Sofie is an ordinary Norwegian girl. One day she recieves a video tape on which a certain Alberto Knox talks directly to her from ancient Greece. They then start to meet at different occasions and throughout the film, Alberto takes Sofie on an odyssey of the history of philosophy, from ancient Greece, over the Roman empire, the Middle ages, the renaissance, the enlightenment, the big revolutions and up to today. Throughout this journey, they start to realise that they are only fictions of a story writer's imagination and start conceiving a plan for escaping into reality. El mundo de Sofía (1991) es la novela más conocida del escritor noruego Jostein Gaarder. Se convirtió en un auténtico superventas, no sólo en Europa sino también en todo el mundo, siendo traducida a 54 idiomas. Usando como pretexto una trama novelesca, el autor hace una guía básica sobre la historia de la filosofía. Posteriormente, esta novela fue llevada al cine (también llamada El mundo de Sofía) en 1999, cuando fue dirigida por el también noruego Erik Gustavson

Des images de synthèse permettent de découvrir Florence à l'époque de la Renaissance, au temps des Médicis, une famille de mécènes hors du commun. Cette reconstitution minutieuse offre un visage totalement inédit de cette ville et de ses monuments emblématiques, tels que le Duomo, le Ponte Vecchio, ou encore le Palais Médicis. Des documents rares révèlent également les secrets de la fortune des Médicis, à une époque où Florence offrait à la fois une sophistication et une richesse incroyables, grâce à la présence de savants, de peintres ou de banquiers, mais aussi une face plus sombre, faite de complots, de meurtres et de trahisons.

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519, Old Style) was an Italian Renaissance polymath: painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer. His genius, perhaps more than that of any other figure, epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the Renaissance Man, a man of "unquenchable curiosity" and "feverishly inventive imagination".

This week we check in with the Vaccines, the London based four-piece who many music scribes see as heralding a renaissance in good old-fashioned British guitar rock. If youâre unfamiliar with their stunning debut album âWhat Did You Expect From The Vaccines?â stay tuned for the next five minutes while we whisk you through some of the bandâs peak performances so far.
First up is the sublime âAll In Whiteâ recorded in at the York Stereo last November, and an excellent introduction to the darkly brooding power of front man Justin Young. Nine days earlier, the Vaccines appeared on Later with Jools Holland to play âIf You Wannaâ, perhaps the catchiest track on the album, and the one that propelled them to international attention.
Little surprise then that they also chose to play it on the David Letterman show this past May, while on a mini tour of the US. We also sample a bit of âPost Break-up Sexâ from the Festive Festival, the BBC showcase on Radio 1, home of DJ Zane Lowe who is credited with discovering ...

10. Amerigo Vespucci - Ein Name für einen Kontinent (Amerigo Vespucci et le Nouveau Monde) Amerika heißt nicht Columbia, so benannt nach Christoph Columbus, sondern eben Amerika. Amerigo Vespucci stammt au seiner gut-bürgerlichen Familie. Als echtes Kind der italienischen Renaissance - er kam 1454 in Florenz zur Welt - studiert er die damals üblichen Fächer Astronomie, Philosophie, Latein und Kartographie. Zu seinen Freunden gehören Leonardo da Vinci und Sandro Boticelli, der ihm seine Freundin ausspannt und sie zu seinem bevorzugten Modell macht. Amerigo möchte in die Welt hinaus und große Abenteuer bestehen. Eines Tages erlebt er, wie Columbus gerade von seiner ersten Reise zurückkommt. Amerigo ist fest davon überzeugt, dass dort, wo Columbus war, Indien nicht liegen kann. Es gelingt ihm, den spanischen König für seine kühnen Pläne zu gewinnen. So sticht er am 10. Mai des Jahres 1497 von Cadiz aus in See und segelt nach Südamerika. Er erreicht ein Jahr früher als Columbus, der ebenfalls gestartet ist, das südamerikanische Festland. Dort erforscht er die heimischen Pflanzen- und Tierwelt, fertigt genaueste Karte an und entdeckt unter anderem die Mündung des Amazonas. In einer Klosterbibliothek, in der Karten angefertigt werden, fällt ganz nebenbei die Entscheidung: der Gelehrte Waldseemüller hat das letzte Wort: der neue Kontinent soll nicht Vespuccia heißen, sondern wie es neben Afrika, Asien, Europa am besten klingt: Amerika.
