Download or read book Studies in British History and Politics Classic Reprint written by D. P. Heatley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in British History and Politics The Appendix of Notes - some of them supple mentary discussions - is considerable in proportion to the text. But their bulk might easily have been increased I have, for example, withheld references to the many passages in Bacon's writings on which the summary exposition of his politics (on pages 13 as distinguishable from his views on the problem of Church and State, is directly founded. Some of the Notes and discussions - such as those on the glittering generalities of the Declaration of Independence, on a standard for interpretation of the Great Charter, and on King and Crown in British history - will, I hope, have value even apart from their relation to the text.

Download or read book A Brief Survey of British History written by C. E. Snowden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Survey of British History: Comprising an Analysis and Commentary With Appendices Illustrative of the Points of Contact Between Great Britain, Her Colonies and Foreign Nations The original germ of the following compilation was a very short and simple analysis of a period of history made for the benefit of a class of small boys preparing for the Oxford Local Juniors Examination. In the course of a few years other periods were added, until a fairly complete analysis of the history of England had been obtained, sprinkled with a few occasional notes on points of the first importance. This was subsequently compared with and checked by several of the best school text-books, and expanded by information drawn from a variety of sources. When the material thus accumulated began to grow somewhat unwieldy, it occurred to me that I had perhaps got together a collection of notes which might save much time and trouble for others who were interested in the subject. An expert who was consulted was good enough to confirm this impression, and the result is now before the reader.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Representative British Orations With Introductions and Explanatory Notes The three small volumes here ofi'ered to the public have been prepared in the hope that they would be of some service in showing the great currents of political thought that have shaped the history of Great Britain during the past two hundred and fifty years. The effort has been not so much to make a collection of the most remarkable specimens of English elo quence, as to bring together the most famous of those oratorical utterances that have changed, or here tended to change, the course of English history. Eliot and Pym formulated the grievances against absolutism, a contemplation of which led to the revolution that established Anglican liberty on its present basis.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Two Lost Centuries of Britain This little book is the outgrowth of an earnest eu deavor to see clearly in my own mind, and for my own purposes, a part of the life of sixth century Britain. Almost at the beginning, I found that this implied much more, every decade hanging to the next like the links of a chain. Authority suggested authority; one problem tempted the inquirer to another. My mass of notes grew bulky, even portentous. The natural out let was by a careful consecutive statement, necessarily for the most part in narrative form and covering all that was really germane to the purpose in hand.

Download or read book Norman Britain Classic Reprint written by William Hunt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Norman Britain This little book does not profess to be a history of events. In a series of short essays, treating facts rather as illustrations than as invested with any inde pendent importance, I have endeavoured to describe how the Teutonic Northmen were brought under Romance influences before they conquered our Teu tonic land and, considering the Norman period as a crisis in the long story of our people, when a Romance element was violently introduced into the population itself and into every phase of its life, to show how this foreign element, overwhelming as it seemed at the time, consummated many changes already in progress, preserved much, destroyed little, and made no violent break in our history. I have also tried here and there, as my space would allow, to point out some of the effects of the Norman rule on our later history, both as to what we have kept and as to what we have cast aside as hindrances to our national development. As Mr. Freeman, besides his great works on the Norman Conquest and on the reign of William Rufus, has also published a hand book of the Norman period, it may seem that in writing this volume I have been fishing in his waters. It was, however, at his request, and with his generous invitation to me to make use of all he had written, that I undertook to attempt the subject that he has made his own. Such as my work is, it will, I how, be evident that it has not been done without some familiarity with original authorities acquired not for this occasion only. References to most of the authorities I have used will be found in the foot notes. Since the publication of the Introduction to English History by Professor S. R. Gardiner and Mr. J. B. Mullinger, brief notices of these authorities are no longer wanted, and for any longer account of them I have no space.
