Story
"Blauzahn", "Blutaxt" oder "Schönhaar" - die Beinamen der frühen Könige des Nordens sind so fantasievoll wie die Überlieferung ihrer Taten. Die Skalden vermischen in ihren Sagas Dichtung und Geschichtsschreibung zu einem Amalgam. Erst Knut der Große tritt aus dem Nebel der Sage und nimmt konkrete historische Konturen an. Der Däne schmiedet ein Imperium aus England, Dänemark, Norwegen und Schweden. Er ist ein maßvoller Herrscher mit Ambitionen: Angelsachsen und Wikinger sollen im Zeichen des Kreuzes zusammenwachsen. Knuts Vision steht auf tönernen Füßen.

Story
Von Kämpfen, Eroberungen und Neuanfängen: G/Geschichte taucht in dieser Ausgabe ein in die Zeit des Ersten Kreuzzugs, in der ein christliches Heer aus Kreuzrittern sich aufmachte, Palästina einzunehmen, was 1099 mit der brutalen Einnahme Jerusalems endete. Aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln wird gezeigt, wie aus religiösem Fanatismus, Machthunger, aber auch einer Prise Idealismus eine neue Welt entstand.

Story
Die keltische Kultur erlebte viele Hochs und Tiefs. Auf die erste Hochphase im 7. Jh. v. Chr. folgte der Untergang, doch die Kelten richteten sich im 2. Jh. v. Chr. wieder auf, bis Julius Cäsar Gallien eroberte und die Kultur erneut erstarb. Erst nach ihrer dritten Blütezeit auf den Britischen Inseln waren die Kelten ein für allemal besiegt. Doch gerade ihre Niederlagen machen die Kelten nicht nur bei Asterix-Lesern und Druiden-Fans beliebt - es gibt so viel mehr zu erfahren über diese faszinierende, vergangene Zivilisation!

G/Geschichte widmet sich in dieser Ausgabe dem großen Karl: Ob mächtiger Herrscher und Kaiser, furchtloser Kriegsherr oder Diplomat, Karl der Große wird so schnell nicht in eine Schublade gesteckt. Wie immer bei G/Geschichte wird sich dem Titelthema hier auf vielfältige Weise genähert - man erfährt nicht nur, warum Aachen die kaiserliche Lieblingsresidenz war oder was es mit dem Rolandslied auf sich hat, sondern es wird sich auch auf Spurensuche in Hinblick auf den Charakter Karls des Großen begeben.

Story
Wussten Sie, dass Miguel de Cervantes fünf Jahre lang als Sklave in Nordafrika vegetierte, bevor er seinen weltberühmten Romanhelden Don Quijote gegen Windmühlen kämpfen ließ? Dass er nur einer von rund 3,7 Millionen Europäern war, die in der Neuzeit, also seit 1500, versklavt wurden? Dass weite Küstenabschnitte in Italien menschenleer waren, weil die Bewohner aus Angst vor den Sklavenjägern ihre Dörfer am Meer verließen? Das millionenfache Leid der "weißen Sklaven" – den Begriff prägte der US-Senator und Anti-Sklaverei-Kämpfer Charles Sumner 1847 – ist heute weitgehend vergessen.

Story
Der Sturm kommt aus Afrika. In nur wenigen Jahren erobern die Mauren, ein Völkergemisch aus Arabern und Berbern, fast die gesamte Iberische Halbinsel. Nur im kargen Norden Spaniens leisten die Menschen von Asturien erfolgreich Gegenwehr. Die Widerstandsnester sind die Keimzellen der späteren Königreiche Kastilien und León. Während Córdoba mit seinen Palästen, Bädern und Bibliotheken erblüht, baut man im Norden Burgen und Kathedralen. Zum Schutzpatron des Kampfes gegen die Muslime avanciert der Apostel Jakobus, der jetzt unter dem Kampfnamen "Matamoros" verehrt wird – der Maurentöter.

Story
Grausamkeit und Toleranz sind Begriffe, die in heutiger Zeit nicht recht zusammenpassen. Jedenfalls rühmen sich unsere westlichen Regierungen gerne ihrer Menschlichkeit und Toleranz, während mehr oder weniger feindlich gesinnte Autokratien wegen ihrer Grausamkeit und Intoleranz verurteilt werden. Die Begriffspaare anders zu kombinieren, ist definitiv nicht üblich. Oder kennen Sie ein Regime, das etwa als menschlich und intolerant tituliert wird? Manche Aspekte der Hunnen erscheinen uns vielleicht auch deswegen so fremd.

