Rooted firmly in Commedia dell'arte yet unashamedly influenced by Kurt Weill, Donizetti and countless others in between, The Venetian Twins is an inspired piece of mayhem and musical pastiche.</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。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In 1203, the relative peace of the Byzantine Empire is imperiled when the ships of the Fourth Crusade show up outside the walls of Constantinople. Instead of traveling to the Holy Land to battle the infidels, the Crusade, having sailed out of Venice, has been subverted and is now besieging the city. The jester known as Feste, his wife Viola, and their compatriots within the city are faced with catastrophe as the peace the Fool's Guild has worked so hard to maintain is about to be shattered.</p> <p>With such a disaster looming, the death of one silk merchant in the Venetian Quarter of Constantinople seems insignificant. But Philoxenites, the Imperial Treasurer and one of the most power schemers at court, has taken a special interest in the case and wants Feste to investigate Venetian merchant's death. The merchant, of course, was not what he appeared to be and, if Constantinople is to have any hope of surviving the troops outside its gates, Feste must quickly uncover what forces were at work when the merchant lost his life.</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。

<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.

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.

<p>“Love in the Venetian province” is a novel set mainly in a specific area of Veneto, from the Treviso Prealps to the city of Venice, in a period of time that goes from the early 1990s to the present day. The first part of the novel features at least two main characters, Anna and Marco. Both are nearly forty and both, for different reasons, have a strong bond with the mountains.<br /> An unpleasant accident in the forest causes them to meet for the first time and their friendship gradually turns into a deeper relationship. Another accident then forces them to bring their relationship in the open. United by their love, they make the difficult decision to separate from their respective spouses and start a new life together.<br /> The second part of the novel leaves more room for the components of the two families, in particular Marco’s seventeen-year-old daughters, two stunning identical twins, whose personalities couldn’t be more different. Both girls are instantly attracted to Andrea, Anna’s eighteen-year-old son. 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. This is an event that wreaks havoc in Alessandra’s life.<br /> In fact, Alessandra feels extremely guilty for betraying her sister, despite being more in love than ever with Andrea. Consequently, she decides to help her friend Francesca and leave for Aleppo to work as a nurse for the European Medical Volunteers Association. 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。

The Bravo A Venetian Story【電子書籍】[ James Fenimore Cooper ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A novel of early eighteenth-century Venice that Cooper called "in spirit, the most American book I ever wrote."</strong></p> <p><em>The Bravo</em> (1831) takes place in early eighteenth-century Venice, when the "Serene Republic" had lost much of its glory, leaving its oligarchs struggling to hold on to their family wealth by manipulating the government and people through secret councils and a figure-head doge. In 1844, Cooper called it "in spirit, the most American book I ever wrote" because of its depiction of the masses duped by demagoguery and the attempts of Congress to rein in President Jackson, who Cooper saw as representing the popular will. In the novel, the low-born hero, Jacopo Frontoni, is forced to become an agent of the state because his unjustly imprisoned father languishes in the infamous state prison. On the last page, Jacopo is executed as a scapegoat for the crimes attributed to him of which he is innocent, rendering his beloved insane. Only in a subplot does a noble couple escape Venice to enjoy marriage.</p> <p>The present text is based on all extant manuscript witnesses (including a lengthy deleted section) and offers extensive explanatory notes.</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。

The Venetian Painters of the Renaissance (Italian Painters #1)【電子書籍】[ Bernard Berenson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>The Venetian Painters of the Renaissance</em> by Bernard Berenson (1865-1959) is the first essay in a four-volume series on Italian painters of the Renaissance and after. This set has become a classic reference work. It is often referred to as the “four gospels”. These books have established the international reputation of their author. Unlike the prevailing conceptions at the time, Berenson establishes a dialogue between the works of art and the viewer. This famous work first appeared in the English language in 1895. Critics were unanimously favourable.</p> <p>It is a monumental work. These texts open the world to their readers. Louis Gillet of the ‘Acad?mie fran?aise’ (French Academy) wrote to the author in 1908: “It is perhaps the greatest service you have rendered to the history of art, to have defined better than any another critic the personality of the different schools, for having distinguished, alongside the Florentine school, the special physiognomy of the Umbrian schools, and alongside Venice, the face of the Northern school; to have characterized the different geniuses, to have more precisely than any other delineated the map." Louis Gillet then translated the work into French.</p> <p>In this first volume dedicated to Venice, the reader discovers or rediscovers the painters of the Quattrocento and of the following centuries. The author gives them unity. For undoubtedly the first time in the history of art, he gives us a synthetic and global vision of these painters in their world and their time.</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。

