Seis lecciones de Historia

History is all of us, no one is excluded, and history is a teacher of life. That is what Valerio Massimo Manfredi tries to show us in this short essay made up of different articles and lectures. Because knowledge is the only wealth that we can share and that no one, no thief, will ever be able to steal from us; because those who do not know or remember mark their destiny with the fatality that has already happened in the past... The adventures of Ulysses, the dream of a new empire of Alexander the Great, the greatness of thought and action of Julius Caesar, the great technological inventions of the Antiquity, the birth of the Roman Empire, the dangerous navigations of the Carthaginians to the end of the world, the medieval mysteries of the Knights Templar... All of this is collected in this precious volume. Fascinating portraits and reconstructions of the ancient world, capable of revealing the present and eternity of the great figures of history and mythology at the same time.
