Saint-Simon fut souvent considéré comme l'un des plus grands écrivains de la langue française. Il fut contemporain de Louis XIV et ses Mémoires, écrites en vingt volumes, constituent un témoignage essentiel de ce que fut cette époque et nous offrent une plongée fascinante dans l'univers du Roi Soleil, le plus célèbre de tous les rois. Les pages qui suivent sont issues d'une sélection effectuée au cœur de ces mémoires dont la teneur résume, sans avoir besoin de lire l'ensemble de l'œuvre, l'atmosphère qui régnait à la Cour du Roi.

Story0
Im Jahr 1861 drang die Polizei eines französischen Dorfes in das Haus von Martin Dumollard im Wald ein. In seinem Innern herrschte das Chaos, in dem man sich Wege durch Berge von blutverschmierten Kleidungsstücken, die an manchen Stellen bis zur Decke reichten, bahnen musste. Die Beamten gingen davon aus, dass der mysteriöse Dienstmädchenräuber eine Frau getötet hatte, bei seinen anderen Versuchen jedoch gescheitert war. Doch nun wurde immer deutlicher, dass zwischen den Verbrechen, von denen sie wussten, und denen, die wirklich begangen wurden, eine enorme Kluft bestand.

Story1
Einhard served Charlemagne, king and Holy Roman Emperor, for 23 years. From that experience, combined with his in-depth research, Einhard penned this biography of Charlemagne in the style of Suetonius’ Lives of the Caesars. Because he felt indebted to Charlemagne, Einhard wrote in a partial tone, exalting the man’s achievements and overlooking certain unflattering details about his life. Despite this, historians regard The Life of Charlemagne as an important historical account that, while not far-reaching, is largely reliable.

Alexandre Dumas écrit La Route de Varennes dans un souci de vérité historique. Reprenant tour à tour les différents récits historiques pour en montrer les erreurs, l'auteur s’attache à reprendre la même route que Louis XVI et sa famille lors de leur fuite de Paris, pas à pas, pour trouver traces et témoignages de ce grand fait historique. Alexandre Dumas signe ici un un petit roman aussi instructif que réjouissant.

Qu’est-ce que la nation française ? La question s’est posée à de multiples reprises au fil de l’histoire, parfois de manière très vive comme lors de la Révolution, de la perte de l’Alsace-Lorraine, du régime de Vichy et jusqu’à nos fractures contemporaines. S’agit-il d’une communauté ethnique, linguistique, territoriale, d’une organisation politique de citoyens désireux de vivre ensemble ou bien encore d’une construction historique d’un autre type ? Doit-on la faire remonter à 1789, à la bataille de Bouvines, au baptême de Clovis, voire à " nos ancêtres les Gaulois " ?

De 1940 à 1944, une bande de malfrats, dirigée par Henri Lafont et Pierre Bonny – un petit escroc allié à un flic ripou – s'est mise au service de l'occupant allemand en semant la terreur et le chaos dans la capitale française. Protégée par les nazis, cette organisation criminelle est entrée dans l'histoire sous le nom de la Gestapo française de la rue Lauriston, surnommée la Carlingue. De loin la plus puissante, la plus crainte et la plus haïe des Gestapos françaises, elle était également la mieux organisée.
