Produktinformationen zu „History of Venice (World Digital Library Edition) (PDF)“
The beauty of Venice lies not only in her architecture, paintings, and literature, but stems from a history rich in grandeur, pain, and struggle. Beginning with the island’s source of refuge for those fleeing from the wrath of Attila, Wiel shows how Venice – despite being located at the crux of the Western and Byzantine empires – secured her independence and grew in power. “Venice was an exacting mistress, and all who served her had to abrogate self and devout themselves heart and soul to her service.”With the discovery of the New World and an alternative route to India, however, Venice was no longer a key player in trade, and her power diminished. Wiel’s comprehensive work is the first to personify the picturesque tales of Venice’s struggle as she presents how the historical backdrop of events, characters, and settings in Venice play an important function in describing the social, political and economic influence.
