Darkness Rising: The East Salem Trilogy, Book , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 601min
The evil that's in East Salem is no longer content to hide in the shadows. The stakes - and the darkness - are rising. Dani Harris thought there wasn't much left that could surprise her after serving as a forensic psychiatrist in East Salem. And Tommy Gunderson has faced few challenges in his life that he couldn't overcome by either physical strength or his celebrity status. But as they race to uncover what's really happening behind the high walls of St. Adrian's Academy, it becomes clear that supernatural forces have been at work here for generations.

Gewaltexzesse antiker Tyrannen, Hörbuch, Digital, 65min
Die Antike: Blutige Kriege, geisteskranke Despoten und grausame Gladiatoren stehen für eine Zeit, in der die Menschen besonders verroht erscheinen. Bei näherer Betrachtung stellt sich aber heraus, dass die antiken Zeitgenossen Gewalt ebenso verabscheuten wie wir heute. Wie sind dann aber die vielen Berichte über Gewalttaten gerade bei Tyrannen zu bewerten? Bei näherer Betrachtung zeigt sich auch, dass Berichte über Gräueltaten wenig Vertrauen erweckend sind. Oft werden politische Gegner verunglimpft, indem man ihnen Gewaltexzesse unterstellt. Die weitere Geschichte der Gewaltdarstellungen zeigt, dass bis weit in die römische Kaiserzeit die Schilderung von brutalen Morden benutzt wurde, um Politik zu machen. Dabei werden in ihrer Grausamkeit bisweilen absurd wirkende Episoden erzählt. Für den Historiker sind sie von hohem Interesse, da sie die Kommunikation antiker Gesellschaften besser verstehen lassen. Der Autor und Sprecher: Prof. Dr. Martin Zimmermann ist ordentlicher Professor für Alte Geschichte an der Ludwig Maximilians Universität in München. Er leitete verschiedene Forschungsprojekte zu antiken Städten und forscht aktuell in der Umgebung der antiken Königsmetropole Pergamon. deutsch.

Agnes's Jacket: A Psychologist's Search for the Meanings of Madness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 862min
In a Victorian-era German asylum, seamstress Agnes Richter painstakingly stitched a mysterious autobiographical text into every inch of the jacket she created from her institutional uniform. Despite every attempt to silence them, hundreds of other patients have managed to get their stories out, at least in disguised form. Today, in a vibrant underground net-work of "psychiatric survivor groups" all over the world, patients work together to unravel the mysteries of madness and help one another re-cover. Optimistic, courageous, and surprising, Agnes's Jacket takes us from a code-cracking bunker during World War II to the church basements and treatment centers where a whole new way of understanding the mind has begun to take form. A vast gulf exists between the way medicine explains psychiatric illness and the experiences of those who suffer. Hornstein's luminous work helps us bridge that gulf, guiding us through the inner lives of those diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar illness, depression, and paranoia and emerging with nothing less than a new model for understanding one another and ourselves. ungekürzt.

Himalaya, Hörbuch, Digital, 351min
In his most challenging journey to date, Palin tackles the Himalayas, the greatest mountain range on earth. It is a virtually unbroken wall of rock stretching 1,800 miles from the borders of Afghanistan to south-west China. Penetrated but never conquered, it remains the world's most majestic natural barrier, a magnificent wilderness that shapes the history and politics of Asia to this day. Having previously risen to the challenge of seas, poles, and deserts, the highest mountains in the world were a natural target for Michael Palin. In a journey rarely, if ever, attempted before, in 6 months of hard traveling Palin takes on the full length of the Himalaya including the Khyber Pass, the hidden valleys of the Hindu Kush, ancient cities like Peshawar and Lahore, the mighty peaks of K2, Annapurna, and Everest, the bleak and barren plateau of Tibet, the gorges of the Yangtze, the tribal lands of the Indo-Burmese border, and the vast Brahmaputra delta in Bangladesh. He also passes through political flashpoints including Pakistan's remote north-west frontier, terrorist-torn Kashmir, and the mountains of Nagaland. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Palin.

Tod der Frequenzfolger: Perry Rhodan 2589, Hörbuch, Digital, 161min
In der Milchstraße schreibt man das Jahr 1463 Neuer Galaktischer Zeitrechnung - das entspricht dem Jahr 5050 christlicher Zeitrechnung. Seit einiger Zeit tobt der Kampf um die Polyport-Höfe, der mehrere Galaxien umspannt. Die sogenannten Polyport-Höfe sind Zeugnisse einer längst vergangenen Zeit, mit denen sich gigantische Entfernungen überbrücken lassen. Als die Frequenz-Monarchie aus einem jahrtausendelangen Ruheschlaf erwacht, beanspruchen ihre Herren, die Vatrox, sofort die Herrschaft über das Transportsystem und mehrere Galaxien. Die Terraner und ihre Verbündeten wehren sich erbittert - und sie entdecken die Achillesferse der Vatrox. Rasch gelingen ihnen entscheidende Schläge in der Milchstraße sowie in Andromeda. Allerdings sind damit nicht alle Gefahren beseitigt. Mit den Vatrox hängen zwei rivalisierende Geisteswesen zusammen, die weitaus bedrohlicher für die Menschheit sind. Gleichzeitig droht eine noch schlimmere Gefahr: der Tod von ES, jener Superintelligenz, mit der Perry Rhodan und die Menschheit auf vielfältige Weise verbunden sind. Rhodan muss das PARALOX-ARSENAL finden, um ES helfen zu können - aber dessen Verbleib ist ungewiss. Zeitgleich greift VATROX-VAMU die Frequenz-Monarchie an, und es kommt zum TOD DER FREQUENZFOLGER In deiner Audible-Bibliothek findest du für dieses Hörerlebnis eine PDF-Datei mit zusätzlichem Material. deutsch.
