The Doges Daughter

It's a sweet, slippery ride that ends in joy, love and intense pleasure, both for the characters, and the reader. Reviewed from a copy loaned from the author and she'll be so surprised when she sees this - but honestly, I loved it! Gabriella, I hope there's more where this came from. I'll be first in line to read it. I'm sorry, but this is one of the worst erotic romances I've read in a long time. It was boring, pointless, and disturbing.
The product description does not mention child rape, but it is definitely in this novel. It's just a perverse, twisted child pornography novella.

New regulations for the elections of the doge introduced in remained in force until the end of the republic in Their intention was to minimize the influence of individual great families, and this was effected by a complex electoral machinery. Thirty members of the Great Council, chosen by lot , were reduced by lot to nine; the nine chose forty and the forty were reduced by lot to twelve, who chose twenty-five.
The twenty-five were reduced by lot to nine, and the nine elected forty-five. These forty-five were once more reduced by lot to eleven, and the eleven finally chose the forty-one who elected the doge. In a ceremonial formula for consulting the Venetians, when a new doge was chosen, before he took the oath of investiture, he was presented to the people with the formula: He was presented with the unconditional words "Your doge". While doges had great temporal power at first, after , the doge was constantly under strict surveillance: The doges normally ruled for life although a few were forcibly removed from office.

The official income of the doge was never large, and from early times holders of the office remained engaged in trading ventures. From 7 July , during a vacancy in the office of doge, the state was headed ex officio , with the style vicedoge , by the senior consigliere ducale ducal counsellor. One of the ceremonial duties of the doge was to celebrate the symbolic marriage of Venice with the sea.
This was done by casting a ring from the state barge, the Bucentaur , into the Adriatic. In its earlier form this ceremony was instituted to commemorate the conquest of Dalmatia by Doge Pietro II Orseolo in , and was celebrated on Ascension Day. On state occasions the Doge was surrounded by an increasing amount of ceremony, and in international relations he had the status of a sovereign prince.
The doge took part in ducal processions, which started in the Piazza San Marco.
Doge of Venice
The doge would appear in the center of the procession, preceded by civil servants ranked in ascending order of prestige and followed by noble magistrates ranked in descending order of status. Francesco Sansovino described such a procession in minute detail in He description is confirmed and complemented by Cesare Vecellio 's painting of a ducal procession in the Piazza San Marco.
From the 14th century onward, the ceremonial crown and well-known symbol of the doge of Venice was called corno ducale , a unique ducal hat.
It was a stiff horn-like bonnet, which was made of gemmed brocade or cloth-of-gold and worn over the camauro. This was a fine linen cap with a structured peak reminiscent of the Phrygian cap , a classical symbol of liberty. This ceremonial cap may have been based on the white crown of Upper Egypt. The Doge's official costume also included golden robes, slippers and a sceptre for ceremonial duties.
Until the 15th century, the funeral service for a deceased doge would normally be held at St Mark's Basilica , where some early holders of this office are also buried. After the 15th century, however, the funerals of all later doges were held at the Basilica di San Giovanni e Paolo. Twenty-five doges are buried there. As the oligarchical element in the constitution developed, the more important functions of the ducal office were assigned to other officials, or to administrative boards.
The doge's role became a mostly representative position. The last doge was Ludovico Manin , who abdicated in , when Venice passed under the power of Napoleon 's France following his conquest of the city.
