Story
In August 1989, a group of Hungarian activists organized a picnic on the border of Hungary and Austria. But this was not an ordinary picnic—it was located on the dangerous militarized frontier known as the Iron Curtain. Tacit permission from the highest state authorities could be revoked at any moment. On wisps of rumor, thousands of East German "vacationers" packed Hungarian campgrounds, awaiting an opportunity, fearing prison, surveilled by lurking Stasi agents.

¿Existió de verdad el rey Arturo? ¿Y Robin Hood? ¿El Sagrado Grial es un cáliz u otra cosa? ¿Es cierto que en Europa millones de personas ardieron en la hoguera condenadas por brujería? Estos son tan solo algunos de los temas que Dorsey Armstrong, estudiosa del Medioevo, desarrolla sobre esas historias medievales de las que tanto hablamos. Algunas contienen retazos de verdad, otras son completamente inventadas, pero todas ellas nos cuentan cosas sobre el pasado.

Story
The Western Front dominates our memories of the First World War. Yet a million and half men died in northeast Italy in a war that need never have happened, when Italy declared war on the Habsburg Empire in May 1915. Led by General Luigi Cadorna, the most ruthless of all the Great War commanders, waves of Italian conscripts were sent charging up the limestone hills north of Trieste to be massacred by troops fighting to save their homelands.

Story
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.

Story
Marie Aymard was an illiterate widow who lived in the provincial town of Angoulême in southwestern France, a place where seemingly nothing ever happened. Yet, in 1764, she made her fleeting mark on the historical record through two documents: a power of attorney in connection with the property of her late husband, a carpenter on the island of Grenada, and a prenuptial contract for her daughter, signed by 83 people in Angoulême. Who was Marie Aymard? Who were all these people? And why were they together on a dark afternoon in December 1764?

Sin embargo, la Rusia actual no es más que un vestigio del gran territorio que en su día constituyó la Rusia Imperial. El Imperio ruso se extendía por todos los continentes y, en un momento dado, la Rusia Imperial podía reclamar territorios desde Alaska hasta Polonia y casi todo lo demás.
