But to get the full story, sometimes you have to ask the side characters.\r\nThe lives of Leonardo da Vinci, Henry VIII and Queen Victoria fill bookshelves and fascinate scholars all over the world. But little attention is given to the ferret who posed for the renaissance master, the servant who oversaw the Tudor's toilet time, or the famous horse who thrilled the miserable old monarch.\r\nThese supporting cast members have been waiting in the wings for too long, and Adrian Bliss thinks it's high time they join their glory-hogging contemporaries in the spotlight. Fortunately, - thanks to some recently discovered ancient complaint letters, court transcripts and memoirs in bottles - now they can.\r\nEqual parts fascinating and hilarious, the Greatest Nobodies of History is a surreal love letter to life's forgotten heroes featuring hitherto undocumented accounts from Ancient Greece to the frontlines of the Great Emu War.\r\nAll that follows really happened, and some of it could even be true...","authors":["Adrian Bliss"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/257\/9781804944257_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/257\/9781804944257_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/257\/9781804944257_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"16,40 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"31 juillet 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Adrian Bliss \u2014 Penguin Books Uk","translator":null,"weight":215,"page_count":304,"readership":null,"editor":"Penguin Books Uk","price":1640,"published_date":"2025-07-30T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Poche","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":["9780593977163","9781529907452"],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9781804944257\/the-greatest-nobodies-of-history-minor-characters-from-major-moments"},{"id":"9781509575558","title":"Gender Identity : The Career of a Category","description":"From its obscure mid-twentieth-century origins in clinical assessments of intersex individuals, \"gender identity\" - understood as an inner sense of self that may or may not align with one's natal sex - has become central to the public and private culture of selfhood throughout the Western world. The category has been enacted in laws and regulations, encoded in organizational policies and routines, and embedded in everyday ways of thinking and talking. It has introduced a novel principle of social classification, created new possibilities for personhood, and come to rival or redefine the category of sex itself.\r\nThese developments have provoked intense controversy. Disputes rage about the legitimacy of medical interventions for gender-dysphoric youth, the meaning and limits of gender self-determination, and the terms governing access to women's spaces and activities.\r\nRogers Brubaker treats this hot topic in a cool manner, bringing much-needed analytical distance and conceptual clarity to a discussion dominated by polemics. Renowned for his foundational analyses of basic social categories, Brubaker sidesteps intractable debates about what gender identity ultimately is in order to show how the category actually works in medicine, law, data-gathering, and education. And he challenges prevailing understandings by demonstrating that despite its obvious instrumentalization by the right, most spectacularly in the US, the controversy over gender identity cannot be understood solely through a left-right lens.\r\nWide-ranging and rigorous, this book will inject a healthy dose of reason into one of the most troubled and acrimonious debates of our time.","authors":["Rogers Brubaker"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/558\/9781509575558_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/558\/9781509575558_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/558\/9781509575558_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"27,70 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"5 juin 2026","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Rogers Brubaker \u2014 Polity Press","translator":null,"weight":0,"page_count":224,"readership":null,"editor":"Polity Press","price":2770,"published_date":"2026-06-04T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9781509575558\/gender-identity-the-career-of-a-category"},{"id":"9782070149070","title":"La Shoah de Monsieur Durand","description":"Ce bref essai, pr\u00e9cis et cinglant, \u00e9claire avec intelligence ce qu'est en train de vivre la quatri\u00e8me g\u00e9n\u00e9ration de Juifs apr\u00e8s Auschwitz.

