Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Path to Rome
And why (you will say) is all this put by itself in what anglo-saxons call a Foreword, but gentlemen a Preface? Why, it is because I have noticed that no book can appear without some such thing tied on before it; and as it is folly to neglect the fashion, be certain that I read some eight or nine thousand of them to be sure of how they were written and to be safe from generalising on too frail a basis.

To every honest reader that may purchase, hire, or receive this book, and to the reviewers also (to whom it is of triple profit), greeting and whatever else can be had for nothing. If you should ask how this book came to be written, it was in this way. One day as I was wandering over the world I came upon the valley where I was born, and stopping there a moment to speak with them all when I hadargued politics with the grocer, and played the great lord with the notary-public, and had all but made the carpenter a Christian by force of rhetoric what should I note (after so many years) but the old tumble-down and gaping church, that I love more than mother-church herself, all scraped, white, rebuilt, noble and new, as though it had been finished yesterday.

Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a captivating journey through the countryside of France, taking the reader on a pilgrimage from the authorââ â¢s birthplace to Rome. The authorââ â¢s journey is not simply a physical one, but a meditation on the nature of travel, the meaning of the journey, and the importance of beginnings. The author, a veteran of the French army, is a keen observer of human nature, and his reflections on the journey are infused with the wit and wisdom gained from his military experiences. He shares charming anecdotes, like the story of a peasantââ â¢s journey to sell his prized wine, and uses these stories to explore the universal human struggles of ambition, pride, and the need for connection. The author also offers insightful commentary on the nature of writing, questioning the artificial rules and expectations imposed upon authors. He is a master of language and weaves his thoughts into a tapestry of personal anecdotes, philosophical musings, and literary observations. His journey, both physical and intellectual, encourages the reader to consider the significance of beginnings in all aspects of life, reminding us that while the first step might seem small, it often leads to unexpected and profound discoveries. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781440054044_0
