Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of a Prisoner of State in the Spielberg of Spielberg, Vol. 1 of 2 Few works have in these times excited a deeper or more extensive interest than Silvio Pellico´s account of his imprisonment. It was in fact impossible that his great virtues and piety, combined with so much suffering, should not at once gain the admiration and sympathy of his readers. Some of his statements concerning the miseries he had to endure appeared at first so incredible, that doubts were even entertained as to his veracity. It was then however but little known that the first edition of his "Prigioni" had been printed at Turin, where a watchful censorship, wholly subservient to Austria, was more likely to have suppressed many obnoxious truths, than to have allowed any groundless charge against that Power.
