Story
Bis heute gilt die für Spionage in der Bundesrepublik zuständige Abteilung der DDR-Staatssicherheit, die HVA, als einer der besten Auslandsgeheimdienste seiner Zeit. Von ehemaligen Mitarbeitern wird dieses Bild sorgfältig gepflegt. Unabhängig überprüfen ließ es sich bislang nicht, da fast alle einschlägigen Unterlagen vernichtet wurden. Doch nun muss die Geschichte des deutsch-deutschen Geheimdienstkrieges neu geschrieben werden.

Story
Co nás učí v dějepise, je jen špička ledovce. To podstatné se odehrává uvnitř. Roman Cílek, zkušený autor literatury faktu a neotřelých detektivek se ve svých knihách snaží nahlédnout pod povrch známých událostí a přináší nečekané souvislosti. Kdo tahal za nitky, když v roce 1933 stál Hitler před branami Berlína? Kdo stál za vzestupem muže, jenž byl ztělesněním zla? Byla to jeho osudová žena? A proč si Mussolini myslel, že je Habeš jeho? Ani pokus o vymazání Československa z mapy nechybí.

Story
Aus vielen deutschen Regionen gibt es düstere Sagen. Diese Legenden sind manchmal gruselig, häufig grausam und immer spannend. Wie zum Beispiel die Sage von der Nixe aus der Saale, die jedes Jahr an einem bestimmten Tag ihr Opfer haben will. Im Allgäu stehen in einem abgeschiedenen Waldstück hunderte hölzerne Kreuze - warum? Und in Brandenburg erinnert ein Baum an eine grausame Hexenverbrennung.

Story
Warum die BRD nicht ohne die DDR zu verstehen ist – und umgekehrt. Ursula Weidenfeld legt eine Geschichte des doppelten Deutschland vor, wie sie so noch nicht geschrieben wurde. Bisher gibt es, zumindest in der westdeutschen Erinnerung, die Bundesrepublik (oder ganz einfach: »Deutschland«) und daneben die DDR, üblicherweise als der »zweite deutsche Staat« bezeichnet. Deren Geschichte wird immer von hinten erzählt, vom Ende her – das ist die übliche Strafe für gescheiterte Staaten.

Story
The story of the Nazi hierarch who saved his own life at the Nuremberg trial. Despite his direct responsibility for the death of millions of slave workers and prisoners of war, Albert Speer miraculously avoided the hanging sentence that his Nazi colleagues on trial in Nuremberg did receive. Albert Speer was the only Nazi who showed any kind of repentance and accepted shared responsibility for the atrocities committed during the Nazi regime. Speer was sentenced to "only" 20 years in prison in Spandau prison, a sentence that he served in its entirety until the last day.

Story
Der Großvater erzählt dem Enkel vom Krieg - so wie er ihn erlebt hat - ohne Umschweife und verklärten Pathos. Die Fehler der Herrschenden werden stets von den einfachen Leuten mit Blut bezahlt. Das war schon zu allen Zeiten so. Nicht anders erging es einem steirischen Bergbauernsohn, der, in der Blüte seiner Jugend stehend, in den Fleischwolf der Ostfront geschmissen wurde. Das in einer Phase, wo der Krieg für das Dritte Reich so gut wie verloren war. Im Greisenalter erinnert sich der Bergbauernsohn an jene dunklen Stunden zurück, die ihn Zeit seines Lebens verfolgt haben.

On September 5, 1972, eight Palestinian terrorists belonging to the Black September faction of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) entered the Olympic Village in Munich, West Germany, and took 11 Israeli athletes and team members hostage. After a lengthy standoff and a bungled rescue operation, all 11 were killed. While today, Israel is one of the most divisive political subjects across the world, the Munich Massacre and the Israeli operations in response all came about entirely because of the emotional power inherent in the Israeli-Arab conflict.

Günter Guillaume war ganz nah dran an Willi Brandt. Als der DDR-Agent enttarnt wurde, trat der Kanzler zurück - es war die größte Spionageaffäre der deutschen Geschichte. Doch Guillaume war nur die Spitze des Eisbergs, es gab Tausende Stasi-Spitzel, die aus dem "Operationsgebiet" BRD berichteten. Über Jahre hinweg streuten sie aktiv Fehlinformationen, um die BRD-Regierungen und führende Persönlichkeiten zu diffamieren. Heribert Schwan hat über 80.000 Seiten Stasi-Akten gesichtet, um die Ausmaße der DDR-Spionage im Westen nachzuvollziehen.

After Nuremberg is about the fleeting nature of American punishment for German war criminals convicted at the twelve Nuremberg trials of 1946-1949. Because of repeated American grants of clemency and parole, ninety-seven of the 142 Germans convicted at the Nuremberg trials, many of them major offenders, regained their freedom years, sometimes decades, ahead of schedule. High-ranking Nazi plunderers, kidnappers, slave laborers, and mass murderers all walked free by 1958.

A presence in Third Reich cinema, Adolf Hitler also personally financed, ordered, and censored films and newsreels and engaged in complex relationships with their stars and directors. Here, Bill Niven offers a powerful argument for reconsidering Hitler's fascination with film as a means to further the Nazi agenda. In this first English-language work to fully explore Hitler's influence on and relationship with film in Nazi Germany, the author calls on a broad array of archival sources. Niven also explores Hitler's representation in Third Reich cinema, personally and through films focusing on historical figures with whom he was associated

Story
After Prussia was victorious in the Austro-Prussian War, Bismarck played a waiting game where the unification of Germany was concerned, as the joining of the southern states - initially resistant to Prussian rule, friendly with Austria, and bent on independence - would have to be overcome. What was needed was “a clear case of French aggression” toward either Prussia or the southern states. Not only would such a move by Emperor Napoleon III trigger the terms of the treaty between the German states, but it would keep the remaining world powers out of the conflict.

Geliebt, gehasst, umstritten: Franz Josef Strauß erscheint auch mehr als 30 Jahre nach seinem Tod noch als überlebensgroße und extrem kontroverse Persönlichkeit. Sein Sohn Franz Georg erzählt, wie der Bundesminister und bayerische Ministerpräsident wirklich war und wie er Politik machte, zu Hause und in der Welt. Nicht ohne Selbstironie berichtet er von seinen ganz persönlichen Erfahrungen mit dem Übervater, den er schon früh auf Auslandsreisen, u.a. nach Moskau und Israel, begleiten durfte.

Story
Centuries ago in middle Europe, a coded language appeared, scrawled in graffiti and spoken only by people in the know. This hybrid language, dubbed Rotwelsch, facilitated survival for people in flight - whether escaping persecution or just down on their luck. It was a language of the road associated with vagabonds, travelers, Jews, and thieves that blended words from Yiddish, Hebrew, German, Romani, Czech, and other European languages and was rich in expressions for police, jail, or experiencing trouble, such as being in a pickle. This renegade language unsettled those in power.
