Three questions from reading:
1.
"Like any child, she looked out and across rather than in. She was more familiar with the vistas, the promising valleys with their hidden hamlets, the scope of the future arranged in terms of hills and light."
What does it mean by "the scope of the future arranged in terms of hills and light"?
2.
"Once a small dragon had become trapped in the bird-snaring nets slung in the uccellare. Bianca watched as the cook's adolescent grandson tried to cut it down and release it."
What is a "uccellare"? I can't find it in my dictionary...
3.
"Some windows were fitted with glass, but in most windows, squares of linen had been nailed to the shutter moldings,..."
What are shutter moldings? My dictionary does have the two words. But when they are put together, I can't imagine what a thing it is.
