Télumée, paysanne de la Guadeloupe née au début du siècle, a été élevée par sa grand-mère, « haute négresse » justement nommée Reine Sans Nom. Télumée a souffert de sa condition de femme, de Noire et d'exploitée. Pourtant, qu'elle soit en compagnie d'Elie ou au côté d'Amboise, le révolté, sa volonté de bonheur, de « récolter par pleins paniers cette douceur qui tombe du ciel », est la plus forte.

At the end of the fifteenth century, Burgundy was extinguished as an independent state. It had been a fabulously wealthy, turbulent region situated between France and Germany, with close links to the English kingdom. Torn apart by the dynastic struggles of early modern Europe, this extraordinary realm vanished from the map. But it became the cradle of what we now know as the Low Countries, modern Belgium and the Netherlands. This is the story of a thousand years, a must-listen narrative history of ambitious aristocrats, family dysfunction, treachery, savage battles, luxury, and madness.

"De mère africaine - arrachée à son village par des trafiquants d'esclaves - et de père inconnu - quelque marin du bateau négrier voguant vers la Guadeloupe - elle n'est ni noire ni blanche, et même ses deux yeux sont de nuance différente. Enfant, on la surnommera 'Deux-âmes'. Et finalement c'est sous le nom de 'Solitude' qu'elle vivra à la Guadeloupe dans les familles de Blancs qui l'ont achetée, puis parmi les troupes de Noirs révoltés qu'elle rejoindra à grand-peine dans leurs refuges des forêts de la Soufrière."

Whether taken as a book of faith or a cultural artifact, the New Testament is among the most significant writings the world has ever known, its web of meaning relied upon by virtually every major writer in the last 2,000 years. Yet the New Testament is not only one of Western civilization’s most believed books, but also one of its most widely disputed, often maligned, and least clearly understood, with a vast number of people unaware of how it was written and transmitted.

"Misquoting Jesus" is the only show where a six-time New York Times bestselling author and world-renowned Bible scholar uncovers the many fascinating, little known facts about the New Testament, the historical Jesus, and the rise of Christianity. The show features Dr. Bart Ehrman and host, Megan Lewis.

In this highly accessible discussion, Bart Ehrman examines the most recent textual and archaeological sources for the life of Jesus, along with the history of first-century Palestine, drawing a fascinating portrait of the man and his teachings. Ehrman shows us what historians have long known about the Gospels and the man who stands behind them. Through a careful evaluation of the New Testament (and other surviving sources, including the more recently discovered Gospels of Thomas and Peter), Ehrman proposes that Jesus can be best understood as an apocalyptic prophet.

This fundamental historical question and its complex answer speak penetratingly to the spiritual impulses, concerns, and beliefs that have played a seminal role in our world, even as they reveal the foundation of history’s most global religious movement, and fresh insights into the Western world's single most influential human being. Tackling all of these matters and more, Great Courses favorite Professor Ehrman returns with the unprecedented historical inquiry of How Jesus Became God.

From the late Roman Empire all the way to our own time, no continuously existing institution or belief system has wielded as much influence as Christianity, no figure as much as Jesus. Worshipped around the globe by more than a billion people, he is undoubtedly the single most important figure in the story of Western civilization and one of the most significant in world history altogether.
