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.

Story
Although hints of a crisis appeared as early as the 1570s, the temperature by the end of the 16th century plummeted so drastically that Mediterranean harbors were covered with ice, birds literally dropped out of the sky, and "frost fairs" were erected on a frozen Thames - with kiosks, taverns, and even brothels that become a semi-permanent part of the city. Recounting the deep legacy and far-ranging consequences of this "Little Ice Age", acclaimed historian Philipp Blom reveals how the European landscape had subtly, but ineradicably, changed by the mid-17th century.

Story
Although the ideology of judging a person for the color of their skin has infected much of the planet today, this series is focused on the origin, distribution, and perpetuity of this deceptive scourge. According to Margret Hunter of Mills College, her studies of Colorism in America and around the world is, “However, dark-skinned people of color are typically regarded as more ethnically authentic or legitimate than light-skinned people. Colorism is directly related to the larger system of racism in the USA and around the world.”

Lord Brora - mellem venner kaldet Tally - er en meget charmerende ung mand, der som tidligere officer er vant til at bestemme farten og kommandere, så da hans udkårne, den feterede Melia Melchester, hæver sin forlovelse med ham, fordi hun pludselig har fået andre jern i ilden, bliver han ikke så meget rystet som rasende. Og da lille Jean MacLeod tilfældigvis betror ham, at hun er i den samme situation, får han en idé til en kampagne mod de to frafaldne.

Story
Peter von Scholten, generalguvernør på De Vestindiske Øer gennem mere end tyve år, var i alt, han gjorde, drevet af kærlighed: kærlighed til kvinder, til penge og magt, til øerne og deres sorte befolkning. Men den mand, der i 1848 endelig satte danskernes slaver fri, var og forbliver et mysterium. Hvordan kan man forklare Peter von Scholtens usandsynlige lynkarriere fra ydmyg vejermester i Charlotte Amalie på St. Thomas til den mægtigste post i Dansk Vestindien? Hvorfra stammede hans nære forhold til kong Frederik den 6.

Story
Aber die Inquisition, welche jetzt gemeint ist, kam aus dem Westen von Europa, anders in ihrem Ursprung und anders an Gestalt. Der letzte maurische Thron war im fünfzehnten Jahrhundert in Granada gefallen und der saracenische Gottesdienst endlich dem überlegenen Glück der Christen gewichen. Aber neu und noch wenig befestigt war das Evangelium in diesem jüngsten christlichen Königreich, und in der trüben Mischung ungleichartiger Gesetze und Sitten hatten sich die Religionen noch nicht geschieden.

Story
In the sixteenth century, the Spaniards became the first nation in history to have worldwide reach--across most of Europe to the Americas, the Philippines, and India. The Golden Age of the Spanish Empire would establish five centuries of Western supremacy across the globe and usher in an era of transatlantic exploration that eventually gave rise to the modern world. It was a time of discovery and adventure, of great political and social change. Robert Goodwin delves into previously unrecorded sources to bring this tumultuous and exciting period to life