Colonial Justice and the Jews of Venetian Crete【電子書籍】[ Rena N. Lauer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>When Venice conquered Crete in the early thirteenth century, a significant population of Jews lived in the capital and main port city of Candia. This community grew, diversified, and flourished both culturally and economically throughout the period of Venetian rule, and although it adhered to traditional Jewish ways of life, the community also readily engaged with the broader population and the island's Venetian colonial government.</p> <p>In <em>Colonial Justice and the Jews of Venetian Crete</em>, Rena N. Lauer tells the story of this unusual and little-known community through the lens of its flexible use of the legal systems at its disposal. Grounding the book in richly detailed studies of individuals and judicial casesーconcerning matters as prosaic as taxation and as dramatic as bigamy and murderーLauer brings the Jews of Candia vibrantly to life. Despite general rabbinic disapproval of such behavior elsewhere in medieval Europe, Crete's Jews regularly turned not only to their own religious courts but also to the secular Venetian judicial system. There they aired disputes between family members, business partners, spouses, and even the leaders of their community. And with their use of secular justice as both symptom and cause, Lauer contends, Crete's Jews grew more open and flexible, confident in their identity and experiencing little of the anti-Judaism increasingly suffered by their coreligionists in Western Europe.</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。

The City of Masks Unveiling the Secrets of Venetian Disguises【電子書籍】[ George Barr McCutcheon ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "The City of Masks," George Barr McCutcheon explores the intricate interplay of identity and societal roles within the vibrant but deceptive setting of a fictional city where masks'??literal and metaphorical'??are the norm. With a deft hand, McCutcheon blends elements of romance, satire, and social commentary, adopting a narrative style that juxtaposes wit with poignant observations of human behavior. The novel emerges from the early 20th-century literary context when the exploration of identity was burgeoning, reflecting contemporary societal anxieties around authenticity and the facades people wear in their daily lives. George Barr McCutcheon, an American writer hailing from Lafayette, Indiana, was known for his engaging storytelling and keen insight into human nature. His background in journalism and playwriting, coupled with a fascination for urban life, significantly influenced his depiction of cities as complex characters in their own right. McCutcheon'??s own experiences navigating social interactions in the rapidly changing landscape of American society provided a fertile ground for the themes explored in this novel. "The City of Masks" is a compelling read for those who enjoy richly layered narratives that provoke thought on self-identity and societal expectations. McCutcheon'??s masterful navigation through humor and pathos invites readers to reflect on their own masks, making this work a timeless piece worth revisiting.</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。

Mirrors of Heaven or Worldly Theaters? Venetian Nunneries and Their Music【電子書籍】[ Jonathan E. Glixon ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>Mirrors of Heaven or Worldly Theaters? Venetian Nunneries and Their Music</em> explores the dynamic role of music performance and patronage in the convents of Venice and its lagoon from the sixteenth century to the fall of Venice around 1800. Examining sacred music performed by the nuns themselves and by professional musicians they employed, author Jonathan E. Glixon considers the nuns as collective patrons, of both musical performances by professionals in their external churches-primarily for the annual feast of the patron saint, a notable attraction for both Venetians and foreign visitors-and of musical instruments, namely organs and bells. The book explores the rituals and accompanying music for the transitions in a nun's life, most importantly the ceremonies through which she moved from the outside world to the cloister, as well as liturgical music within the cloister, performed by the nuns themselves, from chant to simple polyphony, and the rare occasions where more elaborate music can be documented. Also considered are the teaching of music to both nuns and girls resident in convents as boarding students, and entertainment-musical and theatrical-by and for the nuns. <em>Mirrors of Heaven</em>, the first large-scale study of its kind, contains richly detailed appendices featuring a calendar of musical events at Venetian nunneries, details on nunnery organs, lists of teachers, and inventories of musical and ceremonial books, both manuscript and printed. A companion website supplements the book's musical examples with editions of complete musical works, which are brought to life with accompanying audio files.</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。
