Blut, Legenden und Machtkämpfe: In unserer Auftaktepisode zur neuen „Ritter, Tod und Teufel“ - Ministaffel nehmen wir euch in das 16. Jahrhundert und zu den Ursprüngen der Legenden und Tatsachenberichte um die berüchtigten Blutgräfin Elisabeth Báthory mit. Nach einem blutigen Einstieg im vorweihnachtlichen, kaiserlichen Wien, enthüllen wir die historischen Quellen hinter den Mythen – und fragen uns: Was ist dran an all den Geschichten über Mord, Folter und Intrigen?Wir erkunden dafür das düstere Leben auf der Festung Ecsed – Stammsitz der mächtigen Báthorys. Es führt uns in Elisabeths Kindheit und beleuchtet die brutalen Sitten in einer Gesellschaft, gespalten zwischen Adel, Klerus und rechtlosen Bauern. Und immer ist die uralte und weit verzweigte Báthory-Familie mit Schwert und Rüstung dabei - so auch bei der Niederschlagung des blutigen Bauernaufstand von 1514 und der grausamen Hinrichtung Georg Dózsas auf einem glühenden Thron.Executive Producer: Ruben Schulze-Fröhlich, Christoph Falke Autor: Lutz NeumannRedaktion: Volker Strübing, Anna MüllerleileHosts: Anna Müllerleile, Michael LottSounddesign: Fabian SchäfflerProduktionsleitung: Annabell Rühlemann Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Dr. Mark Ettensohn responds to a common question: How can someone with a perfectly normal and mostly happy childhood develop narcissistic personality disorder? The discussion challenges the widespread misconception that narcissism is simply a personality type, a collection of traits, or the result of genetics alone. Dr. Ettensohn explains that pathological narcissism is a disorder of self-esteem regulation and identity formation, not just a pattern of behavior. Drawing on clinical research and developmental theory, he explores how early experiences that appear loving and stable can still leave important parts of the self unseen, unrecognized, or conditionally valued. These subtle, chronic relational injuries, repeated over years rather than occurring as a single traumatic event, can distort the developing self's capacity to maintain a stable and realistic sense of worth. The episode distinguishes between “popular narcissism,” which focuses on abusive behavior, and clinical narcissism, which reflects an internal system of dysregulated self-esteem. Through metaphor and clinical reflection, Dr. Ettensohn illustrates how a child can grow up in an environment that looks healthy on the surface yet still learn to equate love with performance, value with achievement, and safety with control.
