A delightfully captivating journey across the medieval world, seen through the eyes of those who travelled across it From the bustling bazaars of Tabriz, to the mysterious island of Caldihe, where sheep were said to grow on trees, Anthony Bale brings history alive in A Travel Guide to the Middle Ages, inviting the reader to travel across a medieval world punctuated with miraculous wonders and long-lost landmarks. Journeying alongside scholars, spies and saints, from western Europe to the Far East, the Antipodes, and the ends of the world, this is no ordinary travel guide, containing everything from profane pilgrim badges, Venetian laxatives and flying coffins to encounters with bandits and trysts with princesses. Using previously untranslated contemporary accounts from as far and wide as Turkey, Iceland, Armenia, north Africa, and Russia, A Travel Guide to the Middle Ages is a living atlas that blurs the distinction between real and imagined places, offering the reader a vivid and unforgettable insight into how medieval people understood their world.

abc.de est un dictionnaire illustré multilingue de la culture allemande, un abécédaire graphique ambitieux qui introduit les lecteurs a l’univers de la littérature, de la science, de la philosophie et de l’art allemands. Ici, les mots et les lettres font la queue devant le cabinet de Sigmund Freud, éclairent les nuits des freres Grimm, s’échappent des livres de Brecht et de Goethe, bondissent sur les partitions de Bach, grimpent au sommet de la cathédrale de Cologne. Dans cette balade ou se côtoient des mots français, anglais, allemand et polonais, le lecteur se laisse guider par les plus grandes figures culturelles et scientifiques allemandes :

Max Ernst, Albert Einstein, Pina Bausch, Amadeus Mozart, Joseph Beuys, Leibniz et bien d’autres.

« Je souris a cette langue et a cette culture qui me sont si proches… Je dois beaucoup a ma grand-mere Hulda Jaeger, qui m’a appris des poemes allemands et me chantait Stille Nacht, pas seulement en hiver », nous explique l’auteur, la célebre illustratrice Iwona Chmielewska. « Elle était une simple tisserande, a Łódz’, ville polonaise de l’industrie textile, mais on peut la rencontrer également dans ce livre. Tu ne t’attendais pas a cela, Mamie, n’est-ce-pas ? »
