Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Scenes and Shrines in Tuscany To all those who, by their writings or their sympathies, have helped me in my work, I wish to express my thanks, and am indebted for much information to the Italian Life in Town and Country, by Mr. Luigi Villari; to the Uffizio della Settlmana Santa, by Monsignor Martini; for some details of the life of David Lazzaretti, the prophet of Monte Amiata, to Professor Barzalotti´s interesting book on the subject; and to many ancient Italian writers who have long since passed beyond the reach of my thanks. If any other of the books, prose and poetry, which have interested and informed me during my study of Tuscan life, have influenced or aided me, leaving impressions which I cannot trace to their source, I here offer my thanks to their authors, be they who they may; but my true teacher from first to last has been Italy herself, my best book the open page of the Tuscan country, traced over with the daily doings of the Tuscan folk; and for a book and teacher so beautiful, a leisure in which to study, so blessed, there is but one fitting word, "Laus Deo!"