Quandt claimed that he had been forced to join the party by his arch-rival, propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, and the courts acquitted him. But Quandt lied. And his heirs, and those of other Nazi billionaires, have only grown wealthier in the generations since, while their reckoning with this dark past remains incomplete at best. Many of them continue to control swaths of the world economy, owning iconic brands whose products blanket the globe. The brutal legacy of the dynasties that dominated Daimler-Benz, cofounded Allianz and still control Porsche, Volkswagen and BMW has remained hidden in plain sight - until now.\r\n          \r\nIn this landmark work, investigative journalist David de Jong reveals the true story of how Germany's wealthiest business dynasties amassed untold money and power by abetting the atrocities of the Third Reich. Using a wealth of untapped sources, de Jong shows how these tycoons seized Jewish businesses, procured slave labourers and ramped up weapons production to equip Hitler's army as Europe burnt around them. Most shocking of all, de Jong exposes how the wider world's political expediency enabled these billionaires to get away with their crimes, covering up a bloodstain that defiles the German and global economy to this day.","authors":["David De Jong"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/798\/9780008299798_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/798\/9780008299798_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/798\/9780008299798_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"16,40 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"27 avril 2023","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"David De Jong \u2014 William Collins","translator":null,"weight":351,"page_count":381,"readership":null,"editor":"William Collins","price":1640,"published_date":"2023-04-26T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780008299798\/nazi-billionaires-the-dark-history-of-germanys-wealthiest-dynasties"},{"id":"9780006550969","title":"White mughals - love and betrayal in eighteenth-century india","description":"From the early 16th century to the eve of the Indian Mutiny, the \"white Mughals\" who wore local dress and adopted Indian ways were a source of embarrassment to successive colonial administrations.

It fills a glaring gap in the British and American historiography of the war and shares a hoard of new stories - some of them truly shocking - that have never yet been published in any language.\r\n          \r\nWhen the Allies arrived in late 1943, Naples had already suffered a brutal German occupation and suffered reprisals from the city's heroic resistance and uprisings. This did not save it from the merciless Allied bombing. The city was on its knees with widespread suffering and squalor. Criminal gangs prospered, as did typhus, starvation and soaring prices on the black market. Much of the female population was forced into part-time prostitution simply to obtain food. Then Vesuvius erupted.\r\n          \r\nLowe's gripping and powerful book places Naples right at the heart of Italian history. What happened in this city was not a mere sideshow to bigger events taking place further north, it was central to the story of the country as a whole. Neapolitans resisted Fascism just as the Florentines, the Bolognese, and the Milanese did. They suffered just as northerners did, and they longed as much for constitutional rebirth. The heroism and sacrifice that took place in Naples were harbingers of what would later happen throughout Italy - as were the compromise and corruption of ideals that came after the Allies took control.\r\n          \r\nNaples 1944 is original and humane history at its very best, and a book which shows that Neapolitan story is the Italian story.","authors":["Keith Lowe"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/609\/9780008339609_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/609\/9780008339609_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/609\/9780008339609_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"26,90 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"26 septembre 2024","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Keith Lowe \u2014 William Collins","translator":null,"weight":270,"page_count":null,"readership":null,"editor":"William Collins","price":2690,"published_date":"2024-09-25T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780008339609\/naples-1944-war-liberation-and-chaos"},{"id":"9780008446581","title":"Survivors : The Lost Stories of the Last Captives of the Atlantic Slave Trade","description":"WINNER OF THE WOLFSON HISTORY PRIZE 2025\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            SHORTLISTED FOR THE NONFICTION CROWN AWARD\r\n          \r\n          \r\n'Gripping ... remarkably wide-ranging' THE TIMES\r\n          \r\n            This is an immersive and revelatory history of the survivors of the Clotilda, the last ship of the Atlantic slave trade, whose lives diverged and intersected in profound ways.\r\n          \r\n          \r\nThe Clotilda docked in Mobile Bay, Alabama, in July 1860 - more than half a century after the passage of a federal law banning the importation of captive Africans, and nine months before the beginning of the Civil War.

