| Brief History
: The ancient sun-warmed land pulses with secrets and messages from
a rich and enigmatic past. In Italy one peels back the centuries
even as one explores a country wreathed in myth and legend. The
nation has spawned intellectual giants in the fields of literature,
art and science like Homer, Virgil, Dante, Columbus, Michelangelo
and Vivaldi. The larger-than-life conquests of Julius Ceaser, the
magnificent Roman empire, the creative outpourings of the
Renaissance... Italy has seen it all. The country morphed into a
modern state in the 1800s and continues to be the high seat of
Christendom. |
