Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Rule of the Monk, Vol. 1 of 2: Or, Rome in the Nineteenth Century
The world has been contented to begin there with him, for the last two thousand years; and the fact is a great precedent against prefaces - especially since, as a rule, no one ever reads them till the book itself has been perused.

Excerpt from The Rule of the Monk, Vol. 1 of 2: Or, Rome in the Nineteenth Century
The renowned writer of Cæsar's "Commentaries" did not think it necessary to furnish a preface for those notable compositions; and, in truth, the custom is altogether of modern times. The ancient heroes who became authors and wrote a book, left their work to speak for itself - "to sink or swim," we had almost said, but that is not exactly the case. Caesar carried those very "Commentaries" between his teeth when he swam ashore from the sinking galley at Alexandria; but it never occurred to him to supply posterity with a prefatory flourish. With a soldierly brevity he begins those famous chapters at the beginning - "Omnis Gallia in tres parles," &c.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the struggle for Italian unity and freedom against the oppressive papal rule of mid-19th century Rome and throughout Italy. The author's experiences in the conflict provide unique insights into the motivations, hardships, and brutal realities experienced by the Italian people. Thematic depth is added by the inclusion of cultural, social, and political context, which subtly highlights the ideological conflict between the desire for freedom and self-governance, and the suffocating control of the Papal States. The book should appeal to those interested in Italian unification and European history.
