Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the World, Vol. 2 of 4: From the Earliest Period to the Year of Our Lord 1783, With Particular Reference to the Affairs of Europe and Her Colonies Whence came that intellectual spirit, which dwells in man, and whither does it depart; that spirit, which measures the distances of the heavenly spheres; which resolves the apparently simple elements of Nature; which embraces the knowledge of all past time; governs the opinions and destinies of nations; and exercises a powerful influence on remote futurity? Man has stolen the lightning from the heavens; he has gained a dominion over the sea; he has measured the paths of comets, and traversed the lofty regions of the air; and yet, who is he? Whence is his origin, and what is the end of his being? To these inquiries, our senses make no reply. Abstract and metaphysical arguments, without end, have been devised, repeated, and compared; some more complete, others, less perfect; and yet, no result appears to be more certain, than that all is yet involved in doubt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the World, Vol. 2 of 4: From the Earliest Times Until the Year 1831 There are many to whom this characterizing of the Middle Ages will appear incorrect or common-place. For the barbarism of the Middle Ages has been portrayed and lamented so long and frequently already, that the desire for novelty and the love of paradoxes will not fail to find here subjects or at least attraction for panegyric. There are two particular causes that operate in favoring at the present day, the rise and welcome reception of ideas concerning the Middle Ages, which are directly opposed to all the preceding. The spirit of poetry predominant in modern literature, which has produced a partial preference for the Middle Ages, as they are so rich in poetical views; and the dissatisfaction, which may be just, with the degeneracy and the misfortune of our own time. But it may perhaps contribute to the mediation between the panegyrists and the censurers of the Middle Ages, if the idea of the word barbarism is first clearly understood.

Download or read book The Origins of the Second World War written by R. J. Overy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Origins of the Second World War explores the reasons why the Second World War broke out in September 1939 and not sooner, and why a European war expanded into world war by 1941. Richard Overy argues that this was not just 'Hitler's War' but one that had its roots and origins in the decline of the old empires of Britain and France and the rise of ambitious new powers in Germany, Italy and Japan. Any explanation of the outbreak of hostilities must be multinational in scope taking into account the basic instability of the international system that had still not recovered from the shocks of the Great War. In this third edition: The role of Italy in the approach to war has been re-evaluated; Overy addresses recent revelations about Soviet policy in the 1930s, particularly exploring Soviet military planning and preparations; Arguments about Chamberlain and his policy of appeasement are rethought and reassessed. This new edition has now been completely overhauled, updated, expanded and reset. With a comprehensive documents section, colour plates, Guide to Who's Who, and a Chronology, The Origins of the Second World War will provide an invaluable introduction to any student of this fascinating period."--Page 4 of cover
