Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 3456 Shelter from the Wind (V)

Dante died in 1328, 50 years before the Pope began to build a library in 1378, and 150 years before the first Bible printed with movable type.

However, this does not mean that there was no woodblock printing before movable type printing. The French did not bring back the Rosetta Stone, but they brought back many rubbings. Many seals are engraved upside down, and the "movable type" of movable type books is sometimes also engraved, if they are raised. The Rosetta Stone is concave, and it does not need to be reversed after rubbing.

To build a library, you must first collect books. There were many private collectors before the Pope moved back to Rome. Many Crusaders, including lords, could not read, and they had no use for the documents left by ancient Greece and Rome, and often sold them at a low price.

Dante's Divine Comedy contains many pagan elements, but it is still far inferior to "The Decameron". The reason why "Divine Comedy" is widely spread is that it was not banned, and it was written in the vernacular language, that is, the Tuscan dialect, rather than the popular written language Latin, which is a very popular language.

The original version of "The Decameron" was written in Latin, and Georgiana also saw the vernacular version of "The Decameron" in the forbidden book index - a manuscript. No matter how "collected" such books are, there will always be some that are circulated.

During the interval of the banquet, Georgiana went to a corner to smoke. In the past, when she was a "background board", she only needed to fake a smile for a short while, and soon everyone's sight and attention would be attracted by the "protagonist".

If she is incompetent, she also has a kind of incompetence, which is very important for women.

Fortunately, Paulina and Caroline are there, they can speak Italian... I don't know why, Italians are so talkative regardless of class.

"Mamma Mia." She said in the tone of an Italian, and ended up laughing.

She was in an empty corner, smoking and staring at the lively crowd in a daze.

She had been wondering how Lisbon could become a "free port" but refuse entry to the British, and why the Portuguese would cooperate so well.

The book "The Wealth of Nations" was not banned.

The Portuguese entered the "Mandala System" after years of operation. This does not mean that the British occupied Macau and the access qualification was transferred to Britain. After entering the "tributary system", they can trade in tea. Before England finds a new source of black tea, Wuyi Mountain black tea is still the main source.

Moreover, they only need to say "follow orders" to put all the blame on Napoleon, and he happened to "raise objections" with the Jay Treaty and the boundary river.

If we look at the era he lived in and the territory he governed, Joao V was indeed a revival leader. Before the discovery of gold in Brazil, the Portuguese trade center was spices in Asia. Brazil was originally the name of a kind of mahogany.

It was not until John III that Portugal shifted the center of colonial affairs to the Americas. For the convenience of management, all known places in Brazil were divided into 15 fiefdoms, only two of which were slightly successful, one was the village of São Paulo and the other was Pernambuco, which produced sugar cane.

Starting in 1580, the Habsburgs obtained the Portuguese throne through marriage, and they also had the Spanish crown, so Portugal and Spain were united.

But at this time, the Netherlands started the 80-year war. Portugal, as part of the Kingdom of Spain, and Brazil were also attacked by the Dutch. It was also during this period that the name of "the coachman of the sea" became more and more famous.

When the War of the Spanish Succession ended in the 18th century, the Netherlands had no reason to attack Portuguese ships anymore, and Portugal's gold and diamonds were also shipped to Europe.

At that time, Minas Ski Las belonged to the courtiers of the São Paulo fiefdom, and all the gold went into private pockets. Later, Rio de Janeiro began to collect 1/5 of the "royal tax", and gold was not allowed to be taken out of the gold mine without paying the tax.

Women and priests did that, but priests didn't really pay taxes. Their robes were full of gold bars, which jingled when they jumped.

But who would search the priests? Later, many European countries expelled the Jesuits, and they all went to Italy. The Pope announced their dissolution in 1774.

But this does not mean that they disappeared. I heard that Lang Shining was doing well in East Asia.

Before the popularization of internal combustion engines and vehicles, even during the First World War, war horses still had great uses.

Georgiana didn't believe that the Duke would keep all the horses in his own courtyard, but those who had horses were often knights. The knights followed the lords to guard, and it was "reasonable" to let the horses drink water and give them a bath.

