These lectures review briefly the spectra and classification of active galactic nuclei (AGN), including quasi-stellar objects (QSOs), and the properties of their ‘host’ galaxies; starbursts (SB) and the possible association between galaxy interactions, SB, and AGN. I also review their cosmological distribution and evolution before discussing possible explanations for the observations. In particular, emphasis is laid on the role of stars, and the hydrodynamics of the Interstellar Medium (ISM) of active galaxies.
