Tombeau d'Hassan Baba, à l'entrée de la vallée de Tempé est une illustration issue du recueil Views in Greece from Drawings publié par Edward Dodwell en 1821.

Le tombeau d'Hassan Baba , situé à l'entrée de la vallée de Tempé, est un édifice solitaire et poignant. Ce mausolée, entouré de verdure luxuriante, rappelle la richesse historique et culturelle de la région, offrant un lieu de recueillement et de mémoire.

La retranscription littérale de la notice accompagnant cette planche est reproduite ci-dessous:

Le grand et beau village de Baba est à environ douze milles de Larissa, et occupe probablement le site de l'ancienne Elatée, qui, selon Tite Live, était près de Connos et de l'ouverture de Tempé. Il est situé dans une plaine de forme circulaire, à peu de distance de l'entrée de la vallée de Tempé. Les cimes verdoyantes et ondoyantes de larges platanes, de hauts cyprès et de superbes pins formant parasols l'embellissent à l'envi. Les minarets qui s'élèvent en pointe, les dômes arrondis et les diverses formes des habitations ajoutent encore à ses beautés naturelles. Le sépulcre d'un Saint Turc, nommé Hassan Baba, offre un objet infiniment pittoresque. Son minaret blanc s'élève au milieu d'une enceinte de noirs cyprès dont l'âge inspire un sentiment de vénération, et la chaîne sourcilienne du mont Olympe forme le fond du tableau. Ce tombeau est situé un peu en dehors du village, sur la route qui mène à Tempé et à Ampelakia. Tout inspire en ce lieu le plus vif intérêt au voyageur instruit, et la vivacité des teintes, et la régularité des lignes et des plans ; mais bien plus encore, le voisinage de la délicieuse Tempé, l'aspect du majestueux Olympe, et tous les souvenirs poétiques et historiques qui se rattachent à ces lieux célèbres.

Neither bad nor terrific. A rehash of AC 2
Format: Kindle
I purchased the book hoping it would be something completely new with Ezio, a unique story told by the author that was unrelated to the series. Sadly, it wasn't. This book was great in refreshing much of what happens in Assassin's Creed 2 and some of the memory assignments you can do in Brotherhood (and perhaps Revelations too, though at the time of writing this review, I've only barely dug into Revelations). But because I knew what to expect, I wasn't sitting on the edge of my seat to read it. The one tidbit I didn't like was that it seemed the author sometimes used too many commas. It's minor, but I frequently had to re-read some sentences to ensure it wasn't a run-on. I do like that there's a glossary in the back for the Italian that's frequently sprinkled in. All in all, if you've not played Assassins Creed 2, this would be great for quickly getting caught up (though I'd recommend the game instead for the visual/aural experience) or if you need a refresher. Otherwise, this might be a bit dull since you'll know what to expect.

better than the game
Format: Kindle
Assassins Creed Renaissance is a fantastic read whether you have played the game or not. It follows the story of assassins creed 2 to the letter but also adds more story elements that help answer some of the games little questions that were left unanswered. It is also a great read for anyone who hasn't played the game as it requires no prior knowledge of the assassins creed universe. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a more in depth look at the game or anyone who just wants a good book to read.