"Für die "Integrationsbeauftragten" König Nebukadnezars II. müssen die deportierten Israeliten ein Albtraum gewesen sein. Da hatte man sie aus ihrem muffigen Provinzleben im kargen Bergland von Judäa ins quirlige, lebensstrotzende Babylon geholt, wo sich ihnen alle Chancen eines Weltreiches eröffneten, und was taten sie? Sie "saßen an den Flüssen von Babylon und weinten"!" Diese Sätze schrieb unser Gründer und Herausgeber Dr. Franz Metzger vor 15 Jahren, und sie lesen sich heute so aktuell wie damals.

Wie viele Literatenhäuser stellt Lawrences Refugium "Clouds Hill" im südenglischen Bovington ein Abbild seiner Seele dar. Die einstige Bauernkate ist äußerst schlicht eingerichtet, aber die Bibliothek und Schallplattensammlung zeugen von dem intellektuellen Universum, das Lawrence war: Homer, Dante, Cervantes, Mozart, Beethoven und Elgar. Dann in einer Ecke rostige Fragmente von Schienen. Es sind Reliquien der Hedschasbahn von Aleppo nach Medina – Erinnerungen an seinen Guerillakrieg in der Wüste gegen die Türken. Lawrences militärische Karriere ist außergewöhnlich.

In dieser Ausgabe von G/Geschichte dreht sich alles um das Leben im Mittelalter: Schweine suhlen sich vor den Häusern, und von den Werkstätten der Gerber breitet sich ein infernalischer Gestank aus. Arme, Bettler und zuweilen Lepröse bevölkern die Gassen. Vor den Mauern verwesen die Körper der Gehenkten. Die Stadt ist kein romantischer Ort, aber sie verspricht eine Chance auf Freiheit von den Ketten der Leibeigenschaft.

Story
"Es ist das große Turnier Himmel gegen Hölle", singt ein Troubadour Mitte des 12. Jahrhunderts über die Kreuzzüge. Wer den Konflikt mit den Augen der Gegenwart betrachtet, wird Schwierigkeiten haben, das Phänomen der Templer zu verstehen. Männer aus der aristokratischen Oberschicht verzichten auf Privilegien, Frauen und Freuden, um ein asketisches Leben zu führen. Als Ritter und Mönch in einer Person verkörpert der Templer die beiden prägenden Ideale des Mittelalters. "Denn nicht ohne Grund trägt er das Schwert; er steht im Dienst Gottes", schwärmt der heilige Bernhard von Clairvaux.

Familienkriege sind nichts Ungewöhnliches. Die meisten von uns können wohl von einem in der eigenen Verwandtschaft berichten, insbesondere wenn es ein Erbe zu verteilen gibt. Die fränkischen Merowinger treiben den Zwist allerdings auf eine Spitze, die außergewöhnlich ist, selbst für das wenig zimperliche Mittelalter. Der "Merowingische Bruderkrieg", wie Historiker das innerfamiliäre Gemetzel und Gemeuchel ab 561 n. Chr. nennen, ist als Begriff aber etwas irreführend.

Die zahme kleine Schwester der Nordsee – das ist für Viele die Ostsee. Ein Vorurteil, wenn man sich anschaut, was es in der Geschichte zu entdecken gibt: Die Wikinger. Die weitverzweigte Hanse. Die großen Kämpfe zwischen den sich konsolidierenden Staaten der frühen Neuzeit. Die Abgründe des 20. Jahrhunderts. Aber auch, angelockt von der Landschaft, die Künstler auf der Suche nach Inspiration. Und die Urlauber auf Erholungssuche. Wasser trennt nicht, es verbindet. Ständig waren Menschen auf diesem Meer unterwegs. Ihre Motive? Satt werden. Reich werden. Mehr Macht bekommen. Neues entdecken. Da musste doch noch was sein, jenseits des Horizonts!

