Story
In the 1790s an extraordinary group of friends changed the world. Disappointed by the French Revolution's rapid collapse into tyranny, what they wanted was nothing less than a revolution of the mind. The rulers of Europe had ordered their peoples how to think and act for too long. Based in the small German town of Jena, through poetry, drama, philosophy and science, they transformed the way we think about ourselves and the world around us. They were the first Romantics.

Story
Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859) is the great lost scientist: more things are named after him than anyone else. There are towns, rivers, mountain ranges, the ocean current that runs along the South American coast; there's a penguin, a giant squid - even the Mare Humboldtianum on the moon. His colourful adventures read like something out of a Boy's Own story.

Story
Die große Biografie eines Universalgenies. Andrea Wulf vergegenwärtigt das pralle Leben des Universalgenies Alexander von Humboldt und zeigt ihn als interdisziplinären Forscher sui generis. Natur wird bei Humboldt quasi neu erfunden: In ihrer ganzen Fülle als Lebensnetz, als moderne Ausgestaltung der wirkmächtigen Idee von der "great chain of being". Wulf macht deutlich, worin Humboldt seiner Zeit weit voraus war und unverändert wichtig bleibt.

Story
Ende der 1790er Jahre – als die meisten Staaten in Europa noch im eiserenen Griff absolutistischer Herrscher waren – galt die Idee vom freien Individuum als brandgefährlich. Und dennoch stellte eine Gruppe von Denkern in der kleinen Universitätsstadt Jena das Ich in den Mittelpunkt ihres Denkens, Schreibens und Lebens. Zu diesem Kreis gehörten die Dichter Goethe, Schiller und Novalis ebenso wie die Philosophen Fichte, Schelling und Hegel, die genialen Schlegel-Brüder und ihre Muse, Caroline Schlegel.
