to the vast piazza and itenclosing lonnade, in front of the basilica of saint peter.he is a rare man," said urban viii, "and a sublime artist borne by divine disposition and for the glory of rome." these statements by the pope about his favorite artist are significant in two ways. they were prophetic of the prodigious role bernini would play in his works for urban and the succeeding popes for a period of 60 years. rome was transformed into a modern city replete with public monuments meant not just for the elite but for everyone to admire and enjoy. the open arms of the vast porticos in front of saint peter's convey exactly this sense of outreach beyond the traditional bonds of society to include every individual in a universal embrace. this concern is made visible in what bernini described as "his least bad work." the cornaro family chapel, dedicated to 16th-century spanish mystic saint teresa of avila, which bernini created about 1650 in the church of santa maria della vittoria in rome. our eyes are met by those of the cardinal patron who looks out from among his anc

piazza san michele also has ancient roots. it's hosted a market since roman times, when it was the forum. today it's dominated by the church of san michele. towering above its fancy romanesque facade, the archangel michael stands ready to flap his wings, which, thanks to a crude mechanical contraption, he actually did on special occasions. in its heyday, lucca packed over 100 towers within its walls. each tower was the home and private fortress of a wealthy merchant family. towers were single rooms stacked atop each other -- shop, living room, and then the kitchen. this one, lucca's tallest surviving tower, is famous for being capped with a bushy little forest. those making the climb are rewarded with commanding city views, all in the shade of its amazing trees. nearby, the church of san giovanni hosts nightly concerts celebrating the music of hometown composer giacomo puccini. woman: [ singing operatically ] steves: he was one of italy's greatest opera composers. puccini's delightful arias seem to capture the spirit of this w

he was commissioned to rebuild the civic square of rome, the piazza campidoglio.n a hill above the forum, he created a classical frame for the medieval city hall-- a stage for the drama of politics. as he had with saint peter's, michelangelo used a bold reworking of classical architecture and integrated ancient statues into his design. throughout his life as architect and artist, michelangelo had stayed at the center of power-- a turbulent force in turbulent times. but there is anoth journey in his life as an artist which became increasingly important to him-- a journey equally heroic, equally mythic, but private. it's revealed in his intimate productions-- in his letters, in his sonnets and sketches. and it takes him away from this public stage into his inner life-- questioning the artist's role and indeed the very nature of art itself. in his final years, michelangelo wrote a profoundly personal sonnet. "in a frail boat, "through stormy seas, "my life in its course "has now reached the harbor, "the bar of which all men must cross "to render account of good and e

region of the report says if we are there on the moon the effect i got the news that he forged in the piazza now. it says that this is truly the complete text by the guardian and tired and he says all documents have now been present. but i did and he and his lawyer have admitted that this case involves an additional fifty million years of unpaid taxes in the concrete timeframe that is from two thousand three to two thousand and nine. bill and kenyans going to miss recently handed a the seventy thousand key documents that doing so it wasn't a fallen tree as it is portrayed in court according to prosecutors. under these documents out of the state prosecutor's office became aware that foreign exchange futures were involved but they were presented just now but i wanted. following these fresh revelations it now appears unlikely that the colt will reach a verdict by its original deadline of this day. as i was not as fast as our resident sports expert titus chalk so excited as this has been pretty honest and cooperated it seems with all the scanning over seventy thousand new doctor isn't it a lot.

this square -- the piazza del duomo -- was nicknamed the "campo dei miracoli," or field of miracles,e grandness of the undertaking. the architectural style throughout is pisa's very own pisan romanesque. where traditional romanesque has a heavy, fortress feel, pisan romanesque is light and elegant. the buildings, with their tight rows of thin columns, geometric designs, and striped colored marble, give the campo a striking unity. the 200-foot-tall bell tower is famous because it leans about 15 feet. the tower started to lean almost immediately after construction began. various architects tried to correct the problem of the leaning by straightening up the top section. the tower tilted a little more each year, and was in danger of actually falling over. over the centuries, they tried every trick imaginable to stop the tilt. finally, they figured it out, stabilized the tower, and in 2001, the leaning tower of pisa was reopened to the climbing public. climbing to the top is an unforgettable experience, offering great views of the city, the square, and its dramatic duomo. pisa's huge and
