Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Venice The Story of Venice in its entirety and completeness has yet to be written. Even in Italian a perfect work dealing with the subject has not been accomplished, though documents and histories exist in abundance from which to compile such a work; and the following pages only attempt an outline of a story whose vastness and diversity has rarely been equalled among the nations. The strange geographical position occupied by Venice; the extent of her commerce and wealth; and the height of luxury and splendour to which she attained in comparatively early ages, gild her pages with a colour and vivacity alternately bewildering and fascinating. The special feature though in her story is the preponderance of the state, and the subservience of the citizen; for Venice was an exacting mistress, and all who served her had to abrogate self and devote themselves heart and soul to her service.
