Story
Il nuovo approccio rinascimentale verso il mondo vide il declino dell'auctoritas e della conoscenza speculativa che aveva come fine la contemplazione della verità, legata indissolubilmente a Dio. A questo concetto si affiancò quello della conoscenza funzionale, che ha validità in quanto utilizzabile in possibili sbocchi pratici: scienza e tecnologia diventano quindi un'unica disciplina, che cerca la conoscenza della natura per modificarla secondo le proprie esigenze.

Story
Pietro I di Russia (1672 - 1725) fu detto "il Grande" per gli eccezionali risultati ottenuti durante il suo regno: la Russia feudale e orientaleggiante fu profondamente modernizzata anzitutto sul piano militare e amministrativo e trasformata in una grande potenza in qualche modo aperta all'Europa. Per conseguirli fu spietato con il suo popolo e condusse ripetute guerre, ma fondò anche Pietroburgo, che divenne la capitale civile e intellettuale aperta alle idee nuove dell'Illuminismo e all'arte europea.

Story
Quando si getta uno sguardo sulle cause che innescarono lo scoppio della Rivoluzione Francese, fenomeno multiforme e complesso, occorre tener presenti le condizioni sociali e culturali della Francia durante tutto il XVIII secolo: dalla profonda ed iniqua stratificazione della popolazione (monarchia, nobiltà, clero, borghesia, contadini) all'incessante progresso dei commerci e dei trasporti, dalla diffusione delle idee dell'Illuminismo alle fantasmagoriche, e costosissime, "liturgie" dei monarchi (i vari Luigi succedutisi durante il secolo).

Story
Il Settecento inglese è un periodo di relativa stabilità politica ma di grande sviluppo economico e finanziario per l'isola. Al consolidamento delle trasformazioni in agricoltura e all'avvio della rivoluzione industriale corrispose un notevole incremento dei traffici commerciali. Il Regno Unito (l'unione con la Scozia è del 1707) s'avviò a diventare la prima grande potenza capitalistica mondiale sancita anche dalla fondazione della Banca d'Inghilterra (1694).

Story
L'Illuminismo fu un movimento filosofico, politico, sociale e culturale sviluppatosi intorno al XVIII secolo in Europa. Nacque in Inghilterra, ma ebbe il suo massimo sviluppo in Francia, poi in tutta Europa e raggiunse anche l'America. Il termine "Illuminismo" è passato a significare genericamente qualunque forma di pensiero che voglia "illuminare" la mente degli uomini, ottenebrata dall'ignoranza e dalla superstizione, servendosi della critica della ragione e dell'apporto della scienza.

Story
Risolto il problema della successione con la "Prammatica sanzione" (1713), l'ascesa al trono d'Austria della figlia di Carlo VI, Maria Teresa d'Asburgo (1717-1780), aprì una fase di riforme anche per l'Austria. L'intero apparato di governo fu rinnovato, furono unificate le cancellerie d'Austria e di Boemia e le rispettive corti di appello. Maria Teresa fondò inoltre collegi per l'educazione e la formazione del personale statale.

Story
La storia degli ebrei è ricca di paradossi: profondamente segnata dalla religione, ma comprende anche un'anima "laica"; caratterizzata dall'aspirazione all'unità, ma ha sempre conosciuto divisioni e separazioni interne; un susseguirsi di persecuzioni, che tuttavia non hanno piegato la forte identità collettiva di quel popolo.

Story
La colonizzazione europea delle Americhe nel secolo XVII fu quel fenomeno storico che portò all'esplorazione, la conquista e l'occupazione del continente americano da parte di diversi stati d'Europa, tra i quali l'Inghilterra, la Francia, la Spagna, l'Olanda e il Portogallo. L'obiettivo principale era quello della conquista di nuovi territori, l'insediamento permanente di popolazioni europee, aprire nuovi mercati e civilizzare secondo le fedi cristiane le popolazioni native del nuovo continente scoperto da poco più di un secolo (1492).

Tra Cinquecento e Seicento si assiste in Europa a un rapido progresso delle scienze, che investe non soltanto l'acquisizione di singole conoscenze, ma soprattutto il metodo scientifico adottato. Tutto inizia con la rivoluzione astronomica di Copernico nel XVI secolo, seguito poi dal genio di Galilei, di Keplero e infine di Newton.

