On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you'll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder.

Story
The Berlin Wall is perhaps modern history’s most infamous edifice. The Berlin Wall: A World Divided is more than just the story of brick, concrete, and barbed wire. It’s the story of a city, a country, and a world - all of them divided. To hear how the Berlin Wall exemplified this division is to gain insights into a central tension of world history: between the human drive for freedom and the political will that would control and repress that drive.

Story
Since its rise to the highest ranks of power in Renaissance Europe, the Borgia family has developed a scandalous reputation. While they were indeed ostentatious, calculating, worldly, cruel - and even, occasionally, murderous - you may be surprised to find that the Borgias were not terribly different from other powerful and ambitious families of their day. So why has history set them apart as one of the most corrupt and reviled families in history?

Story
In 10 lectures, award-winning historian Patrick N. Allitt transports listeners to England in the 1840s and 1850s. During those two decades, Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert, became one of the most influential people in the country and remains a figure of fascination even today. In fact, the British royal family as we know it wouldn't exist without the private and public actions of this detached, impartial, and upright political figure.

Story
Nel 1992 l'Italia si fermò. Si fermò davanti alle inchieste dei magistrati che si aprivano una dietro l'altra senza sosta. Il paese intero si fermò sconvolto dal rumore delle manette, dal fruscio delle mazzette, dalle voci dei giornalisti che si affannavano e si accavallavano per raccontare le gesta di politici, di imprenditori e di giudici. Stava finendo la Milano da bere mentre echeggiavano le bombe in Sicilia; folle festanti osservavano politici incamminarsi verso la galera, osannando chi ce li mandava.

Story
Un periodo storico affascinante e complesso, che gli studiosi dividono in alto, alla caduta dell’Impero Romano sino all’anno mille, e basso, che si conclude nel 1492. Parliamo del medioevo, a torto liquidato come l’era dei secoli bui, ma certo un’epoca dove il ricorso alla violenza è pratica quotidiana. In “Nero come il Terrore” vi racconteremo storie incredibili di intricati complotti ed efferati omicidi, sanguinose battaglie e vittime innocenti, a comporre un ritratto più vicino a noi di quanto vorremmo ammettere.

Story
La storia di Giovanni Falcone è quella di un uomo che ha dato un senso profondo a ogni istante della propria esistenza. Talvolta allegro e festaiolo, talvolta austero, diffidente, Falcone era un personaggio incredibilmente complesso: un innovatore, un guerriero, un protagonista indiscusso nella lotta alla mafia e, nonostante ciò, un bersaglio pubblico, costretto a schivare un’infinita serie di attacchi.

Il podcast Sigonella 85 ripercorre le 51 ore drammatiche del dirottamento dell’Achille Lauro, “la nave più bella del mondo“, per poi concentrarsi su ciò che è avvenuto a Sigonella: il primo no detto da un Governo Italiano agli Americani, un rifiuto che ha scatenato la più profonda crisi Italia-USA mai verificatasi dal Dopoguerra, e che ha messo in discussione gli equilibri di tutto il mondo. Un contrasto diplomatico che ha rischiato di trasformarsi in uno scontro militare. Eppure, a sentire chi, quella sera, era presenta a Sigonella, le cose non sarebbero andate così come ci sono sempre state raccontate.

Story
The rituals and pageantry of courtship in the 19th century can seem foreign to us today. Some of us may look back and see a more romantic age, while others will see a minefield of strict rules and stuffy protocol. Either way you look at it, it was worlds away from what dating is in the 21st century. In the six lessons of A Courtly History: Romance in the 19th Century, Professor Stephanie Insley Hershinow gives you a look at the complex and ever-evolving rules of romance in 19th-century Britain. Along the way, you will see why this fascinating era keeps drawing us back to novels and Netflix.
