Vividly capturing the heady times in the waning months of World War II, Ronald Weber follows the exploits of Allied reporters as they flooded into liberated Paris after four dark years of Nazi occupation. He traces the remarkable adventures of the men and women who lived, worked, and played in the legendary Hôtel Scribe, set in a highly fashionable part of the largely undamaged city. Press jeeps and trailers packed the street outside, while inside the hotel was completely booked with hundreds of correspondents.

Story1
The year 1815 marked the beginning of a time of repression in Europe. Napoleon Bonaparte had been defeated at Waterloo and sent to the remote South Atlantic island of Saint Helena, the torrent of blood unleashed by the French Revolution had finally run dry, and the dispossessed princes were returning to their thrones. Bourbon King Louis XVIII returned to Paris, King Ferdinand VII was restored in Madrid, and the numerous petty princes of Germany and Italy took back power in their localities.

Qu’est-ce que la nation française ? La question s’est posée à de multiples reprises au fil de l’histoire, parfois de manière très vive comme lors de la Révolution, de la perte de l’Alsace-Lorraine, du régime de Vichy et jusqu’à nos fractures contemporaines. S’agit-il d’une communauté ethnique, linguistique, territoriale, d’une organisation politique de citoyens désireux de vivre ensemble ou bien encore d’une construction historique d’un autre type ? Doit-on la faire remonter à 1789, à la bataille de Bouvines, au baptême de Clovis, voire à " nos ancêtres les Gaulois " ?

Philippe Pétain est un sujet historique qui dépasse le personnage. Jean-Yves Le Naour, historien en spécialiste de la Première Guerre mondiale et du XXe siècle, nous présente ici la biographie du maréchal Pétain mais aussi une histoire du pétainisme. L’historien se penche sur le mythe Pétain forgé durant la Première Guerre mondiale, en tant que vainqueur de Verdun, l’enracinement du mythe durant l’Entre-deux guerres, pour aboutir au chef de l’État vénéré sous Vichy, de 1940 à 1944, quand le maréchal se pose en protecteur des Français tout en collaborant activement avec l’occupant.

Public City/Public Sex

Story0
Public City/Public Sex examines how the notion that male sexual desire required suitable outlets shaped urban policing and development. Ross traces the struggle to control sex in public and argues that it was the very effort to police the city that created new opportunities for women who sold sex and men who sought sex with other men. Placing public sex at the center of urban history, Ross shows how those who used public spaces played a central role in defining the way the city was understood.

It is difficult to overemphasize the importance of the Battle of Verdun. For the French, it possesses a grim significance which endures to this day - the churned, furrowed earth of the battlefield still visible a century later a stark reminder of waste of life, strategic failure and tactical inadequacy on a monumental scale. For the German people, had it not been eclipsed by the shame and horror of Nazism and the Holocaust, it would doubtless carry equal importance.

"Paris est désormais au peuple. Tout chaviré. Aiguisé. Se baignant aux fontaines. La nuit est tombée. De petits groupes marchent sur les barrières. Ce sont des bandes d'ouvriers, de menuisiers, de tailleurs, gens ordinaires, mais aussi des porte-faix, des sans-emplois, des argotiers, sortis tout droit de leur échoppe ou du port au Bled. Et dans la nuit de la grande ville, il y eut alors une étincelle, cri de mica. L'octroi fut incendié. Puis un autre. Encore un autre. Les barrières brûlaient."

To this day Marie Antoinette remains one of history’s most misunderstood heroines. How she triumphed over the petty jealousies and backstairs rivalries of the court, how she sustained a good-hearted but malleable king, and how she was transformed from French queen to Austrian “whore,” is the story told with skill and fascinating detail.

Known as one of the deadliest battles in history with its over one million casualties, the Battle of the Somme in 1916 is regarded by many as the ultimate war of attrition. Intended to bring about a swift end to the First World War, the British planned a grueling five-day bombardment of German forces, only to be thwarted at seemingly every turn. Bad weather, poor communication, inferior planning, hubris, and even betrayal led to the Battle of the Somme lasting longer than anyone had anticipated.
