Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from St. Teresa (1515-1582) And Her First English Daughters In 1474, Ferdinand, Prince of Aragon, married Isabella, Queen of Castile and Leon - Shakespeare´s "Queen of earthly queens," Bacon´s "Corner stone of the greatness of Spain," Aubrey de Vere´s "great and holy creature, sweet and brave, type of faithfulness in word and deed, flower of all perfections known on earth." In truth, she came as near, perhaps, as could an earthly king or queen to the ideal sovereign; and - at least in his early manhood - Ferdinand was not unworthy to reign at her side. Five years after their marriage he succeeded to his father´s crown, and the kingdoms of Castile and Aragon were again united. Then began the golden age of Spain: the insolence and rapacity of the grandees yielded to the sweetness and strength of Isabella; the peasants could raise their heads as well as their hearts and hands; and, as the Sovereigns passed from one tribunal to another, to preside over each in the old Castilian style, justice and peace followed in their train. The whole face of the country was changed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
