Book Description
Excerpt from Venetia, Vol. 2 of 3 Liar, and less pleasing than impressive. His long dark locks shaded a pale and lofty brow, that well became a cast of features delicately moulded, yet reserved and haughty, and per haps even somewhat scornful. His figure, al ways slender, had set into a form of remarkable slightness and elegance, and distinguished for its symmetry. Altogether his general mien was calculated to attract attention and to excite interest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Venetia, Vol. 1 of 3 This plot of grass was separated from an extensive park, that opened in front of the hall, by very tall iron gates, on each of the pillars of which was a lion rampant supporting the escutcheon of the family. The deer wandered in this enclosed and well-wooded demesne, and about a mile from the mansion, in a direct line with the iron gates, was an old-fashioned lodge, which marked the limit of the park, and from which you emerged into a very fine avenue of limes bounded on both sides by fields. At the termination of this avenue was a strong but simple 'gate, and a woodman's cottage; and then Spread before you a vast landscape of open, wild lands, which seemed on one side inter minable, while on the other the eye rested on the dark heights of the neighbouring forest.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Bravo, Vol. 3 of 3: A Venetian Story Among the lighter and gayer barges of the patricians, a gondola of more than usual size, hut of an exterior so plain as to denote vulgar uses, came sweeping down the great canal. Its movement was leisurely, and the action of the gondoliers that of men either fatigued or little pressed for time. He who steered, guided the boat with consummate skill, but with a single hand, while his three fellows, from time to time, suffered their oars to trail on the water in very idleness. In short, it had the ordinary listless appearance of a boat returning to the city, from an excursion on the Brenta, or to some of the more distant isles.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Stones of Venice, Vol. 3: The Fall The reason of this is, that the finial is properly the orna ment of gabled architecture; it is the compliance, in the minor features of the building, with the spirit of its towers, ridged roof and spires. Venetian building is not gabled, but horizontal in its roots and general masses therefore the finial is a feature contradictory to its spirit, and adopted only in that search for morbid excitement which is the infallible indication of decline. When it occurs earlier, it is on frag ments of true gabled architecture, as, for instance, on the porch of the Carmini.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Venetians, Vol. 3: A Novel It is with you I am most angry, Benson, he said to his wife's attendant; you ought to have been wiser. I won't have you scold Benson, remonstrated Eve; it is my fault. She teased me to come home ever so long ago, and I wouldn't. I wanted to stay with Peggy till the last moment. It was like bidding her good-bye again. It may be years before we come back to Cannes. I didn't know how late it was till we were in the carriage coming home, and I began to feel rather chilly.

Book Description
Pietro Bembo (1470–1547), a Venetian nobleman, later a cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church, was a celebrated Latin stylist and was widely admired for his writings in Italian as well. His early dialogue on the subject of love influenced the development of the literary vernacular, as did his Prose della volgar lingua (1525). From 1513 to 1521 he served Pope Leo X as Latin secretary and became known as the leading advocate of Ciceronian Latin in Europe and of the Tuscan dialect within Italy. He was named official historian of Venice in 1529 and began to compose in Latin his continuation of the city's history in twelve books, covering the years from 1487 to 1513. Although the work chronicles internal politics and events, much of it is devoted to the external affairs of Venice, principally conflicts with other European states (France, Spain, the Holy Roman Empire, Milan, and the papacy) and with the Turks in the East.
