Story
Charles Hapgood's classic 1966 book on ancient maps is back. Hapgood produces concrete evidence of an advanced worldwide civilization existing many thousands of years before ancient Egypt. He has found the evidence in many beautiful maps long known to scholars, the Piri Reis Map that shows Antarctica, the Hadji Ahmed map, the Oronteus Finaeus and other amazing maps. Hapgood concluded that these maps were made from more ancient maps from the various ancient archives around the world, now lost.

Story
We take time for granted as it passes during every moment of our existence. Other things may change, but time remains constant and predictable. The past, the present, and the future exist within a harmonious, reliable, and never-changing system. Or at least that’s how it seems… It was Albert Einstein who, in 1905, first theorized that time might not be quite as straightforward as that.

Story
Nessun personaggio storico, se si esclude, forse, Adolf Hitler, ha mai goduto di così cattiva stampa come Nerone. Alcuni autori cristiani ritennero che fosse addirittura l’Anticristo. In realtà, Nerone fu un grandissimo uomo di Stato. Durante i quattordici anni del suo regno l’Impero conobbe un periodo di pace, di prosperità, di dinamismo economico e culturale quale non ebbe mai né prima né dopo di lui.

Cléopâtre est la plus célèbre des reines de l’Antiquité et l’objet de tous les fantasmes : femme fatale, Égyptienne avide et cruelle, maîtresse et épouse des hommes les plus puissants de Rome... Elle fut en réalité la reine grecque d’un royaume prestigieux, dernier vestige de l’empire d’Alexandre le Grand. Avec un regard critique, utilisant textes, inscriptions, images et monnaies, Maurice Sartre écarte les mythes, brise les idées reçues et brosse le juste portrait d’une souveraine lucide et volontaire.

Épictète est né dans la servitude. Il est boiteux, dort sur une paillasse, et pourtant c'est l'homme le plus libre de Rome. On le dit même plus heureux que l'Empereur... Au soir de sa vie, Leibniz, génie universel, avait achevé de décrire l'univers. Mais aux yeux de son jeune ami Théodore, la question du mal restait incompréhensible : pourquoi les hommes peuvent-ils commettre de si grands crimes ? Répondre à cette question, c'était plonger dans la pensée même de Dieu...
