Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This introspective historical account meticulously documents the religious, social, and cultural customs of the citizens of Corfu, a fascinating isle off the coasts of Greece and Albania, from the 1700s through the turn of the 19th century. The author, who resided on the island for nearly two decades as a Consul for France, delves into both the overarching political realities and the day-to-day nuances that shaped the lives and traditions of Corfiotes during a tumultuous time in their history. From the complex religious landscape that saw the coexistence of the Roman Catholic Latin rite and the Greek Orthodox tradition, to the marriage customs steeped in superstition and folk belief, the author paints a vibrant and engaging picture of a people caught between the dying vestiges of Venetian rule and the emerging modern world. Through the author's keen observations and deep engagement with the community, this book unveils the intricate tapestry of a society in flux, offering readers a unique glimpse into the hearts and minds of a people whose identity was forged in the crucible of diverse influences. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781390785524_0
