This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Rome and the Popes in the Middle Ages, Vol. 2 The Emperors succeeding Constantine at once recognised the fundamental difference between the Church's spiritual sphere of action and the temporal power of the State. The whole period was permeated with the idea, formulated by hundreds of writers in antiquity, that the Church, founded solely for the spiritual salvation of mankind, pursues an object totally different from that of the State; that her existence is sustained by means of a different character, and that she reckons on other and superior forces to enable her to accomplish her task within the minds and hearts Of believers.

This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Rome and the Popes in the Middle Ages, Vol. 3 Such was the growth Of monasticism in the Church, that the tree spread its manifold branches over Italy, North Africa, and Spain; over the ancient Provinces Of the Roman Empire in the North, and over the newly founded States, even as far as Britain and Ireland. In the sixth century, in the monastery Of Bangor, on the east coast Of Ireland, three thousand monks, supporting them selves by manual labour, and, divided into seven choirs, kept up day and night an unceasing service Of song. In Gaul, in the beginning Of the fifth century, according to Sulpicius Severus, a contemporary, no less than two thousand monks assembled for the funeral Of the great founder of monasteries, St. Martin Of Tours. In Spain, St. Martin Of Bracara (braga), who worked among the Suevi of Galleccia, took as his example the monastic and apostolic ministry Of his namesake Of Tours.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Popes, Vol. 1: From the Close of the Middle Ages; Drawn From the Secret Archives of the Vatican and Other Original Sources The publication of a new History of the Popes from the Conclusion of the Middle Ages, drawn from original sources, cannot be considered a superfluous task. Apart from the Special interest attaching to the annals of this the most ancient and still most vigorous of dynasties, from a purely scientific point of view, a new work embodying the substance Of the numerous monographs of the last ten years, with additions and corrections from fresh original documents, seems urgently called for.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lives of the Popes in the Early Middle Ages, Vol. 1 The history of many of the later popes has indeed been well treated of by Ranke, whose work has long been before the English public.

Pastor, whose splendid biographies of the Popes of the later Middle Ages are now being published in an English translation by Kegan Paul co.

Book History the City of Rome  Vol  1

Download or read book History the City of Rome Vol 1 written by Ferdinand Gregorovius and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History the City of Rome, Vol. 1: In the Middle Ages Germany, of the appearance of which I was in the beginning unaware, obliged me to go over a great part of the book a second time. But the pleasure that the work afforded, and the delight of living in thought at least again in Rome - which, in spite of all the changes of recent years, exercises over me a fascination little less than it exercised over the pilgrims of the Middle Ages - made me regardless of hindrances, and over came every consideration. It is only now, while watching the progress of these volumes through the press, that a sense of my presumption in undertaking so ambitious a task has come home to me. In justice to myself, however, I must remind the reader that Gregorovius's History has been allowed to remain untranslated and practically unknown in England for more than thirty years; and, judging from the nature and length of the work, it seemed little likely any accomplished scholar, such as those who have given us Curtius or Mommsen, would come forward to give us the City of Rome in the Middle Ages. Two quali fications for the task also I at least possessed command of the necessary leisure, and an intense interest in the subject dealt with.

This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lives of the Popes in the Early Middle Ages, Vol. 4 IF edification were the sole, or even the principal, object which I had in view in undertaking to write the biographies of the Popes of the early Middle Ages, I might perhaps have hesitated about publishing the present series. But I wish to pursue a higher end than that of indulging in a style of historical writing which is supposed to be calculated to edify a certain type of mind. I would fulfil what I regard as a command laid upon me by the late glorious Head of the Church, and strive to make known the history of the Popes of Rome. And, as it was a cardinal maxim with Leo XIII. That truth would not injure the Church, I am convinced that he would not have had the Lives of some Popes written and the Lives of others left unrecorded, nor would he have wished to see some of their deeds blazoned forth and others buried in eternal oblivion.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ecclesiastical and Political History of the Popes of Rome, Vol. 1 of 3 But besides these duties towards the public, every translator is bound to fidelity by a duty which he owes to his author; for if there be any thing which may be truly called a man's own, it is surely the sum of his opinions on a most momentous and difficult subject, arrived at by years of patient toil and mature reflection, weighed with consummate impartiality, and enounced with historical calmness. Unfortunately, however, such is the tendency to postpone the real and permanent interest which all men have in truth and charity, and the most sacred rights of individuals, to the pursuit of some momentary and illusory party advantage, that the French translation is not only full of particular inaccuracies arising from ignorance or carelessness, but is infected with the sectarian spirit from which the original is so remarkably and so laudably exempt.

This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Popes, From the Close of the Middle Ages, Vol. 9: Drawn From the Secret Archives of the Vatican and Other Original Sources The strong tendency to satire which characterizes the Italian is especially marked among the Romans, whose voo cabulary is uncommonly rich in humorous and mordant ex pressions. A vacancy in the Holy See invariably gave them an opportunity for turning this vein of satire on the electors and candidates. On the present occasion this mischievous habit was carried beyond all previous limits. Like mush rooms after rain, lampoons and pasquinades sprang up in which first the dead Pope and his adherents, and then the electors of the future Pontiff were, without exception, attacked in unheard-of ways. It was now that the statue of Pasquino assumed its peculiar character as the rallying point for libellous utterances and raillery? The foreign envoys were amazed at the number of these pasquinades in prose and verse and in different languages, as well as at the freedom of speech prevailing in Rome.3 Among the Cardinals there were not a few whose conduct deserved to be lashed un'sparingly; but there were also many to whom failings and vices were attributed only for the sake of giving vent to scorn and ridicule.
