This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Art Tour to Northern Capitals of Europe MY book pretends to be nothing more nor less than its title indicates. It is expressly the record of an Art Tour; it does not profess to give descriptions of scenery, or to deal with matters of science. I have endeavoured to put into as concise and at; tractive a form as possible all the information I could gather during a journey taken in the summer of 1870, for the purpose of collecting whatever art materials might be scattered over the Northern Capitals of Europe. The territory, though not unexplored, had scarcely become beaten ground. I may say that the route was new and informing to myself, for though familiar with the chief galleries and museums of Europe, I had still to make acquaintance with the art treasures of Copen hagen, Stockholm, St. Petersburg, and Moscow.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notices on the Northern Capitals of Europe I was desirous of seeing something of the state of Art in the North of Europe, and undertook a journey to search its Capitals. I had already visited Holland, but have added a relation of what pictures and objects I most admired there in my present tour. Others who travel in the same route, and who shall have honoured my work with a perusal, may perhaps differ in their choice and judgment. I do not pretend to lay down any law for admiration; taste for statues, temples, and paintings, is like that for women - black, brown.

Gloomy-looking inn, 'is at no time an object of eu livening suggestion and the spectacle is not at its best when the mouldy tombstones and fune real umbrage have received the ineffectual refresh ment of a dull, moist snow-fall. If, while the air is thickened by this frosty drizzle, the calendar should happen to indicate that the blessed vernal season is already six weeks old, it will be admitted that no depressing influence is absent from the scene. This fact was keenly felt on a certain 12th of May, upwards of thirty years since, by a lady who stood looking out of one of the windows of the best hotel in the ancient city of Boston. She had stood there for half an hour stood there, that is, at intervals; for from time to time she turned back into the room and measured its length with a restless step. In the chimney-place was a red. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches From French Travel The great cities of Europe, in Rome (old or New), in Athens, in Venice or Florence, in Cologne, hardly in Rheims or Rouen. Such cities can belong to him only as they belong to countless others. But a smaller city, known perhaps before by name and little more, when it has been once examined in this way, becomes a kind of possession. The central French cities have special opportunities in this way. Every one has a history; few have, what so many Italian cities have, an European history; but all have a history of some kind - a history which has an interest, especially when spelled out on the spot among the monuments of the spot. Each city had its bishops; most of them had counts or other lords. And the doings of those bishops and counts are pleas ant to study, at all events under the shadow of their own churches and castles. There were municipalities also, and there is a certain satisfaction in an age of monotonous prefects and mayors, when one finds for oneself, from some epitaph or other inscription, that the magistrates of one town were consuls, those of another those of a third eapz'louls. A few days' ex amination of this kind will not of course put the tra veller on a level with the local antiquary in point of local information. But such an examination, carried on in several places, will perhaps open to the inquirer some things in each place which the local antiquary fails to see. He will actually know far less, of each place than he who has given his life to the study of that place; but he will be better able than the man who has studied one place only to compare one city with another, and to mark at a glance what is most truly characteristic of.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from European Cities at Work Some years ago I wrote a book which bore the title "The City: The Hope of Democracy." The subtitle was received with protest by some, with incredulity by others. There was little to justify hope at that time. Our cities were under the searchlight, and the evils disclosed seemed inherent in great industrial aggregations of people. How could the city govern itself honestly and efficiently under democratic forms: how could it assimilate great masses of untrained foreign born people; how could it relieve poverty, vice, and disease? The city seemed to many to be the behemoth of civilization. Since then there have been house-cleanings all over the land. A new feeling of confidence has arisen, in which democracy is the dominant note. Reform has brought with it the commission form of government, simple, direct primaries, the short ballot, and the abolition of the party emblem on the one hand, and on the other the ownership or control of public-service corporations, the protection of human health and life, the play-ground, and, more recently, the comprehensive planning and building of cities.

Download or read book The Government of European Cities (Classic Reprint) written by William Bennett Munro and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of European Cities The purpose of this volume is to explain, in a general way, the structure and functions of city government in three European countries, and to contrast these, wherever they may be appropriately compared, with the structure and functions of city government in the United States. It has been my aim to describe who the city authorities are, how they are chosen, what they do, and how they do it; but not to examine in detail the physical operation of municipal services or the minutiae of municipal administration. Considerable attention has been devoted to the relations of the civic and state authorities in each of these countries; for the writer believes that this is one of the most important of all the phases of local administration. The book is intended to afford an introduction to the study of European city governments, and no attempt has been made to deal in exhaustive fashion with any aspect of the subject. To bring the narrative within reasonable compass it has been necessary to omit many matters of some importance, and to deal in a paragraph with other things which might well have a page. With this in mind an endeavor has been made to indicate in the footnotes convenient sources from which further information may be drawn by readers who may become interested in any part of the general field. In the task of preparing the volume I have received generous and valued assistance from many quarters. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical and Architectural Sketches: Chiefly Italian The present collection is wholly Italian, except that to the account of Ravenna I thought it well to join three other pieces, which, as describing Imperial dwell ing-places elsewhere, had a' close connexion historically, though not geographically. Of two of these cities, Ravenna and Trier, I have spoken more at length in articles in the British Quarterly Review but, as those articles rather belong to a series of a different character, that seemed no reason for suppressing the papers which gave my impressions on the spot. I hope that I may some day be able to continue the present attempt by other collections, from our own island, from France and other parts of Gaul, from Germany, and, above all, from Dalmatia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Civic Art in Northern Europe: A Report to the Art Commission of the City of New York, October 12, 1903 However, where there is art feeling or a widespread appreciation of the beauti ful, there art finds expression consciously or unconsciously. As one would expect, the most artistic street fixtures are generally found in France and Belgium, and the least artistic in Russia. Paris, Brussels and Copenhagen have the finest street lamps. In the last mentioned city, openwork steel construction has been utilized for electric lamp and trolley poles more effectively than elsewhere. Budapest has a few posts where flowers and foliage plants have been used to advantage. The street name signs of Paris, consisting of a blue enameled plate set at an angle with the post so as to reflect the light of the lamp and thus be legible day or night, are both artistic and useful, and the same scheme has been adopted for indicating house numbers. The tramway stations of Brussels are improving year by year, and are vastly superior to those of Paris. Vienna and Budapest have the most tasteful public comfort stations.
