Beijing, May 30, 1626 – 9:30 AM. A cataclysmic explosion tore through the Ming capital, levelling half the city and leaving nearly 20,000 dead or wounded. Its force rivalled Hiroshima’s atomic blast—yet its cause remains one of history’s great mysteries. Was it an act of nature? A man-made disaster? Divine retribution? Or something far more sinister? The Emperor’s reign is named "Tianqi"—literally, Heavenly Awakening. Yet when Western missionaries translate it, they choose a darker word: Apocalypse. Was it a mere coincidence? Or did it conceal a far greater conspiracy? In the ...

Many of the animals we encounter in everyday life, from pets and farm animals to the wild creatures of field and forest, have remained the same since medieval times. But the words used to name and describe them have often changed beyond recognition, starting with the Old English word for “animal” itself, deor (pronounced DAY-or). In The Deorhord, Hana Videen presents a glittering Old English bestiary of animals real and imaginary, big and small, ordinary and extraordinary—the good, the bad, and the downright baffling.

When the SaLeen conquered Earth, I’d been running an automotive mechanic shop. While I'd have fought tooth and nail to defend my home, their advanced technology defeated us with ease.

President George H. W. Bush (“Bush 41”) was a one-term president who some detractors believed lacked the charisma, vision, and political skill of his predecessor, Ronald Reagan. Consequently, Bush’s domestic record was mixed; it was worsened when he broke his “no new taxes” pledge. Yet Bush exercised his constitutional powers in the realm of foreign policy with strength and decisiveness, driving Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein from Kuwait.

Stiamo barattando l'empatia, la solidarietà, la stessa capacità di pensare e di raccontare la nostra esistenza con un eterno presente sovraccarico di informazioni disorientanti, ansie da prestazione, solitudine. Eppure ci sono ancora spazi d'azione e pensiero, altri modi di vivere. E a innervarli è la forza della speranza. Una forza che non si esplica nell'attesa, ma apre la strada alla rivoluzione. Attraverso un confronto - un vero e proprio corpo a corpo - con alcuni dei maggiori pensatori del Novecento, Byung-Chul Han traccia una topografia di questo concetto e del suo potere salvifico.