"Ein anderer hätte sich erschossen, ich ging in die Fremdenlegion", schreibt 1905 Erwin Rosen. Der Schriftsteller liebt das lockere Leben und hat enorme Schulden gemacht. Der Dienst in Algerien ist die Hölle. Rosen desertiert und kann nach Tirol fliehen. Auch wenn Hollywood Liebeskummer oder Abenteuerlust als Motive bevorzugt, in den fast 200 Jahren ihres Bestehens marschieren vor allem Gestrauchelte und Männer ohne Perspektive in den Reihen der Fremdenlegion.

Beeindruckend an den Maya-Pyramiden ist, wie steil sie sind. In Chichén Itzá und Uxmal die Stufen von oben herabzublicken, verursacht leicht ein flaues Gefühl. Was ging in den Menschen vor, als sie damals solche Treppen über das Dach des Dschungels hinaus in den Himmel bauten? Die Pyramidenstufen sind wie ein Sinnbild für die Zivilisation der Maya: ihren steilen Aufstieg, ihren noch steileren Abstieg.

»Der vergängliche Ruhm der Herrschaft« ist ein cineastisches Juwel des portugiesischen Regisseurs Manoel de Oliveira. Der Film spielt irgendwo in Afrika, wo ein Trupp Soldaten im Dschungel gegen die einheimischen Rebellen kämpfen muss. Die jungen Männer sind voller Fragen nach den Ursprüngen der kolonialen Kriege. Sie haben Glück. Ihr tiefgründiger Offizier ist Historiker und vermittelt ihnen in lebendigen Bildern die Geschichte ihrer Nation und die Geburt des portugiesischen Weltreiches. Sein Fazit: Alle Herrschaft ist hohl und langfristig zum Scheitern verdammt.

Fast hätte J. R. R. Tolkien den Ersten Weltkrieg nicht überlebt. Einzig die Tatsache, dass er 1916 am sogenannten Grabenfieber erkrankte und in der Folge nach England zurückgeschickt wurde, rettete ihm wohl das Leben. Tolkien sehnte sich nach seinen Erlebnissen im Ersten Weltkrieg wohl nach Ruhe. Als Professor für englische Philologie in Oxford lebte er zurückgezogen, verreiste selten und rauchte gerne Pfeife – wie die von ihm geschaffenen Hobbits. Tolkien liebte die nordische Mythologie.

An NATO und Warschauer Pakt erinnert die Konstellation zwischen Attischem Seebund und Peloponnesischem Bund: Hier eine Organisation demokratischer Staaten, die sich über ein Meer spannt, dort eine Allianz autokratischer Staaten, die weitgehend einen Block auf dem Land bildet. Beide Vereinigungen werden von einer einzelnen Supermacht dominiert, die ihr politisches System überall durchsetzen will – auch mit robusten Methoden. Die Konfrontation endet zum Glück anders: Nach dem modernen Kalten Krieg triumphierten die Demokratien.

Die Bronzestatue einer abgemagerten, in Lumpen gehüllten Frau, die sich mit hohlem Blick an ihre wenigen Habseligkeiten klammert, bildet zusammen mit fünf weiteren lebensgroßen Figuren das "Famine Memorial" (Hungerdenkmal) nahe dem Stadtzentrum Dublins. Das 1997 errichtete Mahnmal erinnert an eine Zeit, die den Iren bis heute präsent ist: die Hungerkatastrophe von 1845 bis 1849, die geschätzt einer Million Menschen das Leben kostete und das Verhältnis zu England wohl endgültig zerrüttete. Denn die Regierung in London sah dem Massensterben ihrer irischen Staatsangehörigen weitgehend untätig zu.

Shari Franke’s childhood was a constant battle for survival. Her mother, Ruby Franke, enforced a severe moral code while maintaining a façade of a picture-perfect family for their wildly popular YouTube channel 8 Passengers, which documented the day-to-day life of raising six children for a staggering 2.5 million subscribers. But a darker truth lurked beneath the surface—Ruby’s wholesome online persona masked a more tyrannical parenting style than anyone could have imagined.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College-Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

She's immediately mistaken by everyone in the lobby for one of the wedding people, but she’s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn’t here for the big event. Phoebe is here because she’s dreamed of coming for years—she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she’s here without him, at rock bottom, and determined to have one last decadent splurge on herself.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.
