Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The Rise of the Republic of Venice: The Arnold Prize Essay, 1876

Lapse of a few generations shews t e republic courted and res ted by the surrounded states; while as she advances towar s her splendid prime, such facts as the commerce of the world almost monopolized by her traders, the sea dominated by her ?eets, the Eastern Empire overthrown and restored by her power, will force us to admit that she is sans égal; and that the panegyric of Wordsworth, poetry though it he, does not fail to express a literal and sober truth.
