Gengis Khan e Attila sono sicuramente due tra i condottieri più conosciuti di tutti i tempi: il primo è stato capace di creare il più vasto impero mai visto sulla faccia della terra, il secondo invece con i suoi Unni fece tremare Roma e, a tutt’oggi, incarna il mito del barbaro violento e distruttore. Stiamo parlando di due icone che fanno parte dell’immaginario collettivo mondiale e che hanno scritto con il sangue pagine e pagine di storia sui campi di battaglia di mezzo mondo.

Tanti furono i barbari ed i condottieri che calarono furiosamente dalle sterminate lande orientali per sfidare l'Impero Romano, ma soltanto uno e' entrato nella leggenda prima ancora che nella storia: Attila, il re degli Unni.Barbaro e distruttore, Attila incarno' per anni lo stereotipo del condottiero crudele e selvaggio.

Told from multiple points of view - including those of James and Dolley Madison and a British admiral - this is the true story of the burning of the White House in 1814. It's unimaginable today, even for a generation that saw the Twin Towers fall and the Pentagon attacked.

Joshua Rubenstein's riveting account takes us back to the second half of 1952, when no one could foresee an end to Joseph Stalin's murderous regime. He was poised to challenge the newly elected US president Dwight Eisenhower with armed force and was also broadening a vicious campaign against Soviet Jews.

A United States minister, senator, president, and congressman in turn, John Quincy Adams was one of the most prevalent and dedicated Americans in history.

John Adams, one of the Founding Fathers of our nation and its second president, spent nearly the last third of his life in retirement, grappling with contradictory views of his place in history and fearing his reputation would not fare well in the generations after his death.

In this unique insider account, John H. Sununu pays tribute to his former boss - an intelligent, thoughtful, modest leader - and his overlooked accomplishments. Though George H. W.

No podían permitir que el dictador regresase a Nicaragua desde su exilio en Paraguay.

Premier Africain agrégé de grammaire, poète célébré dans le monde entier, premier président du Sénégal, académicien : Senghor a eu tous les honneurs. Accusé d'essentialisme pour avoir inventé la Négritude, d'autoritarisme pour avoir fait emprisonner ses opposants, difficile aujourd'hui de faire un portrait nuancé de Senghor tout en rendant justice à la grande actualité de sa pensée poétique et philosophique. C'est pourtant cette ligne de crête qu'emprunte Elara Bertho, loin de l'hagiographie, loin des anathèmes.

Los dos pasaron los 80 años de vida. Los dos fueron presidentes de la República Oriental del Uruguay y, por sus diferencias, son dos caras opuestas. Por sus similitudes, son una misma moneda.
