Excerpt from Sordello Cunizza: Fact, Legend, PoetryDeeds of cruelty and villainy, regarded as the agents of the wrath of God, and in one way or another carrying forward the purpose of that mysterious Providence which builds up and casts down, and out of the ruins of families, cities, states, forms a people, and gives us that great fact, - Italy, of the Middle Ages. Look back, see these men in action at the momentous awakening of the life of the thirteenth century. What a drama it was! They put in play all the forces of human nature, they stir it to its depths, they give solemn historic proof of the end of ambition and egotism, they show the distressing consequences of the complete sacri fiee or ignorance of what is, in a measure, the professed aim of our modern life - the greatest good of the greatest number.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