Its people used the Indian rupee, were issued passports stamped 'Indian Empire', and were guarded by armies garrisoned in forts from the Bab el-Mandeb to the Himalayas\r\n          \r\nAnd then, in the space of just fifty years, the Indian Empire shattered. Five partitions tore it apart, carving out new nations, redrawing maps, and leaving behind a legacy of war, exile and division.\r\n          \r\nShattered Lands, for the first time, presents the whole story of how the Indian Empire was unmade. How a single, sprawling dominion became twelve modern nations. How maps were redrawn in boardrooms and on battlefields, by politicians in London and revolutionaries in Delhi, by kings in remote palaces and soldiers in trenches.\r\n          \r\nIts legacies include civil war in Burma and ongoing insurgencies in Kashmir, Baluchistan and Northeast India, and the Rohingya genocide. It is a history of ambition and betrayal, of forgotten wars and unlikely alliances, of borders carved with ink and fire. And, above all, it is the story of how the map of modern Asia was made.\r\n          \r\nSam Dalrymple's stunning history is based on deep archival research, previously untranslated private memoirs, and interviews in English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Punjabi, Konyak, Arabic and Burmese. From portraits of the key political players to accounts of those swept up in these wars and mass migrations, Shattered Lands is vivid, compelling, thought-provoking history at its best.\r\n          \r\n            ** Shattered Lands is being translated into four languages (Bengali, Marathi, Malayalam and Hindi), and was shortlisted for the Eastern Eye Award for History, the Ramnath Goenka Sahithya Samman and Atta Galatta prizes. **\r\n          \r\n          \r\n'A stunning achievement.

Must I think my own way through the world? What is justice? How can I be me? How should we treat each other?\r\n          \r\n          \r\nBefore the Greeks, the idea of the world was dominated by god-kings and their priests, in a life ruled by imagined metaphysical monsters. 2,500 years ago, in a succession of small eastern Mediterranean harbour-cities, that way of thinking began to change. Men (and some women) decided to cast off mental subservience and apply their own worrying and thinking minds to the conundrums of life.\r\n          \r\nThese great innovators shaped the beginnings of philosophy. Through the questioning voyager Odysseus, Homer explored how we might navigate our way through the world. Heraclitus in Ephesus was the first to consider the interrelatedness of things. Xenophanes of Colophon was the first champion of civility. In Lesbos, the Aegean island of Sappho and Alcaeus, the early lyric poets asked themselves 'How can I be true to myself?' In Samos, Pythagoras imagined an everlasting soul and took his ideas to Italy where they flowered again in surprising and radical forms.\r\n          \r\nPrize-winning and bestselling writer Adam Nicolson travels through this transforming world and asks what light these ancient thinkers can throw on our deepest preconceptions. Sparkling with maps, photographs and artwork, How to Be is a journey into the origins of Western thought.\r\n          \r\nHugely formative ideas emerged in these harbour-cities: fluidity of mind, the search for coherence, a need for the just city, a recognition of the mutability of things, a belief in the reality of the ideal - all became the Greeks' legacy to the world.\r\n          \r\nBorn out of a rough, dynamic-and often cruel- moment in human history, it was the dawn of enquiry, where these fundamental questions about self, city and cosmos, asked for the first time, became, as they remain, the unlikely bedrock of understanding.","authors":["Adam Nicolson"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/829\/9780008490829_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/829\/9780008490829_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/829\/9780008490829_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"16,40 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"4 janvier 2024","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Adam Nicolson \u2014 William Collins","translator":null,"weight":355,"page_count":358,"readership":null,"editor":"William Collins","price":1640,"published_date":"2024-01-03T23:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780008490829\/how-to-be-life-lessons-from-the-early-greeks"},{"id":"9780008599218","title":"THE SHOWMAN ; THE INSIDE STORY THAT MADE A WAR LEADER OF VOLODYMYR ZELENSKY","description":"AN INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            ''An intense, evocative portrait of one of the most remarkable figures of our era'' ANNE APPLEBAUM\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            ''This is the Zelensky book we''ve been waiting for'' CATHERINE BELTON\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            THE TIMES: A BEST BOOK OF 2024 - NEXT YEAR''S TOP READS\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            GUARDIAN: BOOKS TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2024\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            INDEPENDENT: A BOOK OF THE MONTH\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            WRITTEN WITH UNPRECEDENTED ACCESS, THIS IS THE FIRST INSIDE, INTIMATE ACCOUNT OF THE RUSSIAN INVASION OF UKRAINE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF PRESIDENT ZELENSKY AND HIS TEAM.\r\n          \r\n          Based on four years of reporting; extensive travels with President Zelensky to the front; and dozens of interviews with him, his wife, his friends and enemies, his advisers, ministers and military commanders, The Showman tells an intimate and eye-opening story of the President''s evolution from a slapstick actor to a symbol of resilience, revealing how he managed to rally the world''s democracies behind his cause.\r\n          Clear-eyed about the President''s early failures as a peacemaker and his willingness to silence political dissent, the book offers a complex picture of a man struggling to break what he sees as a historical cycle of oppression that began generations before he was born.

