About this listen
La gesta de la nación más antigua de Europa creada, con no pocos sinsabores, a lo largo de treinta siglos de historia. Contar la historia de España desde sus orígenes, en la prehistoria, hasta la actualidad, de un modo conciso y divulgativo puede parecer una tarea titánica, a ratos imposible, pero es la tarea que emprende Luis E. Íñigo en esta Breve Historia de España I. Las raíces, la historia de la España es laberíntica, compleja, llena de vericuetos y de etapas oscuras y sólo un autor con una vocación divulgativa enorme puede hacer que sea accesible a todo el mundo. Esta es la intención de este audio libro, relatar de un modo minucioso pero accesible, aunando los datos con los procesos históricos ya que ambos son indisolubles e interdependientes, la historia de la nación más antigua de Europa.
El audio libro comienza, nada menos que en el Paleolítico inferior para mostrarnos a los primeros pobladores de Iberia, recolectores y carroñeros. Tras esta enorme época de inmovilismo llegará una sucesión vertiginosa de pueblos que se instalaron en distintos puntos y prefiguran una compleja identidad nacional: celtas, fenicios y griegos, preparan la gran unificación romana que deja a España, como herencia, señas de identidad tan importantes como el lenguaje, la integración territorial o el cristianismo. Luis E. Íñigo luego nos presenta la historia de la invasión musulmana y cómo esa idea de la Hispania unificada por los romanos queda en el espíritu de los nobles hasta que el contexto histórico les permite la recuperación del territorio.
Una vez recuperado, comenzará un período de expansión mundial que convertirá a España en la potencia hegemónica. Culmina este primer volumen con la descripción del reinado de los Austrias, las luces y las sombras del Imperio y la decadencia simbolizada perfectamente por la figura de Carlos II.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Por primera vez un volumen reúne la historia de España escrita por Arturo Pérez-Reverte durante más de cuatro años en su columna «Patente de corso» del XL Semanal. Un relato ameno, personal, a ratos irónico, pero siempre único, de nuestra accidentada historia a través de los siglos. Una obra concebida por el autor para, en palabras suyas, «divertirme, releer y disfrutar; un pretexto para mirar atrás desde los tiempos remotos hasta el presente, reflexionar un poco sobre ello y contarlo por escrito de una manera poco ortodoxa.»

Antes de que el país moderno naciera en 1821, el territorio que hoy comprende 32 estados y algunas islas pequeñas estaba habitado por antiguas dinastías y reinos de guerreros, astrónomos, sacerdotes, templos para sacrificios humanos y, sorprendentemente, algunas de las ciudades más grandes del mundo. Se estima que la sagrada ciudad de Chichén Itzá, en la península de Yucatán, en su máximo esplendor fue más grande que París.

What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.
