Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Voltaire, Vol. 25: A Contemporary Version It is now time to return to the ruins of Rome, and that shadow of the throne of the Caesars, which began to appear again in Germany. It was yet uncertain who was to reign in Rome, or what was to be the fate of Italy. The German emperors thought themselves by right masters of the whole western empire: and yet they were scarcely sovereigns in Germany, where the great feudal governments of the lords and bishops began to take deep root. The Norman princes, who had conquered Apulia and Calabria, formed a new power. The Venetians had, by their example, inspired all the great towns of Italy with the love of liberty and independence. The popes were not yet sovereigns, but wanted to be so. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