Story
Gli Asburgo furono la dinastia regnante in Spagna tra il Cinquecento e il Seicento. L'imperatore Carlo V (Carlo I di Spagna) lasciò in eredità ai suoi discendenti un enorme complesso territoriale senza paragone nella storia, che si estendeva dalle Filippine al Messico e dai Paesi Bassi allo Stretto di Magellano facendo della Spagna una delle nazioni protagoniste delle vicende europee del secolo del Barocco. L'audiolibro descrive brevemente la storia dei vari regnanti spagnoli, la decadenza economica e sociale della penisola iberica, i continui soprusi da parte dell'aristocrazia e del clero cattolico nei confronti di contadini, di moriscos e di ebrei.

Le grandi migrazioni di popolazioni di fede musulmana verso l'Europa, la globalizzazione dei mercati, i moti della «Primavera araba» hanno accorciato le distanze tra noi e il mondo islamico, rendendo indispensabile la conoscenza non solo sociale e storica, ma anche giuridica, di quelle società. Il complesso sistema normativo conosciuto come shari'a rappresenta l'insieme di regole che disciplinano la vita della comunità dei fedeli musulmani, dal matrimonio ai contratti, alle pene. Come si è evoluto il diritto islamico dalla fine del XIX secolo ad oggi.

Nella storiografia moderna il secolo XVII nell'Europa del Nord è conosciuto come il periodo dell'impero svedese sebbene formalmente la Svezia non sia mai stata un vero e proprio 'impero' in senso terminologico, ma sia rimasta sempre un 'regno'. L'audiolibro racconta la storia di questa nazione a partire dalla dinastia dei Vasa fino alle soglie dell'assolutismo regio della fine del secolo, centrando l'attenzione soprattutto sul regnante che più di tutti ha caratterizzato la storia dello stato scandinavo: Gustavo II Adolfo.

L'audiolibro illustra i passaggi storici più rilevanti del secolo, come il conflitto fra Corona e Parlamento, l'invenzione del debito pubblico e della Banca d'Inghilterra, il Bill of Rights.

All'inizio del '600 metà dell'Italia era dominata dagli spagnoli. Gli unici Stati indipendenti erano quello Pontificio, la Repubblica di Venezia e il Ducato di Savoia. Le condizioni sociali, economiche e politiche della penisola ebbero un tracollo che si protrasse fino all'Unità nazionale del 1861. L'audiolibro fa una panoramica di questa situazione con escursioni anche nella vita quotidiana del popolo, nelle corti dei principi, nelle arti e nelle scienze.

Il Seicento in Francia è dominato dalla figura del Re Sole, ovvero Luigi XIV della casata dei Borboni. Questo sovrano assolutista realizzò uno stato nel quale il re era sciolto dalle leggi (legibus solutus), essendo il suo potere superiore a chiunque altro all'interno della nazione. Ridusse la nobiltà alla totale obbedienza, costruì una sfarzosa reggia a Versailles e obbligò i nobili a trasferirvisi lasciando i propri possedimenti.

Quando si tratta di cercare le origini di quel vasto movimento intellettuale e spirituale che va sotto il nome di Rinascimento e che comunemente si suole distinguere in Umanesimo e Rinascimento propriamente detto, dobbiamo tornare indietro nel tempo rispetto ai secoli a cui quei fenomeni sono universalmente attribuiti. Infatti è proprio nel XIII e XIV secolo che si gettano le basi per l'interesse verso le lettere classiche, l'esaltazione della poesia e della libera creazione.

Story
La caduta di Costantinopoli nel 1453, determinò il passaggio ai Turchi del controllo delle preziose merci che giungevano in Europa dall'Asia. Nacque così in tutto il continente l'esigenza di trovare vie alternative per giungere in India e in Cina. Le nuove innovazioni e i fondamentali progressi nella navigazione e nella cartografia permisero le grandi esplorazioni compiute nel Quattrocento e Cinquecento da spagnoli e portoghesi, ma l'impresa più celebre e significativa è senza dubbio quella compiuta da Cristoforo Colombo che il 12 ottobre 1492 raggiunse il continente americano, segnando una vera e propria svolta nella storia universale, tanto da costituire per molti storici l'inizio dell'età moderna.

Il XV secolo sancisce il vero e proprio passaggio dal Medioevo al Rinascimento. Nel Quattrocento, in Italia, si assiste alla formazione di alcuni rilevanti stati regionali (Genova, Firenze, Milano, Venezia), accanto ai quali si distribuiscono una miriade di centri signorili minori; in questa realtà policentrica la corte si afferma come il luogo principale dell'organizzazione politica e dell'elaborazione culturale.

Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.
