    Im Dezember 1804 kennt ganz Paris nur ein Thema: die anstehende Krönungszeremonie des Generals Napoleon Bonaparte zum Kaiser der Franzosen. Für den Krönungszug ließ Napoleon die Straßen neu pflastern und ganze Häuserzeilen abreißen, weil sie ihm im Wege standen. Militär sperrt das Terrain großräumig ab und hält das Volk auf Distanz. Die Franzosen reiben sich verwundert die Augen: So hatten sie sich die Revolution ursprünglich nicht vorgestellt; ihre Träume von Gleichheit, Freiheit und Brüderlichkeit hatten andere Ziele als einen allmächtigen neuen Kaiser.Napoleon wischt ihre Phantasien wie lästige Fliegen vom Tisch. Gegenüber einem Vertrauen äußert er: "Ich habe die Weltherrschaft gewollt, und um sie mir zu sichern, bedurfte es einer unbegrenzten Macht". Napoleon hält während der Krönung das Zepter Karls des Großen in Händen, um der Welt vor Augen zu führen, dass er das Erbe des legendären Frankenführers anzutreten bereit sei. Doch: Es war nicht das Zepter Karls des Großen. Da man das echte Zepter in der Schnelle der Zeit nicht finden konnte, griff Napoleon zu einer Kopie. Der Papst gibt dem falschen Zepter seinen Segen, und Napoleons Krönung beginnt mit einem imposanten Taschenspielertrick, auf den halb Europa hereinfällt. Es sollte nicht der letzte bleiben, denn sein ganzes Leben lang jongliert Napoleon gekonnt mit Luftblasen und Falschmeldungen.Dieses Hörbuch räumt mit den Geschichtslügen auf, die Napoleon schon zu Lebzeiten lanciert hat und zeigt das wahre Gesicht jenes eitlen Despoten, der ganz Europa demütigen und unterjochen wollte, aber letztlich am Freiheitswillen der Völker - allen voran der Preußen - gescheitert ist. Während Napoleon das durch die Revolution von 1789 ursprünglich fortschrittlich ausgerichtete Frankreich Schritt für Schritt in die Diktatur zurückführte, verwandelte sich das ehemals absolutistische Preußen nach und nach in einen modernen Staat, in dem sich patriotische Begeisterung und nationale Leidenschaft entzünden ko deutsch.

    The brutal butchers that killed and ate with no remorse.... If you're honest, we see CCTV footage of worse crimes like harassment, theft, abuse, or murder. We know all those things; what we do not concern ourselves with is the fact that there are heinous crimes in our history which were almost impossible to believe. There are serial killers at large who not only torment people, they also eat them.... Yes, this book is about cannibal serial killers. As you hear the stories of the culprits who heartlessly killed and ate people, you will gain a little background on how their minds worked. First, there's Albert who seemed to have inherited the mental illnesses his mother and other siblings had. His parents' ages were so far apart and it might have contributed to the way his genes were "arranged". Then there was the recluse Nicolas Claux from France who was obsessed with death and anything related to it. This obsession stemmed from him being alone and misguided and led to him desecrating numerous tombs and eventually killing and eating his victims. And lastly, we have the mother and son tandem that had this philosophical thought that street children were democracy's evil products. They had it ingrained in their mind that they would do the country good if they killed and ate them. Listening to their stories could be exciting, but as you browse through their tales, please remember the horrors which the victims experienced. They were probably scared out of their minds and their past most likely flashed right before their murderer delivered the final blow.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Wright.

    A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. The name "Geronimo" evokes a number of different emotions. Those who believed in 19th century America's "Manifest Destiny" viewed Geronimo and all Native Americans as impediments to God's will for the nation. Descendants of people killed by "hostile" Natives certainly considered warriors like Geronimo to be murderers and thieves whose cultures and societies held no redeeming values. Even today, many Americans associate the name Geronimo with a war cry, and the name Geronimo itself only came about because of a battle he fought against the Mexicans. Over time, however, the historical perception of the relationship between America and Native tribes changed drastically. With that, Geronimo, or Goyahkla, was viewed in a far different light. Those who empathized with the fate of the Native Americans saw Geronimo as one of a number of Native American ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Norman.
