Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Italian Mission During our protracted journey, the health of Elder Toronto had been considerably affected; but this salubrious clime having reg-invigorated his frame, he became very anxious to visit his friends in Sicily. As I felt it proper for him to do so, he took his departure at the beginning of August. Soon after my arrival here, I considered it necessary to issue a publica tion in French accordingly I wrote, and compiled a work, entitled T he Voice of Joseph, containing Visions of Joseph Smith - Discovery of Gold Plates filled with Egyptian Characters and Hieroglyphics - Their Translation into the English Language by the aid of the Urim and Thummim - The Sacred History of Ancient America now clearly revealed from the earliest ages after the Flood, to the beginning of the Fifth Cen tury of the Christian Era - Organization of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - Their Persecutions - Expulsion from the States of Missouri and Illinois - Martyrdom of Joseph and Hyrum Smith - Banish ment of many Thousand Saints - Their Travels in the Western Wilderness - Their present location in Upper California - Their Organization of the State of Deseret - The Missionary Labours of their Elders - Sketch of their Faith and Doctrine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 4 1/2 Years in the Italy Mission: A Criticism of Missionary Methods Some one has written an account of his travels in Europe, entitled Sights and Insights. This book is devoted solely to insights. We have no concern with natural scenery, imposing architecture, and works of art. Wye leave these things to the writers of guide books. AS an agent of the Methodist Episcopal Church we feel it our duty to make our report. How often the genial and eloquent Chaplain has told us that the way to get a good collection for the Missionary Society is to tell the people what has been done with the money already given. We agree with him per fectly. The contributors have a right to know all the facts. It is not just to tell them a few of the most encouraging facts and to conceal from them the fail ures. It is an ungracious task for those who stay at home to recount the defeats of those who go out to battle, but surely one who has suffered loss at the front may be permitted to point out the defective movements in the campaign and warn of ambuscades those who may renew the charge.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Italy's Civilizing Mission in Africa Italy's occupation of the North Eastern Coast of Africa, so called Tripolitania and Cyrenaica, has opened up again that Oriental question which has been for centuries the unsolved problem of diplo macy, which has been also the field of the most terrible wars, massacres and exterminations that history could register in its fatal books. Such an event has been foreseen for years, and it is only due to the urgent reforms needed at home, more than to the ineptitude of the Government, that the occupation did not take place earlier.

When I returned to my ock in Milan, my friends were so kind as to give me a hearty reception. The first Sabbath I found owers in my pulpit, an excellent choir organised for my reception, a silver communion service as a gift to me for the use of the church, and the congregation addressed me by the mouth of my friend, Rev. Longo. It is precisely the kind of reception I saw the congregation of Dr Gibson giving to him when he returned back from Europe to Chicago in September last.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Italy: With Maps 3. Theodoric, Lieutenant of the Emperor, 493-526. Like Odoacer, Theodoric conquered and ruled by a com. Mission from the Emperor, but the splendour and prosperity of his reign weakened the tie which bound Italy to the Emperor. Unlike Odoacer, he aimed at setting up a dynasty. He recognized his own people as the conquerors, and at the same time he impartially administered their own laws to the conquered Italians. Religious jealousy marred the happiness of his reign and the success of his plans. The Gothic rule was short-lived: the northern race was unsuited to a life of inactivity, and the scandals of the Court after the death of Theodoric greatly weakened the power of the East - Goths.

Download or read book Old Italian Masters Classic Reprint written by Timothy Cole and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-17 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Italian Masters Like all revolutions, this became proscriptive - the Old Mas ters became the derision of every aspirant, and naturalism the only art. This also was excess, and is followed by reaction. Na ture will not teach art, and the exclusive pursuit of her indications can only lead to a simulacrum of art, in which the vital spirit of it can by no chance enter. Art is the expression of all the spiritual faculties of man, passion for beauty, aspiration of the imagination, the manifestation of the individual in his inmost nature. For this nature can only furnish an alphabet, types whose meaning only sympathy can unfold, and which become the language of art. The sense of the insufficiency of the so-called naturalistic art has brought those who craved the real art-influence to look back to the earlier schools, and the result has been that we have found again the springs of art and the true meaning of the desecrated word Ideal, the ivisible expression of which is the mission of art, z'. E., the individual conception of beauty taken in its largest sense, as what is most desirable and attractive in conceivable form - not to be confounded with the actual, and probably-never existing in nature. The Italian Renaissance was in no wise a re turn to nature as model, but a reawakening of the spiritual activity of the race after a torpor of ages, and which demanded the means of expression of itself. As the religious passion was dominant in that phase of Italian development, the religious motive was that which caught the inspiration; but this was incidental - the essen tial fact was that the art was not an appeal to nature but a form of poetic speech, the telling of a spiritual truth, not the rela tion of a natural phenomenon or fact. It was the poet, not the scientist, that appeared. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This is a letter by Buteux to the father general, dated at Three Rivers, September 2 I, 1649. In reply to a note from the latter, the missionary returns thanks for promised aid, which is especially needed at this time, when the French are continually harassed by Iroquois raids. The little settlement of Three Rivers is so slightly defended that the French are in daily peril of their lives; but all connected with the mission not only the priests, but their servants are ready to lay down their lives, if need be, for the sake of the little Indian church which they have there founded.
