Germany Unveiled - A Historical Expedition

Pasquale De Marco

Sinopsis

Delve into the rich tapestry of German history with this captivating book that unveils the nation's intricate past. From ancient roots to modern times, we embark on a journey through empires, wars, cultural movements, and the indomitable spirit of a people who have repeatedly risen from adversity.

In the medieval era, we witness the rise of powerful dynasties, the influence of the Church, and the devastating impact of the Black Death. The Renaissance and Reformation bring about intellectual and religious upheavals, reshaping Germany's cultural and political landscape.

The Age of Absolutism sees Prussia's emergence as a major power, the reign of Frederick the Great, and the profound impact of the Enlightenment. The tumultuous events of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars leave an indelible mark on Germany's destiny.

The 19th century brings about a wave of change, as Germany embarks on a journey of unification and industrialization. The Zollverein fosters economic growth, while the Revolutions of 1848 ignite a desire for political reform. Otto von Bismarck's leadership ultimately leads to the formation of the German Empire in 1871.

The 20th century is a time of both triumph and tragedy for Germany. Imperial Germany's ambitions are shattered in the First World War, and the Weimar Republic faces immense challenges in its aftermath. The rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime brings about a dark chapter in history, culminating in the horrors of the Holocaust and the devastation of World War II.

Post-war Germany undergoes a remarkable transformation, divided into East and West, yet eventually reunited in 1990. The challenges of reunification and the nation's role in a changing world order are explored, along with Germany's contributions to culture, science, and technology.

This book is a comprehensive and engaging exploration of German history, providing a deep understanding of the forces that have shaped this remarkable nation. Through its pages, readers will gain a profound appreciation for Germany's rich heritage and its enduring legacy.

The Case of the Married Woman -...

Antonia Fraser

Caroline Norton dazzled nineteenth-century society with her vivacity, her intelligence, her poetry, and in her role as an artist's muse. After her marriage in 1828 to the MP George Norton, she continued to attract friends and admirers to her salon in Westminster. Most prominent among her admirers was the widowed Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne. 
 
 
 
Racked with jealousy, George Norton took the Prime Minister to court, suing him for damages on account of his adultery with Caroline. A dramatic trial followed. Despite the unexpected and sensational result—acquittal—Norton was still able to legally deny Caroline access to her children. He also claimed her income as an author for himself, since the copyrights of a married woman belonged to her husband. 
 
 
 
Yet Caroline refused to despair. Beset by the personal cruelties perpetrated by her husband and a society whose rules were set against her, she chose to fight. She channeled her energies in an area of much-needed reform: the rights of a married woman and specifically those of a mother. She campaigned tirelessly, achieving her first landmark victory with the Infant Custody Act of 1839. Provisions which are now taken for granted owe much to Caroline, who was determined to secure justice for women at all levels of society from the privileged to the dispossessed.
