楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Laura Sinclair, a determined art restorer with a hidden past, arrives in Venice during the height of Carnival under the guise of a consulting expert. But Laura's true mission is far more dangerous: she must locate a lost artifact tied to an ancient Venetian society that once held the city's hidden power. Haunted by past failures and driven by a need for redemption, Laura finds herself navigating the labyrinthine canals and shadowy underworld of Venice, where secrets are as common as the masks worn by revelers.</p> <p>At a masquerade ball, Laura unexpectedly crosses paths with Marco Valenti, a charming con artist and her former lover. Their past is fraught with betrayal and unresolved tension, and Marco's appearance in Venice feels both coincidental and deliberate. As Laura and Marco are forced into an uneasy alliance, they uncover a web of hidden vaults, secret codes, and deadly traps designed to protect a power that could change the city's future forever.</p> <p>With Ricci, a ruthless antagonist, and his men constantly on their trail, Laura and Marco must outwit not only their enemies but also their own mistrust of each other. Their journey takes them deep into the catacombs beneath Venice, where they face physical and emotional challenges that test their skills and resolve. As they race against time, Laura and Marco find themselves questioning their loyalties and the true nature of the artifact they seek.</p> <p>The stakes escalate when the artifact is revealed to be more than just a key to treasureーit's a cipher to Venice's darkest secrets, capable of shifting the balance of power in the city. Marco, driven by both selfish and noble motives, makes a harrowing sacrifice to protect Laura and the artifact, forcing them both to confront their pasts and what they truly want from their futures.</p> <p>In a dramatic showdown on one of Venice's iconic bridges, Laura and Marco outsmart their pursuers, but not without paying a heavy price. The truth of the artifact is made public in a controlled revelation, aiming to protect Venice's heritage while exposing the hidden powers that have long shaped the city. As the dust settles, Laura receives an unexpected offer to lead a new expedition, leaving her to ponder the future and whether Marco will join her on another daring adventure.</p> <p>Set against the backdrop of Venice's enchanting canals and masked celebrations, The Venetian Masquerade is a thrilling tale of secrets, betrayals, and the unbreakable bond between two people searching for redemption. It's a story where every discovery unearths another layer of mystery, and where the past refuses to stay buried.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 600円

Loredana A Venetian Tale【電子書籍】[ Lauro Martines ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 1700, a Venetian priest, Fra Benedict Loredan, compiles an assembly of documents - letters, written confessions, top-secret state files, diary excerpts, pieces of a secret chronicle - which together tell the story of two lovers caught up in a dangerous and controversial revolutionary movement which attempted to do away with the two-tiered city of Venice: Leonardo da Vinci's architectural dream to segregate the rich and the poor described in his Notebooks and realised in this novel. At the centre of the narrative are two written confessions, one by a young girl from an aristocratic family - Loredana Loredan Contarini - who writes of her disastrous marriage to a sadomasochistic tyrant and her subsequent involvement with a revolutionary Friar - himself the second confessor. As both struggle to tell their tales and confess their sins, we are shown around the city of Venice as it might have been in the sixteenth-century and given pieces of a narrative which together form an explosive whole.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,338円

Venetian kauppias Rakkauden ja kaupank?ynnin ristiriita renessanssiajan Venetsiassa【電子書籍】[ William Shakespeare ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>William Shakespearen "Venetsian kauppias" on monikerroksinen n?ytelm?, joka tutkii yst?vyyden, rakkauden ja oikeudenmukaisuuden teemoja intiimisti ja intensiivisesti. Kirjan kerronta keskittyy Antonioon, venetsialaiseen kauppiaaseen, ja Shylockiin, juutalaiseen raharuhtinaaseen, jotka edustavat vastakkainasetteluja, niin taloudellisesti kuin kulttuurisesti. Kieli on rikasta ja v?rik?st?, vangiten aikakauden tunnelman ja rytmin, sek? luoden unohtumattomia hahmoja ja j?nnitt?vi? dialogeja. Teos on sek? draama ett? komedia, joka heijastaa el?m?n monimuotoisuutta ja ihmisen luonteen rajallisuutta. Kirjallinen konteksti, joka ulottuu 1500-luvun loppupuolelle, vaikuttaa vahvasti teoksen teemoihin ja luonteenpiirteisiin, n?kyen aikakauden sosiaalisessa ja kulttuurisessa j?nnityksess?. William Shakespeare, yksi l?nnen kirjallisuuden suurimmista nimist?, syntyi 1564 Stratford-upon-Avonissa ja h?n on j?tt?nyt merkitt?v?n j?ljen maailman kirjallisuuteen. Shakespearen teokset heijastavat h?nen syv?? ymm?rryst??n ihmisen luonteesta ja sosiaalisista suhteista. "Venetsian kauppias" julkaistiin ensimm?isen kerran 1600-luvun alussa aikana, jolloin yhteiskunnalliset kysymykset, kuten uskonto ja talous, olivat keski?ss?. Shakespearen oma el?m? ja aikakauden dynamiikka sek? hengellinen ja taloudellinen j?nnitys, loivat perustan t?lle teokselle, kenties tuoden esiin h?nen omat n?kemyksens? ihmisoikeuksista ja moraalista. Suosittelen "Venetsian kauppias" -teosta kaikille, jotka arvostavat syv?llist? draamaa, jossa on rikkaita teemoja ja monipuolisia hahmoja. N?ytelm? tarjoaa erinomaisen mahdollisuuden tutkia ihmisen luonteen heikkouksia ja vahvuuksia sek? asettaa kysymyksi? oikeudenmukaisuudesta ja rakkaudesta. Shakespearen mestarillinen kirjoitustyyli yhdist?? humoristiset ja traagiset elementit, luoden unohtumattoman lukukokemuksen, joka her?tt?? ajatuksia ja keskustelua yh? nykyaikana.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

Andrea and Alessia, one of the twins, begin a relationship which they initially keep hidden from everyone, including their parents and Alessia’s sister. One Saturday morning, at the train station in Venice, Andrea confuses Alessia with Alessandra, only to discover her true identity moments before becoming totally intimate with her.

