Summary "Histoire de la République de Venise (Vol. 2)" by P. Daru is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This volume delves into the political and military history of Venice, focusing on significant events such as wars, controversies, and the shifting fortunes of the republic during the 14th century. The book reflects on the power dynamics within and around Venice, highlighting the influence of neighboring kingdoms. At the start of this volume, the narrative unfolds with the ascension of Jean Gradenigo to the dogate and the looming conflicts with Hungary, which led to Venice’s loss of Dalmatia. The opening portion lays out the tensions between the Venetian Republic and the Hungarian Crown, detailing the demands made by King Louis of Hungary and the subsequent military engagements. As the political landscape shifts, the narrative addresses issues such as internal dissent, the threats from rival powers, and the decline of Venetian control over its territories amidst significant strife, including the outbreak of plague. Each unfolding event sets the stage for the ongoing complexities within the republic that would shape its future. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
