The Republic of Venice was the first great economic, cultural, and naval power of the modern Western world. After winning the struggle for ascendency in the late 13th century, the Republic enjoyed centuries of unprecedented glory and built a trading empire which at its apogee reached as far afield as China, Syria, and West Africa. This golden period only drew to an end with the Republic’s eventual surrender to Napoleon. The Venetians illuminates the character of the Republic during these illustrious years by shining a light on some of the most celebrated personalities of European history—Petrarch, Marco Polo, Galileo, Titian, Vivaldi, Casanova... Frequently, though, these emblems of the city found themselves at odds with the Venetian authorities, who prized stability above all else and were notoriously suspicious of any "cult of personality." Was this very tension perhaps the engine for the Republic’s unprecedented rise? Rich with biographies of some of the most exalted characters who have ever lived, The Venetians is a refreshing and authoritative new look at the history of the most evocative of city-states.

In 1687 the Venetian commander Francesco Morosini seized Athens. In 1689 the Peace of Carlowitz assigned the city to the Turks. This book presents some original texts, presented only in the original Italian, and an (English) introduction to the short-lived occupation and the reasons for the Venetian withdrawal. Most of the book is devoted to presenting extracts from the Istoria della Lega Ortodossa contra il Turco by Cristoforo Ivanovich, Canon of San Marco. Ivanovich's account is then checked against, and corrected by, other archival sources. The appendixes present a portrait of Louis, Prince of Turenne, an account of the siege of Mistra, a study of the withdrawal of the army from Athens, and a discussion of the opposition to Morosini.

Tracing the development of Venetian fashion and their appearance in contemporary works of art, this book discusses the unique attitude of the Venetian Republic to the dress of its patricians, its citizens and its women, as well as to the dress of foreigners. It relies extensively on the views of the Senate on dress, and considers Venice's contempt for the current fashions in the rest of Italy. There is also a discussion of the position of the tailors of Venice and their methods of work as well as an invaluable appendix detailing the textiles then in use at the time.This book is essential to students and teachers of the history of art, the history of dress and the theatre as well as to those interested in Venetian social life during the period covered, and in Italian renaissance studies.
