erbe zu verteilen gibt. Die fränkischen Merowinger treiben den Zwist allerdings auf eine Spitze, die außergewöhnlich ist, selbst für das wenig zimperliche Mittelalter. Der "Merowingische Bruderkrieg", wie Historiker das innerfamiliäre Gemetzel und Gemeuchel ab 561 n. Chr. nennen, ist als Begriff aber etwas irreführend.

Die zahme kleine Schwester der Nordsee – das ist für Viele die Ostsee. Ein Vorurteil, wenn man sich anschaut, was es in der Geschichte zu entdecken gibt: Die Wikinger. Die weitverzweigte Hanse. Die großen Kämpfe zwischen den sich konsolidierenden Staaten der frühen Neuzeit. Die Abgründe des 20. Jahrhunderts. Aber auch, angelockt von der Landschaft, die Künstler auf der Suche nach Inspiration. Und die Urlauber auf Erholungssuche. Wasser trennt nicht, es verbindet. Ständig waren Menschen auf diesem Meer unterwegs. Ihre Motive? Satt werden. Reich werden. Mehr Macht bekommen. Neues entdecken. Da musste doch noch was sein, jenseits des Horizonts!

Bücher über Atlantis füllen ganze Bibliotheken. Schätzungen gehen von 20 000 Werken aus, die bislang über die Insel verfasst worden sind. Die Karte der Lokalisierungen umspannt nahezu den gesamten Globus von Helgoland über Bolivien bis nach Indonesien und Japan. Als besondere Favoriten der Atlantissucher haben sich die Inseln Santorin und Malta durch ihre geologische Biografie sowie die einzigartigen archäologischen Funde qualifiziert. Platon wäre überrascht, wenn er wüsste, welche Wellen seine Erzählung über die Jahrtausende geschlagen hat.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances....
