Story
Drei Mailänder Verlagslektoren geraten zufällig an eine Geheimbotschaft des legendenumwitterten Templerordens. Sie machen sich an die Entzifferung, bauen aus zahllosen Elementen ein gigantisches Puzzle, erfinden selbst einen Plan, der zu nichts Geringerem führen soll als zur Beherrschung der Welt. Nicht nur die Templer – so scheint es – haben sich mit dem Plan beschäftigt, sondern sämtliche Geheimgesellschaften der Welt, von den Rosenkreuzern bis hin zu den Freimaurern. Die Weltgeschichte wird von den drei Zauberlehrlingen umgeschrieben.

Story
"Se cercassi di mostrare che questo libro ha una fisionomia unitaria ed è stato pensato come un discorso omogeneo, cercherei di arrampicarmi su quegli specchi a cui esso, per pura sineddoche, si intitola." "Sugli specchi e altri saggi" è, infatti, una raccolta di scritti occasionati, tra il 1972 e il 1985, da convegni, dibattiti, prefazioni, in cui vengono affrontati temi quali il segno, la rappresentazione, l'illusione, l'immagine.

Un audiolibro sui libri, una conversazione divertita e divertente, un'appassionata passeggiata lungo duemila anni di storia del libro, attraverso una discussione contemporaneamente erudita e ironica, colta e personale, filosofica e aneddotica. Dalle ragioni per cui una certa epoca genera capolavori al modo in cui funzionano la memoria e la classificazione di una biblioteca, dall'elogio di certe forme di stupidità e leggerezza all'analisi della passione del collezionista.

Story
Historien udspiller sig omkring et lille italiensk kloster i 1300-tallet, hvor franciskanermunken Broder William og hans lærling Adso hidkaldes for at bistå opklaringen af et mystisk mord blandt munkene. Rosens navn er thrilleren, der gjorde Umberto Eco verdensberømt for langt mere en blot en velkonstrueret mordgåde. Værket centrerer sig omkring middelalderens religiøse magtkampe og sociale udvikling og har ligeledes de komplekse forbindelser mellem det 14. og det 20. århundrede som et centralt tema i dette på en gang historiske og meget postmoderne mesterstykke.

En 1992, à Milan, un groupe de journalistes, cinq hommes et une femme, sont embauchés pour créer un nouveau quotidien qu'on leur promet dédié à la recherche de la vérité, mais qui se révèle un pur instrument de calomnie et de chantage. Ils fouillent dans le passé pour mettre en page leur "numéro zéro", et c'est le présent qui leur saute au visage... "L'ombre de Mussolini, donné pour mort, domine tous les événements italiens depuis 1945" : est-ce là le délire d'un journaliste d'investigation paranoïaque ?

De Umberto Eco, Migração e intolerância apresenta a reunião de quatro ensaios fundamentais sobre temas hoje ainda mais atuais e urgentes do que na época em que os textos foram escritos. As discussões sobre os grandes fluxos migratórios que temos visto nos últimos tempos e a postura intolerante de muitos para com os migrantes têm obrigado o mundo, em especial os países ds Europa, a defrontar-se com a própria história e os próprios valores.

Story
"KIRKEGÅRDEN I PRAG" er en fortælling fra 1800 om et Europa i oprør; en fortælling om et Europa, der søger en syndebuk. Udadtil er Simone Simonini antikvitetshandler i Paris. Men bag den stilfærdige facade gemmer sig en person, som forfalsker adskillige breve og andre dokumenter. Ét af antikvitetshandlerens dokumenter skal vise sig at være fatalt: Zions Vises Protokoller. Protokollerne foregiver at beskrive en jødisk pagt om verdensherredømme indgået på en kirkegård i Prag. Simoninis forfalskninger skal komme til at ændre historiens gang.

Story
Der Verschwörungskult um QAnon fabuliert von einer Elite, die das Blut gefolterter Kinder trinke. Selbsternannte Skeptiker wettern gegen vermeintliche Impfkartelle. Andere wähnen sich mitten in Deutschland in einer versteckten Diktatur. Auch wenn sie in immer neuer Gestalt daherkommen, Verschwörungstheorien durchziehen die Geschichte. Dabei verlaufen sie stets nach demselben Muster - das kaum jemand so treffend erkannt und brillant beschrieben hat wie Umberto Eco.

Stor roman fra Umberto Eco - for første gang sat i vor tid. En politisk kommentar til dagens Italien og til den moderne medievirkelighed. Vi er i Milano, året er 1992, Berlinmuren er faldet og korruptionsskandalen "Operation rene hænder" er begyndt at rulle og rive de gamle, kristeligt demokratiske og socialistiske magthavere til fald. Hovedpersonen, Colonna, har rundet de 50 år og er efter eget udsagn en falleret akademiker, en taber.

But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
