Nationalwelcome--Brief description of Stockholm--Agreat genius in decline--Painting--Short sketch of Gustavus III. Female stratagem---The palace--The state bed-- The opera house--Assassination--Forgiveness--A tint not intended to effend. IN the morning our slumbers were gently dispelled by music, which " came o'er our ears like the sweet ' south." According to the custom of the country several musician DEGREES, I believe belonging to the military band, serenaded ui at our chamber door, with some exquisite soft national airs, which induced us to rise. After breakfast we ascended an eminence of rock called Mount Moses, in the south suburb, from whence we beheld in a bird's eye view this singular and beautiful city, which appears to be a little larger than Bristol, is situated in 59 deg. 20 min. of north latitude, and stands upon a small portion of two peninsulas and seven islands of grey granite, washed by a branch of the Baltic, the lake Master and the streams that flow from it. The palace, a large quadrangular building, uniting elegance to grandeur, rises from the centre of the city, which it commands in all directions. It will be more particularly described afterwards. The merchants' houses, which are in the south suburb, run parallel with the spacious quay, and front the ships which are moored close to it, are lofty, and in a graceful style of Italian architecture. Most of the buildings, rising amphitheatrically one above another, are either stone or brick stuccoed, of a white or light yellow color, and the roofs are covered with dark or light brown tiles, and presents with the surrounding scensi y of scattered half-covered rock, thin forests of fir, the lake, and the windings of the Baltic, a most romantic and enchanting...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Northern Summer, or Travels Round the Baltic, Through Denmark, Sweden, Russia, Prussia, and Part of Germany, in the Year 1804 Soon after we had quitted the tomb of the poor Norwes gian, the mail arrived, and at five o'clock a favoring breeze bore us from the lessening shore. Now, as I am one of those unhappy beings who, like Gonzalo in the Tempest, would at any time give one thousand furlongs of sea for an acre of barren ground and as there may be many more who may find the rocking of the ocean Somewhat unfriendly to the 'regularity of appetite; let me advise them to lay in some anchovies, lemons, oranges, and a little brandy and as we are upon the subject of travelling econ let me also recommend the packing up of a pair oi lea sheets and a leather pillow-case, in addition to their linen ones the former will prevent the penetration of damp, and repel vermin. As we passed Orfordness castle, the sun was setting in great glory and several ships working to windward, and alternately crossing each other, presented the most graceful figures: it was such a scene as the chaste spirit of Vernet might have hovered over with delight. The next day, we saw the topmasts of our brave blockaders 08 the Texel; it was painful to contemplate the effects of a dire necessity which forces us to harass a people, who in their hearts cherish no ani mosity, but againstthe tyranny which separates them from us. A noble frigate from the squadron passed us under a cloud of sail, breasting the lofty surge. She proudly dashed through the foam of the ocean, and to the eye of Fancy looked like the palace of Neptune. Her appear ance reminded me of the nervous, spirited, and Chatham like exclamation of a celebrated wit, upon the same sub ject: an English man-of-war is the thing after all she speaks all languages is the best negotiator, and the most profound politician, in this island she was Oliver Cromwell's embassador; she is one of the honestest ministers of state that ever existed, and never tells a lie; nor will she suffer the proudest Frenchman, Dutch man or Spaniard, to bamboozle or give her aosaucy an swer.

Download or read book A Modern History of European Cities written by Rosemary Wakeman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rosemary Wakeman's original survey text comprehensively explores modern European urban history from 1815 to the present day. It provides a journey to cities and towns across the continent, in search of the patterns of development that have shaped the urban landscape as indelibly European. The focus is on the built environment, the social and cultural transformations that mark the patterns of continuity and change, and the transition to modern urban society. Including over 60 images that serve to illuminate the analysis, the book examines whether there is a European city, and if so, what are its characteristics? Wakeman offers an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates concepts from cultural and postcolonial studies, as well as urban geography, and provides full coverage of urban society not only in western Europe, but also in eastern and southern Europe, using various cities and city types to inform the discussion. The book provides detailed coverage of the often-neglected urbanization post-1945 which allows us to more clearly understand the modernizing arc Europe has followed over the last two centuries.

Book excerpt: The explorations of eighteenth-century travellers to the 'European frontiers' were often geared to define the cultural, political, and historical boundaries of 'European civilization.' In an age when political revolutions shocked nations into reassessing what separated the civilised from the barbaric, how did literary travellers contemplate the characteristics of their continental neighbours? Focusing on the writings of British travellers, we see how a new view of Europe was created, one that juxtaposed the customs and living conditions of populations in an attempt to define 'modern' Europe against a 'yet unenlightened' Europe.