The end of the Cold War had robbed the agency of its mission. More than thirty overseas stations and bases had been shuttered, and scores that remained had been severely cut back. Many countries where surveillance was once deemed crucial went uncovered. Essential intelligence wasn''t being collected. At the dawn of the information age, the CIA''s officers and analysts worked with outmoded technology, struggling to distinguish the clear signals of significant facts from the cacophony of background noise.\r\n          Then came September 11th, 2001. After the attacks, the CIA transformed itself into a lethal paramilitary force, running secret prisons and brutal interrogations, mounting deadly drone attacks, and all but abandoning its core missions of espionage and counterespionage. The consequences were grave: the deaths of scores of its recruited foreign agents, the theft of its personnel files by Chinese spies, the penetration of its computer networks by Russian intelligence and American hackers, and the tragedies of Afghanistan and Iraq. A new generation of spies now must fight the hardest targets - Moscow, Beijing, Tehran - while confronting a president who has attacked the CIA as a subversive force.\r\n          From Pulitzer Prize winner Tim Weiner,The Missiontells the gripping, high-stakes story of the CIA through the first quarter of the twenty-first century, revealing how the agency fought to rebuild the espionage powers it lost during the war on terror - and finally succeeded in penetrating the Kremlin. The struggle has life-and-death consequences for America and its allies. The CIA must reclaim its original mission: know thy enemies. The fate of the free world hangs in the balance.\r\n          A masterpiece of reporting, The Mission includes exclusive on-the-record interviews with six former CIA directors, thirteen station chiefs, and scores of top spies who served undercover for decades and have never spoken to a journalist before.","authors":["Tim Weiner"],"category_codes":[],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/602\/9780008606602_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/602\/9780008606602_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/602\/9780008606602_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"26,90 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"7 ao\u00fbt 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Tim Weiner \u2014 William Collins","translator":null,"weight":565,"page_count":454,"readership":null,"editor":"William Collins","price":2690,"published_date":"2025-08-06T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":["9780008606596","9780008606633"],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780008606602\/the-mission-the-cia-in-the-21st-century"},{"id":"9780007386932","title":"The Boundless Deep : Young Tennyson, Science and the Crisis of Belief","description":"*SHORTLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE*\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            *SHORTLISTED FOR THE POL ROGER DUFF COOPER PRIZE*\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            A Book of the Year in the Times; Telegraph; Spectator; Financial Times; Observer; Waterstones and Daunt Books\r\n          \r\n          \r\n            A dazzling new biography of young Tennyson by the prize-winning, bestselling author of The Age of Wonder. \r\n          \r\n          \r\nAlfred Lord Tennyson is now remembered - if he is remembered at all - as the gloomily bearded Poet Laureate, author of such clanking Victorian works as 'The Charge of the Light Brigade', and the mournful author of the lugubrious elegy In Memoriam. In this dazzling new biography, Richard Holmes reawakens this somnolent Victorian figure, brings him back to sparkling life, and unexpectedly transforms him.\r\n          \r\nFrom the prize-winning and bestselling biographer of Shelley and Coleridge, and author of the landmark, critically acclaimed THE AGE OF WONDER, Holmes recovers in Young Tennyson an astonishingly magnetic and mercurial personality, a secretly expressive and highly emotional man but now haunted by the great intellectual - and above all the great scientific - issues of his time.\r\n          \r\nThe brilliant child of an obscure dysfunctional Lincolnshire family, terrorised by a drunken father, torn by unhappy love affairs but sustained by vivid friendships (especially that of Edward FitzGerald, the author of 'Omar Khayyam') Young Tennyson emerges in his first forty years as a memorable poet, hypnotically musical ('The Lady of Shalott') yet intensely engaged with the new astronomy, geology, biology - and even the psychiatry - of the age before Darwin.