The king who came after this Louis?the true discoverer of Havre?was the very prince of royal adventurers. In love, in war, in captivity, in magnificence, and in the art of leading his people out from the lingering bondage of medieval darkness to riot in the full sun of Renaissance splendor, who can rival Francis I? In the Louvre, in Paris, you may look upon the face of this great king, one that Havre grew to know as well as the faces of her own fisherfolk. That long oval, that fine Gallic brow, the prodigiously elongated straight nose?the nose even Titian must render distinctive rather than distinguished?the bearded cheeks and chin, the full Roman lips, and above all, the eye?dark, protruding, voluptuously lidded?the seeing eye of the lover of art and of a beautiful woman?here before you on the canvas you, too, grow to know, with an intimate sense of satisfaction, the countenance as well as much of the nature and character of the man who opened the great doors on France's Vita Nuova, on her new, on her truly modern career. Francis I had come from Italy, flushed with his triumph. He was fresh from his victory?he had won Milan from the Sforzas. His mind was saturated with the Renaissance spirit; he was still warmed with the glow of her intellectual activities, with the power and splendor of her artistic development. KING FRANCOIS THE FIRST From a painting by Titian Francis I brought to France, as he was to prove in his enterprises at Havre, a new view of kingly conduct. This was the gift he brought from Italy with which to enrich his own kingdom?and Havre. He had seen the great Italian and Venetian ports crowded with shipping. What had France to show compared to these great world centers of maritime power? Two ...

Download or read book Battlefield Tourism written by David William Lloyd and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the Great War, a wave of tourists and pilgrims visited the battlefields, cemeteries and memorials of the war. The cultural history of this 'battlefield tourism' is chronicled in this absorbing and original book, which shows how the phenomenon served to construct memory in Britain, as well as in Australia and Canada. The author demonstrates that high and low culture, tradition and modernism, the sacred and the profane were often inter-related, rather than polar opposites. The various responses to the actual and imagined landscapes of battlefields are discussed, as well as bereavement and how this was shaped by gender, religion and the military experience. Individual memory and experience combined with nationalism and 'imperial' identity as powerful forces informing the pilgrim experience.But this book not only analyzes travel to battlefields, which unsurprisingly paralleled the growth of the modern tourist industry; it also looks closely at the transformation of national war memorials into pilgrimage sites, and shows how responses both to battlefields and memorials, which continue to serve as potent symbols, evolved in the years after the Great War.
