Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Curiosum Urbis: A Guide to Ancient and Modern Rome Up to the time when Pius IX. Had occupied the papal throne for a period beyond the general average Of the reigns of Popes, Rome was as dis tant from London or Paris, calculating by time, as New York or St. Petersburg are now. She was to all intents and purposes a city Of the past - no railway crossed her territory, no telegraphic wire carried intelligence to other countries of what was occur ring within her walls. Without commerce, without communication, she was virtually cut Off from the rest Of mankind, and sunk to be the mere Sacristy of the Roman Catholic Church, and an interesting place of sojourn for students of art and antiquity, and for those few wealthy persons who had time and leisure at their command.

Download or read book Stories From the History of Rome Classic Reprint written by Mrs. Beesly and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From the History of Rome The writer of this little book was not satisfied that her children should hear nothing but fairy tales and the stories of nursery life, now so popular. But she could find nothing else fit to read to them. There are, indeed, plenty of story-books drawing their materials from history, and professing to be intended for children. But they are not suited to very young children. They abound in words and ideas which a child of four or six years old not only does not understand, but cannot be made to understand. The writer, however, believed that it was quite possible to put portions of Livy and Plutarch into language which should need little or no explanation even to children of that age. She accordingly made the experiment. One story after another was written and read to her little boys. Whenever she discovered that a word or idea was unintelligible to them, she took pains to simplify it. She found that they thoroughly enjoyed these old tales from Roman history, and liked to hear them repeated again and again.