\r\n          \r\nTennyson's imagination and intellect were haunted by the eruption of three new fundamentally transformative scientific ideas - biological evolution, the notion of a godless, unpitying universe and of planetary extinction. These were as terrifying to Tennyson as climate catastrophe is to us today. Their impact brought him into contact with the life and scientific work of William Whewell (originally his university tutor), the astronomer John Herschel, the geologist Charles Lyell, the mathematician Mary Somerville, the computer pioneer Charles Babbage, and the brilliant science populariser Robert Chambers. He also shared his visions and anxieties with contemporary writers and social commentators like Thomas Carlyle and Charles Dickens, and poets like Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Edgar Allan Poe.\r\n          \r\nTennyson's work during these 'vagrant years' is suffused with an unsuspected and strangely modern magic. Holmes's extraordinary biography allows us to witness Tennyson wrestling with mind-altering ideas of geology and deep time, the vastness, beauty and terror of the new cosmology, and the challenges of social revolution. And how these inspired him to grapple with the idea of human mortality, the threat of suicide and depression, the struggle between love and loneliness, agnosticism and belief.","authors":["Richard Holmes"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/932\/9780007386932_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/932\/9780007386932_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/932\/9780007386932_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"33,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"25 septembre 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Richard Holmes \u2014 William Collins","translator":null,"weight":125,"page_count":null,"readership":null,"editor":"William Collins","price":3380,"published_date":"2025-09-24T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":["9780008696863"],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780007386932\/the-boundless-deep-young-tennyson-science-and-the-crisis-of-belief"},{"id":"9780008681791","title":"The Demon of Unrest : Abraham Lincoln & America's Road to Civil War","description":"#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER \r\n          \r\n          \r\n            The author of The Splendid and the Vile brings to life the pivotal five months between the election of Abraham Lincoln and the start of the Civil War in this 'riveting reexamination of a nation in tumult' (Los Angeles Times).\r\n          \r\n          \r\nOn November 6, 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the fluky victor in a tight race for president. The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fuelled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.\r\n          \r\nMaster storyteller Erik Larson offers a gripping account of the chaotic months between Lincoln's election and the Confederacy's shelling of Sumter - a period marked by tragic errors and miscommunications, enflamed egos and craven ambitions, personal tragedies and betrayals. Lincoln himself wrote that the trials of these five months were 'so great that, could I have anticipated them, I would not have believed it possible to survive them'.\r\n          \r\nAt the heart of this suspense-filled narrative are Major Robert Anderson, Sumter's commander and a former slave owner sympathetic to the South but loyal to the Union; Edmund Ruffin, a vain and bloodthirsty radical who stirs secessionist ardour at every opportunity; and Mary Boykin Chesnut, wife of a prominent planter, conflicted over both marriage and slavery and seeing parallels between both. In the middle of it all is the overwhelmed Lincoln, battling with his duplicitous Secretary of State, William Seward, as he tries desperately to avert a war that he fears is inevitable - one that will eventually kill 750,000 Americans.\r\n          \r\nDrawing on diaries, secret communiques, slave ledgers, and plantation records, Larson gives us a political horror story that captures the forces that led America to the brink - a dark reminder that we often don't see a cataclysm coming until it's too late.","authors":["Erik Larson"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/791\/9780008681791_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/791\/9780008681791_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/791\/9780008681791_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"18,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"8 mai 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Erik Larson \u2014 William Collins","translator":null,"weight":399,"page_count":565,"readership":null,"editor":"William Collins","price":1880,"published_date":"2025-05-07T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780008681791\/the-demon-of-unrest-abraham-lincoln-americas-road-to-civil-war"}]}
