L'Histoire, mais pas comme on l'apprend dans les livres, comme un chapelet de dates, de lieux, d'événements.. L'Histoire vue à travers le petit bout de la lorgnette, au quotidien, des histoires. 1001 histoires insolentes, 1001 histoires insolites. Ces épisodes ont été choisis, non pour leur valeur morale forcément, mais plutôt pour ce qu'ils ont de plaisant. Car on peut parfaitement se cultiver en s'amusant, sans se prendre la tête. Ainsi, on passe de l'Antiquité à une période récente, en passant par Henri IV, Louis XIV, et Napoléon, et leurs Cours respectives, leurs courtisans, leurs favorites. Sans oublier les "monstres" comme Diogène, Voltaire, Piron, et tant d'autres....Quelques-uns des noms mentionnés: Henri IV, Ésope, Le Dante, Platon, Alexandre, Raphaël, Bacon, Thomas More, Cicéron, Pic de la Mirandole, Turenne, Diogène, Bayard, François Ier, Scipion, Arnaud, Plutarque, Malherbe, Rembrandt, Mme de Montespan, Fontenelle, Bourdaloue, Mme de Staël, Amyot, Ménage, Solon, Dangeau, Catherine de Médicis, Alexandre Sévère, Duchesse d'Aiguillon, Xerxès, Eschyle, Louis XIV, Bassompierre, La Maupin, Voltaire, Thémistocle, Tibère, Duc de Vendôme, Cardinal du Bellay, Villars, Benserade, Cambyse, Bussy d'Amboise, Boileau, Duc de Guise, Henri III, Jacques Ier, La Fontaine, Louis XII, Jules César, Christophe Colomb, Grillon, Denis le Tyran, Domitien, Duc d'Enghien, Jean Galéas, Saint-Aignan, Mademoiselle de Scudéry, Sésostris, Socrate, Pope, Scarron, Pythagore, Régnier, Rabelais, etc.

Fue expulsado de la escuela y los trabajos que encontraba le duraban menos que una pompa de jabón. A los 35 años emprendió viaje a Jerusalén, donde vivía un pariente suyo de nombre José Karimastea que era miembro del Sanedrín, el cual utilizó su influencia para conseguirle un empleo como maestro en un colegio de pago. Sin embargo, un percance con un alumno pone punto y final a su corta carrera de docente cuando Mariano Airgamboy -sumo sacerdote y padre del alumno- lo expulsa del colegio.

You have no sperm. That odd yet impactful statement hit me like a slap in the face and marked the beginning of my infertility journey; a journey that was embarrassing, frustrating, tragic, and self-defining. The quest to have a biological child led to urologists, operating tables, and fertility clinics. Needles, medications, and disappointment littered the path, but an enduring hunger to create our family pushed us forward.One in eight couples battle infertility, but it remains a taboo secret with many associated misconceptions. The default setting regarding infertility for many is, "I wonder what's wrong with her." IVF'd seeks to change the narrative by breaking that assumed notion. IVF'd takes the reader through a real-life account from the perspective of a male, presented through the lens of humor, to help humanize infertility. The hope of our story is to help others relate, understand they are not alone, and recognize that while infertility is ultimately no joke, it can be quite hilarious at times. A personal account of male factor infertility is incredibly rare to non-existent, but it should be a part of anyone's library who is affected by infertility or is seeking to understand and support a friend or family member facing such a daunting endeavor.
