Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1877 edition. Excerpt: ... Unfortunately for the early history of Sta. Croce, the archives of the monastery were nearly all destroyed by the floods from the Arno, which took place in 1333 * and in 1557; but the scanty records which remain inform us that in the year of the foundation, Cardinal Matteo d'Acquasparta, general of the Franciscan Order, proclaimed an indulgence to whoever should contribute money for the pious work.t We also learn that in 1320 the church, though still unfinished, was opened for public worship; that in 1334 Giotto was chosen master of the works; and that in 1371 a Board of six citizens was appointed by the Signory of Florence to superintend the building both of the Church of Sta. Croce and of the Cathedral. Political disturbances caused some delay, and the friars were obliged to resort to fresh devices to raise a fund for the continuation of their church: they were assisted by two of the guilds, or arti-- the Mercatanti (merchants), and the Calimala (dealers in foreign wool), who undertook to collect the required sum. The exterior of Sta. Croce has little left of the original construction. On the northern side is a porch, under which are some curious early monuments; the front, however, continued a wall of rough masonry. In the fifteenth century one of the Quaratesi family offered to defray the expenses of a handsome facade, but appended the condition that the arms of his family should be introduced among the ornaments; to this, however, neither the friars nor the Board * This flood is recorded in a Latin inscription on a tablet on the Ponte Vecchio. t Cardinal Matteo d'Acquasparta is mentioned by Dante in his "Paradiso," as having relaxed some of the severities of the Franciscan Order.--Paradiso, canto xii. v. 124. would consent, and the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Walks in Florence, Vol. 1 of 2 Whilst every visitor to Florence speaks in raptures of her beauty, few remain long enough to become really acquainted with her Art-treasures, her historical reminiscences, or the character of her people. It is in the churches, palaces, and streets of Florence, within the compass of daily walks, that we must search for the true history of her citizens. Simple, courteous, yet reserved, humorous and fond of ease, yet proud of traditional industry and freedom, but still more proud of the traditional greatness of his city, the Florentine retains many of the virtues, with some of the defects of his Republican forefathers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Venturing into Usefulness, the second volume of The Selected Papers of Jane Addams, documents the experience of this major American historical figure, intellectual, social activist, and author between June 1881, when at twenty-one she had just graduated from Rockford Female Seminary, and early 1889, when she was on the verge of founding the Hull-House settlement with Ellen Gates Starr. During these years she was developing into the social reformer and advocate of women's rights, socioeconomic justice, and world peace she would eventually become. She evolved from a high-minded but inexperienced graduate of a women's seminary into an educated woman and seasoned traveler well-exposed to elite culture and circles of philanthropy. Artfully annotated, The Selected Papers of Jane Addams offers an evocative choice of correspondence, photographs, and other primary documents, presenting a multi-layered narrative of Addams's personal and emerging professional life. Themes inaugurated in the previous volume are expanded here, including dilemmas of family relations and gender roles; the history of education; the dynamics of female friendship; religious belief and ethical development; changes in opportunities for women; and the evolution of philanthropy, social welfare, and reform ideas.

Download or read book Florencewalks written by Anne Holler and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of Florence's art is not in her world-famous museums but in her streets, and those treasures can only be seen by those who explore this lovely, medieval city on foot. The four intimate walking tours in Florencewalks lead you through centuries of Italian history and architecture--around corners that hide marble gods and goddesses, down hushed alleys pervaded by the aroma of spices and pastas, out onto sun-washed piazzas flanked by churches and palazzos and open-air markets. Easily completed in a morning of afternoon, each walk includes plenty of spots along the way to sit and read, rest, or browse. In addition to maps of each walk, and more than thirty photographs, Florencewalks also contains a detailed section of visitor information and advice, a concise chronology of the city's history, an index, and a list of particularly special trattorias, wine bars, and shops.
