Publisher's Summary
In seinem autobiographischen Zeitgemälde blickt Stefan Zweig zurück in eine Welt voller Kultur und Optimismus. Hier sind davon die 14/15 Jahre zwischen Weltkriegsende und Machtergreifung der Nazis zu hören. Seine Rückkehr nach Österreich, das Erlebnis der Armut, die bizarren Auswirkungen der Inflation, (sehr pointiert und komödiantisch beschrieben), das Wiederanknüpfen an die alte Welt, die ersten Auftritte von Faschisten und Nazis, der Enthusiasmus der Bürger in der jungen Sowjetunion, sein Erfolg als Schriftsteller und zum Schluss unausweichbar: Hitler. Zweig lässt uns auch in seine Schreibtechnik mit "reinhören" und erklärt mit berechtigtem Selbstbewusstsein, warum er ein so ausgezeichneter und beliebter Autor war und ist (ebenso pointiert und anekdotenhaft).
In deiner Audible-Bibliothek findest du für dieses Hörerlebnis eine PDF-Datei mit zusätzlichem Material.

Story
Stefan Zweig's memoir, The World of Yesterday, recalls the golden age of prewar Europe - its seeming permanence, its promise and its devastating fall with the onset of two world wars. Zweig's passionate, evocative prose paints a stunning portrait of an era that danced brilliantly on the brink of extinction. It is an unusually humane account of Europe from the closing years of the 19th century through to World War II, seen through the eyes of one of the most famous writers of his era.

Story
In the twilight of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a young cavalry officer is invited to a dance at the home of a rich landowner. There - with a small act of attempted charity - he commits a simple faux pas. But from this seemingly insignificant blunder comes a tale of catastrophe arising from kindness and of honour poisoned by self-regard. Beware of Pity has all the intensity and the formidable sense of torment and of character of the very best of Zweig's work. Definitive translation by the award-winning Anthea Bell.

Story
Publicada en 1929, "Fouché, el genio tenebroso", es una de las mayores obras maestras de Stefan Zweig. Una obra apasionante e hipnótica, que no deja indiferente a nadie. Joseph Fouché (1759 - 1820) fue uno de los personajes más controvertidos de la Revolución Francesa. Hipócrita, tenebroso y maquiavélico, votó a favor de la muerte de Luis XVI y María Antonieta y fue responsable de sangrientas represalias. Luego, sintiéndose amenazado por Robespierre, participó activamente en la conspiración termidoriana.

Story
In this book, Stefan Zweig traces 12 fateful events of world history in his unique artistic style: from the conquest of the Byzantine capital of Constantinople by the Turks, to the Battle of Waterloo to Sir Robert Falcon Scott's tragic South Pole expedition. The human character and sometimes simple fate are decisive historic factors that have led to dramatic and lasting changes in the past. Often short, coincidental and highly dramatic moments have the potential to change the future of mankind in a decisive manner – the so called "Great Moments of Humanity".

Story
Un amour total, passionnel, désintéressé, tapi dans l'ombre, n'attendant rien en retour que de pouvoir le confesser. Une blessure vive, la perte d'un enfant, symbole de cet amour que le temps n'a su effacer ni entamer. L'être aimé objet d'une admiration infinie mais lucide. Une déclaration fanatique, fiévreuse, pleine de tendresse et de folie.

Story
With the age of voyages of discovery in the 15th century, the curtain of history slowly came down on the late Middle Ages. Portuguese and Spanish seafarers set out to remeasure the dimensions of the earth. Numerous spices and fruits, which we would hardly be able to do without today, found their way to Europe for the first time. Columbus discovered America in 1492 on his quest for India. Six years later, it was left to Vasco da Gama to travel through the sea route to India sought by Columbus on the eastern route around Africa.

Story
Le Monde d'hier est l'un des plus grands livres-témoignages de notre époque. Zweig y retrace l'évolution de l'Europe de 1895 à 1941, le destin d'une génération entière d'hommes confrontés plus brutalement que d'autres à l'Histoire et à toutes les "catastrophes imaginables". Chroniqueur de l'Âge d'or européen, Zweig évoque avec bonheur sa vie de bourgeois privilégié dans la Vienne d'avant 1914 et quelques grandes figures qui furent ses amis : Schnitzler, Rilke, Rolland, Freud ou Valéry.

Story
The conquest of Constantinople in 1453 by a besieging army of around 80,000 men led by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II ended the Byzantine Empire. The city's defense was in the hands of Emperor Constantine XI, who had 7,000 to 10,000 soldiers at his disposal and, likely, fell during the last storm on the city. The fall of the Byzantine Empire also marked the final rise of the Ottoman Empire to become a major power. The conquest has a high symbolic value in both Turkish and Western European reception.

Stefan Zweig schildert das Leben Marie Antoinettes von ihrer Kindheit in Österreich bis zu ihrer letzten Nacht in Versailles in Frankreich. Einfühlsame und detaillierte Beschreibungen zeigen die "Königin des Rokokos" als sorglos-heitere junge Frau, die auf unzähligen durchtanzten Maskenbällen alle Pflichten einer Königin vergisst. "Wo aber die an den Augenschein streng gebundene Forschung endet, beginnt die freie und beschwingte Kunst der Seelenschau.

Story
Joseph Fouché (1759-1820) est l'une des figures les plus énigmatiques de son temps. Il a servi avec zèle la République, le Directoire, le Consulat, l'Empire et la Monarchie. Homme de l'ombre, disciple de Machiavel, Fouché aura survécu à tous les changements de régime sans jamais se départir de cette "absence de conviction" qui fascina Balzac autant que Stefan Zweig. Élève chez les Oratoriens, il devint sous la Révolution un pilleur d'églises. Conventionnel modéré, il vota la mort du roi et participa activement au massacre des Lyonnais royalistes.

Stefan Zweig reiste in den 30er Jahren mehrfach nach Südamerika, begeisterte sich für Kultur und Lebensart der Brasilianer und schrieb einen Klassiker der Reiseliteratur: "Brasilien. Land der Zukunft". In brillantem Stil erzählt er anschaulich von portugiesischen Abenteurern, begeisterten Missionaren und gierigen Goldgräbern. Später geht es dann um Kaiser, Kaffee und Kautschuk. Die Schattenseite der Entwicklung: Sklaverei.

Story
Da novellen Amokløper/Amok utkom i 1922, var begrepet ”amok” fremdeles et ukjent begrep. Zweig lånte det fra indonesisk kultur, hvor det beskriver en tilstand der en person angriper en fiende i blindt raseri og forsøker å drepe både fienden og alle andre som står i veien. Som mange av Zweigs verker har Amok/Amokløper en psykologisk bakgrunn. Den handler om en leges ekstreme besettelse og forfølgelse av en kvinne som er blitt gravid utenfor ekteskapet og som nå vil ha legen til å utføre en abort.

Story
Stefan Zweig dedicated this largely biographical work to the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud. Zweig acknowledges Freud's scientific contributions and highlights some weaknesses of his fellow countryman. Freud's actual achievement is less to be found in scientific detail, but in the multitude of his contributions with which he enabled and inspired the thinking, rethinking and research of many of his successors. Zweig describes the life of Freud and the genesis of psychoanalysis with his usual linguistic virtuosity.

Story
Le cynisme de la boutade aura beaucoup fait pour la fâcheuse réputation de Marie-Antoinette. Des Parisiens affamés, elle aurait dit : "Ils n'ont pas de pain ? Qu'ils mangent de la brioche !" Mot très certainement apocryphe, mais révélateur du portrait de femme futile et débauchée qui fut fait de l'"Autrichienne" après la Révolution.
