On 25 December 1943, the German battlecruiser Scharnhorst slipped out Altenfjord in Norway to attack Arctic convoy JW55B which was carrying vital war supplies to the Soviet Union. But British naval intelligence knew of the Scharnhorst's mission before she sailed and the vulnerable convoy was protected by a large Royal Naval force, including the battleship Duke of York. In effect the Scharnhorst was sailing into a trap. One of the most compelling naval dramas of the Second World War had begun.

Hermann Göring und Josef Goebbels waren zwei der bedeutendsten Akteure im nationalsozialistischen Regime. Beide gehörten zu den frühesten Anhänger Adolf Hitlers und stiegen in die höchsten Ränge der NSDAP und der Regierung des Dritten Reichs auf. Hermann Göring wurde im Ersten Weltkrieg als Fliegerheld gefeiert, aber seine militärische Karriere endete 1918 abrupt. In Hitlers Bewegung sah der eitle Selbstdarsteller eine Chance, ein neues, abenteuerliches, gewissermaßen heldisches Leben führen zu können.

Der Kampf um Freiheit in Ostdeutschland – Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuks kompromisslose Analyse. 1989/90 erlitt Ostdeutschland einen "Freiheitsschock", das ist die Grundthese dieses Hörbuches. Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk erzählt die Geschichte Ostdeutschlands seit 1990 als Kampf um die Freiheit – ein Kampf, dessen Ausgang richtungsweisend ist für die Zukunft ganz Deutschlands. Er will aufrütteln: zu mehr aktiver Eigenverantwortung, zu einer Abkehr von der eigenen Opferrolle und zu einem Blick auf die Geschichte, bei dem die DDR nicht immer schöner wird, je länger sie her ist.

In Kaput, Wolfgang Münchau argues that the weaknesses of Germany's economy have, in fact, been brewing for decades. The neo-mercantilist policies of the German state, driven by close connections between the country's industrial and political elite, have left Germany technologically behind over-reliant on authoritarian Russia and China—and with little sign of being able to adapt to the digital realities of the 21st century. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the future of Europe's biggest economy.

Joe Dunthorne had always wanted to write about his great-grandfather, Siegfried: an eccentric scientist who invented radioactive toothpaste and a Jewish refugee from the Nazis who returned to Germany under cover of the Berlin Olympics to pull off a heist on his own home. The only problem was that Siegfried had already written the book of his life – an unpublished, two-thousand page memoir so dry and rambling that none of his living descendants had managed to read it. And, as it turned out when Joe finally read the manuscript, it told a very different story from the one he thought he knew.

An unprecedented examination of the ways in which the uninhibited urban sexuality, sexual experimentation, and medical advances of pre-Weimar Berlin created and molded our modern understanding of sexual orientation and gay identity.

Il suo peggior nemico: il libero pensiero. La sua arma più terribile: l'"Auschwitz delle coscienze", l'annientamento della persona con la violenza psicologica e l'isolamento in carcere. Esercito invisibile al servizio di un regime in guerra col proprio popolo, la Stasi è passata alla storia per l'efficienza operativa e l'ansia paranoica di controllo totale della vita di milioni di cittadini inermi. L'apertura degli archivi riservati permette oggi di guardare oltre il mito e ricostruire l'anatomia di uno dei più impenetrabili protagonisti della Guerra fredda.

Einleitung - Die unsichtbaren Mauern. Stell dir vor, du wachst in einem Land auf, das gerade einen der monumentalsten Momente seiner Geschichte erlebt hat. Es ist der 9. November 1989, und du stehst vor der Berliner Mauer, die plötzlich ihre unüberwindbare Macht verloren hat. Menschen klettern über die Mauer, tanzen auf ihr, umarmen sich und feiern das Ende einer fast drei Jahrzehnte währenden Trennung. Doch obwohl die Mauer in dieser Nacht gefallen ist, sind die Spuren der Trennung und die Narben der Teilung in den Herzen und Köpfen der Menschen geblieben.

Decades after the end of World War II, the name Ravensbrück still evokes horror in the minds of those who know about this infamous all-women’s concentration camp. Particularly shocking was the discovery that sometimes-lethal medical experiments were performed on some of the inmates. Ravensbrück was atypical in other ways as well, not just as the only all-female German concentration camp, but because 80% of them were political prisoners. Among them was a tight-knit group of women who had been active in the French Resistance.

Eine Darstellung der untergehenden Weimarer Republik, wie es sie seit langem nicht gegeben hat. In einem packenden Panorama schildert Jens Bisky, gedankensprühend und geschichtensatt, die Jahre, in denen sich das Schicksal Deutschlands entschied. Als im Oktober 1929 Gustav Stresemann, der erfolgreiche Außenminister, starb, fragten sich die Zeitgenossen, wie es nun mit der Republik weitergeht. Gerade formierte sich eine faschistische Koalition, die 1933 dann an die Macht kam; Bauern warfen Bomben, die öffentlichen Haushalte litten unter wachsenden Defiziten, bald schien das parlamentarische System gelähmt.

Four days after Germany's surrender in May 1945, a young British officer took a jeep and headed east into Germany. But this was no ordinary soldier. Manfred Gans was searching for his family. As a Jewish boy in Nazi Germany, Gans had fled to England. As soon as he could, he signed up to fight, serving in the legendary British 'Three Troop', an elite unit made up of German-speaking refugees, and joining in the D-Day Normandy landings. Working undercover, he obtained vital intelligence, helped liberate occupied France and the Netherlands, and saved countless lives on both sides of the front.

By recovering what the people themselves felt and believed, Summer of Blood reconstructs the thrilling, tragic story of the peasants' fight to change the world.
