Pisa Italy
PISA
La luna splendeva nel cielo quando giungemmo nella vicinanze di Pisa, e, per molto tempo, potemmo vedere, al di là delle mura, la Torre pendente, tutta inclinata in quella luce incerta: modesto originale delle vecchie figure nei libri scolastici che illustrano “Le Meraviglie del Mondo”.
Come la maggior parte delle cose collegate – quando le abbiamo conosciute per la prima volta – con i libri di scuola e con le ore di studio, essa è troppo piccola. Lo sentii assai distintamente.
Essa non appariva per nulla tanto alta al di sopra delle mura quanto avevo sperato.
Charles Dickens “Impressioni d’Italia (1844-45)
”The moon was shining in the sky when we reached the vicinity of Pisa, and, for a long time, we could see, beyond the walls, the Leaning Tower, all tilted in that uncertain light: modest original of the old figures in the school books illustrating "The Wonders of the World ".
Like most things connected - when we first met them - with school books and study hours, it is too small. I felt it very distinctly.
It did not appear at all as high above the walls as I had hoped for.
