Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the tale of Venice, how it came to be, its rise to power, and its ultimate fall. Venice was built on many islands on the coast of Italy, which provided a natural protection from enemies. The location meant it was also a great place for trade. The author separates the history of Venice into seven ages, likening it to the seven ages of man. The 'Infancy' stage is when the city was first founded, its early struggles, and how it dealt with the threat of barbarians. The 'Schoolboy' stage is how the city developed after dealing with the barbarian threat. The 'Lover' stage is where Venice establishes its wealth and achieves a level of independence and stability. The 'Soldier' stage is the longest and undoubtedly the most eventful. It is when Venice expanded its power, fought off enemies, and expanded its trade influence. The 'Justice' stage is when Venice's government becomes highly refined, and its wealth brings artistic and academic benefits to the city. The 'Pantaloon' stage is where Venice begins to weaken with a loss of its monopoly on trade and suffering from internal problems. The final stage, the 'Last Age', is a brief look at the final days of the Venetian Republic and the loss of its independence The narrative of Venice is a fascinating tale of a city's rise from humble beginnings to the height of power, followed by its eventual decline. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
