Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels Through Portugal and Spain, in 1772-1773 Una de las cofas en que se vee la grandeza del animo del hombre, y la parte mortal adonde aspira, es el no hallarse contento, ni satisfecho en un lugar, procurando hartar su deseo, inclinado a diversidad de cosas, rodeando el mundo, y tentando diferentes lugares para hurtar el cuerpo a los fastidios de la vida. Disc. prelim. a la Araucana. The meaning of which is, "Nothing perhaps more evidently proves the greatness of the mind of man, and the immortality to which it aspires, than not finding ourselves contented or satisfied in one place, but procuring the gratification of our desires, which are inclined to a diversity of objects, by rambling about the world, and visiting different places, to steal (as it were) ourselves from the cares of life."

Download or read book Outpost of Empire written by Charles J. Esdaile and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-03-18 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Napoleon’s forces invaded Spain in 1808, but two years went by before they overran the southern region of Andalucía. Situated at the farthest frontier of Napoleon’s “outer empire,” Andalucía remained under French control only briefly—for two-and-a-half years—and never experienced the normal functions of French rule. In this groundbreaking examination of the Peninsular War, Charles J. Esdaile moves beyond traditional military history to examine the French occupation of Andalucía and the origins and results of the region’s complex and chaotic response. Disillusioned by the Spanish provisional government and largely unprotected, Andalucía scarcely fired a shot in its defense when Joseph Bonaparte’s army invaded the region in 1810. The subsequent French occupation, however, broke down in the face of multiple difficulties, the most important of which were geography and the continued presence in the region of substantial forces of regular troops. Drawing on British, French, and Spanish sources that are all but unknown, Esdaile describes the social, cultural, geographical, political, and military conditions that combined to make Andalucía particularly resistant to French rule. Esdaile’s study is a significant contribution to the new field sometimes known as occupation studies, which focuses on the ways a victorious army attempts to reconcile a conquered populace to the new political order. Combining military history with political and social history, Outpost of Empire delineates what we now call the cultural terrain of war. This is history that moves from battles between armies to battles for hearts and minds.
Download or read book Landscape Literature and English Religious Culture 1660 1800 written by R. Mayhew and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-03-15 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landscape, Literature and English Religious Culture, 1660-1800 offers a powerful revisionist account of the intellectual significance of landscape descriptions during the 'long' Eighteenth-century. Landscape has long been a major arena for debate about the nature of Eighteenth-century English culture; this book surveys those debates and offers a provocative new account. Mayhew shows that describing landscape was a religiously contested practice, and that different theological positions led differing authors to different descriptive approaches. Landscape description, then, shows English intellectual life still in the grips of a Christian and classical mentality in the 'long' Eighteenth-century.
