Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Mark Twain once famously said "there was but one solitary thing about the past worth remembering, and that was the fact that it is past and can't be restored." Well, over recent years, The British Library, working with Microsoft has embarked on an ambitious programme to digitise its collection of 19th century books. There are now 65,000 titles available (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon. Further information on The British Library and its digitisation programme can be found on The British Library website.

Excerpt from Graf Heinrich Matthias Thurn in Diensten der Republik Venedig: Eine Studie nach Venetianischen Acten Am kaiserlichen Hofe fühlte man die Ehre, welche die Republik dem verhassten böhmischen Rebellen erwies, geradezu als Beleidigung. Die Gefühle, welche Thurn gegen Ferdinand II. Seit dem Augenblicke hegte, als ihm dieser das mit einem Jahreseinkom-men von 12000 Thalern verbundene Burggrafen amt von Karlstein entzogen hatte, wurden vom Kaiser gewiss aufrichtig erwidert; eine Versöhnung zwischen diesen Beiden war nicht denkbar, wurde auch meines Wissens niemals ver sucht, während Ferdinand II. Im Allgemeinen doch nicht hart oder unversöhnlich genannt werden kann, wie sein Verhalten gegen Anhalt beweist, dessen Action gegen das Haus Habsburg die des Grafen Thurn an Bedeutung wohl übertroffen haben mag. Thurn war ein unermüdlicher Agitator und es war nicht ganz unbegründet, wenn der Kaiser die Verbindung Venedigs'mit seinem ärgsten Widersacher als eine gegen ihn selbst gerichtete feindselige Handlung auffasste. Dass man in Venedig von der Stellung Thurns zum Wiener Hofe und von der Stimmung, welche daselbst über jenen herrschte, unter richtet war, bedarf wohl keiner besonderen Versicherung.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
