Story
It is not an easy job to draw the border between the history of Italy and the history of Rome. In so many places, the two political and geographical entities collide. They wouldn’t be possible without each other, but they each have their own story. Rome’s history is only a small fragment of Italy’s history. Although it is just a city, Rome was the birthplace of the republic, a great empire, and notable philosophers, poets, and artists.

Story
Convulsed by a civilizational crisis, the great thinkers of the Renaissance set out to reconceive the nature of society. Corrupt and reckless tyrants sowing discord and ruling through fear; elites who prized wealth and status over the common good; military leaders waging endless wars. Their solution was simple and radical. They would rebuild their city, and their civilization, by transforming the moral character of its citizens. Soulcraft, they believed, was a precondition of successful statecraft.

Story
While staying closely aligned with Hitler, Mussolini remained carefully neutral until the summer of 1940. At that moment, with the wholly unexpected and sudden collapse of the French and British armies, Mussolini declared war on the Allies in the hope of making territorial gains in Southern France and Africa. This decision proved a horrifying miscalculation, dooming Italy to its own prolonged and unwinnable war, immense casualties, and an Allied invasion in 1943 that ushered in a terrible new era for the country.

Story
The IRA has been a much richer, more complexly layered, and more protean organization than is frequently recognized. It is also more open to balanced examination now - at the end of its long war in the north of Ireland - than it was even a few years ago. Richard English's brilliant audiobook offers a detailed history of the IRA, providing invaluable historical depth to our understanding of the modern-day Provisionals, the more militant wing formed in 1969 dedicated to the removal of the British Government from Northern Ireland and the reunification of Ireland.

In 1972, when workers in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, were digging the foundations for a new development, the last thing they expected to find was a skeleton at the bottom of a well. Who the skeleton was and how it got there were two of the long-held secrets kept by the residents of Chicken Hill, the dilapidated neighborhood where immigrant Jews and African Americans lived side by side and shared ambitions and sorrows. Chicken Hill was where Moshe and Chona Ludlow lived when Moshe integrated his theater and where Chona ran the Heaven & Earth Grocery Store.

Since she was nine years old, Alina Dziak knew she would marry her best friend, Tomasz. Now 15 and engaged, Alina is unconcerned by reports of Nazi soldiers at the Polish border, believing her neighbors that they pose no real threat, and dreams instead of the day Tomasz returns from college in Warsaw so they can be married. But little by little, injustice by brutal injustice, the Nazi occupation takes hold, and Alina’s tiny rural village, its families, are divided by fear and hate. Then, as the fabric of their lives is slowly picked apart, Tomasz disappears.

Story
In the fifteenth century, even before the city states of the Apennine Peninsula began to coalesce into what would become, several centuries later, a nation, "Italy" exerted enormous influence over all of Europe and throughout the Mediterranean. Viewing the Italy (the many Italies?) of that time through the lens of today allows us to gather a fragmented, multi-faceted, and seemingly contradictory history into a single unifying narrative that speaks to our current reality as much as it does to a specific historical period. This is what the French historian Fernand Braudel achieves here.

With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel.

Spain's position on Europe's southwestern corner has exposed it to cultural, political and actual winds blowing from all quadrants. Africa lies a mere nine miles to the south. The Mediterranean connects it to the civilisational currents of Phoenicians, Romans, Carthaginians and Byzantines as well as the Arabic lands of the Near East. Hordes from the Russian steppes were amongst the first to arrive. They would be followed by Visigoths, Arabs, Napoleonic armies and many more invaders and immigrants.

1 novembre 1535-19 dicembre 1548: fra queste due date, che segnano l'una la morte senza eredi di Francesco II Sforza e l'altra l'ingresso trionfale di Filippo II a Milano, si compie la parabola del Ducato da stato autonomo a periferia della Spagna. L'estinzione della dinastia milanese apre infatti un vuoto di potere legittimo di cui profitta Carlo V, sovrano del Sacro Romano Impero, per impossessarsi della città e trasmetterla poi al figlio ed erede Filippo II, re di Spagna.

Story
A metà marzo 1610 Galileo pubblica il "Sidereus Nuncius", l'opera che annuncia una serie straordinaria di novità celesti che avrebbero inferto un colpo definitivo alla concezione geometrica dell'universo elaborata da Aristotele e sistematizzata da Tolomeo. Le scoperte galileiane, ottenute col supporto essenziale del cannocchiale, contribuiscono all'affermazione della teoria eliocentrica delineata da Copernico nel suo "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" del 1543.

Story
17 febbraio 1600: il filosofo Giordano Bruno, condannato per eresia dall'Inquisizione romana, brucia, spogliato nudo, legato a un palo e imbavagliato, in Piazza Campo de' Fiori. Ad ardere sul rogo non è un cristiano qualunque, come Roma non è solo la capitale dello Stato della Chiesa ma anche il centro della cristianità. Bruno è un personaggio cosmopolita, amico di principi e ambasciatori, una figura europea di grande fama e livello intellettuale, noto ovunque.