The places on the outer wall of the castle that she thought were shooting holes turned out to be scaffolding. When the scaffolding was removed, these square holes became natural light intakes.

She sighed again, wondering when she could sneak away and go to the secret passage to find out.

Although she didn't enjoy exploring new secret passages like Gryffindor, she wouldn't avoid going if there was a secret right in front of her because she was worried about getting her skirt dirty.

British schools are mainly "teacher universities". Although Hogwarts has a student union, it cannot achieve student autonomy like "student universities". They can not only set tuition fees, but also appoint and dismiss the principal.

Oh, how can this be possible?

Why can't it be possible? Umbridge didn't enter the principal's office again, and she was not recognized as the principal.

Although more than one person said she was a "freak", she always felt that Hogwarts was conscious, and then she suggested Sirius to sign a "verbal agreement" with the castle and swear "not to do good things".

The children's love of mischief nurtured Peeves, and Umbridge's behavior was very fascist, and Draco and others were her tools of dictatorship.

"Oh~" She couldn't help but screamed with a headache.

Speaking of dictators, there is no one more dictatorial than Bonaparte. If she was a real anti-dictator, she would not fear power and resist to the end.

Most people like to hear good words. Who doesn't like to be happy during the New Year and festivals?

At this time, someone suddenly jumped out to "advise", and this person will definitely not appear on the invitation list in the future.

It is very uncomfortable to have the sword of Damocles hanging over your head, and "smart people" will tie it down.

If an emperor or king does not live in a palace and has a group of concubines, what is he?

Indeed, Charles X, after the restoration of France, said that he would never rule France in the way the British ruled.

George IV couldn't even marry the woman he liked, but he married a "queen" that the parliament was satisfied with, and they didn't sleep with her anyway.

If the British had met a king like John V, they would never approve a budget for him to build palaces without restraint.

1706 was the reign of Queen Anne, and it was only 18 years after the "Glorious Revolution".

Originally, Britain was full of woods, but Cromwell cut down all the trees because he wanted to build a navy.

In the 20th century, when productivity and science and technology could not be completely drained, it would be useless to continue to invest money in the management of the Pontine Swamp. However, it would not work if it was not managed, because mosquitoes were as deadly as malaria.

"What are you thinking about alone?"

Georgiana turned around and found that it was Grando, a semiotician sent by Lyon.

"Nothing." She said perfunctorily.

Then they had nothing to talk about.

Although they had all seen "The Defender of Peace".

"That kid, do you know who he is?" Grando said.

Georgiana followed his gaze and saw that it was Alessandro Torlonia.

"I know who he is, and I know his father and brother," Georgiana said.

"I heard that in order to pay for Tolentino's jump, Pope Pius VI paid for the ancient coin collection in the Vatican Library," said Grando.

Georgiana stared at him.

"What for?" He smiled inexplicably.

She looked at the face carefully, and she suddenly remembered Lehr Meyer, the death priest in the Alps, who took away the face of a drunkard.

Just at this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves, and soon a French cavalryman rode into the courtyard.

Well, when the Duke of Milan designed this courtyard, he also wanted to be able to ride up to the second floor. This cavalryman could ride in on horseback, but why didn't anyone stop him.

"Victory!" The cavalryman shouted on his horse, "General Murat wins, long live France!"

The guests were stunned.

The cavalryman controlled the horse and came to Caroline like a dressage.

"We won, ma'am, Dalmatia is ours." The cavalryman said condescendingly to the pregnant Caroline.

Many of the guests present were French, and they cheered together.

"Go see what's going on." Georgiana said to Grando, and then walked towards the "excitement".

"What was your original plan?" Grando said.

"What original plan?"

"You figured it out before I came." Grando asked. "I think it's very interesting."

"Haha, you're so funny." Georgiana laughed and said, "Do you have the ability to read minds and see what's in my mind?"

"Count me in." Grando smiled mysteriously and walked past her. "I paid."

She waited for his back, thinking that this man was really suspicious.

She stamped out the unfinished cigarette. Although it was close to the water source and the castle was also a brick and stone structure, she still had to be careful of fire.
