Its medieval empire that conquered Naples, Sicily and Athens was crushed by Spain. Its geography, with the Pyrenees falling sharply to the rugged Costa Brava, is tormented, too. Michael Eaude traces this history and it monuments: roman Tarragona, celebrated by the poet Martial; Greek Empuries, lost for centuries beneath the sands; medieval Romanesque architecture in the Vall de Boi churches (a World Heritage Series) and Poblet and Santes Creus monasteries. 410 0$aLandscapes of the imagination. 607 $aCatalonia (Spain)$xCivilization 676 $a946/.7 700 $aEaude$b Michael$01463088 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789443203321 996 $aCatalonia$93672303 997 $aUNINA
