| Summary | "The Story of Milan" by Ella Noyes is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the rich and tumultuous history of Milan, detailing its significance as a city in the context of various political and ecclesiastical struggles throughout the ages. Noyes explores major events, influential figures, and the artistic heritage of Milan, capturing the essence of the city as both a historical and cultural landmark. At the start of the narrative, the author sets the stage by contrasting contemporary Milan with its storied past. Noyes conveys a sense of loss regarding the city's once vibrant character, overshadowed by modern commercialism. She introduces Milan's historical events, including its status during the Roman Empire, struggles for ecclesiastical and civic authority, and the impact of figures like Bishop Ambrose. This early portion emphasizes Milan's transformation from a center of imperial authority to a significant player in the development of Italian nationalism and the struggle for civic independence, laying the groundwork for the in-depth exploration that follows.
