Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Collected Papers Historical, Literary, Travel and Miscellaneous, Vol. 3 The chapter in the history of the Renascence in which The Ship of Fools figures conspicuously is doubtless neither its most brilliant nor its most fascinating phase. The sphere into which we are here admitted is no hallowed grove, remote from the coarse and crass outer world, like that in which the Academicians of Florence lent ear to the celestial teachings of Diotima - no Court of artificial charm and perfumed atmosphere such as that in which Francis I was fain to pose as president. Yet the chapter in question is full of interest, as telling of sustained efforts made by a combination of serious and high-minded, devout and patriotic men; and the work which more fully than any other illustrates and attests the spirit that animated them holds a place altogether its own in the story of European letters. This place it conquered for itself by no high or rare literary merits. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
