Wintering in the Riviera by WILLIAM NEALS REYNOLDS PROFESSOR OF BIOCHEMISTRY WILLIAM. MILLER Pdf

Excerpt from Wintering in the Riviera: With Notes of Travel in Italy and France, and Practical Hints to Travellers People are therefore more than ever thrown upon reading of a different description; and notwithstanding the various books which have been published upon the Riviera, and the still larger list of those upon Italy, I think none of them, so far as I have seen, are exactly on the same lines as the present. It is, indeed, not a little noticeable that so many. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Italy by K. Bædeker Pdf

Excerpt from Italy: Handbook for Travellers The object of the Handbook for Italy, like that of the Editors other works of the same description, is to enable the traveller to dispense as far as possible with the services of guides, valets-de-place, and others of the same class, to supply him with a few remarks on the progress of civilisation and art among the people he is about to visit, and generally to aid him in deriving enjoyment and instruction from his tour. The Handbook will, moreover, inform the reader how to visit the chief objects of interest with the greatest possible economy of time, money, and, it may be added, temper; for in few countries is the travellers patience more severely put to the test than in Italy. The Editor will endeavour to accompany the enlightened traveller through the streets of the Italian towns, to all the principal edifices and works of art; and to guide his steps amidst the exquisite scenery in which Italy so richly abounds. The Editor has repeatedly explored most of the places described, and the Handbook is mainly the result of his own observation. The present edition has been carefully revised, and provided with the most recent information obtainable. The Editor will highly appreciate any bond fide information with which travellers may favour him and he gratefully acknowledges that already received, which in many instances has been most serviceable. The Maps and Plans, upon which special care has been bestowed, will abundantly suffice for the use of the ordinary traveller. The inexperienced are recommended, when steering their course with the aid of a plan, before starting, to mark with a coloured pencil the point for which they are bound. This will often enable them to avoid a circuitous route. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Studies of Travel by Edward A. Freeman Pdf

Excerpt from Studies of Travel: Italy The city of Maecenas, and of a whole crowd of famous men of later times, shows no outward signs of being much frequented by travellers. There is some difficulty there in getting SO much as an Italian newspaper, and, though excellent photographs have been taken of some of the chief build ings, they must be sought for at Flor ence; they are not to be bought at Arezzo. Yet the old Etruscan city has many attractions, among them surely the singular cleanness of its streets, and, above all, that clear and pure air which is thought to have had some thing to do with nourishing the genius of.

Historical, Literary, and Artistical Travels in Italy by M. Valery Pdf

Excerpt from Historical, Literary, and Artistical Travels in Italy: A Complete and Methodical Guide for Travellers and Artists As to the historical and literary part, for which a life past in the midst of books had better prepared me, I have written under the belief that the'reform effected in history in our days, that the system of the true, the painting of particulars, might be likewise extended to a traveller's narrative, to which the principles of the pz'ctur'esque school seemed to me peculiarly applicable. The me morable events, the great personages, the poetical reminiscences of Italy, are therefore interwoven with my account of places and monuments. When inscriptions were characteristic, I have not shrunk from giving them many a time have they revealed to me some touching misfortune, or some superior talent left in obscu rity and neglect. In examining libraries, I have endeavoured to make the history of books bear on the history of men, and to render bibliography instructive and philosophical. The statistical data are drawn from local and official sources, and without going to excess, I thought they might present new views, and some; times supply the place of longer dissertations on the country. Welcomed by my colleagues the librarians, acquainted with mbet of the Italian literati, I have derived invaluable assistance from their obliging answers to my different inquiries. In fine, I have attempted to restore to the poets, the artists, the literati, and all the persons I have introduced, their true Italian physiognomy, too often distorted by the idle fancies of the English, the sentimenta lity of the Germans, or the philosophical spirit of the French.

The Cicerone by Jacob Burckhardt Pdf

Excerpt from The Cicerone: An Art Guide to Painting in Italy, for the Use of Travellers and Students And thus the scientific expert may hold Dr Burckhardt's Cicerone to be old-fashioned and superseded. As an intro duction to the study of Italian Art it still holds its own place and fully justifies a reprint. More than that, it occupies a unique place; for the overwhelming mass of literature on Italian Art, printed during the last two decades, includes not a single volume that can vie with Dr Burckhardt's, as regards terse completeness and practical arrangement. It is the only book on the subject that combines the qualities of a useful guide-book with those of a chrono logical history of the entire _art of Italy - an achievementf that would be impossible without an ingenious and elaborate system of sub-divisions, cross-references and indices. Dr Burckhardt's history is indeed a Cicerone - a guide and instructor, and it fulfilsin the fullest sense of the word the function claimed for it by the sub-title of the first German edition: An Introduction to the Enjoyment of the Art Treasures of Italy.
