Download or read book Illustrated Universal History written by Israel Smith Clare and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Universal History: A Clear and Concise History of All Nations, With a Full History of the United States to the Close of the First 100 Years of Our National Independence For convenience, though somewhat arbitrarily, the work is divided into three parts, each containing the record of an important era in the history of the world. Book First contains an historical account of the ancient world, embracing the period from the Creation of Man to the Fall of the Western Roman Empire, A. D. 476. Book Second embraces the history of the Middle Ages, comprising the time from the Fall of the Western Roman Empire to the Discovery of America, inclusive. Book, Third comprises a record of the modern period, describing the epoch from the Discovery of America to the present time. Great historical events have been arranged logically rather than chronologically, and great care has been taken to detail facts in proportion to their relative impor tance. The author has also taken great pains to omit what is irrelevant, and he has selected from the great mass of historical matter those events which have exerted a controlling influence upon the destinies of the world.

Download or read book Escape from Rome written by Walter Scheidel and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gripping story of how the end of the Roman Empire was the beginning of the modern world The fall of the Roman Empire has long been considered one of the greatest disasters in history. But in this groundbreaking book, Walter Scheidel argues that Rome's dramatic collapse was actually the best thing that ever happened, clearing the path for Europe's economic rise and the creation of the modern age. Ranging across the entire premodern world, Escape from Rome offers new answers to some of the biggest questions in history: Why did the Roman Empire appear? Why did nothing like it ever return to Europe? And, above all, why did Europeans come to dominate the world? In an absorbing narrative that begins with ancient Rome but stretches far beyond it, from Byzantium to China and from Genghis Khan to Napoleon, Scheidel shows how the demise of Rome and the enduring failure of empire-building on European soil launched an economic transformation that changed the continent and ultimately the world.

This book was released on 2005-06-21 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his long reign of near-absolute power, Caesar Augustus established the Pax Romana, which gave Rome two hundred years of peace and social stability, and established an empire that would endure for five centuries and transform the history of Europe and the Mediterranean. Ronald Mellor offers a collection of primary sources featuring multiple viewpoints of the rise, achievements, and legacy of Augustus and his empire. His cogent introduction to the history of the Age of Augustus encourages students to examine such subjects as the military in war and peacetime, the social and cultural context of political change, the reform of administration, and the personality of the emperor himself. Document headnotes, a list of contemporary literary sources, a glossary of Greek and Latin terms, a chronology, questions for consideration, and a selected bibliography offer additional pedagogical support.

Download or read book History of the Ancient Civilizations That Defined Our World written by Virtus Libris and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-19 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FranksThe Franks emerged during the decline of one of the world's most illustrious civilizations. Caught up in the winds of change, they fought both for and against the dying giant of the Roman Empire. The Franks were the cultural descendants of the ancient Gauls, who had long been a bogeyman to the Romans, after the collapse of Rome, they would endure as the living embodiment of ancient Rome. Through the Franks, the traditions and culture of the Roman Empire would continue during the Dark Ages, when all was lost to the ravages of barbarism in that period of time. Through the Franks, Rome would be re-consecrated under the auspices of Charlemagne and the creation of the Holy Roman Empire. The Franks would enter the historical record as one of many barbarian groups, and would evolve into one of the mightiest powers in Europe. It would be the legacy of the Franks that tore Europe apart during the First and Second World War, and it would be the legacy of the Franks that still divides many European nations. From antiquity to modern day, the Franks have had a profound impact on the shaping of the Western World.
