Nazi Wives

Descripción del libro

Nazi Wives is a fascinating look at the personal lives, psychological profiles, and marriages of the wives of officers in Hitler's inner circle. Goering, Goebbels, Himmler, Heydrich, Hess, Bormann—names synonymous with power and influence in the Third Reich. Perhaps less familiar are Carin, Emmy, Magda, Margaret, Lina, Ilse and Gerda... These are the women behind the infamous men—complex individuals with distinctive personalities who were captivated by Hitler and whose everyday lives were governed by Nazi ideology. Throughout the rise and fall of Nazism these women loved and lost, raised families and quarreled with their husbands and each other, all the while jostling for position with the Fuhrer himself. Until now, they have been treated as minor characters, their significance ignored, as if they were unaware of their husbands' murderous acts, despite the evidence that was all around them: the stolen art on their walls, the slave labor in their homes, and the produce grown in concentration camps on their tables. James Wyllie's Nazi Wives explores these women in detail for the first time, skillfully interweaving their stories through years of struggle, power, decline and destruction into the post-war twilight of denial and delusion.

Archivo Gomá

En el volumen 9 (enero-marzo de 1938) de esta edición del archivo del cardenal Isidro Gomá y Tomás se recogen las últimas respuestas de la jerarquía católica a la Carta Colectiva, con la que en estos meses de 1938 se elaborará el libro titulado El mundo católico y la Carta Colectiva del Episcopado español. En la misma línea de propaganda dirigida a los ambientes católicos, se prepara el viaje de Gomá al Congreso Eucarístico de Budapest. Al mismo tiempo se intensifican los intentos para influir en la construcción del nuevo régimen, y se empiezan a manifestar conflictos.

Viajes y viajeros en el mundo antiguo

Existe poca literatura científica y divulgativa acerca de los viajes en el mundo antiguo. Los escritores de la antigüedad, al menos en las obras conservadas, raramente se ocuparon de los detalles acerca de los viajes y desplazamientos. Desde el surgir de la civilización, en Próximo Oriente Asiático y Egipto, se produjeron viajes que tuvieron motivaciones diversas: militares, comerciales, administrativas, religiosas. En Grecia los viajes por mar se convirtieron en una seña de identidad, como define el que en el propio origen de la literatura, la Odisea sea, en una buena parte, no sólo...
