Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire It is stated on the title-page that the researches of recent commentators upon the Decline and Fall of the Roman Em pire are incorporated in the text of the present work. These additions are taken from my own notes and from those of Dean Milman and M. Guizot, inserted in the edition of the original work published in 1854-1855. In drawing up an Abridgment intended for younger students and general readers, it seemed desirable to interweave in the text the necessary cor rections and additions, instead of distracting their attention by reisrences to foot-notes, contradicting or modifying assertions in the text.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Roman Empire From Its Foundation to the Death of Marcus Aurelius 27 IT is well known that for the period of Roman history, which is of all its periods perhaps the most important - the first two centuries of the Empire - there exists no English handbook suitable for use in Universities and Schools. The consequence of this want in our educational course is that the knowledge of Roman history possessed by students, who are otherwise men of considerable attainments in classical literature, comes to a sudden end at the Battle of Actium. At least, their systematic knowledge ends there of. The subsequent history they know only isolated facts gathered at haphazard from Horace, J uvenal and Tacitus. This much-felt need will, it is hoped, be met by the present volume, which bridges the gap between the Student's Rome and the Student's Gibbon.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Roman Empire, From the Accession of Augustus to the End of the Empire of the West: Being a Continuation of the History of Rome The present volume is peculiarly valuable on many accounts. It embraces a period, the history of which exists in no accessible form, while its facts are of a most interest ing and important nature, as connected with the rise, and Spread, and in uence, and corruptions of the Christian church. It forms a connecting link between the times and nations properly called. Ancient, and those properly called modern, inasmuch as it displays the first inroads of the peoples and races destined gradually to mould the latter, upon the strength, and power, and sway of the former, and their final rise upon their ruins.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Romans Under the Empire, Vol. 5 Even when their conquests extended far and wide over islands and continents, Rome and Athens, Syra cuse and Sparta, still continued, unlike England and France, Russia and Turkey, in modern times, to be the names of cities, rather than of countries; all political privileges centred in them, and flowed thence with slow and measured pace to the more favoured of their subject communities. It is to this principle of their polity that we owe much of the intense national life, the deep-marked lines of national character, of faith, manners, and opinions, which severally distinguished them, and which seem to have received their form and pressure from the mould of the city walls in which they were first fused together. We have seen, however, in the last chapter, how the exclusive pretensions of the great est of these conquering cities were eventually modi fied by the exigencies of a wide extended sovereignty. The Roman empire claims at last, the first 111 civil ized antiquity, to be considered as in itself apolitical body, independent of its connexion with Rome, the residence of its chief governor. Our history becomes a review of the affairs of a vast unit, the aggregate of a multitude of smaller members, the sum of many combined elements. The title axed to it, the History of the Romans rather than of Rome, may serve to mark this important feature in its character; and accordingly it seemed most fitting to commence our survey of the condition of the Roman people under Augustus with a general view of the empire itself, and the social and political hands by which it was held together and compacted into one system. I have reserved for a second chapter the more Special examination of the features of the illustrious city from which it must still derive its chief interest, as Well as its celebrated name.