Unfortunately for her, after only two weeks in Aleppo the situation takes a turn for the worse. Before this happens, Alessandra sends five emails, one to her friend Francesca, one to her mother, one to her father, one to her sister and one to Andrea, in which she asks something of each of them.<br /> In the end, an envelope containing some photographs and accompanied by an enigmatic card is sent to Alessandra’s mother, closing the novel on a mysterious note.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,104円

The Painter Angelos and Icon-Painting in Venetian Crete【電子書籍】[ Maria Vassilaki ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The sixteen studies in this book include six specially translated from Greek and another two published here for the first time. They deal with the art of painting in Crete at a time when the island was under Venetian rule. The main emphasis is on the 15th century and especially on the painter Angelos. More than thirty icons with his signature survive, and at least twenty more can be reliably attributed to him. Angelos was the most significant artist of a particularly significant era. It was at this time that the centre of artistic production migrated from Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire to Candia, the capital of Venetian-occupied Crete. These studies try to reconstruct the personality of this late Byzantine painter, Angelos, not only through his icons but also through his will (1436), now in the State Archives in Venice. In this context they also explore the status of the Cretan painter in society. The large number of extant Cretan icons clearly indicates the striking increase in production from the 15th century onwards. Similarly, archival documents are used to examine the trade of icons in Crete and the way Cretan artists had to organize their workshops in order to meet the requirements of the market.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 11,123円

Venetian Crucible【電子書籍】[ Andy Burtis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>It is 1630 and Venice is being torn apart by factions within and enemies without. Our two now-grown Alberti friends from ‘Venetian Born’ fight through plague and war in this, their “Venetian Crucible,’ to rise from the ashes fully equipped to fulfill their separate destinies in the third and fourth books of my tetralogy ‘East/West.’</p> <p>This is the story of boys becoming men: Love discovered, love lost, love reclaimed. Friendships are re-kindled, new bonds formed while dear ones are lost. All melts down in this inferno of violence and contention; evil forces at work to undermine seemingly every effort at recovery and freedom. This is a story of great anguish for both Piero and Giulio Alberti, but also perseverance thanks to faithful souls like Father Leo and Anzcha, faithful fathers like Fiamo and Andrea, the irreverent Antonio and rakish Romano, the indomitable Dr. Anzelieri, and effervescent Evangelina and ‘Ji,' who illiterates many of the strong and unique ties between Venetian and Ottoman culture.</p> <p>Throughout this book, Venetian Crucible,’ you, the reader, will learn countless things about the Venetian culture of that time, like boxing, music, education, and trade. You will hopefully gain some insight into how the republic lasted twelve hundred years. Considering the crises, it went through to survive that long, not the least being the threat of invasion of three of the major powers of that dayーthe Muslim Ottomans and the Imperialist Spanish and Austrian Hapsburgs, I believe one can learn some things which might be pertinent today, like their use of detente to maintain its status after falling from the dominant power it was even at the time of the beginning of my first book. Also relevant to us would be the true religious faith the people of this book maintained in the face of such natural disasters like flood and plague, the plague of this book eliminating one out of three Venetians in that city. This story also recounts the very beginnings of what became the Italian Mafia. But the character who existed to come over to America in 1635 was, in fact, the first Italian to settle in North America, and his progeny survived to become anything but Mafia-like, but like Piero himself, who you can read about in the third book of my trilogy titled ‘Land of Tribute.’</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 804円

Loredana A Venetian Tale【電子書籍】[ Lauro Martines ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A dark, riveting tale of love, politics, and religion in sixteenth-century Venice--the embodiment of Leonardo da Vinci's ideal city.</strong><br /> In early sixteenth-century Italy, two lovers, Loredana and Orso, seem ready to die rather than be separated. Their tale unfolds in the two-tiered city of Venice, where the nobility have the upper tier and the light of the sun, while the common people, with their manual trades, occupy the lower city--the dark tier in the shadows. Violating social and religious taboos, the passion of the lovers bridges the two cities.<br /> A beautiful young widow, Loredana, dreads the cruel judgment of her family, one of the most powerful houses in republican Venice. Orso--a Dominican friar, mystic, and revolutionary--is in hiding, as the Venetian secret police scour the upper and lower cities for him. When the authorities close in, guardsmen control all streets and waterways, and the two lovers are driven to write out their penitential confessions, unable to reach the one priest who would not betray them.<br /> Conjuring up the voices of lovers and of their age through a rich array of letters, confessions, secret-police proceedings, a diary, and a family chronicle, this is an astonishing take of politics, love, lust, and religious incandescence.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,440円
