Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Crises in Venetian History' provides a compelling examination of the pivotal moments that defined the rise and endurance of the Most Serene Republic. Author Laura Maria Roberts Ragg meticulously details the series of internal and external challenges that tested the foundations of Venice, from dramatic political conspiracies to high-stakes diplomatic conflicts. The work explores the unique governance of the Doges and the strategic maritime power that allowed a city built on lagoons to become a dominant force in the Mediterranean.Through a focus on specific historical turning points, the narrative illuminates the complex social and political structures that sustained Venetian independence for centuries. Ragg analyzes how the republic navigated the pressures of the Ottoman Empire and the shifting alliances of Renaissance Europe, offering deep insights into the resilience and eventual decline of this legendary state. This book serves as an essential resource for those interested in Italian history, providing a vivid account of the triumphs and tribulations that shaped the identity of Venice. Readers will find a thorough exploration of the events that transformed the republic from a regional power into a historical icon of wealth, art, and political intrigue.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
