It is universally recognized as part of the artistic and architectural patrimony of humanity and in 1987 was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Yet, most people do not know the story of Venice. This book offers a unique portrait of Venice and weaves together many diverse subjects &– art, ecology, travel, history, all enriched by original line drawings of a unique style found on every page.A Sketch of Venetian History illuminates the Venetian Republic's history through six major eras &– from its early ecological formations, through its modest beginnings, to the height and potency of the Grand Republic, to its collapse and to its modern day challenges posed by environmentalism and massive tourism.

Not illustrated. 1832 edition. Excerpt: ...History; and in the instance mentioned above, the reconciliation of Julius to Venice removed all appearance of inconsistency. More than ever alarmed by the increasing influence of the French within the Alps, to which the failure of Maximilian before Padua had largely contributed, the Pope resolved no longer to support the impolitic League to which his passion had given birth. Nevertheless, while receiving the Venetians once again into communion with the Church, he rigidly exacted most of those penalties which the Power of the Keys enabled him to demand. Their deputation of Nobles, instead of displaying customary diplomatic pomp, entered Eome by night, clad in penitential garb; testified their contrition in the Seven Basilicce; and humbled themselves upon their knees, while supplicating absolution, before the Papal throne, ostentatiously raised in front of the. brazen portals of the Vatican. It was esteemed no ordinary condonation that the stripes were remitted, which it was sometimes customary for the Pope and Cardinals to Erano entrati con aUti e con modi miserdbili i sei Oratori del Eenato Fcneziano, i quali essendo constieti a entrant conpompa efasto jrandistimo.

Venice in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries by F. C. Hodgson Pdf

Excerpt from Venice in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries: A Sketch of Venetian History From the Conquest of Constantinople to the Accession of Michele Steno, A. D. 1204-1400 I ought to add that what I said in the Introduction to my former book did less than justice to the great work of Romanin, which I have learnt to trust more and more. He is not a master of style, but his Storz'a Documcnz'ala is an early model, and a very good one, of the kind of history founded on original documents that is becoming every year more and more the most useful and highly appreci ated product of historical work.
