Excerpt from Medieval Italy: From Charlemagne to Henry VII Without discussing it, we have accepted from foreign writers the verdict that Italians are by nature a people indifferent to religion, almost devoid, in fact, of the religious sense. It has been said and repeated of us that we have always occupied ourselves exclu sively with jurisprudence, commerce, industry, litera ture, and art. Even in the Crusades we are said to have seen only an occasion for money-making without sharing, to the slightest degree, in the uncontrollable religious enthusiasm which urged other nations to the East for the liberation of Christ's sepulchre from the hands of the Infidel. Such remarks would almost lead one to suppose that St. Benedict, St. Francis, Abbot Joachim, even Arnold of Brescia, Leo I., Gregory the Great, Gregory VII., and many others, were not natives of Italy. And yet our whole history, down to the death of Dante Alighieri, is a continual proof of the contrary. It was during that period that the religious life rose to the highest degree of import ance, and we find no great political event that was not preceded, accompanied, and animated by some religious movement or religious contest. In our country indiffe rence began with the Humanists and the Renascence. Indeed, one of the most striking facts of our history is the sudden - almost instantaneous - change which, from this point of view, then occurred in Italy. Between Dante and Petrarca and Boccaccio, between the Vita N nova, the Divine Comedy, and the Decameron, a century might have elapsed, and yet they were almost contemporary. It is conceivable that foreigners for whom the Renascence is the golden age not only of art and literature but also of our history as a whole, should only see men of the Renascence at every point and in every period. But it is not conceivable that Italians, who ought to understand that in this way the most varied types and periods become confused, should follow the same course. To correct this error, which seems to me a very grave one, it is neither necessary to formulate judgments nor to enter into discussions, much less to write biased history; it is sufficient to narrate well-proved events without muti Iating them in any way, and giving to each its natural proportions.

THE placing by Leo III. of the Imperial crown upon the head of Charlemagne in St. Peter's on Christmas Day of the year 800 marked the commencement of a new era in the history of the world. But the Empire of the West, initiated at that moment in its dual character--political and religious--contained within itself the germs of infinite discords and calamities. As Roman and Christian it should have symbolised the union of nations; but meanwhile the Empire of the East, heir to Rome, continued to exist at Constantinople. Furthermore, the Western Empire was composed of very dissimilar races which, until then divided and subdivided among themselves, had often been at war with one another. The greatest and most immediate danger to the unity of the Empire came from the German principle of succession, according to which the State, as the property of the Sovereign, must be divided among his heirs. This principle, which in the past had caused many bloody wars among the Franks, promised no good for the future of the new Empire. Charlemagne, who was a very great leader of Teutonic peoples, but who lacked the true genius of organisation, held it together by the power of his sword and the strength of his personal authority. It was therefore easy to predict that his death would be followed by a period of anarchy.

Vernon Lee was the pen name of Violet Paget (1856–1935) – a prolific author best known for her supernatural fiction, her support of the Aesthetic Movement and her radical polemics. She was also an active letter writer whose correspondents include many well-known figures in fin de siècle intellectual circles across Europe. However, until now no attempt has been made to make these letters widely available in their complete form. This multi-volume scholarly edition presents a comprehensive selection of her English, French, Italian, and German correspondence — compiled from more than 30 archives worldwide — that reflect her wide variety of interests and occupations as a Woman of Letters and contributor to scholarship and political activism. Letters written in a language other than English have been expertly translated by scholars Sophie Geoffroy (from the French), Crystal Hall (from the Italian), and Christa Zorn (from the German). The edition focuses on those letters concerning the writing, ideas and aesthetics that influenced Lee’s articles, books and stories. Full transcriptions of some 500 letters, covering the years 1856-1935, are arranged in chronological order along with a newly written introduction that explains their context and identifies the recipients, friends and colleagues mentioned. Since scholarship on Lee’s critical and creative output is still in the beginning stages, these letters will serve a purpose to students and researchers in a number of academic fields. In this first volume, tracing the years 1856– 1884, the assembled letters cover the beginnings of her career, encompassing her first publication, visits to London and encounters with some of the important artistic figures of the time. As her career begins to blossom, the letters also reflect the expansion of her subject matter from cultural studies and art history to novels and aesthetic philosophy. Correspondents include Lee’s parents, Matilda and Henry Paget; her brother the poet Eugene Lee-Hamilton; English poet Mary Robinson; English authors Henrietta Jenkin and Linda Villari; and Italian writers Enrico Nencioni, Mario Pratesi, and Angelo De Gubernatis, among others.
