Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anglo-Roman Papers: The English Palace in Rome; The Eldest Natural Son of Charles II; Memoirs of Cardinal Erskine, Papal Envoy to the Court of George III The following papers require little in way of preface or introduction. The reader need scarcely be reminded that the account of the English Palace is by no means complete, and that no attempt has been made to write at length the histories of its successive owners. The many extracts from the State Papers concerning Lorenzo Campeggi were made by the author some five-and-twenty years ago, when he thought of collecting materials for a life of that great man (a work which remains for an abler hand to accomplish) but they refer chiefly to the Divorce case and Campeggi´s two missions to Henry VIII. His missions to Germany, which have been but briefly noticed, are far more important in relation to Luther´s revolt against the Church. Of the eldest natural son of Charles II. nothing need be here said, save that the precise parentage of his mother, Mary Stuart, and the particulars of the death and burial of James Stuart the younger, the grandson of Charles II., are yet to be discovered. The memoirs of Cardinal Erskine, now first published, give but a sketch of his eventful life, with few comments from the author, who might perhaps have enlarged on many topics, such as the amiable character of the Cardinal, shown by his patience under adversity and by the warm friendships he contracted with many leading men of his day.
