Anne Frank blev i 1944 sendt i koncentrationslejr sammen med sin familie, hvor hun døde i 1945.

O livro, que à primeira vista pode parecer seguir a tradição da prosa moralista, com intenção doutrinária, configurada em um manual de conduta, foi escrito pela autora para sua filha, Livia, e revela-se como um manifesto feminista, que defende a educação e a emancipação feminina em uma época em que a sociedade patriarcal não encontrava oposição. Escrito em formato epistolar, a carta escrita de mãe para filha em tom afetuoso elenca os direitos e virtudes das mulheres no mundo oitocentista, sem deixar de alertar sobre os perigos de relações falsas e a importância das boas escolhas.

Das Jahr 1797 ist im Schaffen von Goethe und Schiller nicht nur ein überaus produktives Jahr, sondern auch ein Jahr, in dem zu großen Teilen einige ihrer späterhin bekanntesten und meist gelesenen Texte entstehen. Für beide Dichter ist das Nachdenken über diesen Gegenstand von höchster praktischer Bedeutung. Während Goethe das schnell anwachsende Material seiner Faust-Tragödie dramatisch zu verdichten sucht, arbeitet Schiller an seinem Drama «Wallenstein», das über die Monate hin zu monumentaler Größe anschwillt.

It's the biggest sporting competition on Earth. A four-yearly chance for our greatest footballers to realise their ultimate dream. A month-long spectacle that's watched by billions. But the inaugural World Cup, held in Uruguay in 1930, was semi-professional, poorly attended and haphazardly organized—so how did it become a bonanza of multinational sponsorship, dubious ethics and shadowy characters, and the ultimate stage for football's greatest drama? Simon Kuper is one of very few people to have attended every World Cup since 1990.
