Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of John Moore, M. D, Vol. 2 of 7: With Memoirs of His Life and Writings Mr. Addison tells us, that the common people of Naples in his time believed that this passage through the mountain was the work of magic, and that Virgil was the magician. But this is the age of scepticism; and the common people, in imitation of people of fashion, begin to harbour doubts concerning all their old-established o pinions. A Neapolitan valet-de-place asked an English gentleman lately, Whether Signior Virgilio, of whom he had heard so much, had really, and bona fide, been a ma gician or not? A magician, ' replied the Englishman; ay, that he was, and a very great magician too.' And do you, ' resumed the valet, believe it was he who pierced this rock i As for this particular rock, ' answer. Ed the master, I will not swear to it from my own know ledge, because it was done before I was born but I am ready to make oath, that I have known him pierce, and even melt, some very obdurate substances.'

Download or read book Volcanic written by John Brewer and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vibrant, diverse history of Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples in the age of Romanticism Vesuvius is best known for its disastrous eruption of 79CE. But only after 1738, in the age of Enlightenment, did the excavations of Herculaneum and Pompeii reveal its full extent. In an era of groundbreaking scientific endeavour and violent revolution, Vesuvius became a focal point of strong emotions and political aspirations, an object of geological enquiry, and a powerful symbol of the Romantic obsession with nature. John Brewer charts the changing seismic and social dynamics of the mountain, and the meanings attached by travellers to their sublime confrontation with nature. The pyrotechnics of revolution and global warfare made volcanic activity the perfect political metaphor, fuelling revolutionary enthusiasm and conservative trepidation. From Swiss mercenaries to English entrepreneurs, French geologists to local Neapolitan guides, German painters to Scottish doctors, Vesuvius bubbled and seethed not just with lava, but with people whose passions, interests, and aims were as disparate as their origins.
