Excerpt from Select Passages Illustrating Florentine Life in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries The extracts in this little book have been chosen to illustrate the social and industrial as well as the political life of Florence in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, when the practice of government based on Trade Guilds was in process of development. To-day, when similar theories of government are widely discussed, the history of this experiment is of vital interest. During those two centuries and under such rule all the most beautiful churches and palaces of Florence were built, many of its best known poets, novelists, and historians wrote, and some of its most famous sculptors and painters worked. Nearly all of them were members of Trade Guilds. The aim of this necessarily short and inadequate work is to arouse in its readers a desire for more knowledge of those times. A brief bibliography is appended to the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
